Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of tableware technology, specifically to an ice cream scoop. Background Technology
[0002] With the diversification of ice cream forms, there is more and more product innovation for ice cream balls and ice cubes, and their application scenarios are also increasing. Some are eaten directly, some are added to a cup with water to become a beverage, and some ice cubes are used in restaurants or bars to make cocktails, drinks and other products. There is still room for improvement in how to quickly and accurately measure ice balls and ice cubes and take them out at once and add them to beverages, cocktails, beer and other applications.
[0003] In existing technology, ice pucks and ice blocks do not stick to each other, and staff can usually pick them up with a measuring spoon.
[0004] However, when using this measuring spoon to pick up scoops of sugary ice cream, the scoops tend to stick together and clump together due to temperature fluctuations, making it difficult to remove the scoops quickly. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problems mentioned in the background art and to enable the rapid removal of easily sticky ice cream scoops, this application provides an ice cream scoop for removing ice cubes. The ice cream scoop includes a scoop body and slots. The slots are evenly distributed on the surface of the scoop body, and a first hole is formed in the slot, penetrating the scoop body. A positioning ring can be formed in the first hole along the thickness direction of the scoop body to facilitate positioning of the ice cube.
[0006] With this configuration, the slot provided in the spoon body of this application has a positioning ring extending into the spoon body, that is, the positioning ring is set on the outer diameter of the first hole. In the embodiments of this application, a spoon body with a positioning ring and a spoon body without a positioning ring can be provided. The spoon body with a positioning ring is mainly used to quickly pick up spherical ice cream balls or ice balls. The size of the positioning ring should be adapted as closely as possible to the size of the end of the ice ball to prevent the ice ball from leaking out of the first hole. During the picking process, the ice ball will not run out of the spoon body due to shaking of the operator's hand.
[0007] In addition, it should be noted that when using this ice cream scoop, users can also use it to quickly and conveniently remove sugary, sticky spherical foods. For example, when removing an ice cream ball, the outside of the ice cream ball is prone to melting and sticking to the scoop. This application provides a first hole in the slot, so that the sugary liquid on the outside of the ice cream ball can leak out through the first hole, preventing excessive sugar from condensing on the outside of the ice cream ball and causing it to stick to the scoop.
[0008] In addition, it should be noted that users can also use the ice cream scoop to remove ice balls from drinks that are a mixture of solid and liquid. The liquid on the outside of the ice ball contains sugar, which can easily stick to the slot because the ice ball itself is cold. This liquid can also leak out through the first hole to reduce the degree of sticking. Furthermore, when users are eating drinks such as milk tea, they can also remove the tapioca pearls separately to eat, increasing the fun of eating.
[0009] According to one embodiment of this application, the card slot is circular, and / or the card slot is polygonal.
[0010] With this configuration, the slot of the spoon body provided in this application embodiment can be set with different structural shapes to adapt to ice balls and ice cubes of different shapes. The size of the slot can also be adjusted according to different ice balls and ice cubes. Furthermore, the spoon body can be provided with a variety of different shaped slots, which makes it convenient for users to take out drinks and food containing mixed types of ice cubes.
[0011] According to one embodiment provided in this application, the spoon body is square, and / or the spoon body is round.
[0012] With this design, regardless of whether the spoon body is square or round, the end of the spoon body near the handle is rounded and chamfered. This not only enhances the aesthetics of the spoon body but also avoids potential safety issues.
[0013] According to one embodiment of this application, the volume of the slot in the spoon body is the same as the volume of the ice cube, so that the ice cube can be stuck in the slot.
[0014] With this configuration, the specific size of the slot provided in this embodiment is consistent with the volume of the ice block to be taken, so that the ice ball or ice block to be taken can be properly locked in the slot, preventing it from falling off during the removal process.
[0015] According to one embodiment of this application, a spoon body is provided with a spoon handle at one end, and a serrated protrusion is formed at the end of the spoon body away from the spoon handle.
[0016] With this design, since ice pucks may stick together, the serrated protrusions at the end of the scoop can break the sticking parts between the ice pucks when the user scoops them up, allowing each ice puck to fall into its respective slot individually.
[0017] According to one embodiment of this application, the protrusions are evenly laid along the width direction of the spoon body surface.
[0018] With this design, the protrusion covers the entire front end of the spoon body. The large serrated protrusion area also makes it easier for users to scoop up ice cream and other products, preventing the connection between the spoon handle and the spoon body from bending.
[0019] According to one embodiment of this application, the spoon body further includes an arc-shaped base extending along the thickness direction of the spoon body to increase the internal volume of the spoon body.
[0020] According to one embodiment of this application, the arc of the arc-shaped substrate is L, which satisfies 10°≤L≤20°.
[0021] With this design, the bottom of the spoon is curved, and a concave space is formed on the other side, so that the user can hold the ice puck inside the spoon when scooping it up, preventing the ice puck from rolling out of the spoon.
[0022] According to one embodiment of this application, a padding layer is formed on the side of the spoon body away from the arc-shaped base, and the padding layer at least covers the tail of the spoon body to prevent the ice ball from leaking out.
[0023] With this design, the padding layer is placed on the side of the spoon body surface, surrounding the edge of the spoon body, and covering the tail of the spoon body, so that the user can quickly scoop up the ice puck and prevent the ice puck from rolling out from the tail and side of the spoon body.
[0024] According to one embodiment of this application, the spoon handle and the spoon body are integrally formed, wherein the connection between the spoon handle and the spoon body is a smooth curved surface.
[0025] With this design, the spoon body and handle are made in one piece, and the connection is reinforced. Since the connection between the spoon handle and the spoon body is most prone to breakage, the surface of the connection needs to be polished after reinforcement to improve strength and prevent the connection between the spoon body and the handle from breaking during use.
[0026] This application provides an ice cream scoop for removing ice cubes. The scoop includes a scoop body and a slot. The slot is evenly distributed on the surface of the scoop body, and a first hole is formed in the slot, penetrating the scoop body. A positioning ring can be formed in the first hole along the thickness direction of the scoop body to facilitate positioning of the ice cube. When using this ice cream scoop, the user can also quickly and conveniently remove sugary, easily sticky spherical foods. When removing ice cream balls, the outside of the ice cream ball melts easily and tends to stick to the scoop body. However, by providing a first hole in the slot, the sugary liquid on the outside of the ice cream ball can leak out through the first hole, preventing excessive sugar from condensing on the outside of the ice ball and causing it to stick to the scoop body.

[0038] With the diversification of ice cream forms, there is more and more product innovation for ice cream balls and ice cubes, and their application scenarios are also increasing. Some are eaten directly, some are added to a cup with water to become a beverage, and some ice cubes are used in restaurants or bars to make cocktails, drinks and other products. There is still room for improvement in how to quickly and accurately measure ice balls and ice cubes and take them out at once and add them to beverages, cocktails, beer and other applications.
[0039] In existing technology, ice pucks and ice blocks do not stick to each other, and staff can usually pick them up with a measuring spoon.
[0040] However, when using this measuring spoon to pick up scoops of sugary ice cream, the scoops tend to stick together and clump together due to temperature fluctuations, making it difficult to remove the scoops quickly.
[0041] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a square ice cream scoop provided in an embodiment of this application; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a circular ice cream scoop provided in an embodiment of this application.

The slots 110 are evenly distributed on the surface of the scoop body 100. A first hole 120 penetrating the scoop body 100 is formed in the slot 110. A positioning ring can be formed in the first hole 120 along the thickness direction of the scoop body 100 to facilitate positioning of the ice cubes.
[0043] It should be noted that the slot 110 provided in the spoon body 100 of this application has a positioning ring extending into the interior of the spoon body 100 in the middle. That is, the positioning ring is set on the outer diameter of the first hole 120. In the embodiments of this application, a spoon body 100 with a positioning ring and a spoon body 100 without a positioning ring can be provided. The spoon body 100 with a positioning ring is mainly used to quickly pick up spherical ice cream balls or ice balls. The size of the positioning ring should be adapted to the size of the end of the ice ball to avoid the ice ball from leaking out of the first hole 120. During the picking process, the ice ball will not run out of the spoon body 100 due to the shaking of the operator's hand.
[0044] In addition, it should be noted that when using this ice cream scoop, users can also use it to quickly and conveniently remove sugary, sticky spherical foods. For example, when removing an ice cream ball, the outside of the ice cream ball is prone to melting and sticking to the scoop body 100. This application provides a first hole 120 in the slot 110, so that the sugary liquid on the outside of the ice cream ball can leak out through the first hole 120, avoiding excessive sugar from condensing on the outside of the ice cream ball and causing it to stick to the scoop body 100.
[0045] In addition, it should be noted that users can also use the ice cream scoop to remove ice balls from drinks that are a mixture of solid and liquid. The liquid on the outside of the ice ball contains sugar, which can easily stick to the slot 110 because the ice ball itself is at a low temperature. The liquid can also leak out through the first hole 120 to reduce the degree of sticking. Furthermore, when users are consuming drinks such as milk tea, they can also remove the tapioca pearls separately to eat, increasing the fun of the experience.

[0048] According to one embodiment provided in this application, the spoon body 100 can be square or circular.
[0049] It should be noted that, regardless of whether a square or round spoon body 100 is used, the end of the spoon body 100 near the handle 130 is designed with an arc-shaped chamfer. This not only enhances the aesthetics of the spoon body 100, but also avoids potential safety issues.
[0050] According to one embodiment of this application, the volume of the slot 110 of the spoon body 100 is the same as the volume of the ice cube, so that the ice cube can be stuck in the slot 110.
[0051] It should be noted that the specific size of the slot 110 provided in this application embodiment is consistent with the volume of the ice block to be taken, so that the ice ball or ice block to be taken can be properly locked in the slot 110, preventing it from falling off during the process of taking it out.
[0052] According to one embodiment of this application, a spoon body 100 is provided with a spoon handle 130 at one end, and a serrated protrusion 140 is formed at the end of the spoon body 100 away from the spoon handle 130.
[0053] It should be noted that, since the ice pucks may stick together, when the user scoops the ice pucks, the serrated protrusion 140 at the end of the scoop body 100 can break the sticky parts between the ice pucks, so that each ice puck can fall into the respective slot 110 individually.
[0054] According to one embodiment of this application, the protrusions 140 are evenly laid along the width direction of the surface of the spoon body 100.
[0055] It should be noted that the protrusion 140 occupies the entire front end of the spoon body 100. The large area of the serrated protrusion 140 makes it easier for users to scoop up ice cream and other products, preventing the connection between the spoon handle 130 and the spoon body 100 from bending.
[0056] According to one embodiment provided in this application, the spoon body 100 further includes an arc-shaped base extending along the thickness direction of the spoon body 100 to increase the internal volume of the spoon body 100.
[0057] According to one embodiment of this application, the arc of the arc-shaped substrate is L, which satisfies 10°≤L≤20°.
[0058] It should be noted that the bottom of the spoon body 100 is curved, and a concave space is formed on the other side. When scooping up the ice puck, the user can hold the ice puck inside the spoon body 100 to prevent the ice puck from rolling out of the spoon body 100.
[0059] According to one embodiment of this application, a padding layer is formed on the side of the spoon body 100 away from the arc-shaped base, and the padding layer at least covers the tail of the spoon body 100 to prevent the ice puck from leaking out.
