Adjustable scooping device
An adjustable scoop includes a scoop body and a plunger. The scoop body has a cylindrical interior sidewall, a hollow interior, an open top, and an open bottom. The plunger is arranged in the interior of the scoop body such that a top surface of the plunger faces the open top. A volume of the interior of the scoop body above the plunger defines a volume of the adjustable scoop. The plunger is rotatable in the interior of the scoop body to adjust the volume of the adjustable scoop. The plunger includes a first engagement element, and a surface of the interior sidewall of the scoop body includes a second engagement element extending from the surface. The first and second engagement elements mutually cooperate to translate rotation of the plunger to adjustment of the volume of the adjustable scoop.
Scoop and level
A scoop and level for scooping a portion of granulated material and leveling the contents of the scoop. The scoop may have a volume suitable for brewing a single serving of brewed beverage, and in particular, for brewing a single serving of espresso. The lever is attached to the scoop and slides over the scoop to displace excess material, thus providing a desired amount material for precessing, for example, for preparing a beverage. A scoop handle may further include a tamper opposite to the scoop. The tamper may be used to tamp brewing material after scooping, leveling, and pouring the brewing material into a holder.
Single-ended multi-cavity measuring scoop
Embodiments of the present invention include measuring apparatuses, method of use of the apparatuses, and methods of manufacture. A measuring apparatus may include, for example, a scoop portion joined to a handle portion, wherein the scoop portion and the handle portion are either separate elements connected to each other or contiguous regions on a piece of a material comprising the measuring apparatus, the scoop portion comprising a top surface and a bottom surface. The scoop portion may comprise two or more cavities, where each cavity is a concave indentation in either the top surface or the bottom surface, and where each cavity is formed to accommodate a pre-defined volume of a substance to be measured.
Food dosing implement
A pet food implement (100) having a container (200) to measure an amount of pet food based on a weight measurement of a pet and a weight management plan, the container (200) having a side (215, 220) with graduated markings (230) corresponding to weight measurements for pets. The container (200) further includes a selectively adjustable wall (300) that defines an intermediate predetermined volume of the container (200) corresponding to an amount of pet food suitable for a pet with a certain weight on a predetermined weight management plan; and a handle (400) coupled to the wall (300) to selectively adjust the wall (300) along the side of the container (200) to define the intermediate predetermined volume, the handle (400) aligning the wall (300) proximate one of the graduated markings (230).
PORTIONING DEVICE WITH INTERCHANGEABLE SCOOPS
A portioning device includes an integrated handle, actuating lever, and rack with teeth, with the handle having an aperture at the top. The rack is formed to be easily placed, and retained, in an initial position for assembly. One or more scoops are provided which may each be detachably connected the handle top end. A wiping blade may be detachably connected to the scoop for free rotation within the scoop. The wiping blade includes a shaft having a number of gear teeth, together with a camming surface leading to the first tooth on the shaft. Insertion of the scoop and wiping blade shaft into the handle aperture results in the first rack tooth acting as a camming surface and rotating the wiping blade to the proper clocking position with the first tooth of the shaft engaged with the first tooth of the rack. In this manner the number of component parts is reduced significantly, while at the same time allowing for re-use of the handle with the various interchangeable scoops.
Sunscreen Dosing Device and Sunscreen Bottle
A sunscreen dosing device and a sunscreen bottle with the sunscreen dosing device are disclosed. The sunscreen dosing device comprises a cup and a structured elongation which is an integral part of the cup. A first ear and a second ear are integral parts of the cup. For attaching the sunscreen dosing device to a body of a sunscreen bottle a free end of the structured elongation can be inserted in the first or the second ear.
Calibrated anti-spill dosing applicator
An applicator made from stainless steel comprising an elongated handle, a chamber, and a blade. The handle having a longitudinal axis and comprising a first end and a second end, a first section, a second section, a third section, and a fourth section, each in substantial alignment along the longitudinal axis of the handle. The chamber is substantially cylindrical and is coupled to the first end of the handle for collecting a calibrated volume of material. The chamber has an open end distal to the first end of the handle and a closed end proximate the first end of the handle, and is in substantial alignment with the longitudinal axis of the handle. The blade is coupled to the second end of the handle, the blade having a curved profile and a tip with a rounded facial contour, and being in substantial alignment with the longitudinal axis of the handle.
Scoop with Level
A scoop and level for scooping a portion of granulated material and leveling the contents of the scoop. The scoop may have a volume suitable for brewing a single serving of brewed beverage, and in particular, for brewing a single serving of espresso. The lever is attached to the scoop and slides over the scoop to displace excess material, thus providing a desired amount material for processing, for example, for preparing a beverage. A scoop handle may further include a tamper opposite to the scoop. The tamper may be used to tamp brewing material after scooping, leveling, and pouring the brewing material into a holder.
Recipe Storage Organizer Device
The present invention relates to a storage organizer device. The device is designed to provide users with a transparent storage and organization device for baking and cooking. Specifically, the storage organizer device is designed to enable users to prep and store their ingredients when cooking and/or baking. The device comprises a plurality of removable, transparent, and rectangular-shaped measuring cups, a tablespoon insert holder, and a base component to store and transport all the components in. Specifically, the plurality of measuring cups are stored in the clear carrier base with a hinged lid and side handles for easy transportation. Further, each of the measuring cups is marked with lines denoting measurements in cups, tablespoons, ounces and millimeters.
Multi-Purpose Scoop Device
The present invention relates to a novel multipurpose scoop device. The device is a scoop for water soluble powders, such as protein powders, baby formula powders, etc. The device comprises a scooping portion component with a holding cavity disposed at one end of the scoop device and a funnel component disposed at an opposing end of the scoop device. The scoop device attaches to the top of the lid of a powder container and a user rotates the scoop device to open the powder container and the holding cavity of the device. The user then inverts the powder container to fill the scoop device and rotates the scoop device again to close off the powder container. The user then removes the scoop device filled with powder from the powder container for use.
