Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a food container with a partition, which is suitable as a lunch container or the like that can store food in at least two stages in a separated state.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 For example, the one that has been conventionally provided as a food container that directly stores stewed foods and other side foods on top of main foods such as Tenshi, and heavy, beef bowl, rice, etc. A container consisting of multiple food items can be stored together, or a container with multiple storage compartments can be stored separately for each type of food, or the containers can be multi-tiered. In addition, food was stored in multiple stages in each container.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the case of the type that is stored together above, there is a problem that the taste of each food item will be impaired with the passage of time because the odors and tastes will be mixed or the juice and oil will penetrate. Although the storage is suitable for normal food storage, it is not suitable as a container for foods such as heavy foods and bowls that are eaten with staple foods and side foods together. If the food and side dishes are stored together, it will be substantially the same as the above-mentioned storage. Furthermore, the above-mentioned multi-stage storage is substantially the same as the separate storage, and if the multi-stage containers are to be combined with each other. Although it can be done, one of the containers must be turned over for that purpose, and the food is disturbed in an inverted state, which is not preferable in terms of handling and appearance.

The present invention has been made in view that the conventional container as described above lacks a preferable function as a container for eating together or cooking together, and separates and stores foods. In addition, the object is to provide a food container with a partition, which can combine these foods easily and safely when needed, and in a condition that is visually pleasing.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention has a container body having an upper opening, and a split type partitioning body having a split portion that can be split at an intermediate portion of the upper opening to close the opening. Then, the food container with a partition is used.

The split type partition body has an inner bottom surface in which at least one divided body has an area corresponding to or larger than a corresponding divided area of the upper opening, and an open side end of the inner bottom surface. It can be formed by having a superposed portion formed on the portion and a joining edge portion to the upper edge portion of the container body formed on the peripheral edge portion of the inner bottom surface excluding the superposed portion.

Further, the split type intermediate partition body has a mid-bottom surface that has a splitting means in an intermediate portion and closes an upper opening of the container body, and a joining edge to the upper edge portion of the container body formed at a peripheral end portion of the mid-bottom surface. It can also be formed having a part.

In the above, in the split type partition body, the split portion such as the overlapped portion of the inner bottom surface or the portion having the split means, or the surface near the central portion is higher than that near the peripheral end portion. It is preferably molded.

[0009]

[Action]

 If the split-type partition is joined so as to close the upper opening of the container body, the container will have at least two separate storage parts. If you pull it out horizontally or sequentially, the food on it will fit on the food in the container.

[0010]

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. 1 to 5 show an example of the present invention, FIGS. 1 and 2 show the partition body thereof, and FIGS. 3 to 5 show the combination and operation of the container body and the partition body.

In the container body 1 according to the present invention, the upper opening 2 may have an arbitrary shape such as a rectangular shape or a polygonal shape in plan view, or a circular shape, but in the figure, the upper opening 2 has a rectangular shape and its peripheral edge is outside. It is formed as a bent upper edge portion 3, and the material may be any material such as pressure / vacuum molding or injection molding made of any material.

The partition type partition body 4 is a combination of a plurality of partition bodies, and in the figure, two partition bodies 5, 6 are combined. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, each of the divided bodies 5 and 6 has an inner bottom surface 7 having a size that substantially matches the area of one of the upper openings 2 divided into two. An overlapping portion 8 as a dividing portion having an appropriate width is integrally formed at the dividing side end, and one or more cut grooves 9 cut from the dividing side end are formed in the overlapping portion 8 at appropriate intervals. Two lines are formed, and the peripheral end portions of the other three sides of the inner bottom surface 7 excluding the above divided side end are raised to an arbitrary height to form a rising end portion 10, and then the upper edge portion 3 of the container body 1 is formed. A joining edge portion 11 to be joined in the adhered state is extended, and a knob piece 12 is formed in an outward extension shape at the central portion of the joining edge portion 11 formed on the side opposite to the divided side end. The material is a non-hygroscopic material and is formed by an arbitrary material having an appropriate shape-retaining property by an arbitrary manufacturing method, preferably by pneumatic or vacuum forming.

The rising end portion 10 is formed at a height corresponding to the type of food to be placed on the split-type intermediate partition 4 so that the food can be stably and easily placed. The bottom surface 7 may be formed so as to have an arbitrary depth, and as shown in the drawing, preferably the vicinity of the dividing side of the medial bottom surface 7 (preferably near the center of the medial bottom surface) is closer than the end portion on the opposite side thereof. It is formed so as to be slightly shallow, that is, at the upper level.

The split bodies 5 and 6 are engaged with each other so that the cut grooves 9 and 9 are engaged with each other, and when the groove bottoms are brought into a locked state, the overlapping portions 8 and 8 are overlapped with each other. 2 becomes a split type intermediate partition body 4 as shown in FIG. 2, and the split type intermediate partition body 4 is attached to the container body 1 so that the joining edges 11, 11 are joined to the upper edge portion 3 as shown in FIG. When stacked, a two-stage container composed of the container body 1 and the split type partition body 4 is formed.

In such a two-tiered container, for example, rice A is stored in the container body 1 in advance, and a desired food which is desired to be eaten on the rice A before or after being joined to the split partition member 4 is desired. B, for example, when the weight is heavy, it is cooked, and when the weight is heavy, the tempura can be placed and the lid 13 can be used.

In this case, in the split type intermediate partition body 4, the inner bottom surfaces 7, 7 of the respective split bodies 5, 6 are such that the vicinity of their overlapping portions 8, 8 is higher than the end portion on the side of the picking piece 12. If it is molded, the food B can be stably and reliably supported without sagging and sagging even if it receives the load of the food B. Further, the overlapping portions 8 and 8 increase the support strength of the food B, reduce the deformation of the divided bodies 5 and 6, and serve to reliably support the food B in the separated state.

When eating, as shown in FIG. 5, by opening the lid and then gently pulling the split bodies 5 and 6 to the left and right sides, the overlapping portions 8 and 8 serving as split portions are separated from each other. Since the food B is placed on the rice A, it can be directly eaten as a combined food. The draw 12 is more convenient if the pick 12 is provided. In this case, the food B can be safely and stably placed on the rice A without spoiling the original state by simply pulling out the inner bottom surface 7 on the lower surface of the food B in the lateral direction. It is possible to maintain a preferable condition and obtain a combined food product in a fresh condition.

Although the container body 1 has been described as a container having no partition wall in the drawings, it is needless to say that the container body 1 may have a partition wall. The inner bottom surface 7 capable of accommodating the food B may be configured so as to be placed in one or more accommodating portions, or such a method may be used in use.

Further, although the split type partition body 4 has been described as a single receiving surface configuration without partition portions in the figure, it partially forms appropriate partition ribs or partition walls, and a part thereof is in a separated state. It may be possible to store food in.

6 and 7 show an embodiment of a split type intermediate partition body 4a different from the above-mentioned split type intermediate partition body 4, wherein the overlapping portions of the inner bottom surfaces 7a, 7a of the split bodies 5a, 6a are shown. 8a, 8a are formed with a few uneven projections 14a, 14a that engage with each other. In the superposed state, the engagement of both projections makes it possible to stabilize the superposition of the two divided bodies 5, 6. It is a thing. If such an engagement structure is adopted, the rising end portions 10 may be in substantially the same height state as a whole. When the divided bodies 5a and 6a are drawn, since the projections and depressions 14a and 14a have a slight resistance, the divided bodies 5a and 6a can be easily drawn while being lightly removed.

In addition, in the above, if the inner bottom surfaces 7 and 7a have an appropriate shape-retaining property, the cut grooves 9 and the projections and depressions 14a of the split intermediate partition bodies 4 and 4a are not provided, and the overlapping portions are simply overlapped. It can also be Further, in place of the cut groove 9 and the uneven projection 14a, another arbitrary fitting or engaging structure can be adopted.

FIG. 8 shows an embodiment of a split type intermediate partition body 4b which is different from the above. The split type intermediate partition body 4b can integrally close the upper opening 2 of the container body 1. It is formed as a shape, and in the middle part of the inner bottom surface 7b, a perforation is formed over the entire width in the lateral direction, or a stretch direction is formed by giving a cutting directionality, and a cut is formed at the end. By forming the split portion 15b which can be arbitrarily torn by forming it, the split type intermediate partition body 4b can be divided into split bodies 5b and 6b by picking and cutting the split portion 15b with a finger. Is formed. After the divided bodies 5b and 6b are formed, they can be handled in the same manner as in the above-mentioned embodiment. It is optional to extend the knob portion at the end of the divided portion 15b, and other configurations can be the same as those in the above-described embodiment.

In any of the above-mentioned embodiments, the dividing portion such as the overlapping portion 8 or the dividing portion 15b can be provided at a position closer to one side in addition to being provided in the central portion of the dividing type partition body. Moreover, you may form a division part in a longitudinal direction.

Further, the inner bottom surface of the split type partition member is formed by a rising rib or a partition wall so as to be partitioned into a plurality of storage portions, and a split portion is formed in an intermediate portion of at least one of the plurality of storage portions. It is also possible to make it separable, or to form a dividing part in the middle part of each of the plurality of storage parts so that it can be divided for each storage part. In this case, when the storage part of the split type partition is rectangular in plan view, it is formed by partitioning and dividing parts are combined in both vertical and horizontal directions, and when it is circular, the combination of radial partitioning and dividing parts is formed. It is preferably formed as a joint.
