<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a measuring spoon used as a tablespoon and a teaspoon for using only one end and one face of a spoon to measure a plurality of volumes and for facilitating the washing after the use. <P>SOLUTION: A tier 2 is provided on a scoop 1 of the measuring spoon to form a shape of an upside-down Kagami-mochi consisting of a small round Mochi (rice cake) on a large round Mochi. The volume from the bottom to the tier in the scoop indicates the volume equivalent to one teaspoon, and the volume which exceeds the tier to fill the entire scoop indicates the volume equivalent to one tablespoon. Engraved marks provided at appropriate places in the scoop indicate the volumes other than the volumes of the tea and tablespoons. Many kinds of volumes are collected into only one spoonful to dispense with the operation each time the volume is changed, is continuously used without switching to hold it since the only one face is used, and has a simple shape by integrating parts from the scoop to a handle 3 without having a connecting part or a partitioning plate for the consideration of washing and cleanup. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
