Coconut opener

Abstract

A coconut opener, comprising: a handle (1), a round tube (2) and a spring (3), wherein the bottom of the handle (1) is provided with a connecting end (4), the round tube (2) is sleeved inside the spring (3), and the length of the spring (3) is less than the length of the round tube (2); one end of the spring (3) is fixedly connected to one end of the round tube (2) and is fixedly connected to the handle (1) by means of the connecting end (4); and the other end of the spring (3) is a cutting end (5), and the other end of the round tube (2) is an opening end (6). By means of the combination of the spring (3) and the round tube (2), since the spring (3) is shorter than the round tube (2), when the opening end of the round tube (2) reaches the endocarp, the spring (3) is still located in the mesocarp. Given that the endocarp is relatively hard and the mesocarp is thick and fibrous, continuously rotating the handle (1) can make the downward spiral speed of the spring (3) greater than the downward speed of the opening end (6). As a result, the spring (3) is stretched and deformed, thus quickly generating a large spring force. Under the action of the spring force, the pressure generated by the opening end (6) on the endocarp is also rapidly increased, thereby achieving the purpose of quickly opening the endocarp.

Description

Coconut hole opener Technical field:

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of mechanical tools, and particularly relates to a coconut hole opener. Background technology:

[0002] Coconut is a plant-based organic fruit that is a specialty of Hainan. Coconut water is rich in protein, fat, and multiple vitamins, and is sweet and thirst-quenching. However, coconuts have a hard shell that is not suitable for opening holes. From the inside out, a coconut is composed of coconut water, coconut meat, and coconut peel. The coconut peel is composed of the endocarp, mesocarp, and exocarp from the inside out. The exocarp is thin, the mesocarp is thicker and fibrous, and the endocarp is thinner and harder than wood. Existing methods for opening coconuts to extract coconut water generally use knives to split them, or other hole openers to open holes. However, using knives and manual cutting is unsafe, and other hole openers are time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inconvenient, and are not suitable for consumers' home hole opening needs.

[0003] Utility model content:

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the above-mentioned prior art and provide a coconut hole opener, which can not only quickly open a hole, but also save time and labor, and meet the daily hole opening needs of households.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is solved by the following technical solution: a coconut hole opener, comprising a handle, a round tube and a spring, wherein a connecting end is provided at the bottom of the handle, the round tube is sleeved in the spring, and the length of the spring is shorter than the length of the round tube; one end of the spring is fixedly connected to one end of the round tube, and is fixedly connected to the handle through the connecting end; the other end of the spring is a cutting end, and the other end of the round tube is a hole opening end.

[0006] Furthermore, the cutting end is needle-shaped or blade-shaped.

[0007] Furthermore, the cutting end is oriented with the slope facing downward.

[0008] Furthermore, the opening end is serrated, conical, or has a blade shape of at least one leaf.

[0009] Furthermore, a through hole is opened in the middle of the top of the handle, and the through hole and the circular tube are on the same axis.

[0010] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: since the coconut endocarp is made of wood, even if the perforated end of the circular tube rests on the surface of the endocarp to perform perforation, it is impossible to quickly pass through the endocarp and achieve the purpose of perforation. The utility model adopts a spring and a circular tube combination. Since the spring is shorter than the circular tube, when the perforated end of the circular tube reaches the endocarp, the spring is still in the mesocarp. In view of the fact that the endocarp is relatively hard and the mesocarp is thick and fibrous, the handle is continuously rotated, and the speed at which the spring spirals downward is greater than the speed at which the perforated end downward is downward, causing the spring to be stretched and deformed, thereby quickly generating a larger spring force. Under the action of the spring force, the pressure produced by the perforated end on the endocarp also increases rapidly, thereby achieving the purpose of quickly opening the endocarp. Finally, after the perforated end passes through the endocarp, the perforated end again quickly passes through the coconut meat under the pressure of the spring, thereby achieving the purpose of perforation. Description of the drawings:

[0011] FIG1 is a schematic structural diagram of a coconut hole opener according to the present invention.

[0012] Among them: 1-handle, 2-round tube, 3-spring, 4-connecting end, 5-cutting end, 6-opening end, 7-through hole. Specific implementation method:

[0013] The present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0014] The utility model discloses a coconut hole opener, which comprises a handle 1, a round tube 2 and a spring 3. A connecting end 4 is provided at the bottom of the handle 1, the round tube 2 is sleeved in the spring 3, and the length of the spring 3 is shorter than that of the round tube 2. One end of the spring 3 is fixedly connected to one end of the round tube 2 and is fixedly connected to the handle 1 through the connecting end 4. The other end of the spring 3 is a cutting end 5, and the other end of the round tube 2 is a hole opening end 6.

[0015] The preferred cutting end 5 of the present invention is needle-shaped or blade-shaped. The opening end 6 is sawtooth-shaped, cone-shaped, or blade-shaped with at least one leaf or more.

[0016] 1 , the cutting end 5 is needle-shaped, and the opening end 6 is sawtooth-shaped. The working steps of the hole opener of the utility model are as follows: first, hold the handle 1, insert the saw teeth into the coconut exocarp, rotate the handle 1, the saw teeth cut the exocarp and enter the mesocarp, and then the needle-shaped cutting end 5 of the spring 3 is inserted into the exocarp; secondly, continue to rotate the handle 1, the saw teeth cut the mesocarp downward to open a hole, and the needle-shaped cutting end 5 spirally cuts the mesocarp downward. Since the spring 3 is shorter than the round tube 2, when the saw teeth reach the endocarp, the spring 3 is still in the mesocarp, and the endocarp is relatively hard and the mesocarp is thicker and more fibrous, continue to rotate the handle 1, the speed of the spring 3 spiraling downward is greater than the speed of the saw teeth downward, causing the spring 3 to be stretched and deformed, thereby quickly generating a large spring force; again, continue to rotate the handle 1, under the action of the spring 3 quickly generating a large spring force, the pressure generated by the saw teeth on the endocarp is also rapidly increased, thereby achieving the purpose of quickly opening the endocarp; finally, after the saw teeth pass through the endocarp, the saw teeth quickly pass through the coconut meat under the action of the spring force, thereby achieving the purpose of opening a hole.

[0017] The preferred direction of the cutting end 5 of the present invention is an inclined surface downward. When the spring 3 spirals downward to cut the mesocarp, since the mesocarp is very soft and thick in fiber, the needle-shaped or blade-shaped cutting end 5 is easier to insert into the mesocarp for cutting. Secondly, based on the principle of labor-saving on the inclined surface, using the cutting end 5 with an inclined surface downward to cut the mesocarp is more time-saving and labor-saving.

[0018] The utility model is preferably provided with a through hole 7 in the middle of the top of the handle 1, and the through hole 7 is on the same axis as the circular tube 2. After the hole is opened, the hole opener is removed from the coconut and the coconut peel remaining in the hole opener is taken out through the through hole 7.

[0019] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention itself. As shown in FIG1 , the connection end 4 of the present invention is integral with the handle 1, but can also be separately connected to the handle 1. When the connection end 4 is separately connected to the handle 1, the connection end 4 is embedded in the bottom of the handle 1. The opening end 6 of the present invention is integral with the circular tube 2, but can also be separately connected to the circular tube 2. When the connection is separate, the opening end 6 and the circular tube 2 are fixedly connected by a connection method such as a thread. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
