摘要:
A gathering and dispensing scoop with agitating gate valve provides a scoop body defining an upper opening, a bottom opening, and a channel extending therebetween. A handle extends radially from an outer peripheral surface of the scoop body. A gate valve transects the channel and has a user operable finger tab adjacent to the handle for a user to move the gate valve from a first position transecting the channel and obstructing the bottom opening to a second position wherein the gate valve no longer obstructs the channel and opens the bottom opening.

A system for decorative space-saving measuring cups is a set of modified nesting doll that can be used to measure sequential volumetric quantities. Each of the nesting dolls can split apart into a first measuring cup and a second measuring cup, which are sized to hold two different volumes of a substance. The second measuring cup of an arbitrary nesting doll is always elevated by the second measuring cup of the next-largest nesting doll so that the second measuring cup of the arbitrary nesting doll is easier to grasp.

In a box which is made of cardboard or other rigid material and has a rectangular prism-like shape, one or two opposite faces have an inspection port which is closed with transparent material and is flanked by a graduated scale used to determine, according to the level reached after one or more partial removals, the weight of the short pasta or rice left in the box and any corresponding calories. The removal outlet, closed by a tear-open tab, is provided in one of the two faces that are normal to the face or faces provided with the inspection port and the graduated scale; the handle that makes it easier to grip the box protrudes on the opposite face. In the dosage container for short pasta or rice and in the dosage container for spaghetti or other long pasta, both made of cardboard or other opaque rigid material, there are one or more inspection ports which are made of transparent material and are shaped and/or arranged so as to directly form the sequence of elevation references, proximate to which the corresponding weight of the product and optionally the number of calories are indicated.
摘要:
A pasta gauge for mechanically selecting specific quantities of elongated dried pasta, such as spaghetti, the gauge having a body with a top surface and a plurality of different sized vertical, cylindrical bores each intersecting the top surface in a circular aperture, each aperture representing a predetermined number of serving portions which portions of a plurality of dried pasta members are selected by grasping a larger bundle of pasta noodles, supporting them against the surface over a selected aperture and allowing the desired portion to slide into the aperture and be separated from the remaining pasta noodles in the bundle.
摘要:
A gathering and dispensing scoop with agitating gate valve provides a hemispherically shaped scoop body defining an upper opening, a bottom opening, and a channel extending therebetween. A handle extends radially from an outer peripheral surface of the scoop body. A sector shaped gate valve transects the channel and has a user operable finger tab adjacent to the handle for a user to pivot the gate valve from a first position obstructing the bottom opening to a second position wherein the gate valve no longer obstructs the channel and opens the bottom opening.
