Abstract

To provide a boiled egg peeling set which comprises a place for placing a boiled egg, a part for cracking the boiled egg shell, and a tool for peeling the boiled egg shell, so that a person can easily peel the boiled egg shell with the other hand even when one hand cannot be used due to an accident or illness. [Solution] The device comprises a cylindrical container with a depth shorter than the minor axis of a boiled egg to limit the area in which the boiled egg rolls when the shell is peeled, and an inner diameter longer than the major axis of the boiled egg but shorter than 1.5 times the major axis, and a three- or four-sided shell peeling plate with two or three straight sides and one convex curved side.

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] To provide a tool for making it easier to peel a boiled egg with one hand even when one hand is unable to be used due to accident or illness. [Background technology]

[0002] A handheld tool for cracking and peeling boiled eggs was invented, but there was no description of how to hold the boiled egg in place. There was no tool set that allowed the user to place a container for boiled eggs, a tool for cracking boiled eggs, and a tool for peeling boiled eggs all on the table. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Mito 3017048 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] To propose a set consisting of a place for placing boiled eggs, a part for cracking the shells of boiled eggs, and a tool for peeling the shells of boiled eggs, which allows a person to easily peel the shells of boiled eggs with the other hand even when the other hand cannot be used due to an accident or illness. [Means for solving the problem]

[0005] The boiled egg shell peeling set comprises a cylindrical container having a depth shorter than the minor axis of the boiled egg and an inner diameter longer than the major axis of the boiled egg and shorter than 1.5 times the major axis for limiting the range in which the boiled egg rolls when the shell of the boiled egg is peeled, and a triangular or quadrilateral shell peeling board with two or three straight sides and one convex curved side. Effect of the Invention

[0006] By using the boiled egg peeling set of this invention, you can crack and peel boiled eggs with one hand, so you can perform these tasks even if you are unable to use one hand due to an accident or illness. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0007] [Figure 1] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of one embodiment of a cylindrical container of the boiled egg shell peeling set of the present invention. [Diagram 2] FIG. 2 is a plan view of one embodiment of a shell peeling board of the boiled egg shell peeling set of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] The cylindrical container of the boiled egg peeling set of the present invention can be made of bamboo, but the material is not limited to bamboo. The shell peeling board of the boiled egg peeling set of the present invention can be made of synthetic resin, but the material is not limited to synthetic resin. EXAMPLES

[0009] A bamboo tube with an outer diameter of 10 cm, an inner diameter of 8 cm, and a depth of 4 cm, and a 1.5 mm thick, quadrilateral peeler with straight sides of 5 cm, 11.5 cm, and 11.5 cm and a semicircular side with a radius of 2.5 cm were cut from a polypropylene container.The pointed tip of a boiled egg was struck twice against the top corner of the outer wall of the container to create a crack.After 26 minutes, cracks were created throughout the egg, and it was confirmed that the egg could be peeled by inserting a shell peeling board into the cracked area, all with one hand. [Industrial Applicability]

[0010] The boiled egg peeling set of this invention allows people to peel boiled eggs even if they are unable to use one hand due to an accident or illness, so demand is expected to grow among single-person households.

Claims

[Claim 1] The boiled egg shell peeling set comprises a cylindrical container having a depth shorter than the minor axis of the boiled egg and an inner diameter longer than the major axis of the boiled egg and shorter than 1.5 times the major axis for limiting the range in which the boiled egg rolls when the shell of the boiled egg is peeled, and a triangular or quadrilateral shell peeling board having two or three straight sides and one convex curved side.
