Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tableware technology, specifically an integrated tableware design that combines the functions of a soup spoon and a strainer. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life, when enjoying soups, people often need to use both a ladle and a slotted spoon to scoop out the broth and easily remove the ingredients. However, traditionally these are separate tools, requiring frequent switching, which is not only inconvenient but can also cause chaos at the table. Therefore, there is an urgent need in the market for an integrated utensil that can both scoop soup and easily remove ingredients. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated soup strainer, which aims to solve the problem of inconvenience in using soup ladles and strainers separately in the prior art. Through ingenious design, the functions of soup ladle and strainer are perfectly combined, improving dining efficiency and convenience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0005] An integrated soup strainer includes:

[0006] A circular rim;

[0007] A ladle portion located directly below the edge of the spoon is used to scoop up soup.

[0008] The lower end face of the spoon edge is connected to the upper end face of the soup spoon by multiple equally spaced hollow connectors to form a surrounding hollow area. This hollow area allows soup to pass through while blocking larger ingredients from falling, thus forming a strainer.

[0009] A handle attached to the outside of the spoon is ergonomically designed for easy gripping and operation.

[0010] The soup ladle and the strainer are integrally formed by the aforementioned hollow connector, requiring no additional assembly.

[0011] Furthermore, the hollow connector is a slender strip or an arc shape, and its quantity, shape and distribution are designed according to actual needs to ensure structural stability and the realization of the strainer function.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the ladle is designed to be flat or slightly convex to facilitate stable placement on a table or scooping soup from a container.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. Practicality: This utility model integrates the functions of a soup ladle and a strainer, simplifying the switching of tools during the dining process and improving dining efficiency.

[0015] 2. Convenience: The handle design makes the grip more secure, reduces the risk of slipping during use, and improves the ease of use.

[0016] 3. Aesthetics: The unique hollow design and handle shape not only fulfill the functional requirements, but also give the product a unique visual effect and enhance the taste of dining culture.

[0017] 4. Durability: The one-piece molded structure reduces the risk of parts becoming loose or lost, extending the service life. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram (I) of an integrated soup strainer according to the present invention;

[0019] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram (II) of the structure of an integrated soup strainer according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0021] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should be noted that if terms such as "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," or "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the utility model product is in use, they are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. Furthermore, terms such as "first," "second," and "third" are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0022] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "sag" does not imply that the component must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal relative to "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0023] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, "a plurality of" means at least two.

[0024] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] Example:

[0026] An integrated soup strainer, characterized in that:

[0027] Structural components:

[0028] The circular rim of the spoon is 10.

[0029] The soup spoon 20, located directly below the rim 10, has a flat or slightly convex bottom design to facilitate stable placement on a table or scooping soup from a container.

[0030] A handle 30 is attached to the outside of the spoon rim 10.

[0031] Hollow Design: The lower end of the spoon edge 10 and the upper end of the soup spoon 20 adopt a hollow design, that is, multiple hollow connectors 40 are set around it at equal intervals. These connectors allow soup to pass through while blocking food from falling, forming a strainer 50. The hollow connectors 40 are slender strips or arcs, and their number, shape and distribution are designed according to actual needs to ensure structural stability and the realization of the strainer function.

[0032] Handle design: A handle 30 is connected to the outer side of the spoon edge 10 for easy gripping. The handle design conforms to the principles of ergonomics, allowing users to easily grasp it during use and improving comfort and convenience.

[0033] Integrated construction: The soup spoon and the strainer are integrally formed by the hollow connector, eliminating the need for additional assembly. This ensures ease of use while also enhancing the product's durability and aesthetics.

[0034] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto.
