Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of crab opening hammers, in particular to a multifunctional crab opening tool. Background Art

[0002] A crab hammer typically consists of a hammer head and a handle. One side of the hammer head is flat for striking, while the other side is a hammer head. It's often used to crack open crab shells. To use it, the crab is placed on a small square table. After removing the legs with crab shears, the hammer is used to gently tap around the shell to loosen it, making it easier to remove the meat, roe, and other delicious parts with other tools. Existing research on crab hammers is limited, and achieving diverse functionality is a key and challenging area of ​​current research. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to overcome at least one defect of the above-mentioned prior art and provide a multifunctional crab opening tool, which can be used to beat the crab shell and scoop crab meat at the same time, thereby achieving diversified functions and occupying a smaller space.

[0004] The utility model provides a multifunctional crab opening tool, comprising a hammer body, a crab spoon and an elastic switch member; the crab spoon is rotatably connected to the tail of the hammer body; a storage groove is provided at the tail of the hammer body, and the crab spoon can be unfolded from the storage groove or stored in the storage groove by pressing the elastic switch member.

[0005] The multifunctional crab-opening tool of this invention can be used to open the crab shell by striking it with a hammer, and then to scoop out the crab meat with a crab scoop. It is simple to operate and has multiple functions. To reduce the size of the entire multifunctional crab-opening tool and facilitate portability and storage, the crab scoop and hammer are rotatably connected. The scoop and hammer are unlocked by pressing an elastic switch, which rotates the scoop and deploys it from a storage slot. When the elastic switch is released, the two are locked relative to each other. Pressing the elastic switch again rotates the scoop into the storage slot for storage. When the elastic switch is released, the two are locked relative to each other.

[0006] Therefore, the multifunctional crab opening tool of the utility model has a simple structure, multiple functions, and a small size, and can be carried in a storage box, so it is highly practical.

[0007] Furthermore, the hammer body includes a hammer head and a handle, and the hammer head and the handle are integrally formed in a T-shape.

[0008] The multifunctional crab opening tool of the utility model adopts a hammer structure and is T-shaped as a whole, which is more labor-saving to use. The hammer head is used for striking the crab shell, and the handle is used for holding.

[0009] Furthermore, the storage slot is provided at the rear end of the handle, and the handle is further provided with a first connecting hole. The crab scoop is rotatably connected to the first connecting hole via the elastic switch. When not in use, the crab scoop is stored in the storage slot. Furthermore, the crab scoop includes a hanging portion, a connecting portion, and a scoop head. The connecting portion is connected to the first connecting hole via the elastic switch. The hanging portion is provided with a hanging hole. When the crab scoop is stored in the storage slot, the hanging portion is located at the rear end of the handle.

[0010] The crab scoop has two ends: one end is a scoop head for scooping crab meat; the other end is a hanging part that can be hung on the wall through a hanging hole for storage. The two-stage design allows the crab scoop to be used when unfolded and to be hung and stored through the hanging hole.

[0011] Furthermore, the elastic switch component includes a first switch key, a spring component, a second switch key and a screw component from top to bottom; the connecting portion is provided with a second connecting hole, the spring component is provided in the first connecting hole and passes through the second connecting hole; the first switch key and the second switch key are relatively embedded in the first connecting hole, and are connected to the first switch key through the screw component from bottom to top through the second switch key and the spring component.

[0012] Another major inventive point of the present invention is the design of the elastic switch member, which adopts a push-type structure. Pressing once can lock the switch, and pressing again can unlock the switch, which is convenient and quick to operate.

[0013] Furthermore, a special-shaped boss is provided at the bottom of the second switch key; a third connecting hole is provided on the special-shaped boss; the first connecting hole has a special-shaped hole above and a round hole below; the second connecting hole is a special-shaped hole; the special-shaped boss is embedded into the special-shaped hole and the second connecting hole of the first connecting hole in sequence from top to bottom; the screw passes through the second switch key and the spring member from bottom to top and is connected to the first switch key.

[0014] Furthermore, the special-shaped protrusion is formed by staggered connection of two integrally formed rectangular columns.

[0015] Furthermore, at least one end of the hammer head is densely covered with pointed contacts.

[0016] Furthermore, the hammer head includes a hammer body and a hammer cover, and a cross reinforcement rib is provided inside the hammer body; the outer matrix of the hammer cover is densely covered with pointed contacts, and the inner side is rotatably and detachably connected to the hammer body.

[0017] In order to enhance the structural stability of the hammer body, the utility model provides a cross reinforcement rib inside the hammer body. The cross reinforcement rib is integrally formed with the hammer body, which increases the weight and stability of the hammer body and provides a better striking effect.

[0018] Furthermore, both side surfaces of the hammer body are recessed inwards to form recessed positions.

[0019] The design of the recessed position facilitates the fit with the hand when hanging or taking or placing the hand, thereby preventing the hand from slipping.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] Through structural improvements, this crab-opening tool simultaneously functions as a crab hammer and a crab scoop, allowing the crab scoop to be stored within the hammer. The overall structure is lightweight, making it easy to carry and store. A resilient, press-type control system facilitates locking and unlocking the hammer and crab scoop. Furthermore, the hammer head cover of this utility model features a matrix of pointed contacts on the outside, making striking crab shells more labor-efficient. The hammer head cover is also removable, making it easy to replace and extending the overall lifespan. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
