Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea]

0001

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a teapot, etc. whose main body is tilted to pour out the contents from a spout.

0002

[Conventional technology]

Traditionally, with kettles, teapots, tea pourers, etc., you hold the handle with one hand and tilt the main body to open the spout. Hot water, tea, etc. are poured into a bowl, etc., but when using a kettle or pouring tea, the hand holding the handle does not cover the lid.

You need to hold the lid. However, if you use both hands, hold the teapot etc. within reach. The area is limited. There were other inconveniences.

0003 This invention was made in view of the above points, and it is possible to prevent the lid from falling with only one hand. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a teapot, etc., which allows the contents to be poured out. This invention In addition to teapots, tea kettles, tea pourers, etc. can be used to squeeze the handle and pour out the contents from the spout.

0004

[Technical problem to be solved]

In order to achieve the above purpose, the teapot etc. according to the present invention has a spout located around the opening of the main body. The side part is formed to protrude toward the opening side and engages with the edge of the closed lid to close the book. Regardless of the slope for dispensing body contents, a protrusion is provided to prevent the lid from falling. It is characterized by

[0005] In addition, the protruding portion may be continuous in an arc shape on the spout side portion of the opening periphery of the main body. , a plurality of protrusions are arranged spaced apart along an arc on the pouring side portion of the opening periphery of the main body. It's okay to have one.

[0006]

[Effect] When the lid is closed, the edge of the lid on the spout side engages with the protrusion on the main body and is held in place. Therefore, even if the main body is tilted to pour out the contents, the lid will not fall off. .

[0007] Even if the protrusions are continuous in an arc shape, multiple protrusions may be spaced apart along the arc. A similar effect can be obtained also when

[0008]

【Example】

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

[0009] Figure 1 is a perspective view showing an example of the case where the present invention is applied to a teapot, and Figure 2 is a sectional view. Ru.

0010 According to the present invention, a portion of the peripheral edge 3 of the opening 2 of the main body 1 of the teapot on the side of the spout 4 has a A protrusion 6 is integrally formed in the opening 2 to engage in an arc shape with the edge of the lid 5 when the lid 5 is closed. . The protruding width and length of the protruding portion 6 are such that the protruding width and length of the protruding portion 6 are determined when the lid is closed and engaged with the main body. Even if the lid is tilted to pour out the contents, the lid can be prevented from falling off. It is set to about. In order to enable opening and closing of the lid 5, one half of the circumference of the rim 3 is It must be less than

[0011] Therefore, when using this teapot, hold the handle 7 with one hand and pour the tea into a bowl. Even if the lid 5 is tilted by more than 180 degrees, the lid 5 will not fall off. In other words, You don't have to use the other fingers of the hand that holds the handle of the teapot or press the lid with the other hand. Prevents the lid from falling off. Therefore, you can hold the teapot far away with one hand without worrying about the lid falling off. You can move it around and pour tea into a bowl.

0012 In the above embodiment, the protrusion 6 is continuous in an arc shape, but as shown in FIG. A plurality of protrusions 6a, 6 are provided on the opening side portion of the opening periphery 3 of the main body 1 along the circular arc. Similar effects can be obtained when a is provided.

[0013] Also, instead of using the teapot mentioned above, you can easily hold the lid with the fingers of one hand that holds the handle. It can also be applied to other lidded containers such as kettles and tea pourers. Figure 4 shows An example of a kettle to which the present invention is applied is shown. FIG. 5 is a plan view showing only the opening periphery. . The same reference numerals as in FIG. 1 indicate the same members.

[0014]

[Effect of the idea]

As mentioned above, according to the teapot etc. according to the present invention, the closed lid touches the edge of the opening of the main body. Since the outlet side part is engaged and held with the main body, the main body does not tilt when dispensing the contents. The lid will not fall off even if Therefore, you can safely hold the teapot etc. in one hand and read the contents with confidence. Can pour things out.
