Description

Environmentally friendly tableware

The invention relates to an environmentally-friendly tableware, in particular to an environmentally-friendly tableware which can be arbitrarily replaced according to the needs of the user.

With the increasing emphasis on environmental protection and food safety issues in recent years, consumers have begun to reduce the use of disposable tableware that has doubts about hygiene and is not environmentally friendly, and to carry disposable tableware for use. However, due to the variety of tableware, Instead, there are different types of tableware according to different foods, such as chopsticks for taking small solid foods, spoons for liquid foods such as soups, and other such as forks, clips, knives, etc. Therefore, consumers are not likely to carry all kinds of tableware with them, but only choose one or both of them, so they often encounter situations where the tableware they carry is not suitable. For example, most people in Taiwan will carry chopsticks and spoons. However, if there is a medium-sized food with ribs in the meal, it must be used as a clip with chopsticks, so it is easy to cause the food to fall without being pinched, or the fruit can be picked up with a spoon or chopsticks appear. The fork forks the fruit...the phenomenon.

In view of the shortcomings derived from the above-mentioned conventional methods, the inventor of the present invention has improved and innovated, and after years of painstaking research, he finally succeeded in research and development of the environmentally-friendly tableware that can be used to replace the tableware according to the user's needs.

The specific embodiments are described below to illustrate the embodiments of the invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

1 to 3, which is a first embodiment of the environmentally-friendly tableware of the present invention. In the embodiment, the environmental protection tableware of the present invention mainly comprises a main body 1 and at least two operating elements 2, wherein the main body 1 includes two controls. The elastic connecting element 12 is a spring, and the two ends of the spring are respectively provided with external threads 121, and the control elements 11 are all a hollow tube body. The inner tube walls of the two ends of the control elements 11 are respectively provided with a pair of connecting units, and the mating units are internal threads 111 provided in the inner wall of the control unit 11.

One end of each of the operating elements 2 is provided with a fixing unit, the fixing unit is a thread 21 which is disposed outside the outer edge surface of the operating elements 2, and the other end of the operating element 21 opposite to the fixed unit is The operating portion 22 is a chopstick, a spoon, a fork or a knife. Further, the plug sleeve 13 is provided with a connecting unit 131, and the connecting units 131 are all externally threaded.

In the embodiment, when the clip function is used, the external threads of the two ends of the elastic connecting element 12 are respectively locked with the internal threads 111 of one of the control elements 11 to fix the control element 11 and the elastic connecting element 12, Then, the control element 11 is locked with respect to the internal thread 111 of the other end of the elastic connecting element 12 and the external thread 21 of the operating element 2, so that the user can pass the control element 11 or the operating element 2 With the operating portion 22 as a clamp for holding the food, the operating member 2 or the control member 11 which is pressed by the elasticity of the elastic connecting member 12 can be returned to the original position by releasing the operating member 2 or the control member 11. To let go of the food being held.

In addition, since the control element 11 of the embodiment is a hollow tube body, the control elements 11 can be directly used as a straw, and when the spoon function is to be used in the embodiment, only one operation part 22 is required to be a spoon. The external thread 21 of the operating element 2 and the internal thread 111 of one of the control elements 11 of one of the control elements 11 can be locked. When the chopstick function is to be used in this embodiment, only the two operating portions 22 need to be operated as chopsticks. The external thread 21 of the component 2 and the internal thread 111 of one of the two control elements 11 are locked to form a pair of chopsticks. When the embodiment is to use the knife and fork function, an operating portion 22 is the operating element 2 of the knife. The external thread 21 is locked with the internal thread 111 of one end of the control element 11, and then the external thread 21 of the operating element 2 of the operating part 2 is locked by an operating part 22 and the internal thread 111 of one end of the control element 11 In addition, when the chopstick, knife or fork function is used in the embodiment, the internal thread 111 of the other end of the control element 11 locked with the external thread 21 of the operating element 2 is connected to the plug 13 The unit 131 is locked, Tangtangshuishui meal or avoid dust from entering the tubular body 11 of the control element.

In addition, referring to FIG. 4 to FIG. 5, in another embodiment of the present invention, in the embodiment, the elastic connecting component 12 is an elastic material of plastic rubber, and both ends of the elastic connecting component 12 have one for the same. The outer wall of the control element 11 is embedded in the insertion hole 122, and the inner wall of the inner wall of the second control element 11 is provided with an internal thread 111. When the embodiment uses a straw, a chopstick, a spoon and a knife and fork function, the operation mode is before An embodiment is the same, and when the clip function is to be used in the embodiment, the two control elements 11 are respectively embedded in the insertion holes 122 at both ends of the elastic connecting member 12, and the two control elements 11 are provided with internal threads 111. One end faces in the same direction, and then the internal thread 111 of the control element 11 and the external thread 21 of the operating element 2 are locked to form a clip structure.

Referring to FIG. 6 , in another embodiment of the present invention, in the embodiment, the elastic connecting component 12 is a spring, and the two control components 11 are disposed on a surface opposite to the other control component 11 with a clamping surface 112. The operating portion 22 of the component 2 is a chopstick. When the embodiment is used, the two ends of the elastic connecting component 12 are respectively connected with the mating units of one end of the control components 11 to fix the control component 11 and the elastic connecting component 12, Then, the control unit 11 is connected to the fixed unit of the other end of the elastic connecting element 12 and the fixed unit of the operating element 2, and at this time, the two control elements 11 are opposed to the clamping surface 112. The opposing clamping surface 112 of the second control element 11 of the present embodiment is formed by the elasticity of the spring of the elastic connecting element 12 to form a crab claw which can crush a crab shell or a walnut shell, and the operating portion 22 is used as a chopstick. The operating element 2 acts as a crab shell or a walnut shell.. The hard shell is crushed and the internal food is removed.

As described above, the environmentally-friendly tableware of the present invention can be used as a straw by using a control element alone, or by connecting the control element to an operation element of a different operation unit 22 to form a chopstick, a spoon, a fork, a table knife, and the like. Or connecting two tablespoons by elastic connecting elements to form a clip structure, or connecting two operating elements having clamping surfaces by elastic connecting elements to form a crab claw structure, so as to replace the corresponding tableware according to different foods, Moreover, the method for forming the tableware by the splicing method has the advantages of being smaller in size and convenient to carry than the method of carrying the chopsticks, the spoon, the fork, the table knife, and the clip and the crab claw at the same time. Therefore, the environmental protection tableware of the invention is more conventionally known. The technology has obvious novelty and progress, so the invention patent application is filed according to law.

The detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention is intended to be limited to the scope of the invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. The patent scope of this case.
