Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a tea making device using filter paper for coffee, black tea, green tea, oolong tea, etc.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, a coffee tea maker using a conical filter paper or a squeezed conical filter paper whose pointed end has been removed and pinched is a container in which the filter paper is set in an open state, and the filtrate is poured into the bottom. Various types of tea cups with holes for drainage are known, but all of them have the disadvantage that they are bulky and require a considerable amount of space for transportation and storage. This is especially noticeable in cases.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) The object of this invention is to provide a convenient tea ware that requires only a small amount of space for transportation, storage, etc.

(Means for solving the problem) In order to solve the above problem, the proposed sencha utensil is:
It consists of a coiled filter paper holder that can be freely deformed from either one of a conical coil shape and a spiral coil shape to the other, and in the conical coil shape, a filter paper having an opening in a conical shape or a squeezed conical shape is inserted and held in the conical shape. It has a structure. The "coiled filter paper holder" in this proposal is made of an elastically deformable wire or plate material such as metal such as steel or mild steel, or synthetic resin, or a plastically deformable wire or plate material such as metal such as soft iron or cardboard. It is formed. Also, "can be transformed from either a conical coil shape or a spiral coil shape to the other" means that a conical coil shape made of any of the above materials can be transformed into a spiral coil shape, or from a spiral coil shape to a spiral coil shape. These include those that can be elastically deformed into a conical coil shape, and those that are previously formed into a spiral coil shape that can be plastically deformed into a conical coil shape. In addition, the "conical coil shape" of the coiled filter paper holder in this proposal includes a truncated conical coil shape, an elliptic conical coil shape, and a truncated elliptic conical coil shape, and the "swirl coil shape" refers to a coil shape excluding the central part. This term is used to include a spiral coil shape, an elliptical spiral coil shape, and an elliptical spiral coil shape excluding the center.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

(Example) Figures 1 to 3 show a coffee tea machine consisting of a coiled filter paper holder 1 and a pedestal 2. The filter paper holder 1 is made of thin steel wire and is formed into a truncated conical coil shape with the point removed in advance. However, when not in use, by pressing lightly in the axial direction, it is elastically deformed into a thin spiral coil shape as shown in Figures 2 and 2a.

The pedestal 2 includes an annular pedestal 3 having a conical inclined inner peripheral surface corresponding to the small diameter portion of the filter paper holder 1.
Two support arms 4, 4 protrude radially from the outer circumferential surface of.

During transportation and storage, if the filter paper holder 1 is held flat and packaged as shown in No. 2, 2a,
It doesn't have to be bulky. In use, the above cradle 2
is installed on top of the coffee cup C via the support arms 4, 4 as shown in the first figure, and then the filter paper holder 1 is elastically restored to the conical coil shape, and this is
As shown in the figure, it is inserted and supported within the annular pedestal 3 of the pedestal 2. After doing this, the conical filter paper F is folded into a conical shape that matches the conical shape of the filter paper holder 1, and is inserted and held in the filter paper holder 1. Coffee powder is placed in the filter paper F, and hot water is poured into the filter paper F.

Another embodiment shown in Figs. 4 and 5 is a coffee tea machine consisting of a filter paper holder 1a formed in advance into a truncated conical coil shape with thin steel wire, and the lowermost steel wire of the filter paper holder 1a is bent in the radial direction. The filter paper holder 1a is extended to form two support arms 4a, 4a, and in use, the filter paper holder 1a is elastically restored to a conical coil shape as shown in the fourth figure, and placed on top of the coffee cup Ca as shown in the fourth figure. It is placed on the support arms 4a, 4a.

Still another embodiment shown in FIG. 6 is a tea infusion device for making black tea, etc., consisting of a coiled filter paper holder 1b and a pedestal 2b, in which the pedestal 2b has a conical inclined inner circumferential surface corresponding to the large diameter portion of the filter paper holder 1b. An annular stand 3b having
Two support arms 4 tilt upward from the outer peripheral surface of the
b, 4b are protruded, and the other structure is substantially the same as the example of FIGS. 1-3.

Another embodiment shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 is a tea making device for tea, etc., which includes a filter paper holder 1c, and the filter paper holder 1c
The uppermost coil is bent and extended in the radial direction to form two support arms 4c, 4c, and the other structure is substantially the same as the example shown in FIGS.

Still another embodiment shown in FIG. 9 is a coffee tea machine consisting of a coiled filter paper holder 1d, and the filter paper holder 1d is formed into a spiral coil shape by cutting a spiral cut line 5d into a circular cardboard having a round hole in the center. At the same time, three support arms 4d extend radially from the outer periphery, and when used, the spiral coil is pulled out and plastically deformed into a truncated conical coil shape.

(Effects of the invention) In the tea cup using the filter paper of the present invention, the coiled filter paper holder holds the filter paper in a conical coil shape when used for making green tea, but can deform into a flat spiral coil shape when not in use. This makes it possible to transport and store large quantities, which is extremely advantageous economically.
