Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of soup spoon technology, specifically a stainless steel soup spoon that is easy to store. Background Technology

[0002] Stainless steel spoons are common utensils in modern kitchens. Their technological development relies on the advancements in metallurgy since the 20th century. The invention of food-grade stainless steel solved the problems of oxidation and corrosion in traditional metal cookware. The passivation film formed by chromium significantly improves corrosion resistance and hygiene. In terms of manufacturing processes, stamping technology enables high-precision shaping of the spoon's curved surface. Combined with mechanical polishing or electrolytic polishing processes, this ensures a smooth and easy-to-clean surface. The handles often use hollow tube welding or one-piece stamping designs.

[0003] Existing stainless steel ladles use a one-piece molding process, with the spoon body and handle welded or stamped at right angles or obtuse angles. This results in the handle length being fixed, making it difficult to adapt to drawers or cutlery boxes of different depths. The fixed handle length further limits the storage flexibility of the ladle. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a stainless steel soup spoon that is easy to store, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A stainless steel soup spoon that is easy to store includes a soup spoon with a connecting component on the right side and a handle for holding on the right side of the connecting component. The soup spoon and the handle are detachable through the connecting component. An adjustment component is provided on the right side of the handle, and a hanging ring for hanging the soup spoon is provided on the right side of the adjustment component. The adjustment component is used to adjust the length of the handle.

[0007] Preferably, the adjustment component includes a first sliding groove formed on the right side surface of the handle, a first connecting plate slidably connected in the first sliding groove, a second sliding groove formed on the right side surface of the first connecting plate, a second connecting plate slidably connected in the second sliding groove, a suspension ring fixedly connected to the right side surface of the second connecting plate, guide grooves symmetrically formed on the front and rear outer walls of the second and first connecting plates, two sets of positioning posts slidably connected in each guide groove, and springs provided in each guide groove, with both ends of the springs fixed to the inner ends of the two sets of positioning posts respectively, and two sets of positioning holes formed on the inner walls of the first and second sliding grooves on the corresponding side of the outer end surfaces of the two sets of positioning posts.

[0008] Preferably, the outer end of the positioning post is designed in a semi-circular shape, and the surface of the outer end of the positioning post is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0009] Preferably, the front and rear end surfaces of the second connecting plate and the first connecting plate are provided with grooves, and the grooves are all designed in a semi-circular arc shape.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting component includes an assembly groove formed on the top surface of the handle, an assembly block slidably connected in the assembly groove, a soup spoon fixedly connected to the side of the assembly block facing the soup spoon, two sets of limiting grooves symmetrically formed on the front and rear end surfaces of the assembly groove, threaded rods fixedly connected to the outer walls of the assembly blocks in both sets of limiting grooves, and limiting blocks threadedly connected to both sets of threaded rods.

[0011] Preferably, the assembly block is T-shaped, and the assembly groove has a through hole that matches the assembly block.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This utility model allows the first connecting plate to slide in the first sliding groove, and the second connecting plate to slide in the second sliding groove. Then, the spring's restoring force pushes the positioning pin to reset and slide in the guide groove, so that the positioning pin passes through the positioning hole, thereby achieving the purpose of extending and retracting the handle. This allows the staff to adjust the length of the handle according to their needs. At the same time, the extendable handle also makes it easier for the staff to store the soup spoon, further improving the storage flexibility of the soup spoon.

[0014] 2. This utility model uses a sliding connection between the assembly block and the assembly groove, so that the assembly block drives the threaded rod to slide into the limiting groove. Then, the limiting block rotates on the threaded rod and rotates into the limiting groove, which makes it easy for workers to disassemble and assemble the ladle and the handle. When the handle is damaged, a new handle can be reassembled to prevent the ladle from being unusable due to handle damage, which would increase the cost of using the ladle.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a stainless steel soup spoon that is easy to store includes a soup spoon 1. A connecting component 4 is provided on the right side of the soup spoon 1, and a handle 2 for holding is provided on the right side of the connecting component 4. The soup spoon 1 and the handle 2 form a detachable design through the connecting component 4. An adjustment component 3 is provided on the right side of the handle 2, and a hanging ring 5 for hanging the soup spoon 1 is provided on the right side of the adjustment component 3. The adjustment component 3 is used to adjust the length of the handle 2.

[0024] The adjustable component 3 allows for adjustment of the length of the handle 2, making it easier for staff to store the ladle 1. The connecting component 4 allows for easy disassembly and assembly of the ladle 1 and the handle 2. When the handle 2 is damaged, a new handle 2 can be reassembled to prevent damage to the handle 2 from rendering the ladle 1 unusable, thus reducing the cost of using the ladle 1.

[0025] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the adjustment component 3 includes a first sliding groove 31 opened on the right side surface of the handle 2, a first connecting plate 32 slidably connected in the first sliding groove 31, a second sliding groove 33 opened on the right side surface of the first connecting plate 32, a second connecting plate 34 slidably connected in the second sliding groove 33, a suspension ring 5 fixedly connected to the right side surface of the second connecting plate 34, guide grooves 35 symmetrically opened on the front and rear outer walls of the second connecting plate 34 and the first connecting plate 32, two sets of positioning posts 36 slidably connected in the guide grooves 35, and springs 37 are provided in the guide grooves 35. The two ends of the springs 37 are respectively fixed on the inner ends of the two sets of positioning posts 36, and two sets of positioning holes 38 are opened on the inner walls of the first sliding groove 31 and the second sliding groove 33 on the corresponding side of the outer end surface of the two sets of positioning posts 36.

[0026] The first connecting plate 32 slides through the first sliding groove 31, and the second connecting plate 34 slides through the second sliding groove 33. This causes the first connecting plate 32 and the second connecting plate 34 to drive the positioning post 36 to slide on the inner walls of the first sliding groove 31 and the second sliding groove 33 until it aligns with a set of positioning holes 38. Then, the restoring force of the spring 37 pushes the positioning post 36 to return to its original position and slide within the guide groove 35, thus allowing the positioning post 36 to pass through the positioning hole 38, thereby achieving the purpose of extending the handle 2. Then, by sliding the positioning post 36 into the guide groove 35, the spring 37 is squeezed and compressed by the positioning post 36. At the same time, the first connecting plate 32 and the second connecting plate 34 drive the positioning post 36 to slide until it aligns with another set of positioning holes 38, causing the spring 37 to push the positioning post 36 through the positioning hole 38, thereby achieving the purpose of shortening the handle 2. This allows the staff to adjust the length of the handle 2 according to their needs. At the same time, the telescopic handle 2 also makes it easier for the staff to store the soup spoon 1, further improving the storage flexibility of the soup spoon 1.

[0027] In practice, the outer end of the positioning post 36 is designed in a semi-circular shape, and the surface of the outer end of the positioning post 36 is provided with anti-slip texture. By sliding the outer end of the positioning post 36 to fit against the inner wall of the first sliding groove 31, and then pulling the first connecting plate 32 away from the first sliding groove 31, the first connecting plate 32 drives the first sliding groove 31 to squeeze the outer wall of the positioning post 36, so that the positioning post 36 slides into the guide groove 35, thereby achieving the purpose of quickly releasing the sliding limit of the first connecting plate 32.

[0028] In practice, the front and rear surfaces of the second connecting plate 34 and the first connecting plate 32 are provided with grooves, and the grooves are designed in a semi-circular arc shape, which makes it easy for the staff to hold the first connecting plate 32 and the second connecting plate 34 and prevents the hands from slipping during the use of the first connecting plate 32 and the second connecting plate 34.

[0029] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the connecting component 4 includes an assembly groove 41 opened on the top surface of the handle 2, an assembly block 42 is slidably connected in the assembly groove 41, a soup spoon 1 is fixedly connected to the side of the assembly block 42 facing the soup spoon 1, two sets of limiting grooves 43 are symmetrically opened on the front and rear end surfaces of the assembly groove 41, threaded rods 44 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the assembly blocks 42 in the two sets of limiting grooves 43, and limiting blocks 45 are threadedly connected to the two sets of threaded rods 44.

[0030] The assembly block 42 is slidably connected to the assembly groove 41, so that the assembly block 42 drives the threaded rod 44 to slide into the limiting groove 43. Then, the limiting block 45 rotates threadedly on the threaded rod 44 and rotates into the limiting groove 43, thereby achieving the purpose of connecting the ladle 1 and the handle 2. The limiting block 45 rotates threadedly on the threaded rod 44 and rotates out of the limiting groove 43, and then the assembly block 42 slides out of the assembly groove 41. This makes it easy for workers to disassemble and assemble the ladle 1 and the handle 2. When the handle 2 is damaged, a new handle 2 can be reassembled to prevent the ladle 1 from being unable to be used properly due to the damage to the handle 2, which would increase the cost of using the ladle 1.

[0031] In practice, the assembly block 42 is designed in a T-shape, and the assembly groove 41 has a through hole that matches the assembly block 42. This allows the assembly block 42 to fit fully with the assembly groove 41, enabling the assembly block 42 to slide linearly within the assembly groove 41. This prevents the assembly block 42 from becoming loose within the assembly groove 41, which could lead to an unstable connection between the ladle 1 and the handle 2, and consequently affect the stability of the ladle 1 and the handle 2 in use.

[0032] In use, the two sets of positioning pins 36 are first pressed into the guide grooves 35, and the positioning pins 36 slide within the guide grooves 35, compressing the spring 37. Then, the first connecting plate 32 and the second connecting plate 34 slide away from the handle 2 within the second sliding groove 33 and the first sliding groove 31, causing the positioning pins 36 to slide within the first sliding groove 31 and the second sliding groove 33 until the positioning pins 36 are aligned with another set of positioning holes 38. At this point, the restoring force of the spring 37 pushes the positioning pins 36 into place. The column 36 slides back in the guide groove 35, so that the positioning column 36 passes through the positioning hole 38, thereby achieving the purpose of extending the handle 2. Then, by pressing the positioning column 36 into the guide groove 35, the second connecting plate 34 and the first connecting plate 32 slide into the first sliding groove 31 and the second sliding groove 33, and align the positioning column 36 with another set of positioning holes 38. Then, the spring 37 pushes the positioning column 36 to slide in the guide groove 35 and pass through the positioning hole 38, thereby achieving the purpose of shortening the handle 2, so that the staff can store the soup spoon 1.

[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
