ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an ice-cream scoop including a semispherical bowl, a handle extending from and rigid with the bowl and an ejector pivotally mounted on the handle adjacent the bowl to separate the ball of ice-cream from the bowl. The bowl has a bottom opening and a slot communicating with the bottom opening and extending to the rim of the bowl. The handle is formed with a cavity adjacent the bowl, said cavity opening at the top and bottom of the handle and communicating with the slot. The ejector comprises an arcuate tongue conforming to the interior and exterior surfaces of the bowl and to the shape of the bottom opening and of the slot, so that when the tongue is bottomed in the bowl, it fills the bottom opening and the slot, and is substantially flush with both interior and exterior surfaces of the bowl. The ejector further includes a lever arm rigid with the tongue extending in the cavity of the handle and accessible from both the top and bottom of the handle. Upon upward manual pressure exerted on the lever arm, the ejector will be pivoted to a position in which the tongue is bottomed in the bowl, and upon downward manual pressure exerted on the ejector, the tongue will be lifted away from the bowl bottom.
