The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 A shake-proof combined chopstick spoon comprises a shell 1, a mounting plate 3 is fixed inside the shell 1, a first gear 6 and a second gear 7 are rotatably arranged on the mounting plate 3, a rack 5 is arranged between the first gear 6 and the second gear 7, a fixing block 8 is fixed on the top of the first gear 6 and the second gear 7, a chopstick head 4 is fixed on the outer wall of the fixing block 8, and the rack 5 is meshed with the first gear 6 and the second gear 7, a pressing mechanism 9 for realizing the movement of the rack 5 is installed on the mounting plate 3, a connecting rod 20 is threadedly connected to the side of the mounting plate 3 away from the chopstick head 4, and a spoon head 21 is fixed to the end of the connecting rod 20 away from the chopstick head 4.

[0025] In this embodiment, the pressing mechanism 9 includes a slide plate 11 fixed to the rack 5, and a second connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the slide plate 11, and the other end of the second connecting rod 13 is rotatably connected to the first connecting rod 12, a U-shaped mounting frame 10 is fixed to the outer wall of the mounting plate 3, and the first connecting rod 12 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped mounting frame 10, and a notch 18 is opened on the outer wall of the shell 1, and the connection between the first connecting rod 12 and the second connecting rod 13 is located at the notch 18.

[0026] In this embodiment, a spring 16 is fixed to one end of the slide plate 11 away from the rack 5 , a support block 17 is fixed to the outer wall of the mounting plate 3 , and the spring 16 is fixed to the support block 17 .

[0027] In this embodiment, both ends of the outer wall of the slide plate 11 are fixed with limit strips 14 , and the top of the mounting plate 3 is fixed with a fixed slideway 15 for the limit strips 14 to slide.

[0028] In this embodiment, a pressure plate 19 is installed on the inner wall of the notch 18 close to the chopstick head 4 via a torsion spring.

[0029] In this embodiment, a screw head 23 is fixed to the end of the connecting rod 20, and a screw hole 22 adapted to the screw head 23 is opened on the outer wall of the mounting plate 3. The connecting rod 20 is detachably installed on the outer wall of the mounting plate 3, and a spoon head 21 is fixed to the connecting rod 20, which is convenient for the installation and disassembly of the spoon head 21, and combined with the chopstick head 4 to achieve a multifunctional effect.
