Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of children's products, in particular to a pair of children's learning chopsticks which are easy to disassemble. Background Art

[0002] This section introduces the background technology that may be relevant to various aspects of the embodiments of the present invention. It is believed that this section can provide readers with useful background information to help readers better understand the various aspects of the embodiments of the present invention. Therefore, it should be understood that the description in this section is for the above purpose and does not constitute an admission of prior art.

[0003] Chopsticks are an essential symbol of Chinese culinary culture and one of the most fundamental and commonly used tools in the dining process. Using chopsticks requires complex and delicate hand movements, requiring appropriate force and finger coordination to pick up food and bring it to the mouth. However, for children, learning to use chopsticks is not easy due to their underdeveloped muscles. Even many foreign adults experience significant difficulty learning to use chopsticks. Furthermore, learning to use chopsticks promotes the development of children's hand muscles, improves brain coordination, and develops their potential. Therefore, many parents prioritize chopstick training for their children and begin teaching them how to use chopsticks at an early age. Learning to use ordinary chopsticks can easily lead to incorrect posture, and many adults today continue to use them incorrectly because they didn't master the correct technique as children.

[0004] Currently, children's chopsticks available on the market generally come with finger sleeves to secure the child's fingers. This type of chopsticks, to a certain extent, meets the needs of children learning to use chopsticks, specifically the first stage of their use. As children become more proficient in using chopsticks, they typically no longer need finger sleeves to assist with chopstick use, instead requiring the use of a thumbs-up aid. At this point, the child needs to replace the chopsticks with a thumbs-up aid to complete the second stage of using the chopsticks, until the child no longer needs any other auxiliary components to use the chopsticks normally. Many children's learning chopsticks have been developed on the market. These chopsticks consist of a chopstick body and a housing. The housing contains elastic components that help children develop a sense of force and improve finger coordination. However, to ensure the chopstick body's flexibility, a gap must exist between the body and the housing for the chopstick body to move. During use or cleaning, oil, water, food residue, and the like can easily enter the housing through this gap, making cleaning the interior of the housing difficult and unhygienic. Existing learning chopsticks often use screws or other devices to secure the housing, making disassembly and cleaning the interior of the housing difficult. Utility Model Content

[0047] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a pair of easily disassembled children's learning chopsticks, comprising: a first chopstick lever 11, a second chopstick lever 12, and a connecting member 2, wherein the upper end 111 of the first chopstick lever 11 and the upper end of the second chopstick lever 121 are both detachably connected to the connecting member 2, and further comprising a housing 3, wherein the housing 3 covers the connecting member 2, and the connecting member 2 is detachably fixed within the housing 3; the housing 3 includes a detachable front shell 31 and a rear shell 32, wherein the front shell 31 and the rear shell 32 are detachably connected via threads so that the front shell 31 and the rear shell 32 fit tightly together. The following is a detailed description of the easily disassembled children's learning chopsticks provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

[0049] When children are using the chopsticks, oil, water and food residues are likely to remain and penetrate into the shell 3 through the gap between the shell 3 and the first chopstick lever 11, the second chopstick lever 12, etc. After using for a period of time, the front shell 31 and the rear shell 32 can be disassembled by threads, and then the first chopstick lever 11, the second chopstick lever 12 and the connecting piece 2 can be taken out for easy cleaning.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present utility model, Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the top of the housing 3 is provided with a pair of upper movable through holes 310; the tops of the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 respectively pass through the upper movable through holes 310; the bottom of the housing 2 is provided with a pair of lower movable through holes 320; the lower portions of the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 respectively pass through the upper movable through holes 320. During the use of the learning chopsticks, when the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 are clamped, the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 move within the upper movable through holes 310 and the lower movable through holes 320.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present utility model, Figures 4 to 11As shown, the connecting member 2 includes a first adjustment block 21 and a second adjustment block 22; first limiting blocks 211 are provided at both ends of the first adjustment block 21; second limiting blocks 221 are provided at both ends of the second adjustment block 22; the first limiting blocks 211 abut against the top inner sides of the first and second chopstick levers 11, 12, respectively; and the second limiting blocks 221 abut against the inner sides of the upper middle portions of the first and second chopstick levers 11, 12, respectively. Furthermore, to increase flexibility and simplify the product structure, the first and second adjustment blocks 21, 22 are integrally formed from an elastic material.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present utility model, Figures 7 to 11 As shown, in order to further increase the applicability and meet the needs of children at different stages, the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 are made of stainless steel. The inner and outer sides of the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 near the top are bent to form at least a plurality of limiting grooves 10; the limiting grooves 10 are perpendicular to the length direction of the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12. When used at different stages of growth, the length and holding force of the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 can be adjusted by adjusting the positional relationship between the first adjustment block 21 and the second adjustment block 22 and the limiting grooves 10. In order to be compatible with the needs of different children for holding positions, the limiting grooves are preferably 4-6, and of course the limiting grooves can also be set to other values. In order to increase the stability of the connecting member 2, a pair of abutting protrusions 311 are provided on the inner side of the shell; the abutting protrusions 311 abut the outer sides of the tops of the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 respectively. The abutting protrusion 311 cooperates with the first limiting block 211 and the second limiting block 221 to stably clamp the upper portions of the first and second chopstick levers 11 and 12. Children learn to use chopsticks: Under the combined action of the first adjustment block 21 and the second adjustment block 22, the first and second chopstick levers 11 and 12 are in an open state. Children can use their fingers to squeeze the first and second chopstick levers 11 and 12 inward to clamp food or objects through the clamps. After releasing the pressure on the first and second chopstick levers 11 and 12, the first and second chopstick levers 11 and 12 are opened again due to the elastic action of the first and second adjustment blocks 21 and 22, so that the next gripping training can be carried out.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present utility model, Figures 12 to 13As shown, to further ensure the accuracy of chopstick training, the housing 3 is provided with a detachable jaw support 4. The jaw support 4 has a limit hole 40, and the housing 3 is provided with a limit block 34 that cooperates with the limit hole 43. The limit block 34 passes through the limit hole 43 and rotates 90 degrees. The jaw support 4 is engaged or disengaged with the housing 3 through the cooperation of the limit block 34 and the limit hole 43 to install or remove the jaw support 4. To increase the convenience of connection, the limit block 34 is butterfly-shaped.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present utility model, Figures 7 to 12 As shown, in order to increase the stability of clamping food, the bottom of the first chopstick lever 11 and the second chopstick lever 12 are provided with an integrally formed auxiliary clamp 100; the auxiliary clamp is provided with a plurality of anti-slip grooves 101.

[0055] In summary, the embodiment of the present invention provides easy-to-disassemble children's learning chopsticks, in which the front shell and the rear shell are tightly fitted together by threads and are not easy to loosen; after use, the front shell and the rear shell can be rotated through the threads to disengage from the connecting column, and then the first chopstick rod, the second chopstick rod and the connecting piece can be taken out for cleaning to avoid dirt and grime.
