Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention patent relates to the field of storage container technology, specifically to a storage jar with a spoon compartment. Background Technology

[0002] Storage jars are common storage containers used to store various items, such as food, medicine, and even some chemical reagents. There are many types of storage jars; the most common ones consist of a jar body and a lid. After placing food, medicine, etc., into the jar body and closing the lid, the items inside are effectively isolated, preventing dust and providing some preservation.

[0003] Most existing storage containers rely solely on sealing rings for the seal between the lid and the container body. This allows the lid to easily detach, causing spillage. Furthermore, the scoop is often placed directly inside the container or on the inner top wall of the lid, leading to hygiene issues and increasing the risk of spoilage. Therefore, this invention provides a storage container with a separate scoop compartment and locking mechanism to address these problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and address the issues of traditional storage containers where scoops are typically placed inside the container or on the top wall of the lid, which is unhygienic, and where the lid can easily detach from the container, causing spillage, this invention provides a storage container with a scoop compartment. The specific technical solution is as follows: A storage container with a spoon compartment includes a container body, which comprises a container body and a lid. The lid has a rotatable spoon compartment and a handle. The handle has a slider and a rotating base. The spoon compartment has an arc-shaped groove corresponding to the position of the slider. The handle is linked to the spoon compartment via the slider and the arc-shaped groove. The lid has a locking element with a groove. The rotating base is placed within the groove. The inner side wall of the container has a pressure block corresponding to the position of the locking element. The lid rotates back and forth within the groove via the rotating base, causing the locking element to press against or disengage from the pressure block of the container body, thus locking or separating the container body and lid.

[0005] Preferably, the can lid has a through groove reserved at the position corresponding to the pressure block; the can lid has a W-shaped slide rail provided below the locking member.

[0006] Preferably, the locking component further includes a spring slide and a wedge protrusion; the spring slide is fixed to the inner top wall of the locking component by a spring; the spring slide is slidably connected to the W-shaped slide rail; the wedge protrusion is disposed on the side near the pressure block; the wedge protrusion passes through the through groove and presses against or disengages from the pressure block of the tank.

[0007] Preferably, the handle is rotatably connected to the can lid via a first pivot.

[0008] Preferably, the rear end of the spoon compartment is provided with a rotating shaft connecting lug; the spoon compartment is rotatably connected to the can lid via a second rotating shaft.

[0009] Preferably, the spoon compartment is provided with a scooping spoon.

[0010] Preferably, the wedge protrusion is positioned slightly lower than the pressure block.

[0011] Preferably, a torsion spring is provided at the connection between the spoon compartment, the handle, and the lid.

[0012] More preferably, the can lid is also provided with an elastic sealing ring.

[0013] When the handle is lifted upwards, the front end of the scoop compartment is lifted upwards. At the same time, the base is rotated, causing the locking part to move backwards. The spring slide reaches point a on the W-shaped slide rail, and the wedge protrusion disengages from the bottom of the pressure block. At this time, the can body and the can cover are separated. When the handle is pressed down, it causes the front end of the scoop compartment to close downwards. At the same time, the base rotates and pushes the locking element forward. The spring slide reaches point b on the W-shaped slide rail, and the wedge protrusion presses into the bottom of the pressure block. At this time, the can body and the can cover are locked.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. This invention achieves an independent spoon compartment linked to the handle by setting a slider on the handle and a corresponding arc-shaped groove in the spoon compartment. On the one hand, it can separate the scooping spoon from the contents of the storage container, which is more hygienic; on the other hand, the contents of the container can be taken out without the lid being fully opened, which is more convenient. 2. This invention uses locking components and pressure blocks, combined with an elastic sealing ring, to enable the opening and closing of the can body and the can lid, making it difficult for the can lid to detach from the can body and preventing the contents of the can from spilling out.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The specific implementation of a storage container with a spoon compartment provided by the present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a storage container with a spoon compartment includes a storage container body 1, which includes a container body 11 and a lid 12; the lid 12 is rotatably provided with a spoon compartment 13 and a handle 14; a scooping spoon 15 is provided in the spoon compartment 13; the lid 12 is provided with a locking member 16, and a pressure block 111 is provided on the inner side wall of the container body 11 corresponding to the position of the locking member 16.

[0019] Preferably, such as Figure 5 As shown, the handle 14 is provided with a slider 141 and a rotating base 142, and the handle 14 is rotatably connected to the can lid 12 via a first rotating shaft. The spoon compartment 13 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 131 corresponding to the position of the slider 141, and the rear end of the spoon compartment 13 is provided with a rotating shaft connecting lug 132. The spoon compartment 13 is rotatably connected to the can lid 12 via a second rotating shaft. Figure 4 As shown, the handle 14 is linked with the spoon compartment 13 through the slider 141 and the arc-shaped groove 131.

[0020] Preferably, the can lid 12 has a through groove 121 reserved at the position corresponding to the pressure block 111; the can lid 12 is provided with a W-shaped slide rail 17 below the locking member 16; Preferably, the locking member 16 further includes a spring slide 161, a wedge protrusion 162, and a groove 163; the rotating base 142 is placed in the groove 163; the spring slide 161 is fixed to the inner top wall of the locking member 16 by a spring, thereby realizing the elastic up-and-down movement of the spring slide 161 relative to the locking member 16; the bottom of the spring slide 161 is slidably connected to the W-shaped slide rail 17; the wedge protrusion 162 is disposed on the side near the pressure block 111, and its position is slightly lower than the position of the pressure block 111, such as... Figure 6As shown; the inclined wedge protrusion 162 passes through the through groove 121 and is pressed or disengaged from the pressure block 111 of the tank body 11.

[0021] Preferably, in order to ensure a stable lock between the tank body 11 and the tank cover 12, at least two sets of the pressure block 111 and the locking member 16 are provided and are symmetrically distributed.

[0022] Preferably, torsion springs are provided at the connection points of the spoon compartment 13, the handle 14 and the can lid 12.

[0023] More preferably, the can lid 12 is also provided with an elastic sealing ring to increase the sealing between the can body 11 and the can lid 12 and ensure the freshness of the contents of the can.

[0024] In use, when the handle 14 is lifted upwards, the front end of the spoon compartment 13 is simultaneously lifted upwards. The rotating base 142 of the handle 14 drives the elastic slide 161 of the locking element 16 to move backwards along the W-shaped slide rail 17 until the spring slide 161 reaches point a on the W-shaped slide rail 17. At this time, the wedge protrusion 162 disengages from the bottom of the pressure block 111, and the can body 11 and the can lid 12 are separated. Figure 7 As shown; When the handle 14 is pressed down, it simultaneously causes the front end of the spoon compartment 13 to close downwards. The rotating base 142 of the handle 14 pushes the elastic slide 161 of the locking element 16 forward along the W-shaped slide rail 17 until the spring slide 161 reaches point b on the W-shaped slide rail 17. At this time, the wedge protrusion 162 presses into the bottom of the pressure block 111, and the can body 11 and the can lid 12 are locked together. Figure 8 As shown.

[0025] It is worth noting that the purpose of setting the spring to fix the elastic slide 161 is twofold: firstly, it ensures that the elastic slide 161 always slides in contact with the top of the W-shaped slide rail 17 during the sliding process; secondly, the spring force increases the friction between the elastic slide 161 and the W-shaped slide rail 17, thereby increasing the stability of the elastic slide 161 and preventing it from moving easily when it is at point a or point b, so that the handle 14 can fall or rise autonomously.

[0026] This invention utilizes a slider on the handle and a corresponding arc-shaped groove in the spoon compartment to create an independent spoon compartment that is linked to the handle. This allows for the separation of the spoon from the contents of the storage container, improving hygiene. Furthermore, the contents can be removed without fully opening the lid, enhancing convenience. Additionally, the invention incorporates locking components, pressure blocks, and an elastic sealing ring to control the opening and closing of the container and lid, preventing the lid from easily detaching and ensuring the freshness of the contents while preventing spillage.
