Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rice spoon technology, specifically a vertical magnetic rice spoon. Background Technology
[0002] The proper disposal of rice scoops after use is a major concern in daily life. People want a quick and easy way to keep their rice scoops clean and hygienic.
[0003] In existing technologies, there are two main design approaches to solve the problem of standing rice scoops upright, but both have obvious drawbacks:
[0004] Widened base design at the bottom of the handle: This design attempts to make the rice spoon stand upright by widening the base at the bottom of the handle. However, due to the inherent characteristics of the rice spoon, the base of the handle cannot be larger than the "rice leaf" part of the spoon, and rice grains inevitably stick to the rice leaf, which increases the weight of the rice leaf and creates a top-heavy situation. This design often causes the rice spoon to tip over during use, resulting in the rice leaf part touching the countertop and causing hygiene problems.
[0005] The design utilizes the principle of a roly-poly toy: This design aims to prevent the rice spoon from becoming top-heavy. However, according to the roly-poly principle, the higher the rice spoon, the less stable its center of gravity, requiring a larger and heavier base, which makes the spoon too bulky. Furthermore, traditional rice spoons designed based on the roly-poly principle are usually quite short, resulting in a poor grip. Additionally, during use, it was found that when rice leaves get stuck to the bottom, the top-heavy spoon will tip over, causing the rice leaves to touch the countertop, creating a hygiene problem.
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention aims to provide a vertical magnetic rice spoon, which, while maintaining sufficient length and comfortable use, allows users to easily and stably place the rice spoon upright after serving rice. Even if the rice leaves are covered with a lot of rice grains, the rice spoon will not tip over due to being top-heavy, thus keeping the rice spoon clean and hygienic and facilitating its reuse during rice serving. Utility Model Content
[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a vertical magnetic rice spoon.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

Therefore, the following detailed embodiments and accompanying drawings are merely illustrative descriptions of the technical solution of this utility model and should not be considered as the entirety of this utility model or as limitations or restrictions on the technical solution of this utility model.
[0032] Example
[0033] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the upright magnetic rice spoon includes:
[0034] Magnetic base plate 1: Magnetic, made of permanent magnet ferrite material, possessing durable and stable magnetism. Its shape can be a rectangular plate or a ring, allowing for selection based on kitchen decor and personal preference. The magnetic base plate 1 uses magnetism to attract the iron sheet 4, thus securing the rice spoon body 3.
[0035] Adhesive layer 2: Located on the lower surface of the magnetic base plate 1, used to fix the magnetic base plate 1 to a smooth surface, such as a refrigerator or cabinet. Release paper is attached to the lower surface of adhesive layer 2; it needs to be peeled off to expose the adhesive surface for pasting.
[0036] Rice spoon body 3: Attached to the upper surface of the magnetic base plate 1, it is the main operating part for daily rice serving. The end of its handle away from the spoon body is designed in a trumpet shape, and the contact part with the magnetic base plate 1 is the part with the largest diameter. This unique design increases the contact area between the iron sheet 4 and the magnetic base plate 1, thereby enhancing the adsorption stability.
[0037] Metal plate 4: Embedded inside the end of the handle of the rice spoon body 3 away from the spoon body, the magnetic attraction between it and the magnetic base plate 1 is used to detachably fix the rice spoon body 3 to the magnetic base plate 1, so that it can be easily taken out and stored at any time.
[0038] First, the adhesive layer 2 plays a crucial role in the installation of the rice spoon. The adhesive layer 2 is pre-attached to the lower surface of the magnetic base plate 1, and release paper protects the adhesive surface to prevent it from becoming sticky due to dirt when not in use. When the user needs to install the rice spoon, they peel off the release paper to expose the adhesive surface, using its adhesiveness to fix the magnetic base plate 1 to a smooth surface such as a refrigerator or cabinet, providing a stable mounting base for the rice spoon body 3.
[0039] Next, the magnetic base plate 1 and the iron sheet 4 interact to fix and separate the rice spoon body 3. The magnetic base plate 1 is made of permanent magnet ferrite material, which has a long-lasting and stable magnetism. The iron sheet 4 is embedded inside the end of the rice spoon body 3 that is away from the spoon body. This end is designed in a trumpet shape, and the contact part with the magnetic base plate 1 is the part with the largest diameter. This design increases the contact area between the iron sheet 4 and the magnetic base plate 1. When the rice spoon body 3 is close to the magnetic base plate 1, a magnetic attraction force is generated between the magnetic base plate 1 and the iron sheet 4. With this magnetic attraction force, the rice spoon body 3 can be firmly attached to the magnetic base plate 1, achieving vertical fixed storage. When the user needs to use the rice spoon, only a certain external force needs to be applied to overcome the magnetic attraction force to easily remove the rice spoon body 3 from the magnetic base plate 1. After use, the rice spoon body 3 can be brought close to the magnetic base plate 1 and fixed and stored again under the action of magnetic attraction force, which is convenient and quick.
[0040] Magnetic fixing mechanism
[0041] When the rice spoon body 3 approaches the magnetic base plate 1, the iron sheet 4 and the magnetic base plate 1 generate a magnetic attraction force, causing the rice spoon body 3 to be vertically attached to the base plate. The magnetic attraction force counteracts the shift in the center of gravity of the rice spoon caused by holding rice. Even if rice grains adhere to the spoon body, increasing its weight, the magnetic force and the contact area advantage of the trumpet-shaped structure can still maintain the stability of the adsorption.
[0042] Anti-tipping balance design
[0043] Physical support and magnetic synergy: The largest diameter contact surface at the bottom of the trumpet-shaped handle provides the basic support area, which, together with the magnetic attraction, forms a dual stable structure of "physical support + magnetic traction" to counteract the "top-heavy" torque caused by the weight of the rice grains.
[0044] Dynamic balance adjustment: When the center of gravity of the spoon shifts, the magnetic attraction generates a reverse pull, automatically adjusting the posture of the spoon to prevent the spoon from contacting the countertop and maintain hygiene.
[0045] Solving the problem of top-heavy tipping: The thin iron plate embedded in the bottom of the rice spoon and the magnetic attraction of the magnetic sticker, combined with the round flat design at the bottom, can effectively counteract the unbalanced force caused by rice grains sticking to the center of gravity, preventing the rice spoon from tipping over and rice leaves from touching the countertop, thus maintaining hygiene.
[0046] Ensuring comfort and length: While achieving stable standing, it does not require additional weight at the bottom like a roly-poly toy design, ensuring that the rice spoon has sufficient length and a good feel, conforming to daily usage habits.
[0047] Enhanced placement convenience: After serving rice, users simply need to bring the rice spoon base close to the magnetic sticker, and it will automatically and securely adhere with the magnetic force. The placement process is quick and easy, without the need for precise alignment or angle adjustment.
[0048] Enhanced anti-interference capability: The magnetic attraction allows the rice spoon to resist external unstable factors such as table vibration and maintain its upright position, which significantly improves stability compared to traditional designs.
[0049] Adaptable to various usage scenarios: The magnetic sticker can be pasted on commonly used food serving surfaces, flexibly adapting to different kitchen environments, and is easy to install without relying on tools.
[0050] The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the content described above. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the above embodiments without departing from the technical concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and variations should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
