Description

A powder food packaging barrel Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of packaging and relates to a powder food packaging barrel. Background Art

[0002] Currently, existing powder food packaging barrels typically include a dosing spoon in addition to the food powder itself. Some systems directly mix the dosing spoon with the food powder. After using the dosing spoon, users simply place it back into the food powder, mixing the hand-kneaded spoon with the food powder, which is unsanitary. Others feature a buckle or slot on the back of the barrel lid to secure the dosing spoon. However, such structures are prone to mechanical fatigue from frequent insertion and removal, leading to loosening or even damage. For these reasons, we have optimized the design of powder food packaging barrels to ensure the dosing spoon is secure while preventing mechanical fatigue. Technical Solutions

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the above problems in the existing technology and provide

[0004] A powder food packaging barrel is designed to optimize the structure of the powder food packaging barrel so that the metering spoon is fixed and mechanical fatigue is avoided.

[0005] The objectives of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A powder food packaging barrel, characterized in that the packaging barrel includes a barrel body, a lid and a metering spoon, the barrel body is in the shape of a round bottle, and a connecting port is provided on the top of the barrel body; the lid is connected to the connecting thread; the lower end of the connecting port is recessed toward the inside of the barrel body to form a ring platform inside the connecting port, and a convex ring is provided on the connecting port above the ring platform; the metering spoon includes a cylindrical spoon body and a handle, and a downwardly bent support portion is provided at the end of the handle; the lower part of an outer wall of the spoon body away from the handle is recessed to form a downward step surface, and the lowest point of the support portion is flush with the step surface, under the joint support of the step surface and the support portion, the metering spoon can just cross and be placed on the ring platform, and when the metering spoon is placed on the ring platform and the lid is in a tightened state, the lower surface of the lid just fits tightly against the top of the metering spoon.

[0006] Preferably, a plurality of exhaust holes are provided at the bottom of the spoon body, and a through hole is provided on the handle near one end of the spoon body.

[0007] Preferably, the cross section of the lower end of the support portion matches the cross section of the inner wall of the convex ring. Beneficial effects

[0008] 1. This packaging barrel uses a ring platform inside the connection port to place the dosing spoon. This not only keeps the dosing spoon away from powdered food to prevent food contamination, but also eliminates the need for a slot or buckle to avoid mechanical fatigue and make the dosing spoon more secure.

[0009] 2. In this packaging barrel, when the dosing spoon is placed on the ring platform and the lid is tightened, the lower surface of the lid is in close contact with the top of the dosing spoon. This can prevent the dosing spoon from tilting significantly relative to the barrel during transportation due to the shaking of the packaging barrel, causing the dosing spoon to fall into the packaging barrel and then come into contact with food powder, causing it to be contaminated.

[0010] 3. In this packaging barrel, the cross-section of the lower end of the support part matches the cross-section of the inner wall of the convex ring, allowing us to penetrate it deep into the convex ring, thereby achieving the removal and cleaning of food powder.

[0017] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further describe the technical solutions of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0018] As shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, a powder food packaging barrel includes a barrel body 1, a lid 2, and a dosing spoon. The barrel body 1 is in the shape of a round bottle and has a connection port 11 at the top. The lid 2 is threadedly connected to the connection port 11. The lower end of the connection port 11 is recessed into the barrel body to form an annular platform 12 within the connection port 11. A raised ring 13 is provided on the connection port 11 above the annular platform 12. The dosing spoon includes a cylindrical barrel-shaped scoop body 31 and a handle 32. The handle 32 has a downwardly bent support portion 33 at its end. The lower portion of an outer wall of the scoop body 31, away from the handle 32, is recessed to form a downwardly facing step surface 34. The lowest point of the support portion 33 is flush with the step surface 34. With the combined support of the step surface 34 and the support portion 33, the dosing spoon can be placed across the annular platform 12. When the dosing spoon is placed on the annular platform 12 and the lid 2 is tightened, the lower surface of the lid 2 is in close contact with the top of the dosing spoon.

[0019] This packaging barrel utilizes a ring platform 12 within the connection port 11 to accommodate the dosing spoon. This not only keeps the dosing spoon away from the powdered food, preventing food contamination, but also eliminates the need for a snap-in clip, reducing mechanical fatigue and making the dosing spoon more secure. More importantly, a stepped surface 34 is provided on the spoon body 31, and a downwardly bent support portion 33 is provided at the end of the handle 32. These two features together support the dosing spoon in a horizontal position on the ring platform 12. When the dosing spoon is placed on the ring platform 12 and the lid 2 is tightened, the lower surface of the lid 2 rests against the top of the dosing spoon. This prevents the dosing spoon from tilting significantly relative to the barrel during transport due to vibration, potentially causing it to fall into the barrel and come into contact with food powder, potentially contaminating it.

[0020] The bottom of the scoop body 31 is provided with a plurality of vent holes 35, and the handle 32 is provided with a through hole 36 near one end of the scoop body 31. The vent holes 35 allow air to be promptly expelled from the dosing scoop as it scoops food powder, preventing hollowing and inaccurate metering. The through hole in the handle allows excess food powder to escape, preventing it from adhering to the handle 32 and being carried away by the handle, causing unnecessary waste and compromising the cleanliness of the user environment.

[0021] The cross-section of the lower end of the support portion 33 matches the cross-section of the inner wall of the raised ring 13. The raised ring 13 is used to prevent the lid 2 from descending further, thereby preventing damage to the lid 2 due to excessive movement. Powdered food easily adheres to the inner wall of the raised ring 13 and is difficult to clean. The "7" curved handle 32 serves as a convenient cleaning tool. The cross-section of the lower end of the support portion 33 matches the cross-section of the inner wall of the raised ring 13, allowing it to be inserted deeply into the raised ring 13 to scrape and clean food powder.

[0022] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the spirit of the present invention. Persons skilled in the art may make various modifications, additions, or substitutions to the described embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention or exceeding the scope of the appended claims.
