[0044] As a product that is frequently used in people's daily life, the convenience of use of rice spoons is the key to improving their product quality.

[0045] In the actual use of the rice spoon, after the user has scooped the rice with the rice spoon, he or she usually puts the rice spoon directly on the table. The rice on the rice spoon is likely to breed bacteria after contacting the table, affecting the user's health and safety.

[0046] Based on the above considerations, in order to solve the above problems, please refer to Figures 1 to 7, a rice spoon 100 is provided in one or more embodiments of the present application, and the support component 12 can be extended through the button component 13, and then the support component 12 and the spoon handle 11 can cooperate to place the spoon body 10 in mid-air on the table, thereby preventing the rice on the rice spoon 100 from contacting the table, so as to ensure the hygiene and safety of the user.

[0047] Specifically, referring to Figures 1 and 2, the rice spoon 100 includes a spoon body 10, a spoon handle 11, a support assembly 12, and a button assembly 13. Among them, one end of the spoon handle 11 is equipped with the spoon body 10. The spoon body 10 can be used to hold food, such as rice, porridge, etc. The spoon handle 11 is used for the user to hold and use.

[0048] Further, referring to FIGS. 1 to 7 , the two sides of the spoon handle 11 opposite to each other along the first direction are respectively recessed to form a first mounting groove 111 and a second mounting groove 112, and a connecting hole 113 is formed through the bottom wall of the second mounting groove 112 along the first direction to communicate with the first mounting groove 111. The support assembly 12 has a first end 124 and a second end 125 opposite to each other. The first end 124 is matched in the first mounting groove 111 and is configured to form a rotation fulcrum, and the second end 125 can be controlled to rotate around the rotation fulcrum until it extends out or is received in the first mounting groove 111. The button assembly 13 is movably matched in the second mounting groove 112, and at least part of the button assembly 13 is movably penetrated in the connecting hole 113. Among them, at least part of the button assembly 13 can be controlled to move along the first direction and extend into the first mounting groove 111 through the connecting hole 113 to abut and push the second end 125 to rotate around the rotation fulcrum to extend out of the first mounting groove 111.

[0049] It is understandable that after the user uses the rice scoop 100 to scoop up the rice, by pressing the button assembly 13, at least part of the button assembly 13 can be moved along the first direction until it passes through the connecting hole 113 and extends into the first mounting groove 111, and abuts against the support assembly 12, so as to push the second end 125 to rotate around the rotation fulcrum in a controlled manner until it extends out of the first mounting groove 111. In this way, the end of the spoon handle 11 away from the spoon body 10 and the second end 125 can be stably placed on the desktop, so that the spoon body 10 is suspended on the desktop, and the rice on the rice scoop 100 is prevented from contacting the desktop, so as to ensure the hygiene and safety of the user.

[0050] In addition, when the user needs to use the rice spoon 100 again, the user can apply force to the second end 125 so that the second end 125 is controlled to rotate around the rotation fulcrum until it is stored in the first installation groove 111. In this way, the support assembly 12 can be prevented from interfering with the user's grip on the spoon handle 11, which is easy to operate and helps to improve the user experience.

[0051] The rice spoon 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can push the second end 125 to rotate around the rotation fulcrum in a controlled manner to extend out of the first installation slot 111 through the button assembly 13, and then use the end of the spoon handle 11 away from the spoon body 10 and the second end 125 to realize the suspended placement of the spoon body 10 on the desktop, thereby preventing the rice on the rice spoon 100 from contacting the desktop to ensure the hygiene and safety of the user. And the user can apply a force to the second end 125 so that the second end 125 is controlled to rotate around the rotation fulcrum to be stored in the first installation slot 111. In this way, it can prevent the support assembly 12 from interfering with the user's grip on the spoon handle 11, and the operation is simple, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0052] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 , a first limiting portion 115 is protruded from the first installation groove 111 , and the first limiting portion 115 is used to abut against the second end 125 when the second end 125 is received in the first installation groove 111 .

[0053] It can be understood that when the second end 125 is received in the first mounting groove 111, the first limiting portion 115 can abut against the second end 125. In this way, the first limiting portion 115 cooperates with the first mounting groove 111 to achieve the stability of the support assembly 12 so as to prevent the second end 125 from escaping from the first mounting groove 111, thereby avoiding interference with the user when the user holds the spoon handle 11 and affecting the user's use; and it can also prevent the support assembly 12 from colliding with external objects and being damaged, which is beneficial to improving the service life of the product.

[0054] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 , the second end 125 is made of an elastic material, and when the button assembly 13 pushes the second end 125 , it is deformed to avoid the first limiting portion 115 .

[0055] It can be understood that when the second end 125 is pushed by the button assembly 13, the second end 125 will generate a thrust on the first limiting portion 115. Correspondingly, the first limiting portion 115 will generate a reaction force to cause the second end 125 to deform, thereby causing the second end 125 to avoid and be dislocated relative to the first limiting portion 115 so as to extend out of the first installation slot 111.

[0056] Similarly, when the user applies a force to the second end 125 so that the second end 125 is controlled to rotate around the rotation fulcrum until it is received in the first installation groove 111, the first limit portion 115 will generate a reaction force to cause the second end 125 to deform, thereby causing the second end 125 to avoid and be misaligned relative to the first limit portion 115 so as to be received in the first installation groove 111.

[0057] Further, referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 8 , the second end 125 is formed with a matching portion 1211, and the matching portion 1211 is limitedly matched with the first limiting portion 115. Exemplarily, the matching portion 1211 is an inclined surface formed on the side of the second end 125 away from the first mounting groove 111, and the inclined surface is inclined toward the side close to the first mounting groove 111 along the direction from the first end 124 to the second end 125. In this way, the cross-sectional area of ​​the second end 125 along the direction from the first end 124 to the second end 125 gradually decreases, and the force required for the second end 125 to deform and avoid the first limiting portion 115 is small, which is convenient for user operation and helps to improve the user experience.

[0058] In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 1 to 7 , the support assembly 12 further includes a first elastic member 123, which is deformably coupled between the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111 and the side surface of the support assembly 12 close to the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111. The first elastic member 123 is used to compress and deform when the second end 125 is received in the first mounting groove 111, and store elastic potential energy for pushing the second end 125 out of the first mounting groove 111 to a preset position.

[0059] It can be understood that the present application sets a first elastic member 123 between the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111 and the side surface of the support assembly 12 close to the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111, so as to utilize the elastic member to apply a force to the second end 125 after extending out of the first mounting groove 111, so that the second end 125 can be further rotated around the rotation fulcrum to a preset position, thereby ensuring that when the end of the spoon handle 11 facing away from the spoon body 10 and the second end 125 are placed on the table at the same time, the support assembly 12, the spoon handle 11 and the table top can form a stable obtuse triangle.

[0060] It should be noted that when the second end 125 extends out of the first mounting slot 111 to the preset position, the second end 125 rotates around the rotation fulcrum by a preset angle W. The preset angle W is greater than 90° and less than 180°, that is, the support assembly 12, the spoon handle 11 and the table top can form a stable obtuse triangle, so that the support assembly 12 and the spoon handle 11 can form a stable support structure to ensure the stable placement of the rice spoon 100.

[0061] In the present application, the specific value range of the preset angle W is not limited. Preferably, the preset angle W is 130°.

[0062] In addition, when the second end 125 extends out of the first installation slot 111 to a preset position, the side surface of the support assembly 12 facing away from the first installation slot 111 abuts against the side wall of the first installation slot 111 .

[0063] It is understandable that the groove sidewall of the first installation groove 111 and the first elastic member 123 can respectively abut against the opposite ends of the support assembly 12, so that the support assembly 12 remains stable, thereby improving the stability of the placement of the rice spoon 100.

[0064] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 2, 4 and 7, the support assembly 12 includes a support member 121 and a rotating shaft 122, wherein the support member 121 has a first end 124 and a second end 125 which are arranged opposite to each other. The first end 124 is matched in the first installation slot 111 through the rotating shaft 122 and is configured to form a rotation fulcrum, and the second end 125 can be controlled to rotate around the rotation fulcrum until it extends out or is received in the first installation slot 111.

[0065] Correspondingly, referring to Figures 7 and 8, a first mounting hole 117 is opened on the groove wall of the first mounting groove 111, a second mounting hole 1213 is opened on the support member 121, and the rotating shaft 122 is movably inserted into the first mounting hole 117 and the second mounting hole 1213 to realize the assembly of the support component 12 and the spoon handle 11.

[0066] Further, referring to Figures 1 to 8, the first elastic member 123 is a torsion spring, and the torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft 122. A limiting rib 116 is provided on the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111, and the surface of the support member 121 close to the first mounting groove 111 is recessed to form a limiting groove 1212, and the head end and the tail end of the torsion spring are respectively abutted against the limiting rib 116 and the groove wall of the limiting groove 1212.

[0067] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 1 , FIG. 3 and FIG. 5 , the first mounting groove 111 and the second mounting groove 112 are disposed at one end of the spoon handle 11 close to the spoon body 10 .

[0068] It is understandable that the support assembly 12 is assembled in the first mounting groove 111, and the support assembly 12 is also correspondingly located at the end of the spoon handle 11 close to the spoon body 10. In this way, when the support assembly 12 and the spoon handle 11 are supported on the table, the center of gravity of the rice spoon 100 as a whole will be between the support assembly 12 and the spoon handle 11, thereby effectively improving the stability of the rice spoon 100.

[0069] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 9 , the button assembly 13 includes a button body 131 , the button body 131 includes a base 132 and a top column 133 protruding from a first surface of the base 132 along a first direction, the base 132 is movably coupled in the second mounting groove 112 , and the top column 133 is movably inserted into the connecting hole 113 .

[0070] It is understandable that after the user uses the rice scoop 100 to scoop up the rice, the user presses the base 132 to move the base 132 in the first direction, and drives the top column 133 to move synchronously, until the top column 133 extends into the first mounting groove 111 through the connecting hole 113, and abuts against the support assembly 12, so as to push the second end 125 to rotate around the rotation fulcrum in a controlled manner until it extends out of the first mounting groove 111. In this way, the end of the spoon handle 11 away from the spoon body 10 and the second end 125 can be stably placed on the desktop, so that the spoon body 10 is suspended on the desktop, and the rice on the rice scoop 100 is prevented from contacting the desktop, so as to ensure the hygiene and safety of the user.

[0071] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 2 and 9, the button body 131 further includes a guide post 134, which protrudes from the first surface along the first direction. The bottom wall of the second mounting groove 112 is provided with a guide hole 114 connected to the first mounting groove 111 along the first direction, and the guide post 134 is movably disposed in the guide hole 114.

[0072] It is understandable that the guide column 134 and the top column 133 extend in the same direction. When the user presses the base 132 , the guide column 134 can prevent the top column 133 from shifting, which helps to ensure smooth movement of the top column 133 .

[0073] Further, the specific number of guide posts 134 is not limited. For example, referring to FIG. 9 , there are four guide posts 134, and the four guide posts 134 are spaced radially from each other and symmetrically distributed on opposite sides of the top post 133. The number of guide holes 114 is equal to the number of guide posts 134, and the guide holes 114 and guide posts 134 are arranged one-to-one.

[0074] It is understandable that after the guide posts 134 are correspondingly inserted into the guide holes 114, a limiting effect can be generated between the two guide posts 134 and the corresponding guide holes 114, and the two cooperate to achieve force balance on the two opposite sides of the base 132 along a radial direction of the top post 133. In addition, the two guide posts 134 are symmetrically distributed along the radial direction of the top post 133, and the two guide posts 134 cooperate with each other to achieve force balance on the two opposite sides of the base 132 along the radial direction of the top post 133, so that the base 132 and the top post 133 can move smoothly, so as to reduce the probability of shaking and offsetting of the button base 132 and the top post 133 during movement, and improve the stability of the assembly of the button assembly 13.

[0075] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 4 , the button assembly 13 further includes a second elastic member 136 , which is clamped between the base 132 and the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111 of the first mounting groove 111 by compression deformation, and the second elastic member 136 is used to provide a thrust for pushing the base 132 away from the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111 along the first direction.

[0076] A second limiting portion 135 is protruded around one end of the guide column 134 away from the base 132, and the end of the guide column 134 away from the base 132 extends into the first mounting groove 111 through the guide hole 114. The second limiting portion 135 is used to abut against the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111 to limit the movement of the base 132 away from the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111 along the first direction.

[0077] It can be understood that when the user presses the button assembly 13 and causes the second end 125 of the support assembly 12 to extend out of the first mounting groove 111, the user will release the pressure on the button assembly 13, and the second elastic member 136 will generate a thrust to push the base 132 along the first direction away from the bottom wall of the first mounting groove 111 until the button assembly 13 returns to its original position.

[0078] It should also be noted that, after the button assembly 13 is restored to its original position, the second elastic member 136 is still in a compressed deformation state, and can continue to generate a thrust on the base 132 to push it away from the bottom wall of the first installation groove 111 along the first direction. To this end, the present application sets a second limiting portion 135 so that after the button assembly 13 is restored to its original position, the second limiting portion 135 will abut against the bottom wall of the first installation groove 111 to offset the thrust of the second elastic member 136, thereby ensuring stable assembly of the button assembly 13.

[0079] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0080] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent application shall be subject to the attached claims.
