Abstract

The invention concerns an adapted component moulded to a bowl or like containers during manufacture for locking a spoon (soup spoon, coffee spoon, plastic stick) and for facilitating transfer of liquids. The container (1) has on its periphery an opening (3) revealing a spout (4), which when it is opened is enlarged by two bevelled projections (9) thereby forming, with the container inner wall, two edges (10) for maintaining the spoon in the spout (4) when the container is inclined. Since it is also curved, said spout facilitates transfer of liquids. The adapted component can be moulded on various types of containers (bowls, cups, tumblers, plastic mugs) and its size and shape can vary depending on the design.

REC1PIEMTREC1PIEMT
La présente invention concerne une adaptation moulée permettant de caler une cuillère (à soupe, à café ou bâtonnet plastique) dans un bol ou autres récipients assimiles.The present invention relates to a molded adaptation for wedging a spoon (soup, coffee or plastic stick) in a bowl or other similar containers.
Celle-ci en temps normal glisse le long de la paroi intérieure et vient gêner l'usager lorsque celui-ci incline le récipient pour boire.This normally slides along the interior wall and annoys the user when he tilts the container for drinking.
De plus, le transvasement des liquides d un récipient à un autre n'est pas pratique. En effet, une partie des liquides, lors du transvasement, s'écoule le long de la paroi extérieure et se déverse à côté de l'autre récipientIn addition, transferring liquids from one container to another is not practical. Indeed, part of the liquids, during decanting, flows along the outer wall and spills next to the other container
L'adaptation selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces deux inconvénients. Elle constitue en effet selon une première caractéristique l'ajout d'un bec facilitant les transvasements.The adaptation according to the invention overcomes these two drawbacks. According to a first characteristic, it constitutes the addition of a spout facilitating transfers.
Ce bec par sa forme originale permet de recueillir la cuillère et de caler celle-ci, l'usager n'est, par conséquent, plus gêné lorsqu'il ingurgite le liquide.This spout by its original shape allows to collect the spoon and wedge it, the user is therefore no longer embarrassed when swallowing the liquid.
Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation :According to particular embodiments:
- La taille et la forme du bec peuvent varier.- The size and shape of the beak may vary.
- Ce bec et moulé lors de sa fabrication sur différents types de récipients (de divers matériaux et de différentes tailles) : Bol ; Mug ; Tasse ; Verre ; Gobelet en plastique. - Une simple ouverture sur la paroi du récipient peut être effectuée permettant uniquement de caler une cuillère.- This spout is molded during its manufacture on different types of containers (of various materials and of different sizes): Bowl; Mug; Cup ; Glass; Plastic cup. - A simple opening on the wall of the container can be made allowing only to wedge a spoon.
Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention : Un bol muni de cette adaptation a été pris comme support pour ces illustrations : non limitatif, cf. (ligne 23).The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: A bowl provided with this adaptation was taken as support for these illustrations: non-limiting, cf. (line 23).
- La figure 1 représente un bol en coupe.- Figure 1 shows a bowl in section.
- La figure 2 représente le bol vu de face.- Figure 2 shows the bowl seen from the front.
- La figure 3 représente le bol vu du dessus.- Figure 3 shows the bowl seen from above.
- La figure 4 représente le bec vu de l'intérieur du bol. - La figure 5 représente une variante de l'adaptation qui aura pour seul usage le calage de la cuillère. En référence à ces dessins, le bol est de tonne circulaire (1), d'un diamètre et d'une profondeur variable (2). Sur la circonférence du bol. une ouverture de 1.8 cm de large (3) en haut du bol, de 1 cm en bas de l'ouverture (7) et de 3 cm de haut laisse apparaître un bec (4) qui à son sommet est profond - mesure effectuée entre l'ouverture (3) et la pointe du bec (5) - de 1.7 cm (6), pour venir rejoindre le bol à 3 cm (7) du bord supérieur de celui-ci.- Figure 4 shows the spout seen from inside the bowl. - Figure 5 shows a variant of the adaptation which will have only the setting of the spoon. With reference to these drawings, the bowl is of circular ton (1), of variable diameter and depth (2). On the circumference of the bowl. a 1.8 cm wide opening (3) at the top of the bowl, 1 cm at the bottom of the opening (7) and 3 cm high reveals a beak (4) which at its top is deep - measurement made between the opening (3) and the tip of the spout (5) - 1.7 cm (6), to join the bowl 3 cm (7) from the upper edge of it.
Ce bec qui à son ouverture mesure 1.8 cm de large s'élargit jusqu'à 2.5 cm (8) après un débord biaisé (9) de part et d'autre de l'ouverture du bec, de 0.5 cm et d'un angle de 45 degrés.This beak which at its opening measures 1.8 cm wide widens up to 2.5 cm (8) after a biased projection (9) on either side of the opening of the beak, 0.5 cm and at an angle 45 degrees.
Deux arêtes (10) verticales, inclinées, voire même arquées forment ainsi l'ouverture du bec de l'intérieur du bol. Ces arêtes (10) permettent le maintient de la cuillère dans le bec (4) lorsque l'on incline le bol. Il dépasse (le bec) latéralement du bord supérieur du bol de 1.8 cm au total.Two vertical edges (10), inclined, or even arcuate thus form the opening of the spout from the inside of the bowl. These edges (10) allow the spoon to be held in the spout (4) when the bowl is tilted. It projects (the beak) laterally from the upper edge of the bowl by 1.8 cm in total.
Toutes ces mesures sont prises à l'intérieur du bol et peuvent varier selon le récipient.All these measures are taken inside the bowl and may vary depending on the container.
En référence à la figure 5 une simple ouverture (11) par découpe en haut du récipient formant deux arêtes (10) verticales, inclinées ou arquées permet de caler la cuillère. Referring to Figure 5 a simple opening (11) by cutting at the top of the container forming two vertical edges (10), inclined or arcuate allows to wedge the spoon.
