Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to an oyster chucking tool used in the shucking of oysters. [Background technology]
[0002] Although some oyster shucking has been mechanized, it is still done by hand. When using an oyster shucker, part of the shell is broken, and then the blade is inserted into the shell to remove the oyster meat. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0003] The people who work on shucking oysters vary in gender, age, build, experience, etc., but the equipment is not tailored to each individual, and there were no oyster-shucking tools that could be adjusted to a weight that was easy for each person to work with. [Means for solving the problem]
[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides an oyster-shooting tool used in the process of shucking oysters, characterized by a structure at the top of the tool that allows for weight adjustment, and a groove structure at the bottom of the handle of the tool that serves as a marker for cutting the handle, making it easy to fine-tune the weight. [Effects of the Invention]
[0005] Until now, oyster workers have not been able to find an oyster-shooting tool that is the right weight for them, but by using the oyster-shooting tool of this invention, the physical strain is reduced and work efficiency is improved. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0006] [Figure 1] This is a diagram showing three weights attached to the top of the metal pipe where the blade of the oyster-striking tool is installed in one embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 2] A drawing showing the length of the metal pipe where the blade of the oyster-snatching tool is attached in one embodiment of the present invention. [Figure 3] A drawing showing an embodiment of the present invention in which a groove structure is provided at the bottom of the handle of the oyster smasher, which serves as a cutting mark and allows for easy fine adjustment of the weight. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0007] To provide an oyster pounding tool used for oyster shucking work, which is provided with a weight-adjustable structure at the top of the tool, or a groove structure serving as a cutting mark and facilitating fine weight adjustment at the bottom of the handle of the tool, thereby reducing the physical burden on the oyster pounding worker with a tool of a weight suited to the worker and improving work efficiency. [Example]
[0008] Hereinafter, an embodiment will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0009] Figure 1 shows an example of the present invention, in which a weight (2) is fixed with a fixture (1) to the top of the metal pipe where the blade of the oyster-snatching tool is mounted. In this example, a washer is used as the weight for ease of fixing, but the material of the weight is not limited to a washer. For greater safety, the weight can be welded to the metal pipe (3) that secures the blade.
[0010] Figure 2 shows a metal pipe (4) whose weight has been changed by changing the length of the metal pipe section (3) where the blade of the oyster-snatching tool is attached. (A) shows a standard length, while (B) shows a weight-changed metal pipe that has been made longer than the standard length to add weight. The weight-changed metal pipe (4) can be changed by changing the length of the metal pipe, or by using metal materials with different specific gravities to make it lighter or heavier, or by combining the length of the metal pipe and the metal material.
[0011] Figure 3 shows a diagram of a groove structure forming part (7) at the bottom of the handle of the oyster-striking tool, which acts as a cutting marker to facilitate fine adjustment of the weight. There are multiple groove structure forming parts (7), and by cutting at the grooves, it is possible to fine-tune the weight of the entire oyster-striking tool.
[0012] In common with all the embodiments, the oyster-shooting tool of the present invention has a non-slip structure (6) on the handle body, and the blade (8) is preferably made of stainless steel. [Explanation of symbols]
