Abstract

The invention relates to a container which makes it possible to cause corn kernels to burst completely in an extremely short time and with no additives. Entirely made of cardboard, this container formed from several flat faces is designed such that the interior is free of any interstices, the lid 1 closing on the outside by means of a tongue 2 whose ends are inserted in the two small openings 3 provided on the front face of the container. The container 1 and the bottom 4 are lined with a panel of corrugated cardboard. The bottom 4 is extended by a handle 5. The container according to the invention is particularly intended to cause corn kernels to burst in a microwave oven in order to obtain pop-corn.

Description

La présente inventicn concerne un récipient qui permet de faire éclater des grains de mais dans un four à micro-ondes. The present invention relates to a container which makes it possible to pop corn grains in a microwave oven.

L'éclatement des grains de mais s'obtient habituellement par échauffement d'huile dans des récipients métalliques posées sur des sourceZde chaleur. The bursting of the corn grains is usually obtained by heating the oil in metal containers placed on heat sources.

L'obtention du pop-corn est fastidieuse par sa longueur de préparation, incom- piète par son éclatement partiel et dangereuse car elle comporte des risques de brulures. L'emploi de récipients en verre dans les fours à micro-ondes présente les mêmes inconvénients.Obtaining popcorn is tedious by its length of preparation, inconsistent with its partial bursting and dangerous because it involves the risk of burns. The use of glass containers in microwave ovens has the same disadvantages.

Le récipient selon l'invention permet d'obtenir un éclatement complet en un temps extrêmement réduit et son utilisation est d'une facilité telle qu'il peut être confié aux enfants capables de faire réchauffer un plat au four à micro-ondes. The container according to the invention makes it possible to obtain a complete bursting in an extremely reduced time and its use is of such ease that it can be entrusted to children capable of heating a dish in the microwave oven.

Pour être compatible avec le four à micro-ondes, ce récipient est entièrement réalisé en carton du genre utilisé pour l'emballage des produits alimentaires. Le fond du récipient étant collé sur un support en carton ondulé, le couvercle s'emboitant à l'aide d'une saillie en carton ondulé également, l'intérieur du récipient ne comporte aucun-interstice ou patte de fermeture dans lesquels risqueraient de se nicher des grains auquel cas ils seraient empêchés d'éclater. La fermeture du couvercle se fait à l'aide d'une languette placée à l'extérieur et faisant corps avec le couvercle, les deux extrémités de la languette s'introduisant dans deux petites ouvertures prévues sur la face avant du récipient. To be compatible with the microwave oven, this container is made entirely of cardboard of the kind used for packaging food products. The bottom of the container being glued to a corrugated cardboard support, the lid fitting together using a corrugated cardboard projection also, the interior of the container has no gap or closing tab in which there is a risk of becoming nest grains in which case they will be prevented from bursting. The closure of the lid is done using a tab placed outside and integral with the lid, the two ends of the tab being introduced into two small openings provided on the front face of the container.

Le récipient en forme de polyèdre comporte plusieures faceyDlates. L'une de ces faces doit être en contact direct avec le plateau en verre du fajr à micro-ondes. Etant donné la haute temperature que reçoit le récipient, il convient d'alterner ces faces lors d'une utilisation répétée. The polyhedron-shaped container has several faceyDlates. One of these faces must be in direct contact with the glass tray of the microwave fajr. Given the high temperature the container receives, these faces should be alternated during repeated use.

Le fond du récipient ainsi que le couvercle étant doublés chacun d 'une plaque de carton ondulé, la chaleur propulsée par les micro-ondes se trouve auppentée et emmagasinée pendant un certain temps, ce qui permet un éclatement encore plus rapide à partir de la deuxième utilisation successive. The bottom of the container as well as the lid being each lined with a corrugated cardboard plate, the heat propelled by the microwaves is increased and stored for a certain time, which allows an even faster bursting from the second successive use.

L'anse faisant corps avec le fond du récipient, conserve une temperature supportable au toucher, ce qui facilite la sortie du récipient de son four.The handle, integral with the bottom of the container, maintains a temperature that is bearable to the touch, which facilitates the removal of the container from its oven.

Figure 1 shows in perspective, the open container.

La figure 2 représente le récipient fermé. Figure 2 shows the closed container.

La figure 3 représente le fond du récipient qui comporte l'anse. Figure 3 shows the bottom of the container which has the handle.

Le récipient représenté sur la figure 1 est une boite dans laquelle il faut introduire des grains de mais en quantité réduite mais suffisante pour que la boite soit entièrement remplie après éclatement. Sa fermeture représentée en figure 2 résiste à l'éclatement du mais étant donné que le couvercle (1) une fois rabattu est maintenu par la languette (2) dont les extrémités sont introduites dans les deux petites ouvertures prévues sur la face avant du récipient. La figure 3 représente l'anse (5)-faisant corps avec le fond du récipient. The container shown in Figure 1 is a box into which it is necessary to introduce corn grains in a reduced quantity but sufficient for the box to be completely filled after bursting. Its closure, shown in FIG. 2, resists bursting of the maize, since the cover (1) once folded is held by the tongue (2), the ends of which are introduced into the two small openings provided on the front face of the container. Figure 3 shows the handle (5) -body with the bottom of the container.

Le récipient selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à faire éclater les grains de mais dans un four à micro-ondes afin d'obtenir du pop-corn. The container according to the invention is particularly intended for popping the corn kernels in a microwave oven in order to obtain popcorn.
