Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a sieve cup, and more specifically, to a sieve cup used for sifting powder or powder through a sieve. Background Technology

[0002] In some cases, a sieve with multiple holes is used to make flour into fine particles for cooking or other purposes.

[0003] For example, you can place a sieve on a base bowl, sprinkle flour onto the sieve, and then shake the sieve or tap the side of the sieve to filter out fine particles.

[0004] However, when using flour by placing it directly on the sieve and shaking it, the flour often spreads out here and there and falls off the base bowl.

[0005] In particular, when using a sieve, there are cases where flour clogs the holes formed in the sieve, preventing it from properly performing its role as a fertilizer. In such cases, the sieve must be shaken or struck vigorously to clear the clogged holes, but the flour does not fall properly into the serving bowl and is scattered here and there. Prior art literature

[0006] Registered Patent No. 10-1415101 The problem to be solved

[0007] Accordingly, the present invention has been devised to solve the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a means to prevent powder from being unintentionally blown away to other places when sifting powder using a sieve, and to quickly remove clogged holes formed in the sieve. means of solving the problem

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the sieve cup according to the present invention may include a container having an open top surface and a closed bottom surface to hold powdered material; and a brush mounted on the upper part of the container and protruding further upward than the uppermost surface of the container.

[0009] Here, the brush may protrude upward from the uppermost surface of the container by a range of 0.1 mm to 5 mm.

[0010] Here, a seating groove is formed along the outer surface of the upper part of the container, the brush is embedded in a seating member, and the seating member can be seated in the seating groove.

[0011] Here, the above-mentioned seating member may be made of an elastic member.

[0012] Here, the vertical width of the seating member is formed to be smaller than the vertical width of the seating groove, so that vertical movement within the seating groove can be achieved by an external force.

[0013] Here, the vertical movement range of the seating member is determined by the upper and lower locking projections within the seating groove, and when the seating member moves to the uppermost position within the seating groove, the brush protrudes further upward than the uppermost surface of the container, and when the seating member moves to the lowermost position within the seating groove, the brush may not protrude further than the uppermost surface of the container.

[0014] Here, a gripping groove may be formed on the outer surface of the container so that the fingertips can be caught when a user grips it.

[0015] Here, a gripping projection may be formed on the outer surface of the container to allow the fingertips to catch when a user grips it. Effects of the invention

[0016] As explained above, according to the present invention, when sifting powdered materials such as flour through a sieve, the delay in sifting time caused by clogging of the holes formed in the sieve can be minimized. Brief explanation of the drawing

Specific details for implementing the invention

[0018] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings.

[0019] The following embodiments according to the present invention are merely examples to aid in understanding the invention, and the invention is not limited to these embodiments. In particular, the present invention may be composed of a combination of at least one of the individual components and individual functions included in each embodiment.

[0020] An overall perspective view of a check cup (1) according to one embodiment of the present invention is as shown in FIG. 1.

[0021] As illustrated in the drawing, the sieve cup (1) according to the present invention comprises a container (10) capable of holding powdered material and a brush (20) protruding above the container (10).

[0022] The method of use is illustrated in Fig. 2.

[0023] That is, the sieve cup (1) according to the present invention is used by moving it while in an inverted state on top of the sieve (40).

[0024] In this way, when moving the sieve cup (1) upside down on the sieve (40) to filter powdered material inside the sieve cup (1) through the sieve (40), pressure can be applied to the material blocking the holes (41) of the sieve cup (1) that are in contact with the sieve (40) so that it falls down.

[0025] In particular, it is preferable that the brush (20) protrudes upward from the top (12) of the container (10) by a range of 0.1 mm to 5 mm. In this case, the brush (20) is provided to remove material blocking the sieve hole (41) that does not fall off easily even with the top surface (12) of the container (10) as previously mentioned.

[0026] That is, as the brush (20) passes through the sieve hole (41), it can drop down the material blocking the sieve hole (41).

[0027] If the brush (20) protrudes more than 5mm above the top (12) of the container (10), it may frequently occur that the brush (20) does not enter the sieve hole (41) when moving the sieve cup (1).

[0028] The reason it is named ‘sieve cup (1)’ is that it is a ‘cup used to sift powder in powder form over a sieve (40)’.

[0029] FIG. 2 shows an exploded view of the body cup (1) of FIG. 1.

[0030] That is, the container (10) has an open top surface and a closed bottom surface so that it can hold powdered material.

[0031] Here, powdered ingredients may be food ingredients such as flour, but are not limited to this.

[0032] That is, everything that needs to be filtered using a sieve (40) can be in powder form.

[0033] A seating groove (11) may be formed along the outer surface of the upper part of such a container (10).

[0034] For example, if the container (10) is cylindrical, a seating groove (11) may be formed along the upper outer surface of the container (10), and a more detailed explanation of the function of such a seating groove (11) will be provided later.

[0035] Meanwhile, the brush (20) is embedded in the mounting member (30), where the mounting member (30) is mounted in the mounting groove (11).

[0036] For example, the seating member (30) is made of an elastic member and may remain seated in the seating groove (11) unless there is an external force.

[0037] In particular, the seating member (30) can be separated from the seating groove (11) by a strong external force.

[0038] This is to clean the brush (20).

[0039] That is, if the seating member (30) is made of an elastic material, it can be stretched and separated from the seating groove (11), or even if the seating member (30) is made of a synthetic resin, it can be separated from the seating groove (11) by a twisting force due to its characteristics.

[0040] The user can separate the mounting member (30) from the mounting groove (11) in this way and wash the brush under running water, and furthermore, if the brush is damaged due to long-term use, it can be replaced.

[0041] That is, if a mounting member (30) equipped with a brush (20) is sold separately, the user can purchase it and install it anew in the mounting groove (11).

[0042] It is preferable that the sole (20) be composed of an elastic member that is bent in the forward, backward, left, and right directions while mounted on an elastic member as shown in FIG. 4, and then restored to its original state.

[0043] In this case, when the sieve cup (1) moves upside down over the sieve (40), the brush (20) can easily perform the action of coming out of the sieve hole (41) and going back into another hole (41).

[0044] Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 5, the vertical width (t2) of the seating member (30) is formed to be smaller than the vertical width (t1) of the seating groove (11) formed in the container (10), so that vertical movement can be made within the seating groove (11) by an external force.

[0045] That is, steps (13, 14) may be formed at the upper and lower portions of the mounting groove (11) due to the characteristics of the groove, and the mounting member (30) has its vertical movement range determined by the upper and lower locking steps (13, 14) within the mounting groove (11), and can move within the vertical movement range.

[0046] For example, when the seating member (30) moves to the uppermost position within the seating groove (11), the brush (20) may be configured to protrude further upward than the uppermost position (12) of the container (10), and when the seating member (30) moves to the lowermost position within the seating groove (11), the brush (20) may be configured not to protrude further than the uppermost position (12) of the container (10).

[0047] That is, FIG. 5 shows the state in which the seating member (30) moves to the lowest position within the seating groove (11) and is caught on the lower step (14), so that the brush (20) remains in a position that does not protrude beyond the uppermost part (12) of the container (10) as illustrated.

[0048] Figure 6 shows a perspective view of the check cup (1) in the same state as Figure 5.

[0049] In addition, FIG. 7 shows the state in which the seating member (30) moves to the uppermost position within the seating groove (11) and is caught on the upper step (13), and as shown, the brush (20) protrudes beyond the uppermost position (12) of the container (10).

[0050] Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a check cup (1) in a state similar to that of Figure 5.

[0051] When the user grasps the side of the sieve cup (1) after the seating member (30) has moved in this manner, the seating member (30) can maintain its position due to the external force of the grasp, and thus can perform the function of dropping the material blocking the sieve hole (41) downward as described above.

[0052] In this embodiment, the brush (20) is installed on the outer surface of the sieve cup (1) while mounted on the mounting member (30) and configured to be movable up and down, but it is obvious that the brush (20) may also be fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the sieve cup (1).

[0053] Meanwhile, in the above-described embodiment, a brush (20) is mounted on the outer surface of the sieve cup (1) as one embodiment, but for example, if the sieve cup (1) has a double structure with an inner cup on the inside and an outer cup on the outside, a brush (20) may be mounted between the inner cup and the outer cup, and such an example is shown in FIG. 8.

[0054] Meanwhile, on the outer surface of the container (10), a gripping groove (15) or a gripping ridge may be formed so that the fingertips can be caught when the user grips it.

[0055] FIG. 9 is a drawing showing the sieve cup (1) in an inverted state, and as shown in the drawing, it can be seen that a predetermined gripping groove (15) is formed along the side of the sieve cup (1) container (10).

[0056] In this case, as shown in Fig. 10, when the user holds the bottom surface of the container (10) to use it, the fingertips get caught in the gripping groove (15), so that the sieve cup (1) can be prevented from slipping out of the hand during the process of sifting powder through the sieve (40).

[0057] The gripping projection is opposite to this gripping groove (15) and protrudes outward from the container (10), but the illustration is omitted.

[0058] These gripping grooves (15) or gripping ridges may be formed on a part of the outside of the container (10).

[0059] Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, but can be implemented with various modifications and variations within the scope of the essence of the invention. It will be obvious that such modifications and variations are included in the present invention if they fall within the scope of the appended claims. Explanation of the symbols
