Abstract

Disclosed herein is a vacuum cover, which is coupled to an object to define storage space isolated from the exterior, and moves in a direction that reduces the volume of the storage space due to its elasticity, thus discharging air from the storage space, therefore improving sealing ability and preventing food stored in the storage space from contacting the air. The vacuum cover is made of elastomer, such as silicone rubber, and integrally has a member for air-tightly contacting an object or a valve for supplying or exhausting the air. The vacuum cover includes an elastic body, which isolates storage space from an exterior and is deformed so that air is exhausted from or supplied to the storage space, and a valve provided at a predetermined position on the body to discharge and/or supply the air from and/or to the storage space.
