Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of washing powder packaging utensils, and particularly relates to a multifunctional spoon. Background Art

[0002] Laundry detergent is widely used in daily life. However, while most bagged laundry detergent products indicate the dosage for different laundry weights, few provide convenient measuring tools. This often makes it difficult for consumers to accurately control the amount of laundry detergent used, resulting in wasted detergent or poor cleaning results. Even if a spoon of a certain size is provided as a measuring tool, it must be placed outside after each use, either on the ground, in the washing machine, or inside the bag. Placing it outside can easily contaminate external objects or the ground due to residual detergent on the spoon, and it can also be easily lost. Placing it inside the bag can also cause the entire spoon to become sticky with detergent, contaminating hands every time it is used, resulting in a poor user experience. Furthermore, after opening the bagged laundry detergent, it is directly exposed to humid air due to the lack of a seal. When the humidity is high or it is stored in an improper location (such as a humid environment like a bathroom or kitchen), it can clump, which can easily contaminate the detergent inside the bag. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the existing technical defects and provide a multifunctional spoon. First, it can be used as a tool for measuring the amount of laundry detergent. By providing a clamping groove on the spoon handle, it can be clamped at the opening of the laundry detergent bag, achieving the dual functions of storing and placing the laundry detergent and sealing the bag opening.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a multifunctional spoon, including a spoon and a spoon handle, a pressure plate is provided on one side of the spoon handle to form a clamping groove between the spoon handle and the pressure plate, and an opening of the clamping groove is formed between one end of the pressure plate and the spoon handle.

[0005] Furthermore, one end of the pressing plate is bent outward to form a seesaw, so that an inlet communicating with the clamping groove and having an opening size larger than the clamping groove is formed between the seesaw and the spoon handle.

[0006] Furthermore, one end of the pressing plate away from the seesaw is integrally connected to the spoon handle.

[0007] Furthermore, the spoon handle is a retractable telescopic rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the spoon handle includes a first handle section and a second handle section that slides back and forth on the first handle section. The first handle section is provided with a plurality of limit grooves spaced along its length, and the front end of the second handle section is provided with an elastic buckle that engages with the limit groove; the pressure plate is provided on one side of the second handle section.

[0009] Furthermore, the second handle section is provided with a slot for inserting the first handle section, so that when the second handle section slides toward the spoon, the first handle section is embedded therein, and the elastic buckle protrudes into the slot and engages with the limiting groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the front end of the first handle segment is provided with a stopper that abuts against the front end surface of the second handle segment.

[0011] Furthermore, the spoon is rotatably connected to the front end of the first handle section, so that the spoon can be rotated relative to the spoon handle to open or fold.

[0012] Furthermore, the spoon and the first handle section are rotatably connected using a hinge structure, the front end of the stop portion is protruded with a locking plate, the rear end of the spoon is protruded with a connecting portion rotatably connected to the first handle section, the back side of the connecting portion is provided with a slot for the locking plate to be rotatably engaged, and both side walls of the slot are provided with tongues that engage with the locking plate.

[0014] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] In the utility model, firstly, the spoon can be used as a tool to measure the amount of washing powder, so as to achieve the purpose of quantitative extraction of washing powder, improve the washing effect and reduce waste, and through the clamping groove provided on the spoon handle, after the spoon is used, it can be clamped at the opening of the washing powder bag, and can be used as a clip to seal and preserve the washing powder, so as to prevent the washing powder in the bag from getting damp or contaminated, and also facilitate the storage and placement of the spoon, without having to place it on the ground or in a bag, so as to achieve the dual functions of storage and sealing the bag opening.

[0016] Secondly, the spoon and the handle are connected by a rotation, and the two can be folded 180 degrees. The structure of the spoon handle adopts a retractable telescopic rod, so that it can be extended and retracted within a certain length range. Therefore, when in use, the length of the spoon handle can be adjusted according to the size of the bag and the depth of the laundry detergent, making it convenient for the spoon to extract the laundry detergent in the bag, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the product. When not in use, it can be folded and contracted to reduce the overall size of the spoon, solving the problem of occupying a large space. After contraction, it is also convenient to clamp it at the bag mouth.

[0025] In order to more fully understand the technical content of the present invention, the present invention will be further introduced and explained in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that if there are descriptions such as "first" and "second" in the text, they are used to distinguish different components, etc., and do not represent the order of precedence, nor do they limit the "first" and "second" to different types.

[0026] 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 described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments; based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] Example

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the multifunctional spoon shown in this embodiment includes a spoon 1 and a spoon handle 2. The front of the spoon 1 is provided with a cavity 10 for accommodating items (such as laundry detergent). The size of the cavity 10 can be set to a capacity of 5ml, 10ml, 15ml, etc. according to demand at the factory, and no specific limitation is made here, so as to achieve the purpose of quantitatively extracting laundry detergent, improve the laundry effect and reduce waste; a pressing plate 3 is provided at intervals on the back side of the spoon handle 2 by an integral molding method, so as to form a clamping groove 3 for clamping the laundry detergent bag at the bag opening between the spoon handle 2 and the pressing plate 3 1, and a clamping groove 31 is formed between one end of the pressing plate 3 and the spoon handle 2. After the spoon is used, the opening of the laundry detergent bag can be inserted into the clamping groove and clamped in place. The multifunctional spoon can then be clamped to the opening of the laundry detergent bag, acting as a clamp to seal and store the laundry detergent, preventing problems such as the detergent clumping caused by moisture. It also facilitates the storage of the spoon, eliminating the need to place it on the ground or in a bag, achieving the dual functions of storage and sealing the bag opening. The other end of the pressing plate 3 is integrally connected to the spoon handle. It will be understood that when clamping it to the bag opening, the bag opening is usually folded at least once to close it before being clamped and secured with the clamping groove.

[0029] As a preference, Figures 3 to 6 As shown, one end of the pressing plate 3 is bent outward to provide a seesaw 32 to enlarge the opening, thereby forming an inlet 33 between the seesaw 32 and the spoon handle 2, which is connected to the clamping groove 31 and has an opening size larger than the clamping groove 31. The expanded inlet 33 can facilitate the insertion of the bag into the clamping groove 31; the end of the pressing plate 3 away from the seesaw 32 is integrally connected to the spoon handle 2.

[0030] In one embodiment, if Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in order to adapt to the use of washing powder bags of different sizes and to adapt to the gradual reduction of washing powder in the bag, the spoon handle 2 is a retractable telescopic rod, that is, the length of the spoon handle 2 can be adjusted telescopically. When the washing powder is initially used, it can be retracted to the shortest point for use. As the washing powder is used less and less, the height from the bag opening becomes higher and higher. At this time, it is necessary to gradually stretch the spoon handle outward to expand the length so that the spoon can extract the washing powder inside, avoiding the user's hand from inserting into the bag to extract the washing powder; in addition, when the multifunctional spoon remains unchanged, the larger the strap, the longer the spoon handle length required, so the telescopic structure can be adapted to the use of bags of different sizes, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the product, and also facilitating storage after retraction, reducing the space it occupies.

[0031] As a preference, Figures 3 to 5As shown, in order to realize the telescopic structure, the spoon handle 2 includes a first handle section 21 and a second handle section 22 which is slidably arranged on the first handle section 21. A plurality of limiting grooves 23 are provided at intervals along the length of the first handle section 21, and an elastic buckle 24 which is engaged with the limiting groove 23 is provided at the front end of the second handle section 22, that is, the sliding and telescopic adjustment between the two handle sections is realized by cooperating with the elastic buckle 24 and any limiting groove 23. When the elastic buckle 24 is engaged with the frontmost limiting groove 23, the two are in the shortest contracted state. When the elastic buckle 24 slides backward along the first handle section 21 and is engaged with the rearmost limiting groove 23, the two are in the longest extended state. The pressure plate 3 is integrally formed and is arranged at intervals on the back side of the second handle section 22, and the inlet 33 is set in the direction away from the spoon 1.

[0032] As a preference, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the second handle section 22 is provided with a slot for the first handle section 21 to be inserted. The slot is a hollow structure that penetrates from front to back, so that when the second handle section 22 slides toward the spoon 1, the first handle section 21 is embedded inside it, and the elastic buckle 24 protrudes into the slot and engages with the limiting groove 23.

[0033] As a preference, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the front end of the first handle segment 21 is provided with a stop portion 25 that abuts against the front end surface of the second handle segment 22 to stop the forward sliding stroke of the second handle segment 22 and prevent it from sliding beyond the range of the limit groove.

[0034] In one embodiment, in order to better store the multifunctional spoon, the spoon 1 and the front end of the first handle section 21 are rotatably connected using a hinge structure, so that the spoon 1 can be rotated 180 degrees relative to the handle 2 to open or fold.

[0035] As a preference, the specific rotation structure is as follows: Figures 2 to 6 As shown, a locking plate 26 is protruded from the front end of the stopper portion 25, and a connecting portion 11 rotatably connected to the first handle section 21 is protruded from the rear end of the spoon 1. A slot 12 for the locking plate 26 to be rotatably inserted into is recessed at the back side of the connecting portion 11 facing away from the accommodating cavity 10, and tongues 13 are provided on both side walls of the slot 12 for engaging with the locking plate 26. That is, after the locking plate 26 is rotated and inserted into the slot 12, it is fixed by the tongues 13 so that it remains in the stretched and opened state when in use, avoiding the problem of self-rotation. When it needs to be further folded and stored, a certain force is applied to the spoon handle or the spoon to disengage the locking plate 26 from the tongue.

[0036] As a preference, Figures 2 to 6As shown, two symmetrically arranged rotating seats 14 are provided at the rear end of the connecting portion 11, and a rotating shaft 15 is protruded from the inner side of the two rotating seats 14. A connecting seat 27 located between the two rotating seats 15 is provided on the stop portion 22, and an axial hole 28 for inserting the rotating shaft 15 is provided on the connecting seat 27, thereby realizing a rotating engaging connection between the spoon and the spoon handle, ensuring that the spoon 1 is not easy to fall off during use.

[0037] The above is a detailed introduction to the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention. Specific examples are used herein to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the embodiments of the present invention. The description of the above embodiments is only applicable to help understand the principles of the embodiments of the present invention. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the embodiments of the present invention, there may be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scopes. In summary, the contents of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
