DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cold storage container used for leisure such as fishing.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, cold storage containers used for fishing and other leisure activities are mainly formed of hard plastic on the outer surface. However, these cold storage containers are heavy and bulky, and almost any type of cold storage container in appearance. Is similarly unchanged.

[0003] For this reason, in recent years, a cold storage container having an improved appearance using a decorative sheet such as a woven fabric or a leather sheet on the outer surface has been used. These cool containers are provided with a cool cover having a skirt formed on the periphery of the top plate portion.When the cover is closed, the skirt covers the periphery of the upper opening of the container body. It is configured.

[0004]

In the cold storage container having the above-described structure, since the lid for closing the upper opening is a single-piece structure, if the lid is frequently opened and closed, the internal cold air easily leaks, and the cold storage effect is obtained. Will decrease. Also, usually, since the top plate and the skirt are formed separately from each other, cold air easily leaks from folds at the corners, traces of sewing, and the like.
Further, the cooling effect is reduced.

[0005] The present invention has been made based on the above problems, and has as its object to provide a cold storage container which is good in appearance and hardly leaks cool air.

[0006]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a refrigerating container according to the present invention has a lid having a top plate part integrally formed with a skirt on a peripheral edge, and the skirt is provided above a container main body. It is configured to cover the periphery of the opening,
The upper opening of the container main body has an inner lid attached to the container main body by a hinge , and the inner lid is provided around the container main body.
And operate the chuck attached around the inner lid
Thus, the upper opening can be opened and closed.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of a cool container showing one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a side view of the cool container, FIG. 3 is a plan view of the cool container, FIG. FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view of a heat-deformable synthetic resin heat insulating plate and a decorative sheet having flexibility used in manufacturing the lid, and FIG. 6 illustrates a mold used in manufacturing the lid. It is sectional side view shown.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, a container body 1 of the cold storage container is provided with a synthetic resin heat insulating plate 4 between waterproof sheets 2 and 3.
Are sandwiched between them. The container body 1 has an opening 1a at the upper side, and the inner lid 5 and the lid 6 are fixed to the rear side of the opening 1a by a hinge. The lid body 6 has a curved top plate portion 6a and a skirt 6b around the periphery thereof, and these have flexibility that is overlaid on and under the synthetic resin heat insulating plate 8 as in the following manufacturing process. Decorative sheet 9,
10 and are integrally formed by heat and pressure deformation.

First, as shown in FIG. 5, an adhesive is applied to the upper and lower surfaces of a heat-deformable synthetic resin heat insulating plate 8 such as an ethylene vinyl acetate foam, as shown in FIG.
Each of the decorative sheets 9 and 10 having flexibility, such as a nylon woven cloth, is bonded to each. Then, as shown in FIG. 6, this is sandwiched between the molds 17 and 18 corresponding to the shape of the lid, heat is applied, and hot-pressed, whereby the curved top plate shown in FIGS. The portion 6a and the peripheral skirt 6b are made of a heat-deformable synthetic resin heat insulating plate 8 and a flexible decorative sheet 9,
10 are integrally formed seamlessly. The edge of the skirt 6b of the molded lid is sewn with the edging tape 11, so that the degree of adhesion of the integrally formed skirt end to the cold storage container main body is increased and the cold storage effect can be improved. At the same time, it is possible to prevent the decorative sheets 9 and 10 from peeling off from the synthetic resin heat insulating plate 8.

According to the above-described structure of the lid, the surface of the lid 6 having the top plate portion and the skirt formed by the heat and pressure deformation is:
It is covered with a decorative sheet 9 without wrinkles, and the back side is similarly covered with a decorative sheet 10 without wrinkles.
Has no folds or sewing marks at the corners of the lid. Also, a top plate portion 6a and a peripheral skirt 6b
Since the synthetic resin heat insulating plate 8 is formed integrally by hot-press deformation, the skirt 6b does not open outward,
Its shape is maintained. In the above manufacturing process,
The synthetic resin heat insulating plate and the decorative sheet can be integrally attached at the time of hot-pressure deformation without using an adhesive.

The inner lid 5, which is connected to the rear side of the opening 1a of the container main body 1 by a hinge, has a synthetic resin heat insulating plate 4 sandwiched between the waterproof sheets 2 and 3, similarly to the container main body 1. Is formed. A chuck 7 is attached between the periphery of the opening 1a of the container body 1 and the periphery of the inner lid 5, and by operating the chuck, the inner lid 5 is opened.
It is configured to be able to open and close via a hinge.

U-shaped hanging handles 12 and 13 are fixed to the front and back sides of the container body 1, and pockets 14 are provided on the front side of the container body 1. A shoulder strap (not shown) is provided on both sides of the container body 1 so as to be extendable and contractible by a fixture 15. Further, a stopper 16 is provided above the container body 1 and on the lid 6.

In the cold storage container configured as described above, when the container body 1 is covered with the lid 6, the upper periphery of the container body 1 is covered with the skirt 6b of the lid 6, so that the cool air hardly leaks from the periphery. . In particular, the surface of the lid 6 is
The decorative sheet 9 is covered with the decorative sheet 9 without wrinkles so as to conform to the shapes of the a and the skirt 6b, and the decorative sheet cannot be creased or sewn on corners or the like. There is no leakage of cold air.
In addition, since the top plate portion 6a is curved upward and cannot be recessed, the water is well drained, and rainwater does not accumulate even when used during rain.

Further, by closing the inner lid 5, the leakage of cool air from the container body 1 is more effectively prevented. In particular, since the synthetic resin heat insulating plate 4 is sandwiched, the cooling effect is improved. Better. Further, by closing the inner lid 5, the contents in the container main body are double protected by the inner lid 5 and the outer lid 6, so that damage to the contents can be prevented. Further, since the inner lid 5 is formed of a waterproof sheet, intrusion of water into the container body is prevented.

[0015]

As described above, according to the present invention,
When the container body is covered with the lid, the upper periphery of the container body
Because it is covered with a skirt, it is difficult for cold air to leak from the periphery
In addition, since the upper opening of the container main body can be opened and closed by the inner lid attached to the container main body, leakage of cool air from the container main body is effectively prevented, and the cooling effect is improved. In addition, by closing the inner lid with the chuck, the contents in the container main body are double-protected by the inner lid and the outer lid, so that it is possible to prevent the contents from being spilled or damaged.
