Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily-use plastic products technology, and in particular to a bend-resistant plastic tableware. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of residents' quality of life and changes in consumption habits, plastic tableware has seen a continuous increase in demand in home, catering and outdoor scenarios due to its advantages such as "low cost, light weight and not easy to break". At the same time, the industry has put forward higher requirements for the performance of plastic tableware.

[0003] The current plastic tableware and related technologies on the market still have the following shortcomings, which provide room for improvement in the research and development of this device: 1. The connecting rod of traditional plastic spoons is mostly a smooth cylindrical or flat structure without reinforcement design. When the spoon head bears a load (such as scooping rice or noodles), the connection between the connecting rod and the spoon head and handle is prone to bending due to stress concentration. The surface of most plastic tableware handles is only treated with simple texture, or even smooth. After getting wet or oily, the coefficient of friction is greatly reduced, and it is easy to slip from the hand during use, which may cause burns from hot food. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a bend-resistant plastic tableware, which can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A bend-resistant plastic tableware includes a spoon body, a handle, and a connecting rod for connecting the spoon body and the handle. One end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the spoon body, and the other end is fixedly connected to the handle. The outer surface of the handle has several anti-slip grooves. A pull ring is fixedly connected to the end of the handle away from the connecting rod. The outer surface of the connecting rod has several weight-reducing grooves, and the outer surface of the connecting rod is also surrounded by a spiral reinforcing rib. The spiral reinforcing rib is integrally formed with the connecting rod.

[0007] Preferably, the anti-slip grooves are evenly distributed along the length of the handle, and the cross-section of the anti-slip grooves is arc-shaped.

[0008] The above solution involves: anti-slip grooves evenly distributed along the length of the handle with an arc-shaped cross-section, which allows for more even hand contact force and avoids localized slippage; the arc shape conforms to the curvature of the fingers, improving grip comfort; at the same time, the grooves can retain a small amount of water or oil, reducing hand slippage on the handle and further reducing the risk of hot food slipping and causing burns.

[0009] Preferably, the pull ring is elliptical in shape, and the inner wall surface of the pull ring is a smooth curved surface.

[0010] The above solution features an oval-shaped pull ring that fits snugly through the fingers, making it easy to hang and store, and preventing food from piling up and getting contaminated. The smooth, curved inner wall has no sharp edges, which prevents hands from getting scratched during use, reduces hard-to-clean areas, makes it easy to rinse off residue, and improves safety and ease of cleaning.

[0011] Preferably, a plurality of the weight-reducing grooves are arranged in a circular array around the central axis of the connecting rod, and the weight-reducing grooves extend along the length of the connecting rod.

[0012] The above solution involves a circular array of weight-reducing grooves extending along the length of the connecting rod. This uniformly reduces the weight of the tableware while forming a radial support structure, enhancing the torsional resistance of the connecting rod. The array distribution ensures more even stress distribution, preventing localized strength reduction caused by the grooves.

[0013] Preferably, the pitch of the spiral reinforcing rib is 1-1.5 times the diameter of the connecting rod, and the height of the spiral reinforcing rib gradually decreases from the end closer to the spoon body to the end closer to the handle.

[0014] The above solution involves matching the pitch of the spiral reinforcing ribs with the diameter of the connecting rod to ensure support density; the height decreases towards the handle end to accommodate the characteristics of high force on the spoon head and low force on the handle end, thereby enhancing the bending resistance while preventing the handle end from being too high and affecting the grip.

[0015] Preferably, the connection between the spoon body and the connecting rod is provided with an arc-shaped transition portion, the thickness of which is greater than the thickness of the spoon body and the connecting rod.

[0016] The above solution allows for a thicker curved transition section, which concentrates and disperses stress at the connection between the spoon head and the connecting rod, avoiding the problem of easy bending caused by traditional right-angle transitions. The curved design also reduces residue accumulation, improves cleanliness, and further extends the service life of the tableware.

[0017] Preferably, the handle has a tapered transition section at one end near the connecting rod, and the diameter of the tapered transition section gradually decreases from the handle toward the connecting rod.

[0018] The above solutions achieve the following: the tapered transition section makes the connection between the handle and the connecting rod smoother, avoiding stress concentration at the joint; the gradual diameter design adapts to the hand grip posture, reduces the abruptness when gripping, improves the comfort of use, and enhances the structural stability of the connection.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. In this utility model, a spiral reinforcing rib is provided around the outer surface of the connecting rod and integrally formed with the connecting rod, replacing the traditional smooth cylindrical or flat connecting rod. The spiral reinforcing rib can form an all-directional structural support, evenly distributing the load borne by the spoon head to the entire connecting rod, rather than concentrating it at the connection point; at the same time, the arc-shaped transition part between the spoon body and the connecting rod further alleviates stress concentration, effectively preventing bending of the connecting rod at the connection point with the spoon head and handle due to stress concentration, and significantly improving the durability of the tableware.

[0021] 2. In this utility model, to address the problem of insufficient anti-slip properties of traditional handles, this device has several anti-slip grooves evenly distributed along the length direction and with an arc-shaped cross-section on the outer surface of the handle. The arc-shaped anti-slip grooves can increase the contact friction area between the hand and the handle, and conform to the curvature of the fingers. Even if the handle is wet or oily, the groove structure can retain a certain coefficient of friction, preventing the hand from slipping on the handle. Compared with traditional simple textured or smooth handles, it can significantly reduce the probability of tableware slipping during use, thereby reducing the safety hazard of hot food burns, and is especially suitable for use by the elderly, children and other groups.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0031] A bend-resistant plastic tableware includes a spoon body 6, a handle 1, and a connecting rod 4 for connecting the spoon body 6 and the handle 1. One end of the connecting rod 4 is fixedly connected to the spoon body 6, and the other end is fixedly connected to the handle 1. The outer surface of the handle 1 is provided with several anti-slip grooves 2. A pull ring 3 is fixedly connected to the end of the handle 1 away from the connecting rod 4. The outer surface of the connecting rod 4 is provided with several weight-reducing grooves 5, and the outer surface of the connecting rod 4 is also surrounded by a spiral reinforcing rib 7, which is integrally formed with the connecting rod 4.

[0032] Through the above solution: when holding, the hand fits against the handle 1, and several anti-slip grooves 2 increase friction, while the arc-shaped grooves can hold a small amount of water or oil to prevent slipping; when taking food, the spoon body 6 transmits the force to the connecting rod 4, and the spiral reinforcing ribs 7 provide support and disperse axial and radial forces to prevent bending; the ring-shaped array of weight-reducing grooves 5 on the connecting rod 4 reduces weight while forming radial support, enhancing torsional resistance; when not in use, the pull ring 3 at the end of the handle 1 can be hung and stored. The whole system achieves a stable and durable use effect through anti-slip grooves, reinforcing ribs to resist bending, and weight-reducing grooves to balance weight and strength.

[0033] In this embodiment, several anti-slip grooves 2 are evenly distributed along the length of the handle 1, and the cross-section of the anti-slip grooves 2 is arc-shaped; the pull ring 3 is elliptical, and the inner wall surface of the pull ring 3 is a smooth curved surface; several weight-reducing grooves 5 are arranged in a circular array around the central axis of the connecting rod 4, and the weight-reducing grooves 5 extend along the length of the connecting rod 4; the pitch of the spiral reinforcing rib 7 is 1-1.5 times the diameter of the connecting rod 4, and the height of the spiral reinforcing rib 7 gradually decreases from the end near the spoon body 6 to the end near the handle 1; an arc-shaped transition part is provided at the connection between the spoon body 6 and the connecting rod 4, and the thickness of the arc-shaped transition part is greater than the thickness of the spoon body 6 and the connecting rod 4; a tapered transition section is provided at the end of the handle 1 near the connecting rod 4, and the diameter of the tapered transition section gradually decreases from the handle 1 to the connecting rod 4.

[0034] Through the above solutions: When gripping, the anti-slip grooves 2, evenly distributed along the length of the handle 1 with an arc-shaped cross-section, conform to the hand and increase friction to prevent slipping. The tapered transition section makes the connection between the handle and the connecting rod 4 smooth, improving grip comfort. When taking food, the force on the spoon body 6 is distributed to the connecting rod 4 through the thickened arc-shaped transition section. The spiral reinforcing ribs 7, with a pitch of 1-1.5 times the diameter and a height decreasing towards the handle end, precisely resist bending. The weight-reducing grooves 5, arranged in a ring and extending along the length, reduce weight while enhancing torsional resistance. When not in use, the oval-shaped pull ring 3 with a smooth inner wall makes it easy to hang and store without the risk of scratches.

[0035] It should be noted that this utility model is a type of bend-resistant plastic tableware. During use, firstly, no additional assembly is required; the complete tableware can be directly taken out. If stored in a hanging state, it can be removed from the hook using the oval-shaped, smooth-inner-walled pull ring 3, avoiding hand scratches. Check that the anti-slip groove 2 on the handle 1 is clean, ensuring no residue affects grip. With the hand resting on the handle 1, fingers naturally embed into the evenly distributed, arc-shaped anti-slip groove 2, increasing friction. Simultaneously, the tapered transition section of the handle 1 near the connecting rod 4 provides a smooth transition for the hand, improving grip comfort and preventing discomfort at the joint. When the spoon body 6 contacts food and applies force, the force is distributed through the thickened arc-shaped transition section at the connection between the spoon body 6 and the connecting rod 4, and then transmitted to the connecting rod 4. The pitch is 1-1.5 times the diameter of the connecting rod 4. The spiral reinforcing ribs 7, which decrease in height towards the handle end, provide bending resistance. The weight-reducing grooves 5, arranged in a ring and extending along the length, enhance torsional resistance, ensuring that the tableware does not deform during use. After cleaning the tableware, it can be hung on the hook by the pull ring 3 at the end of the handle 1 to avoid stacking and contamination. If it needs to be stored in a drawer, the pull ring 3 can also be used as a convenient grip for easy access.
