Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a cap for temporarily hanging cooking chopsticks during cooking by attaching it to the upper part of the cooking chopsticks used at home and sticking it to a range hood or the like by a magnet attached to the upper part.

Background Art

[0002] During cooking near the stove, the used cooking chopsticks were placed on a small plate or a chopstick rest was used so that the tip of the chopsticks would not touch the workbench or the like.

Prior Art Documents

[0003] There are no prior art documents. The present invention was devised because I thought it would be convenient in daily life. I searched for patent documents related to cooking chopsticks, but there were no documents related to the present invention.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] During cooking, stress is felt during cooking because the cooking chopsticks are placed on a plate, a chopstick rest is prepared, or the tip of the chopsticks gets dirty or falls over when placed on the cooking table. I was troubled about where to place the cooking chopsticks.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0005] When cooking, attach the chopstick cap with a magnet to the upper part of the chopsticks, and when placing the chopsticks during cooking, attach them to the range hood and store them in the air.

Effects of the Invention

[0006] During cooking, there is no need to prepare a small plate or secure other space for placing the cooking chopsticks. They can be quickly stored in the air during work and quickly taken by hand and used for cooking immediately when needed. The cooking chopsticks do not roll or stain the workbench, and the stress during cooking can be reduced. As a storage place, if attached to the refrigerator, it can be quickly taken out and used when you want to use it without searching.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0008] With two magnets built into the upper part of the cap-shaped main body and the upper part of the six vegetable chopsticks inserted from the insertion port 3, considering the instability of the size of the vegetable chopsticks and the deterioration of the edge part due to the use of the vegetable chopsticks, which makes it difficult to fit, by making it a tapered hole 4, a structure for stable fixation is achieved.
