[0046] Embodiment 1

[0047] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The present application provides a rice scoop, which comprises a scoop part 11 and a handle part 12. Wherein,

[0048] The handle part 12 extends in a longitudinal direction and is connected with the scoop part 11, and a first slot 2 is arranged at one end of the handle part 12 away from the scoop part 11, the first slot 2 comprises a fastening segment 21 and a guide segment 22, the guide segment 22 has an end opening 23, and the end opening 23 penetrates one end of the handle part 12 away from the scoop part 11.

[0049] When viewed in the longitudinal direction, the cross-sectional area of the end opening 23 is greater than that of the fastening segment 21.

[0050] It should be noted that first of all, in the present embodiment, the rice scoop 1 is a general term for utensils suitable for kitchen utensils, such as rice scoops 1, soup scoops, rice spatulas and the like suitable for various types of utensils such as electric rice cookers, electric cookers and the like, which have similar functions such as scooping soup and serving rice, and is not limited to a scoop-shaped utensil for serving rice, therefore, the concepts of the scoop part 11 and the handle part 12 in the present application should be clear, and the specific structure of the scoop part 11 and the handle part 12 will not be described.

[0051] Secondly, based on the design requirement, the first slot 2 can be arranged on any side of the end of the handle 12 away from the spoon 11, and the number of the first slot 2 can be one or more, preferably, the first slot 2 is designed on the side of the end of the handle 12, and the number is preferably one.

[0052] Specifically, the guiding section 22 gradually shrinks from the end opening 23 to the fastening section 21 along the longitudinal direction, and when viewed along at least one direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the depth of the first slot 2 located at the guiding section 22 is greater than the depth of the first slot 2 located at the fastening section 21.

[0053] In this way, the first slot 2 forms a structure that gradually shrinks in cross section and gradually decreases in depth from the guiding section 22 to the fastening section 21.

[0054] In addition, the present application provides a cooking appliance 5 used in cooperation with the above-mentioned rice spoon 1, which can be a publicly known electric rice cooker (as shown in the drawings), an electric boiling pot, or other kitchen appliance that can be used in cooperation with the rice spoon 1.

[0055] The cooking appliance 5 includes a pot body 51, which is provided with a second plug 4 matched with the first slot 2 of the above-mentioned rice spoon 1, and the rice spoon 1 is configured to be fixed to the pot body 51 via the plug-in cooperation of the first slot 2 and the second plug 4.

[0056] Specifically, the second plug 4 has a third end 41 and a fourth end 42, and the cross-sectional area of the second plug 4 gradually increases from the third end 41 to the fourth end 42; when the rice spoon 1 is plugged into the pot body 51, the third end 41 is plugged into the fastening section 21 of the first slot 2, and the fourth end 42 is at least partially located in the guiding section 22 of the first slot 2.

[0057] In this way, the third end 41 of the second plug 4 is plugged into the fastening section 21 of the first slot 2 of the rice spoon 1, thereby fixing the rice spoon 1 to the second plug 4 of the pot body 51. And because the first slot 2 of the rice spoon 1 has a specific shape, when cooperating with the second plug 4 of the pot body 51, the second plug 4 can play a positioning role for the first slot 2, that is, a foolproof effect, so that the user can only fix the rice spoon 1 to the pot body 51 in a specific posture. It should be noted that the second plug 4 can be arranged at any position on the pot body 51, such as the outer side wall of the pot body 51.

[0058] Further, the pot body 51 is provided with a frame portion 6, the frame portion 6 has an inner frame hole 61, the second insertion block 4 is arranged on the hole wall of the inner frame hole 61, when the rice ladle 1 is inserted and fixed on the second insertion block 4, the end of the handle 12 of the rice ladle 1 away from the spoon portion 11 and the side surface away from the first insertion slot 2 abuts against the inner wall of the inner frame hole 61 opposite to the second insertion block 4, that is, the handle 12 abuts against the inner wall of the inner frame hole 61, so that the rice ladle 1 is placed more stably. It should be noted that the second insertion block 4 can be arranged on any hole wall of the inner frame hole 61 of the frame portion 6, and the shape of the inner frame hole 61 can be any shape suitable for being attached to or formed on the pot body 51, such as a rectangle, a square, an oval, etc.

[0059] In addition, in order to facilitate the hanging of the rice ladle 1, the handle 12 is provided with a through hole 3, the through hole 3 is arranged between the first insertion slot 2 and the spoon portion 11, and the through hole 3 is in communication with the fastening segment 21. In this way, the third end portion 41 of the second insertion block 4 can be at least partially inserted into the area of the through hole 3.

[0060] Embodiment 2

[0061] The present embodiment provides a rice ladle, which comprises a spoon portion 11 and a handle 12, wherein,

[0062] The handle 12 extends in a longitudinal direction and is connected to the spoon portion 11, and at least one first insertion block (not shown) is arranged at an end of the handle 12 away from the spoon portion 11.

[0063] The first insertion block has a first end portion and a second end portion, the first end portion is located between the spoon portion 11 and the second end portion, and when viewed in the longitudinal direction, the cross-sectional area of the first end portion is greater than that of the second end portion.

[0064] In addition, the present embodiment also provides a cooking appliance 5, which comprises a pot body 51, and the pot body 51 is provided with a second insertion slot (not shown) matched with the first insertion block of the rice ladle 1 of the present embodiment, and the rice ladle 1 is configured to be fixed to the pot body 51 through the plug-in cooperation of the first insertion block and the second insertion slot.

[0065] The difference between the rice ladle 1 provided by the present embodiment and the rice ladle 1 provided by Embodiment 1 is that, in the present embodiment, the second insertion block 4 on the pot body 51 in Embodiment 1 is arranged on the handle 12 to form the first insertion block on the rice ladle 1 in the present embodiment, and the first insertion slot 2 on the rice ladle 1 in Embodiment 1 is arranged on the pot body 51 to form the second insertion slot in the present embodiment. In other words, the positions of the first insertion slot 2 and the second insertion block 4 in Embodiment 1 are interchanged to form the rice ladle 1 and the cooking appliance 5 in the present embodiment.

[0066] In the embodiment, the first plug block has the same shape structure as the second plug block 4, and the second plug slot has the same shape structure as the first plug slot 2, which will not be described herein.

[0067] When the rice spoon 1 is fixed on the pot body 51, the spoon part 11 of the rice spoon 1 is vertically upward, at this time, the first plug block is matched with the second plug slot, the second end part of the first plug block is inserted and matched with the fastening segment 21 of the second plug slot, and the first end part of the first plug block is at least partially located in the guide segment 22 of the second plug slot.

[0068] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this, any skilled person in the art can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the present application, and these modifications or replacements should be covered in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
