Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of kitchen utensils.
- the present invention relates to an ice cream scoop.
- the majority of the ice cream spoons hitherto proposed comprise a handle which carries a generally hemispherical rigid cup and a movable lever or scraper, placed in the cup, generally pivotally mounted therein. ci, and associated with actuation means for taking off the scoop of ice contained in the cup.
- the present invention now aims to improve the known ice cream scoops.
- an ice cream scoop comprising a handle which carries a globally hemispherical cup, characterized in that the cup has a bottom part made of flexible deformable material.
- the spoon according to the present invention allows in particular, thanks to the presence of the bottom part made of flexible deformable material, easy demolding of the contents of the cup.
- FIG. 1 shows an external side view of an ice cream scoop according to the present invention and - Figure 2 shows a longitudinal sectional view of the same ice cream scoop.
- an ice cream scoop which comprises an elongated rigid handle 10 and a cup 40 generally hemispherical.
- the spoon has a longitudinal plane of symmetry passing through the cutting plane which coincides with the plane of FIG. 2.
- the handle 10 is connected, at one end, to a rigid frame in the form of a closed ring 20.
- the edges thereof may be slightly curved or wavy.
- the bottom of the latter is formed by a cap 30 of geometry spherical in deformable flexible material, and preferably elastic. This is connected to the frame 20, at the lower peripheral edge 24 thereof.
- cap 30 forms in combination with the ring 20 a sealed hemispherical cup.
- the cap 30 covers a solid angle greater than 90 °, advantageously between 100 and 130 °.
- the rigid frame 20 makes it easy to take ice from a reserve tank. On this occasion, a ball of ice is housed in the cup 40.
- the handle 10 comprises a rigid insert 12 secured to the frame or ring 20.
- the insert 12 is partially covered with an envelope made of flexible material 32. The latter preferably comes in one piece with the flexible bottom 30.
- the particular geometry of the insert 12 and of the flexible envelope 32 essentially relates to ergonomics and aesthetics. It will not be described in detail later. Of course, it is not limited to the particular embodiment illustrated in the appended figures.
- the ice cream scoop according to the present invention shown in the appended figures can be produced by various techniques.
- the ice cream scoop according to the present invention can be produced using a rigid frame 20 and a flexible cap 30 made up of parts that are initially separated and then assembled.
- the frame 20 can in this context be formed of metal, for example steel, aluminum or zinc alloy, while the cap 30 is made of flexible material, for example silicone or plastic .
- the connection between the rigid frame 20 and the cap 30 can be formed by any suitable means, for example by gluing, welding, thermal or ultrasound, riveting or the like.
- the spoon is preferably made in one piece entirely of synthetic material, for example plastic. It is then preferably carried out by co-injection, coextrusion, overmolding or the like.
- the frame 20 can be formed from a material chosen from the group comprising: ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), polycarbonate, polypropylenes, while the cap 30 is made of a material chosen from the group comprising: elastomers, rubber, silicone, waterproof textiles.
- ABS acrylonitrile butadiene styrene
- polycarbonate polycarbonate
- polypropylenes while the cap 30 is made of a material chosen from the group comprising: elastomers, rubber, silicone, waterproof textiles.
- the insert 12 of the handle and the rigid frame 20 are made of polyethylene, while the casing 32 and the flexible bottom 30 are made of a thermoplastic elastomer.
- the present invention is not limited to the particular embodiment which has just been described but extends to any variant in accordance with its spirit.
- the present invention offers in particular the advantage of perfect hygiene.
- the cup of the spoon according to the present invention intended to come into contact with the ice, does not contain any part. mobile, no hidden surface, no hard to reach area.
- the bottom 30 of flexible material can be provided on its outer surface and at its center with projecting ribs 34 (for example five ribs 34 which extend transversely to the direction d 'elongation of the handle 10) to facilitate the positioning of the finger biasing the part of the bottom 30 during demolding.
- the central rib 34a has a length of the order of 15mm, the external ribs 34c of the order of 8mm and the intermediate ribs 34b of the order of 12mm.
