The invention relates to a spoon for receiving soft or liquid food. Said spoon has a handle with an attached mouthpiece constructed of soft and flexible material. The aim of the invention is to significantly simplify the manner in which food is received by small children and people with facial paralysis. The spoon has a practical shape in that the mouthpiece is trough-shaped and concave and has a level defining upper edge, whereby the thickness of the mouthpiece in the front and on the lateral side is proportional so that its concave shape can be inverted by the pressure of the tongue (Z) during swallowing and the mouthpiece can adapt to the arched shape of the hard palate (G) in a sagital and transversal direction.
L'invention concerne une cuillère à soupe destinée à recevoir des aliments liquides ou sous forme de bouillie et comportant un manche auquel se raccorde une partie buccale en matériau mou et souple. L'invention vise à faciliter considérablement et donc à rendre pratique l'ingestion de nourriture pour les petits enfants et les personnes atteintes de paralysie faciale. A cet effet, la partie buccale présente une forme d'auge concave et comporte un bord de délimitation supérieur se situant dans un plan. L'épaisseur de paroi de la partie buccale dans la région antérieure et latérale est calculée de sorte que sa forme concave s'inverse en une forme convexe lors de la déglutition sous l'effet de la pression de la langue (Z) et que la partie buccale s'adapte à la forme arquée de la voûte palatine osseuse (G) en sens sagittal et transversal.
