Definitions
- This invention refers to a disposable spoon for stirring drinks with sugar substitute (such as black coffee, cappuccino, tea etc.) which has a sugar substitute tablet inserted in the part used for stirring.
- sugar substitute such as black coffee, cappuccino, tea etc.
- the catering establishments When serving drinks with an artificial sweetener, the catering establishments usually offer large packages of sugar substitute tablets containing 100 or more tablets.
- the other standard type of serving sugar substitute tablets refers to small packaging where each tablet is packed separately (similarly to the sugar for the espresso coffee).
- This invention is created in order to improve the level of serving drinks with an artificial sweetener, by joining the sugar substitute tablet and the spoon into one entity.
- This invention refers to a disposable spoon made of plastic material.
- the artificial sweetener is inserted in the part used for stirring. While stirring the beverage, the sugar substitute tablet dissolves and thus sweetens the beverage.
- the part used for stirring, with the inserted sugar substitute tablet is wrapped up in a plastic sheet, which can be removed before usage.
- the protective plastic sheet keeps the part of the spoon used for stirring intact and clean. It can be removed by simply pulling the plastic sheet in the direction opposite to the spoon handle.
- the other possible packaging type would be wrapping up the entire spoon in the plastic sheet.
- Part 1 protective plastic sheet (cross-hatched areas refer to the welded spots)
- Part 2 part of the plastic sheet designed to be seized during removal process
- Figure 4- plan of whole spoon wrapped in a protective plastic sheet
- Figure 5- isometric spoon drawing
- Part 5 - slit Figure 5 shows the isometric spoon drawing
- Part 1, 2, and 3 represent a separate entity produced out of plastic material.
- Sugar substitute tablet is inserted in the spoon produced in this manner.
- the dimensions of the area in which the sugar substitute tablet is inserted are equal to the dimensions of the sugar substitute tablet ( Figure 5, Part 4) with one exception - the diameter of the sugar substitute tablet is 0.1 mm greater than the diameter of the area in which the sugar substitute tablet is inserted.
- the slit ( Figure 5, Part 5) has to be widened to prevent the damaging of the sugar substitute tablet.
- the slit is reduced and the sides of the part used for stirring ( Figure 5, part 3) have the effect of a spring on the sugar substitute tablet securing it in the abovementioned area.
- the widening and reducing of the slit is achieved by pulling the conical tool in and out (Figure 2, part 2) of a slit, as shown in Figure 2.
- the plastic sheet is wrapped around the part used for stirring with the inserted sugar substitute tablet and around the spoon neck ( Figure 5, part 3 and part 2).
- the process of packaging is performed by means of a plastic sheet welding, i.e. two plastic sheets of the approximately same size, covering the upper and the lower side, are welded.
- the welding process is conducted with the heaters shaped to weld the plastic sheet as seen in Figure 3, which represents the welded spot (Part 1) and the spot designed to be seized during removal process (Part 2).
- the spoon designed according to this invention can take on different shapes, sizes and colours, dependable on the type of a desired drink (black coffee, cappuccino, tea etc.).
