Description

A food cup Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food packaging technology, and in particular to a food cup for holding yogurt with milk skin. Background Technology

[0002] Milk skin yogurt has gained widespread attention for its unique texture, and more and more people enjoy eating it. Milk skin yogurt has a thick, pale yellow milk skin on top, with a thicker layer of yogurt underneath. It's made by boiling the milk, which solidifies the fat into a milk skin, and then using an incomplete fermentation process to make the yogurt from the layer beneath the milk skin.

[0003] In the existing technology, the cups for holding milk skin yogurt are made of plastic with thin walls. A plastic lid is then sealed on top of the cup, and the lid needs to be removed from the top of the cup before consumption. Since milk skin yogurt is thicker than regular yogurt, it needs to be eaten with a spoon. Therefore, for convenience, a detachable spoon is installed on the inner wall of the lid, that is, on the side close to the yogurt. After removing the lid from the cup, the spoon is then removed from the lid for use.

[0004] The applicant has discovered that the existing technology has at least the following technical problems: First, the plastic lid is easy to cut the consumer's hand when opening it, which may cause injury; second, the yogurt will soften due to being left outdoors for a long time, and when the yogurt cup is tilted, the yogurt will stick to the spoon, and the consumer may get the yogurt on their hands when removing the spoon, causing discomfort. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a food cup to solve the technical problem that spoons in the prior art are easily stained with yogurt.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model provides a food cup, comprising a cup body, a cup lid, a baffle, and a folding spoon; wherein:

[0008] The cup has a cavity for holding yogurt with milk skin;

[0009] The cup lid can be detachably fastened to the open top of the cup body;

[0010] The baffle is a hollow cuboid structure with an opening on one side and an internal storage cavity. The baffle is fixed to the inner wall of the cup lid, and the opening is parallel to the top wall of the cup lid.

[0011] The folding spoon is detachably installed inside the storage cavity.

[0012] The food cup provided by this utility model has a baffle inside the cup lid, and then a folding spoon is fixed inside the baffle, thereby forming a barrier between the spoon and the yogurt, avoiding the problem of yogurt sticking to the spoon and making hands sticky. In addition, the baffle can also be used to put other nuts, which can be added to the yogurt to adjust the flavor when eating.

[0013] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model, a locking structure for fixing the folding spoon is provided on the inner wall of the side of the cover away from the opening.

[0015] This invention features a locking structure at the bottom of the storage cavity, which secures the front end of the folding spoon, making it easy to pull the spoon out from the opening for use.

[0016] As a further improvement of this utility model, the locking structure includes two locking plates arranged side by side; a locking part for locking the folding spoon is formed between the two locking plates.

[0017] The locking structure of this utility model consists of side-by-side locking plates. Considering that the front end of the folding spoon has a slightly larger area and is curved, a plate-shaped locking structure with a slightly larger area is used to lock and limit the spoon part in order to ensure the locking effect and improve the locking stability.

[0018] As a further improvement of this utility model, the surfaces of the two card plates are arranged horizontally, or the surfaces of the two card plates are arranged vertically.

[0019] When the card plate is arranged horizontally, the folding spoon is horizontally inserted into the locking structure. At this time, due to the small thickness of the folding spoon, space can be saved and the distance between the cover and the yogurt surface can be increased. When the card plate is arranged vertically, the folding spoon is vertically inserted into the locking structure. Since the width of the folding spoon is greater than its thickness, the cover needs to be thicker and the distance between it and the yogurt surface is smaller. However, when the folding spoon is vertically inserted, it is easy to pull out and convenient for hand force.

[0020] As a further improvement of this utility model, a limiting ring is provided on the inner wall of the cup lid, which abuts against the top edge of the cup body.

[0021] This invention provides a limiting ring on the cup lid, allowing for timely monitoring of the lid's engagement status as it snaps into place on the top edge of the cup.

[0022] As a further improvement of this utility model, the cup lid is provided with several disassembly aid structures.

[0023] This invention increases the gripping area by setting an auxiliary disassembly structure on the cup lid, making it easier to disassemble the lid, reducing the force required, and preventing scratches caused by excessive force on the thin cup body and lid.

[0024] As a further improvement of this utility model, the disassembly aid structure includes an even number of protrusions disposed on the outer wall of the cup lid; all the protrusions are symmetrically arranged with the center of the cup lid as the center.

[0025] This invention features an even number of protrusions on the outer wall of the cup lid, making it easier for fingers to grip and reducing the difficulty of removing the lid.

[0026] As a further improvement of this utility model, the boss is provided on the lower part of the outer wall of the cup lid.

[0027] This invention reduces the force required to remove the lid by placing a protrusion on the lower part of the outer wall of the cup lid and utilizing the lever principle.

[0028] As a further improvement of this utility model, the boss is provided at the lower edge of the cup lid.

[0029] This invention places the protrusion at the lower edge of the cup lid, which is the most convenient position for applying force and is also the optimal embodiment, requiring the least amount of force to remove the lid. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0040] As shown in Figures 1-7, this utility model provides a food cup for holding yogurt with milk skin; specifically, the food cup includes a cup body 1, a cup lid 2, a baffle 4, and a folding spoon 3; wherein:

[0041] As shown in Figure 4, the cup body 1 has a cavity for holding milk skin yogurt; the top edge of the cup body 1 is provided with an outer edge for abutting against the cup lid 2.

[0042] As shown in Figures 1, 2 and 5, the cup lid 2 can be detachably fastened to the top opening of the cup body 1; specifically, the cup lid 2 has a stepped portion with a slightly larger radius, and the inner diameter of the top of the stepped portion is adapted to the outer diameter of the outer edge, so that the top of the stepped portion can be snapped onto the outer edge to achieve a tight fastening connection between the cup body 1 and the cup lid 2.

[0043] As shown in Figure 5, the baffle 4 is a hollow cuboid structure with an opening on one side and a storage cavity inside. The baffle 4 is fixed to the inner wall of the cup lid 2, and the opening is parallel to the top wall of the cup lid 2. As shown in Figure 5, at this time, the opening of the baffle 4 is located on the side of the folded position of the folding spoon 3.

[0044] The folding spoon 3 is detachably installed inside the storage cavity.

[0045] In use, after opening the cup lid 2, flip the cup lid 2 over, then grasp the folded position of the folding spoon 3 with your hand and pull it outwards to remove the folding spoon 3. It should be noted that, in order to facilitate the insertion of fingers or operation, the opening of the cover 4 can be enlarged to allow fingers to enter, or the length of the cover 4 can be set to be slightly smaller than the length of the folded spoon 3, so that part of the folding spoon 3 is exposed in the storage cavity, thereby facilitating operation; the present invention does not specifically limit the form adopted.

[0046] The food cup provided by this utility model has a baffle 4 set inside the cup lid 2, and then the folding spoon 3 is fixed inside the baffle 4, thereby forming a barrier between the spoon and the yogurt, avoiding the problem of yogurt sticking to the spoon and making hands sticky. In addition, the baffle 4 can also be used to place other nuts, so that nuts can be added to the yogurt to adjust the flavor when eating.

[0047] As shown in Figure 5, as an optional embodiment of this utility model, the inner wall of the cover 4 away from the opening is provided with a locking structure for fixing the folding spoon 3.

[0048] This utility model provides a locking structure at the bottom of the storage cavity, which can fix the front end of the folding spoon 3, making it easy to pull the folding spoon 3 out from the opening for disassembly and use.

[0049] Specifically, as shown in Figure 5, the locking structure includes two locking plates 41 arranged side by side; a locking part for locking the folding spoon 3 is formed between the two locking plates 41.

[0050] The locking structure of this utility model consists of locking plates 41 arranged side by side. Considering that the front spoon part of the folding spoon 3 has a slightly larger area and is curved, a plate-shaped locking structure with a slightly larger area is used to lock and limit the spoon part in order to ensure the locking effect and improve the locking stability.

[0051] As an optional embodiment of this utility model, as shown in Figure 5, the surfaces of the two card plates 41 are arranged horizontally.

[0052] As another optional embodiment of this utility model, the surfaces of the two card plates 41 are arranged vertically (not shown in the accompanying drawings of this embodiment).

[0053] When the plate 41 is arranged horizontally, the folding spoon 3 is horizontally inserted into the locking structure. At this time, because the thickness of the folding spoon 3 is small, space can be saved and the distance between the baffle 4 and the yogurt surface can be increased. When the plate 41 is arranged vertically, the folding spoon 3 is vertically inserted into the locking structure. Since the width of the folding spoon 3 is greater than its thickness, the baffle 4 needs to be thicker and the distance between it and the yogurt surface is smaller. However, when the folding spoon 3 is vertically inserted, it is easy to pull out and convenient for hand force.

[0054] As shown in Figure 5, a limiting ring 21 is provided on the inner wall of the cup lid 2, which abuts against the top edge of the cup body 1.

[0055] Specifically, the limiting ring 21 is located at the top of the stepped part, that is, the limiting ring 21, which is formed in the form of a step between the stepped part and the side wall of the cup lid 2, can realize the prompt that it is locked in place.

[0056] This utility model provides a limiting ring 21 on the cup lid 2, which allows the system to promptly detect when the cup lid 2 is inserted into the top edge of the cup body 1.

[0057] As a further improvement of this utility model, as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 and 5, the cup lid 2 is provided with several disassembly aid structures.

[0058] This utility model increases the gripping area by setting an auxiliary disassembly structure on the cup lid 2, making it easier to disassemble the cup lid 2, reducing the force required, and preventing scratches caused by excessive force on the cup body 1 and the thin cup lid 2.

[0059] As a further improvement of this utility model, the disassembly aid structure includes an even number of protrusions 22 provided on the outer wall of the cup lid 2; all the protrusions 22 are symmetrically arranged with the center of the cup lid 2 as the center.

[0060] This invention provides an even number of protrusions 22 on the outer wall of the cup lid 2, which facilitates finger gripping and reduces the difficulty of removing the lid.

[0061] As an optional embodiment of this utility model, as shown in Figure 1, the boss 22 is provided on the lower part of the outer wall of the cup lid 2.

[0062] This invention reduces the force required to remove the lid by setting the protrusion 22 on the lower part of the outer wall of the cup lid 2 using the lever principle.

[0063] As another optional embodiment of this utility model, as shown in Figure 2, the boss 22 is provided at the lower edge of the cup lid 2.

[0064] The present invention places the protrusion 22 at the lower edge of the cup lid 2, which is the most convenient position for applying force and is also the optimal embodiment, requiring the least amount of force to remove the lid.

[0065] Figures 6 and 7 show the structural diagrams of the folding spoon 3 when unfolded and after folding. When the folding spoon 3 is placed inside the cover 4, the front spoon part of the folding spoon 3 is stuck between the two plates, thus forming a limiting and fixing effect on the folding spoon 3.
