  The above-mentioned tabletop warming pot is usually used in hotels and restaurants, and when eating, food is transferred from a pot (tray) to an individual dish using an instrument such as tongs. This tong is usually placed on a saucer placed in front of the heating pot, and each person has a dish in one hand, so open the lid with the other hand and hold the tongs for cooking. Is placed on the plate, the tongue is returned to a predetermined position (on the tray), and the lid is closed.

  In this way, when serving dishes from a tabletop warming pot, it is cumbersome with the opening and closing of the lid, so the tablecloth is often soiled by placing it directly on the table without returning the tongue to the specified position. In addition, there was a problem in handling the tongs, such as a part of the dish (sauce etc.) adhered to the tongs and the saucer was soiled, and the tong's handle was also soiled accordingly.

  Moreover, the whole heat-insulating pan is made of metal, and the lid is also made of metal. For this reason, since the inside dish cannot be confirmed from the outside, there is an inconvenience of having to open the lid in order to confirm the contents of the dish.

  Thus, the present invention proposes a tabletop warming pot having a novel structure that can be easily processed with tongs and that allows the food to be visually recognized from the outside.

  The tabletop warming pot according to the present invention is a frame-shaped base provided with appropriate leg portions attached to a frame-shaped base portion, and a pan portion provided with an appropriate heating mechanism is mounted, and the outer peripheral surface facing position of the base portion In a tabletop warming pot in which a lid covering the upper part of the pot part is attached to the shaft part provided on the top so that it can be freely opened and closed by rotation, the tongue is placed at an appropriate position on the outer peripheral surface of the base part in front of the shaft part. Protrusions are projected to a position higher than the upper end of the pan mounted on the frame-shaped base, and a tong insertion part is formed in the lid that is notched to a position corresponding to the height of the tongue locking collar when the lid is closed. It is characterized by.

  Thus, the tongs are hooked on the tong locking rods, and the tip of the tongs is placed in the pan, so there is no hindrance to opening and closing the lid, and the tongs are cooked on the plate with the lid open. When the is placed, the tongue is hooked on the locking rod as it is, and the tip portion is positioned in the pan portion, so that the tongue is not soiled.

  Further, according to the present invention (Claim 2), in the above-described tabletop warmer, a gap portion of an upper opening that follows the outer peripheral surface is formed at a predetermined position of the outer peripheral portion of the base portion, and the gap portion is formed in an inverted U shape. A tongue locking rod provided with a step below is inserted and raised to project. Therefore, the tongue locking rod can be easily attached and detached.

  Further, the present invention (Claim 3) is formed by forming a lid body with a transparent resin body, and providing a vapor venting hole at an upper portion when the lid body is closed, without opening the lid body. Can be confirmed from the outside.

  In addition, the tabletop warming pot according to the present invention (Claim 4) connects the base part and the upper part of the leg part located on the outer periphery of the base part by a fixed shaft of a square bar, and the inside is provided with the fixed shaft. A square recess that can be formed, a round shaft surface on the outer periphery and a symmetrical circular shaft body having a flange portion is formed, and an inner peripheral surface that coincides with the outer peripheral surface of the circular shaft body is provided at the rotational center position of the lid body A lid rotating structure formed by attaching the circular shaft body to the circular hole portion having a passage notch portion of the fixed shaft so that the circular shaft bodies are connected to each other from the front and back sides and are rotatable relative to the lid body. It is prepared.

  Therefore, the lid body can be arbitrarily rotated along the outer peripheral surface of the circular shaft body mounted on the fixed shaft, and the lid body can be easily removed together with the circular shaft body at a predetermined position (lid body fully closed state). And maintenance of the instrument can be performed easily.

  Further, according to the present invention (Claim 5), the base part and the upper part of the leg part positioned on the outer periphery of the base part are connected by a fixed shaft of a square bar, and the leg part of the fixed shaft connecting portion is appropriately sized. A stopper formed so as to be able to protrude and retract to the edge passage position of the lid body below the fixed shaft, a position where the lid body abuts when the lid body is about half-opened, and a rear edge of the lid body A stopper mechanism is used which is arranged at a position where it comes into contact with the edge of the lid when the part is in the fully open state where it does not protrude forward from the base part, and the cover state of the lid can be selected.

  Since the present invention (Claim 1) adopts the above-mentioned configuration, the position of the tongue is determined and is present in the vicinity of the dish, so it is placed directly on the table or placed on a dirty saucer. This will eliminate the problem with tongs.

  Further, by adopting a transparent body for the lid (invention of claim 3), it is possible to confirm the internal dish from the outside without opening the lid, and by adopting a predetermined stopper mechanism (invention 5). In the case of a dish that needs to be opened and closed every time, the lid can be opened and closed in a half-open state so that the opening and closing operation is easy. This makes it easier to use the instrument, which can maintain the fully opened state in a position where no contamination occurs.

  Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. The tabletop warming pot shown in the embodiment includes a frame-shaped table 1, a pot portion 2, and an opening / closing lid mechanism portion 3.

  The frame-shaped table 1 is a rectangular bar-shaped fixed member in which a frame-shaped table part 11 having a predetermined shape (in the example shown in the figure is circular, but may be rectangular or elliptical) protrudes from the left and right positions of the outer peripheral surface of the table part 11. It connects with the leg part 13 via the axis | shaft 12, and becomes a structure which maintains an instrument stably.

  Further, a stopper 14 protrudes from the front part of the base part 11, and a tongue locking part 15 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the base part 11 between the fixed stopper 14 and one of the fixed shafts 12. Movable stoppers 16 and 17 are provided.

  The fixed stopper 14 is a rod-shaped projecting body, on which a handle 312 of the lid body 31 described later is placed, and maintains the fully closed state of the lid body 31.

  The tongue locking part 15 is composed of a tongue locking bar 151 and a gap part 152 to which the tongue locking bar 151 is mounted. The gap part 152 is formed at a predetermined position on the outer peripheral surface of the base part 11. The locking rod 151 is a metal rod having an inverted U shape and provided with a step on the lower side. The lower portion is inserted into the gap portion 152, and the tong locking rod 151 is connected to the upper edge of the base portion 11 (described later). It is made to protrude to a position higher than the upper end of the pot portion to be made. Note that the tongue locking rod 151 can be removed, and is removed for instrument maintenance.

  The movable stoppers 16 and 17 are provided with a portion of the leg portion 13 where the fixed shaft 12 is connected to be slightly wider so that the movable stoppers 16 and 17 can protrude and retract into the rotation locus (passage position) of the edge of the lid 31 at a position parallel to the fixed shaft 12. The leg portion 13 is provided at a predetermined position.

  That is, the movable stoppers 16 and 17 provided at different positions on the left and right leg portions 13 are selectively protruded into the rotation trajectory of the edge of the lid 31 so that the edge of the lid 31 becomes the movable stoppers 16 and 17. The lid 31 is collided and held at the collision position. The collision position includes a position where the lid 31 comes into contact with the edge of the lid 31 when the lid 31 is about half-opened, and a rear edge of the lid 31. This is a position where 311 comes into contact with the edge of the lid 31 when it is in the fully open state where it does not protrude forward from the base 11.

  The pan portion 2 is a so-called hot water bath, and a cooking pan (deep vessel or dish-like, metal or ceramic is selected as appropriate) 21 and a cooking pan 21 are fitted upward. The cooking pot 21 and the hot water pot 22 that are superposed on each other are fitted and mounted on the base 11.

  The heater 23 shown in the figure is an electric heater mounted on the back surface of the hot water pot 22, but a heating means such as solid fuel or alcohol fuel may be employed on a mounting table installed between the left and right legs.

  The opening / closing lid mechanism unit 3 includes a lid body 31 and a rotating shaft body 32. The lid body 31 has a dome shape (determined according to the shape of the base portion 11) and is formed of a transparent resin made of polycarbonate. A handle 312 protrudes from the front edge of the pan portion 2 including the outer periphery of the base portion 11, and a steam vent hole 313 is appropriately drilled at a position corresponding to the tongue locking rod 151. In addition, a tongue insertion portion 314 is formed in a position corresponding to the height of the tongue locking rod 151 (a position at which the tongue locking rod 151 does not obstruct the opening / closing of the lid 31). A circular hole 316 having a passage notch 315 of the fixed shaft 12 is provided at a corresponding position.

  The rotating shaft body 32 is made of polyacetal, and the inner side is a rectangular recess 321 in which the fixed shaft 12 can be housed, the outer periphery is a round shaft surface 322, and a bilaterally symmetric member having a flange 323 is combined to form a lid. It is attached to the body 31. Of course, the material of the cover body 31 and the rotating shaft body 32 is an example, and is not limited thereto.

  The rotation shaft body 32 is attached to the lid body 31 by connecting the front and back surfaces of the circular hole portion 316 of the lid body 31. The inner diameter of the circular hole portion 316 is larger than the width of the passage notch portion 315. By preventing the hook part 323 from coming off in the axial direction, the lid body 31 and the rotary shaft body 32 connected to the lid body 31 can be freely rotated relative to each other.

  Therefore, as illustrated in FIG. 4A, when the opening portions of the passage notch 315 and the corner recess 321 are made to coincide with each other and covered with the fixed shaft 12, the fixed shaft 12 is stabilized at the back of the corner recess 321, and the lid body 31 will freely rotate as shown in FIG.

  Thus, the heater 23 is operated, the hot water pot 22 is fitted and placed in the base 11, the dish is further placed in the cooking pot 21, and the tongue A is locked to the tongue locking rod 151. The front end is positioned on the cooking pan 21, the lid body 31 with the rotating shaft body 32 is attached to the fixed shaft 12, and the lid body 31 is fully closed (FIGS. 2 and 6) to provide a cooking state.

  When it is better not to open the lid 31 as much as possible when the dish to be provided is placed on each person's dish, the stopper 16 is made to protrude in the rotation trajectory of the lid 31 so that the dish is cooked. When each person opens the cover 31, the cover 31 illustrated in FIG. 7 is in a half-opened state, the edge of the cover 31 collides with the stopper 16, and the half-opened state is maintained. When finished, since the handle 312 is positioned above, the operation of closing the lid 31 can be easily performed.

  Of course, the tongue A is locked to the tongue latch 151, and its tip is placed on the cooking pan 21, so that the tongue A can be easily handled and the table or the like can be soiled. Absent.

  In addition, when the dish is provided in an open state, the stopper 17 is protruded into the rotation locus of the lid 31. Then, with the lid 31 illustrated in FIG. 8 in the fully opened state, the edge of the lid 31 collides with the stopper 17 and the fully opened state is maintained. In this case, if the rear edge portion 311 of the lid body 31 does not protrude forward from the base portion 11, the lid body 31 will not be soiled even if cooking is lost. When the cooking pan 21 is replaced, the stopper 17 is also retracted and the lid 31 is rotated 180 degrees.

  Therefore, the above-mentioned tabletop warming pot is convenient in terms of handling the tongs by securing the locking portion of the tongs, and by adopting a transparent lid, you can see the dishes without opening the lid, and the stopper By adopting, the opening and closing operation of the lid according to the dish is facilitated.
