Fruit puree is a common food item for these groups during their meals. However, there are some common feeding spoons and specialized scraping spoons on the market. Common feeding spoons are relatively conventional in shape and are not suitable for scraping or scooping fruit puree. The edges of existing scraping spoons are often serrated and sharp. These serrated edges form grooves when scraping fruit puree, making it difficult to scrape the fruit puree away as the grooves deepen. Scraping the fruit puree perpendicular to the grooves can easily break the groove edges, leaving larger particles of fruit pulp, resulting in uneven fruit puree particles. This makes it difficult for infants, young children, and the elderly to digest it, and can also cause dangerous situations such as choking. Furthermore, the serrated scraping teeth can easily puncture the skin, causing injuries. Fruit puree spoons have a limited function and cannot fully meet the needs of eating or scraping fruit puree. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a spoon that can easily scrape fruit puree while also being convenient for eating and feeding, thereby improving dining safety. Utility Model Content

[0026] The following is combined with Figure 1-8 The utility model is described in further detail.
[0027] A multifunctional spoon comprises a spoon head 1 and an integrally formed spoon handle 2. The spoon head 1 is shovel-shaped, with an elliptical spoon mouth 11 above the spoon head 1. The edge of the top of the spoon mouth 11 is provided with a scraping groove 3 for scraping fruit mud; the spoon mouth 11 comprises a front edge 111, two side edges 112 and a rear edge 113. The scraping groove 3 surrounds the front edge 111 and the two side edges 112 and extends from the two side edges 112 to the rear edge 113 respectively. The depth of the scraping groove 3 gradually becomes shallower from the two side edges 112 to the rear edge 113 until it is flush with the upper surface of the rear edge 113. The spoon handle 2 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rear edge 113.
[0028] The spoon head 1 is a shovel-shaped structure formed by an arc-shaped transition, which can accommodate more food. The bottom of the shovel-shaped spoon head 1 is located in the middle and rear part of the spoon head 1, making the front part of the spoon head 1 thinner and easier to put into the mouth, thereby improving the comfort of the spoon head 1 entering the mouth and reducing the possibility of food falling.
[0029] like Figure 1 、 2 As shown, the width of the spoon mouth 11 gradually increases from the front edge 111 to the rear edge 113. This structure makes the front edge 111 of the spoon mouth 11 more convenient for entry.
[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, to facilitate the lips to clear food from the surface of the spoon head 1, the side edge 112 between the front edge 111 and the rear edge 113 is concave in an arc shape. The side of the spoon head 1 is slightly concave between the front edge 111 and the rear edge 113, which improves the comfort of the mouth and the convenience of swallowing food.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, the angle α between the line formed by connecting the midpoint of the front edge 111 and the midpoint of the rear edge 113 and the axis of the spoon handle 2 is 3-8 degrees. This structure makes the rear edge 113 of the spoon mouth 11 higher than the front edge 111, making it easier to pass food in the spoon mouth 11 into the mouth and more ergonomic.
[0032] like Figure 3 、 4As shown, the scraping groove 3 has a V-shaped cross-section and includes an annular outer blade 31 and an annular inner blade 32. The highest point of the inner blade 32 is lower than the highest point of the outer blade 31. When using this spoon to scrape fruit puree, first point the spoon head 1 with the spoon mouth 11 toward the fruit pulp, place the scraping groove 3 against the fruit pulp, and pull the spoon handle 2 inward. The inner blade 32 and outer blade 31 of the scraping groove 3 scrape the fruit pulp in turn, improving the efficiency and effect of scraping the fruit puree, and making the fruit puree more delicate.
[0033] The scraper groove 3 is located at the edge of the spoon mouth 11. The inner and outer blades 32 and 31 form an arc-shaped transition with the spoon head 1, making it more adaptable to sensitive and soft mouths and providing greater safety. The multifunctional spoon can be made of stainless steel, which has a certain hardness and can scrape and scoop fruit purees of varying hardness. The spoon is easy to rinse, reducing the problem of dirt and debris in the scraper groove 3.
[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, the spoon head 1 of this embodiment extends along the length of the spoon handle 2, and the axis of the spoon head 1 and the axis of the spoon handle 2 are coplanar. This multifunctional spoon, in which the spoon head 1 extends along the length of the spoon handle 2, is suitable for use when the person feeding the child is facing an infant, young child, or elderly person, and the front edge 111 of the spoon mouth 11 is more convenient for feeding.
[0035] like Figure 7 、 8 As shown, in another embodiment, the spoon head 1 is offset to the left or right side in the length direction of the spoon handle 2.
[0036] When feeding infants or the elderly, the spoon head 1 is offset to the left or right side in the length direction of the spoon handle 2, which is suitable for left-handed and right-handed feeders to use when they are at a certain angle relative to the same side as the infant or the elderly. The angle between the spoon head 1 and the spoon handle 2 in the length direction can be about 30°, which can meet the comfortable angle posture of the feeder and the diner, while ensuring that the front edge 111 of the spoon mouth 11 is more convenient for entry.
[0037] You can also choose according to your own habits of using tableware. For example, if the user is used to using tableware with his left hand, he can choose a spoon with the spoon head 1 offset to the left side of the length direction of the spoon handle 2; if the user is used to using tableware with his right hand, he can choose a spoon with the spoon head 1 offset to the right side of the length direction of the spoon handle 2.
[0038] In another embodiment, the bottom of the spoon head 1 is an oval or triangular flat bottom. The oval or triangular flat bottom is provided to facilitate the spoon to be placed stably in a bowl or on a table.
[0039] The handle 2 extends outward from one end of the spoon head 1 and curves in a gradual arc toward the bottom side of the spoon head 1. The width of the handle 2 gradually widens from one end of the spoon head 1 along the length of the handle 2. The curved and gradually widening handle 2 conforms to ergonomic principles. The grip portion fits the fingertips, making it easier to hold and can well fit the angle of the human wrist when scraping fruit puree, improving user comfort.
[0040] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the present utility model.
