DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The present invention provides a children's fork and spoon set. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of the present invention more clear and explicit, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only intended to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2, the present utility model provides a children's fork and spoon set, including a children's spoon 1, a children's fork 2 and a protective box body 3. The children's spoon 1 includes a first silicone handle 11, a spoon head 12 provided at the front end of the first silicone handle 11, and a first finger sleeve 13 provided at the front end of the first silicone handle 11; the children's fork 2 includes a second silicone handle 21, a fork head 22 provided at the front end of the second silicone handle 21, and a second finger sleeve 23 provided at the front end of the second silicone handle 21; the front ends of the first finger sleeve 13 and the second finger sleeve 23 are closed, and the rear ends are finger insertion holes 20; the protective box 3 is used for storing and protecting the spoon head 12 and the fork head 22, which can not only prevent the spoon head 12 and the fork head 22 from being contaminated or damaged, but also facilitate parents to store and carry.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, in the children's fork and spoon set of the present utility model, through the design of the first finger sleeve 13 and the second finger sleeve 23, when children use the children's spoon 1 and the children's fork 2, they can put their fingers into the finger insertion holes 20 to more stably control the children's spoon 1 and the children's fork 2, reducing the possibility of the tableware slipping. The handles and finger sleeves made of silicone material are not only soft and anti-slip, but also can reduce the pressure on children's hands caused by long-term use, improving the comfort of use. In addition, the closed front ends of the finger sleeves can, on the one hand, limit the inserted fingers to determine a better holding position, and on the other hand, avoid direct contact between the fingers and the food, maintaining hygiene and reducing the risk of accidental injury at the same time.

[0019] Specifically, a first cartoon head 14 is provided at the rear end of the first silicone handle 11, and a second cartoon head 24 is provided at the rear end of the second silicone handle 21. The design of the cartoon heads increases the interest and visual attraction of the tableware, can attract children's attention and stimulate their interest in using the tableware; specific cartoon images may be associated with the characters in the stories or cartoons that children like. This emotional connection can enhance children's liking for the tableware, and then improve their enthusiasm for self-feeding.

[0020] Furthermore, a first concave texture 15 is formed on the first silicone handle 11, and a second concave texture 25 is formed on the second silicone handle 21. The first concave texture 15 and the first cartoon head 14 interact with each other, and the second concave texture 25 and the second cartoon head 24 form a better visual effect. On the other hand, the concave texture can increase the friction on the surface of the silicone handle, making it easier for children to hold the tableware. A reasonable concave texture design can better fit the hand shape of children, reduce the discomfort during long-term holding, and make the holding more comfortable and natural.

[0021] The first silicone handle 11 is provided with a first anti-slip pattern 16 located at the first finger sleeve 13 and extending in the front-back direction. The second silicone handle 21 is provided with a second anti-slip pattern 26 located at the second finger sleeve 23 and extending in the front-back direction. The first anti-slip pattern 16 and the second anti-slip pattern 26 can increase the friction on the surfaces of the first silicone handle 11 and the second silicone handle 21, especially in the finger sleeve area, which helps children hold the tableware more stably and is not easy to slip even when the hands are wet.

[0022] Specifically, the protective box 3 is jointly formed by a left box body 31 and a right box body 32. One end of the left box body 31 is hinged to one end of the right box body 32, and the other end of the left box body 31 is detachably connected to the other end of the right box body 32. A positioning plate (not visible in the figure) for positioning the fork head 22 and the spoon head 12 is provided inside the left box body 31, that is, the positioning plate is provided with a card slot. The protective box 3 can be easily opened or closed by parents. The design of the positioning plate can ensure that the spoon head 12 and the fork head 22 are firmly fixed in the box, avoiding movement or collision during transportation or carrying, and reducing the risk of damage. It can be understood that compared with the storage box that stores and protects the entire children's spoon 1 and children's fork 2, only protecting the fork head 22 and the spoon head 12 can reduce the manufacturing cost of the protective box 3, and the protective box is more compact.

[0023] Two fixing clip openings 33 corresponding to the tails of the spoon head 12 and the fork head 22 respectively are formed on the rear end surface of the protective box 3. Each fixing clip opening 33 is composed of a first notch on the left box body 31 and a second notch on the right box body 32. The fixing clip opening 33 composed of the first notch and the second notch can closely fit the shape of the tail end of the spoon head 12 or the fork head 22, ensuring that the tableware is firmly fixed in the protective box 3 and reducing the risk of movement and collision.

[0024] See Figure 3 As shown, in order to solve the problem that the fork head 22 and the spoon head 12 of the children's fork 2 and the children's spoon 1 are directly placed on the table and contaminated in the state to be used, and to solve the problem of the placement and drying of the children's fork 2 and the children's spoon 1 after cleaning, two support protrusions 34 for supporting the tail ends of the fork head 22 and the spoon head 12 respectively are provided on the outer surface of the right box body 32, and a clamping groove 35 is provided on the support protrusion 34. When taking out the children's fork 2 and the children's spoon 1 from the protective box for use, by clamping the tail ends of the fork head 22 and the spoon head 12 into the clamping groove 35 of the support protrusion 34, the tableware can be placed in the air, avoiding direct contact with the table, thereby reducing the contamination of the fork head 22 and the spoon head 12. When the children's fork 2 and the children's spoon 1 are cleaned, they cannot be directly put into the protective box 3. By clamping the tail ends of the fork head 22 and the spoon head 12 into the clamping groove 35 of the support protrusion 34, the tableware can be placed in the air, which helps air circulation, accelerates the evaporation of the water on the tableware after cleaning, is beneficial to the rapid drying of the tableware, and reduces the growth of bacteria.
