DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an egg breaking device used for breaking ordinary raw chicken eggs in an ordinary household.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to crack a raw chicken egg at home, grasp the egg with a hand, hit the side of the egg on the edge of a frying pan or the like to make a crack, and open the right and left with the thumb of both hands at the crack It is usual to remove the contents.

[0003]

However, when the egg is broken by hand, the contents are opened with the thumbs of both hands attached to the cracks, and the contents of the cracks are slightly removed at the ends of the thumbs of both hands. It was troublesome to wipe hands because it was attached and it was uncomfortable, and when children made their own fried eggs, they beat the eggshell into a frying pan or the like, but it was difficult to adjust the applied force. It is accompanied by anxiety.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an egg breaking device for solving the above-mentioned technical problem, in which bearings are provided at both ends of a lower portion of a main body, and a spring for expanding a wing portion slightly above a lower portion of the center of the main body. At the bottom of the main body, a blade that serves as an upper fulcrum for breaking the egg shell is attached downward just below the center, and a projection is attached to the left and right to pop out the empty shell of the egg. The wings are connected to the bearing of the main body by the axis of the wing plate, and the holding frame that holds the egg is attached to the connection of the wing plate, and the lower end of the holding frame is the blade that splits the lower part of the egg shell And a stabilizing plate having the following.

[0005]

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the splitter of the present invention, FIG.
FIG. 3 is a front view, FIG. 4 is a front view of opening the holding frame and sandwiching the eggs therein, FIG. 5 is a front view of the egg being beaten against a cooking table or the like in the state of FIG. Fig. 7 shows a front view of opening the holding frame fully and releasing the shell of the eggs, and FIG. And wings 3 on both sides.

The main body 2 of the splitter 1 is formed in an appropriate shape having a predetermined width, length and thickness that can be gripped by hand, and supports the shaft 10 of the wing plate 8 at both ends at the lower part of the main body. A window 6 is provided in the center of the lower part and slightly above the line of the shaft hole of the bearing 4 for accommodating the spring 5 for expanding the wing part 3, and the spring 5 is mounted therein.
At the bottom center, a blade 20 having a length of about 20 mm and a height of about 1 mm serving as an upper fulcrum for breaking an egg is attached downward, and a broken shell 16 of an egg can be flipped out on the left and right. A projection 7 having a predetermined width, length, and thickness, and having a curve 7 attached along the inclination of the egg shell 16 from the base to the tip of the main body 2 at a slight interval. is there.

The wing portion 3 is composed of a wing plate 8, a holding frame 12, and a stabilizer 13, and has the same shape on the left and right. The wing plate 8 is formed in an appropriate shape having an area and a thickness necessary for being opened by a human finger, and a shaft 10 corresponding to a shaft hole of the bearing 4 of the main body 2 is provided at both lower ends thereof, and near the outer center. The connecting frame 11 is used to connect to the holding frame 12. The holding frame 12 is made of an elastic thin band-shaped plastic, has an elliptical structure slightly smaller in diameter than the egg, and is connected to the stabilizer 13 below. I have. The stabilizer 13 keeps the whole of the splitter 1 stable when the wing 3 is closed. The flat surface of one wing is formed in a U-shape, and is connected to the lower part of the holding frame 12 at right angles. The shape of the concave part has a length of about 20 at the tip of a thin elastic plastic plate.
The blade plate 14 with a blade 15 having a height of about 1 mm
Only the part opposite to 5 is connected.

Next, the egg splitter 1 formed as described above
The following describes the case of breaking a commercially available chicken egg. First, hold the knob 9 of the wing plate 8 of the splitter 1 with a fingertip, and pinch it all the way inward. When the user inserts the knob 9 and then releases the knob 9, the egg 16 is closed by the action of the spring 5 and the egg 16 is sealed in the holding frame 12.
The egg 16 acts to hold the egg 16 in contact with the upper and lower blade surfaces.
Is traveling slightly downward, or both the left and right blades 1
Check if 5 matches. Thereafter, the user holds the main body 2 by hand and gently taps it on a hard flat surface of a cooking table, a cutting board 19, or the like 19 with the stabilizer 13 down. At this time, due to the weight of the egg 16, the portion of the blade 15 traveling downwards bites into the bottom 18 of the egg, and the upper blade 20 as a fulcrum causes a crack and cracks. When the user again holds the knob 9 and opens the holding frame 12 appropriately on the container, the contents 17 of the egg naturally flow out. After the spill has been completed, the knob 9 can be inserted at a stretch to hold the holding frame 12.
Is fully opened, and the shell 16 is flipped back by the action of the projection 7 to be flipped out and is discharged at a stroke.

[0009]

According to the present invention, the above-mentioned structure is provided.
When the egg is broken by hand, a small amount of `` slimy '' adheres to the tip of the thumb of both hands and it causes discomfort, so there is no need to wipe the hand, and when children make their own fried eggs, By simply tapping the egg splitter against a worktop or the like, the egg's own weight is added and the egg splitter can be easily and safely split, and the empty shell after the split can be processed without directly touching it.
