Abstract
Description
Powdered milk cap with spoon-joint structure and powdered milk container having the same
[0001] The present invention relates to a milk powder cap having a spoon-jointing structure and a milk powder container having the same.
[0002] A formula container is a container designed to replace breast milk in babies, used to store and efficiently administer solid powdered formula. Early formula containers appeared in the 19th century. However, at the time, they were simple in design and limited in variety. Made primarily of metal or wood, they were used primarily as tools for storing and handling powdered formula. In the early 20th century, the design and materials of formula containers improved, with the introduction of glass formula containers, allowing for more efficient storage and handling of powdered formula. With the invention and widespread use of plastic in the mid-20th century, plastic formula containers emerged. These containers were more popular due to their lightness and durability. Modern formula containers come in a variety of sizes, designs, and features. Some formula containers include built-in spoons or measuring cups for accurate measurement of powdered formula, and additional features are available to help properly regulate a baby's nutrition.
[0003] In the past, spoons were stored inside the formula container. However, placing a spoon inside the formula container brings its surface into direct contact with the powdered formula, potentially contaminating the spoon and posing a risk to the baby. Furthermore, placing a spoon inside the formula container can make it difficult to accurately measure the amount of powdered formula. Furthermore, if the spoon and formula are in close contact for a long period of time, the powdered formula may become stuck to the spoon, causing clumping or uneven mixing. To address these issues, numerous attempts have been made to store the spoon outside the formula container, rather than inside it.
[0004] Korean Patent No. 10-1791410, Safety Sealed Milk Powder Container Lid with Spoon, and Registered Utility Model No. 20-0479362, Milk Powder Container Lid with Spoon, are injection-molded together with the milk powder container lid and the spoon, and the spoon is removed from the spoon connection and then fixed to the spoon fixing elastic protrusion. This has the problem that the tip of the spoon is damaged during the process of removing the spoon from the spoon connection, and the plastic part of the tip of the plastic spoon is damaged, and the spoon fixing elastic protrusion is easily broken during the repeated process of attaching and detaching the spoon to and from the spoon fixing elastic protrusion. In addition, when attaching and detaching the spoon and the milk powder container lid, the spoon must be attached and detached while the milk powder cap is fixed, which is inconvenient to use. In addition, due to the nature of the metal material, it is difficult to form a protrusion-shaped structure in the center of the milk powder container lid during the manufacturing process, and a separate fixing method is required to attach the protrusion-shaped structure. That is, there is a limit to the possibility of defects and increased manufacturing costs due to the increased complexity of the manufacturing process.
[0005] The spoon storage device for powdered milk cans, designated by Korean Utility Model No. 20-0415346, utilizes a method of fastening the tip of the spoon to a fastening point. However, due to the spoon's small size, securing the tip to the fastening point is challenging, and wear and tear on the fastening point can prevent the spoon from being securely fastened to the fastening point.
[0006] The spoon storage device for powdered milk cans, designated by Korean Utility Model No. 20-0345436, utilizes a method in which the tip of the spoon is inserted into a locking mechanism. This method, in which only the tip of the spoon is secured, poses a problem: the spoon can easily fall out of the locking mechanism.
[0007] The present invention has been proposed to solve the above-described problem, and provides a milk powder cap having a spoon-attaching structure that enables hygienic and convenient storage of a spoon on the milk powder cap, and a milk powder container having the same.

Therefore, it is easy to interpose the spoon (300) between the first and second spoon coupling portions (270, 280) having a large area.
[0068] Figure 11 is a schematic illustration of a method for attaching a spoon to a powdered milk cap, and Figure 12 is a front view of a powdered milk container showing the inside of the powdered milk cap.
[0069] Referring to Fig. 11, the spoon (300) is accommodated in the spoon receiving space (ss) in a direction in which the upper surface of the spoon (300) and the inner upper surface (231) of the milk powder cap (200) face each other. The spoon (300) is accommodated in the spoon receiving space (ss) first when the end region of the tip (320) engages with the second spoon coupling portion (280), and then when the spoon (300) rotates around the end of the tip (320) and the end of the handle portion (310) engages with the first spoon coupling portion (270), the spoon is accommodated in the spoon receiving space (ss). When the tip (320) is engaged with the second spoon coupling portion (280), the lower surface of the first spoon coupling portion (270) has a first inclined surface (271), so that the end of the handle portion (310) is interposed between the inner upper surface (231) and the first spoon coupling portion (270) along the first inclined surface (271).
[0070] That is, when the tip (320) is engaged with the second inclined surface (281), one area of the tip (320) is fixed between the inner upper surface (231) and the second inclined surface (281) by the second spoon coupling portion (281), and the tip of the handle portion (310) can be fixed between the first spoon coupling portion (271) and the inner upper surface (231) by rotating around one area of the tip (320).

[0072] When the spoon (300) is fixedly fastened to the milk powder cap (200), the upper surface of the spoon (300) comes into contact with the inner upper surface (231) of the milk powder cap (200), so that the spoon (300) can be fastened to the milk powder cap (200) by the inner upper surface (231) and the first and second spoon connecting parts (270, 280).
[0073] When the spoon (300) is withdrawn from the milk powder cap (200), the tip portion (320) is withdrawn first, and then the handle portion (310) is withdrawn, so that the spoon (300) can be released from the milk powder cap (200). Since the second spoon coupling portion (280) has a second inclined surface (281), the tip portion (320) is withdrawn first, and then the spoon (300) can be released from the milk powder cap (200) as the spoon (300) rotates around the end of the handle portion (310) along the second inclined surface (281).
[0074] In various embodiments, the spoon (300) may be rotated so that the handle portion (310) is fixed to the milk powder cap (200) by the first spoon coupling portion (270) and the spout portion (320) is fixed to the milk powder cap (200) by the second spoon coupling portion (280) while the upper surface of the spoon (300) is in contact with the inner upper surface (231) of the milk powder cap (200), and the spoon (300) may be withdrawn from the milk powder cap (200) by rotating the spoon (300) again so that the handle portion (310) is separated from the first spoon coupling portion (270) and the spout portion (320) is separated from the second spoon coupling portion (280).
[0075] Referring to FIGS. 11 and 12, a plurality of fastening protrusions (208, 209) may be formed on the inside of the powdered milk cap (200). The plurality of fastening protrusions (208, 209) may be formed to extend and protrude from the inner surface of the powdered milk cap (200), and may be formed at different positions on the inner surface of the powdered milk cap (200). The plurality of fastening protrusions (208, 209) may be formed on the first inner surface (201) of the powdered milk cap (200). When the powdered milk cap (200) is fastened to the container portion (100), the plurality of fastening protrusions (208, 209) may be inserted into the powdered milk cap fixing groove (121), thereby fixing the powdered milk cap (200) to the container portion (100).

The cut portion (311) may be formed by cutting a predetermined depth and a predetermined width inwardly of the handle portion (310) in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the handle portion (310) from the end of the other side of the handle portion (310). The guide groove (321) may be a groove of a predetermined depth and width in the inner direction of the handle portion (320) in a direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the handle portion (310) on the outer surface of the handle portion (320), and the guide groove (321) may be formed as a continuous groove from the end of the outer surface of the handle portion (310) to the boundary area between the bottom surface and the outer surface, and the longitudinal direction of the guide groove (321) may be a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the handle portion (310). The cut portion (311) and the guide groove (321) may be positioned facing each other.
[0096] With respect to the method of fixing the spoon (300) to the milk powder cap (200), the side surface of the spoon (300) and the inner upper surface (231) of the milk powder cap (200) may be placed on the spoon receiving space (ss) of the milk powder cap (200) so that the spoon (300) faces each other. First, the first spoon coupling part (270) may be inserted into the cut-out part (311) of the spoon (300). Then, while the first spoon coupling part (270) is inserted into the cut-out part (311) of the spoon (300), the second spoon coupling part (280) may be coupled on the guide groove (321) formed on the cut-out part (320) while rotating the tip part (320) of the spoon (300) in the direction of the arrow shown, centering on the connection point between the spoon (300) and the first spoon coupling part (270).
[0097] The first spoon coupling part (270) is fitted into the cut part (311), and the second spoon coupling part (280) is fitted into the guide groove (321), so that the spoon (300) can be fastened and fixed onto the milk powder cap (200). In addition, when separating the spoon (300) from the milk powder cap (200), the spoon (300) can be easily separated from the milk powder cap (200) by rotating it in the opposite direction to the rotation of the spoon (300) when it is coupled.
[0098] In addition, the outer surface of the tip (320) has a shape in which the vertical distance from the boundary point between the tip (320) and the handle (310) to the outer surface of the tip (320) gradually decreases from the end to the boundary area between the outer surface and the bottom surface. Accordingly, while the first spoon coupling part (270) is inserted into the cutout (311) of the spoon (300), the tip (320) of the spoon (300) is rotated in the direction of the arrow shown around the connection point between the spoon (300) and the first spoon coupling part (270), and the second spoon coupling part (280) is gradually firmly fitted onto the guide groove (321). Accordingly, the bonding strength between the guide groove (321) and the second spoon coupling part (280) increases, so that the bonding force between the spoon (300) and the milk powder cap (200) can be strengthened.
