JP2000107049A - Manual rice washing container capable of saving conventional rice washing time and water quantity without damaging rice (or beams or other granular stuff) only by lightly shaking the container without direct hand-touch of rice or water - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily wash rice without hand-touch of rice by shaking rice by providing measuring scales for measuring quantity of rice and water on inside and outside side surfaces of a container main body provided with double covers of an inner cover on which a small round type hole of a degree so as not to leak rice is opened and an outer cover from which water is leaked. SOLUTION: On both of inside and outside side surfaces of a vertically long and cylindrical container main body 5, scales 1 capable of measuring quantity of rice and proper quantity of water for the quantity of rice are provided. On a side surface different from these side surfaces, scales for measuring quantity of wheat flour and quantity of sugar are provided. Double covers are adhered to an upper opening of this container main body 5, the inner cover is formed so as to have many round type holes smaller than (a grain of rice) and the outer cover is formed so that water may not be leaked. After rice and water are put into the container main body 1 and the covers are adhered, rice washing is performed by shaking the container in the vertical direction by holding the container in the hand, only the outer cover is removed after rice washing and only water is thrown away. After rice washing is completely performed, the inner cover is removed, rice is transferred to a rice cooking pot and rice cooking is performed.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a container for washing rice without rubbing and damaging the rice and rice by directly putting water and rice in the container without touching the rice and water. About.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In conventional rice washing, the amount of rice is measured and put into a rice cooker or other container bowl, and water is put into the rice bowl and mixed by hand. Next, throw away the dirty water with extreme care so that the rice does not spill while placing the container on the palm at an angle. This process is repeated many times, and after the rice is beautiful, the water is cut cleanly and a suitable amount of water is measured and put in.

[0003]

In conventional rice washing, water and time are wasted to damage the inner wall of the rice cooker, get rough hands, and wash rice evenly. Also, if you put too much effort into your hands when washing rice, the rice will often be damaged, and when you drain the water, the rice will often fall together.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention does not wash rice in a rice cooker, attaches a measuring scale to a container, doubles a lid, and places rice on an inner lid. Make a lot of smaller holes like a net, and the outer lid keeps water from leaking. Therefore, the rice is not washed directly by hand, and the hand is not roughened. Also, with the scale, the amount of rice and the amount of water relative to the amount of rice can be measured without using a separate measuring cup. Just add a small amount of water and shake the container gently. The sides of the rice will rub, and the rice will be sharpened evenly in a short time without damaging the rice. Water is used to sharpen the rice, and then only needed once to wash the polished rice, thus saving water usage. Furthermore, since a hole smaller than the size of rice is provided in the inner lid, when water is spilled, the water can be discarded without spilling the rice.

[0005]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A vertically long, cylindrical container main body has a double lid attached to its upper part. On both inside and outside surfaces of the container body, there are provided scales for measuring the amount of rice and the amount of water appropriate for the amount of rice. It also has a scale to measure the amount of flour and sugar. The inner lid attached to the top has a number of small round holes (than rice grains). The outer lid is a simple upper lid that does not leak water during rice washing.

[0006]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Rice and water are put in a container and both inner and outer lids are attached.
Shake the container up and down by hand to sharpen the rice, remove only the outer lid, turn the container upside down and discard only the water. Add a large amount of water again, cover the outer lid, shake the container to wash the dirt on the rice, open the outer lid only, and discard the dirty water. After washing the rice, remove the inner lid, add an appropriate amount of water according to the scale, and transfer to a rice cooker to cook.

[0007]

According to the present invention, rice is not washed directly by hand, so that hands are not roughened. Because the scale is attached to the container body, the amount of rice and the amount of water appropriate for the amount of rice can be measured without using a separate measuring cup. Just add a small amount of water and shake the container gently, and the sides of the rice will rub, and the rice will be sharpened evenly in a short time without damaging the rice. The water is only needed to sharpen the rice and once for washing the rice after washing, thus saving water usage. With a small round hole in the inner lid, you can throw away the water without spilling the rice.
