Description

    TECHNICAL FIELD
  • The present disclosure relates to a disposable sauce container, and more particularly, to a disposable sauce container for functioning as a container allowing sauce contained therein to be eaten without being squeezed out onto a wrapper or printed paper.
  • BACKGROUND ART
  • Fast food restaurants usually provide single-use sauce. As shown in FIG. 1, single-use sauce is contained in a tube-type package 200 so that a user tears along a dotted line 210 in a corner portion and squeezes out the sauce. Because a container on which the single-use sauce is dispensed is not separately provided, the user squeezes out the sauce, i.e., ketchup, mayonnaise, or the like, onto a piece of paper printed with advertising messages, the lid of a beverage container, or the like.
  • However, when sauce is squeezed out onto and eaten from a piece of paper printed with advertising messages, ink or the like printed on the paper may dissolve into the sauce and do harm to the human body. When the lid of a beverage container is used, a beverage may be spilled from the container because the lid has been taken off the beverage container.
  • DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS TECHNICAL PROBLEM
  • Provided is a disposable sauce container for enabling a disposable sauce package to function as a container allowing sauce contained in the disposable sauce package to be eaten without being squeezed out onto a wrapper or printed paper.
  • SOLUTION TO PROBLEM
  • According to an aspect of the present disclosure, a disposable sauce container for accommodating sauce therein includes an opening part in one of a front surface and a rear surface to be opened by a user, wherein the user is able to take the sauce with the opening part opened.
  • The opening part may include a separation portion detached from the front surface or the rear surface and a grip portion gripped by the user.
  • The separation portion 31 may include a central portion and an adhesive portion, the central portion being separated from the front surface or the rear surface and forming a feeding hole, and the adhesive portion being at an outer circumference of the central portion and attachable to and detachable from the front surface or the rear surface.
  • ADVANTAGEOUS EFFECTS OF DISCLOSURE
  • According to the present disclosure, a disposable sauce container allows sauce to be exposed when an opening part is opened, without requiring the sauce to be taken out on printed paper or another container, so that the sauce may be conveniently eaten.
  • In addition, because a user may easily open an opening part in a front or rear surface of the disposable sauce container and may close the opening part when throwing away the disposable sauce container after eating the sauce, the disposable sauce container is sanitary and surroundings may be kept clean.
  • BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
    • FIG. 1 is a diagram of a disposable sauce container according to the related art.
    • FIG. 2 is a plan view of a disposable sauce container according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
    • FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a state in which an opening part in FIG. 2 is opened.
    • FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a state in which sauce is eaten.
    • FIGS. 5 and 6 are plan views of disposable sauce containers according to different embodiments of the present disclosure.
    MODE OF DISCLOSURE
  • Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
  • FIG. 2 is a plan view of a disposable sauce container according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating a state in which an opening part in FIG. 2 is opened, and FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a state in which sauce is eaten.
  • Referring to FIG. 2, according to an embodiment, a disposable sauce container 100 accommodates sauce 1 therein and includes an opening part 30 in a front surface 10 or a rear surface 20 to be opened by a user.
  • According to the present embodiment, the disposable sauce container 100 has a space accommodating the sauce 1 inside as the edge of the front surface 10 is bonded to the edge of the rear surface 20. The opening part 30 is formed in either the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20. According to the present embodiment, the opening part 30 is formed in a central portion of the front surface 10. When the opening part 30 is opened, a user may take the sauce 1 with the opening part 30 opened. In other words, the user may take the sauce 1 without squeezing out the sauce 1 onto another container.
  • The opening part 30 includes a separation portion 31 and a grip portion 32.
  • The separation portion 31 is detached from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20. The separation portion 31 includes a central portion 311 and an adhesive portion 312.
  • The central portion 311 is separated from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20 and thus forms a feeding hole 33. According to the present embodiment, a middle portion marked with a dotted line in the separation portion 31 is separated from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20 when the separation portion 31 is detached from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20. As a result, the feeding hole 33 is formed in the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20 to expose the sauce 1.
  • The adhesive portion 312 is at an outer circumference of the central portion 311 and is attachable to and detachable from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20. After eating, the feeding hole 33 may be closed using the adhesive portion 312 of the separation portion 31. The adhesive portion 312 covers the feeding hole 33 and adheres to the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20. When the disposable sauce container 100 is thrown away, the feeding hole 33 may be closed to prevent the sauce 1 remaining in the disposable sauce container 100 from spattering outside, and accordingly, the disposable sauce container 100 is sanitary and surroundings may be kept clean.
  • The grip portion 32 is provided for a user to grip when detaching the separation portion 31. The grip portion 32 is joined to an edge of the separation portion 31. When a user holds the grip portion 32 and detaches the separation portion 31 from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20, the central portion 311 is separated from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20, thereby forming the feeding hole 33.
  • The work of the disposable sauce container 100 having the configuration described above will be described in detail below.
  • According to an embodiment, the disposable sauce container 100 has a space, in which the sauce 1 is accommodated, therein as the edge of the front surface 10 is bonded to the edge of the rear surface 20. The opening part 30 is formed in either the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20. A user may take the sauce 1 with the opening part 30 opened.
  • As shown in FIG. 4, when the separation portion 31 is detached from the front surface 10 or the rear surface 20 and thus forms the feeding hole 33, a user may dip food 2 in the sauce 1 in the disposable sauce container 100. Accordingly, the user may easily and swiftly take the sauce 1 in a sanitary way, without squeezing the sauce 1 out of the disposable sauce container 100 on printed paper or the like.
  • As described above, when the disposable sauce container 100 is used, the sauce 1 does not need to be squeezed out of the disposable sauce container 100 and does not need to be put on printed paper or the like. Because the sauce 1 may be eaten immediately after the separation portion 31 of the disposable sauce container 100 is detached, the sauce 1 may be conveniently eaten.
  • In addition, when the disposable sauce container 100 is disposed, the feeding hole 33 may be closed using the adhesive portion 312 of the separation portion 31, and therefore, the disposal may be managed in a sanitary way and surroundings may be kept clean.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 are plan views of disposable sauce containers 100 according to different embodiments of the present disclosure. According to the embodiments of FIGS. 5 and 6, the overall shapes of the disposable sauce containers 100 and the shapes of separation portions 31 are different compared to the embodiment of FIG. 2. The configuration and work of the embodiments of FIGS. 5 and 6 are the same as those of the embodiment of FIG. 2, and thus, detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted.
  • The present disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments above but is not limited thereto, and various modifications may be provided without departing from the scope of the present disclosure.
