Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
この発明は、冷蔵庫内で野菜を新鮮に保存するための容器に関している。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、冷蔵庫内に設けられた野菜収納庫に野菜を収納するには、野菜を包まないで裸のまま収納したり、ラップに包んで収納したり、購入時に包装されているビニール袋に入った状態で収納することが多い。野菜の保存方法を知っている人は、野菜を新聞紙に包んで収納している。或いは、合成樹脂製野菜保存袋に入れて収納している。
【0003】
【発明の解決しようとする課題】
野菜は生物であり、呼吸している。そのため、野菜に細く長く呼吸させる状態を保たせると、野菜の鮮度が長持ちし、栄養価の高い野菜を摂取できることが知られている。昔からの知恵として、新聞紙に野菜をくるむ方法は、酸素の供給を新聞紙の材質の通気性でコントロールするので、野菜の鮮度を長持ちさせる有効手段として利用されている。しかし、毎回、野菜を使用の都度包み直す必要があり、新聞紙も汚れたりしわになって包みにくくなるので能率的でなく、包装された中身が見えない欠点がある。
【0004】
包装しないで野菜を冷蔵庫内に備えられた野菜収納ケースに入れると、鮮度の落ちるのが早い。店やスーパーマーケット等で販売しているラップ包装やビニール包装の状態で冷蔵庫内で保管すると、野菜に酸素を供給することができないので、野菜は呼吸することができず鮮度が落ち、傷みが早い。
【0005】
そこで、合成樹脂製保存袋が提供されている。この合成樹脂製保存袋を使用すると、中身が見え、野菜の保存状態も良好に保つことができる。しかし、合成樹脂製保存袋は反復使用するのに適していなく、洗って乾燥させることも難しいので使い捨てとなりやすく、コスト高になる。また、冷蔵庫内に野菜を整理して収納するためには冷蔵庫のサイズに合わせた容器を使用するのが望ましい。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1に記載の野菜保存容器においては、野菜保存容器1の胴体2を蛇腹状に形成している。この胴体2の周囲には容器1に通気性を持たせるため、無数の細かい孔3が開いている。野菜保存容器1の上部には、一辺で折り返せるように形成した蓋4を装着し、上部からの空気の流入を遮断している。
【0007】
請求項2に記載の野菜保存容器5においては、野菜保存容器5は立方体に形成され、胴体6に無数の細かい孔7が開けられ、野菜保存容器5内に収納した野菜9が呼吸できるようにし、上部には、一辺で折り返せるように形成した蓋8を装着し、上部からの空気の流入を遮断している。
【0008】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の実施例を図面を参照して説明する。
【0009】
図1は請求項1に記載の野菜保存容器の斜視図である。野菜保存容器1の胴体2は蛇腹状になっているので、伸縮する。このため、野菜のサイズに合わせて胴体2の長さを変えることができるので、余分なスペースを必要としない利点がある。野菜保存容器1の上部には蓋4が装着されている。蓋4は一辺が野菜保存容器1の上端と折り返し可能に接続していて、空気の流入を阻止している。胴体2には細かい孔3が開いているので、野菜9が野菜保存容器1内でかすかに呼吸することができるため、野菜9を新鮮に保存することができる。
【0010】
図2は請求項1に記載の野菜保存容器1の胴体2を一杯に伸ばした状態を示している。野菜保存容器1の胴体2は蛇腹状になっているため、伸縮自在で一杯に伸ばした際は大根やゴボウのように丈の長い野菜9にも対応できる。野菜保存容器1は常に立てておく必要はなく、冷蔵庫内で寝かせて収納することもできる。野菜保存容器1の材質、形状は限定されず、各種形状が考えられる。
【0011】
図3は請求項1に記載の野菜保存容器1に野菜9を収納したり、野菜保存容器1から野菜9を取り出す際に、胴体2の蛇腹を一部縮めた状態を示している。蓋4を開けて胴体2の蛇腹を縮めれば、野菜9が露出するので、取り出しが簡単である。野菜保存容器1内に野菜9を整理して配列するため胴体2が縮まれば楽であり、小さい野菜9も、大きい野菜9も一緒に収納することもできる。
【0012】
図4は請求項2に記載の野菜保存容器5の斜視図である。野菜保存容器5は四角形の立方体に形成されているが、形状は四角形に限らず、円形、楕円形等各種の形状が考えられる。野菜保存容器5の胴体6に無数の細かい孔7が開けられ、野菜保存容器5内に収納した野菜9がかすかに呼吸できるようにしている。野菜保存容器5の上部に折り返せるように接続した蓋8を装着することで上部からの空気の流入を遮断している。
【0013】
【発明の効果】
野菜を冷蔵庫内で新鮮に保つことができる。
【0014】
野菜保存容器が伸縮するので、野菜の各種サイズに対応でき、冷蔵庫内のスペースを有効活用できる。
【0015】
野菜保存容器へ野菜を収納したり、野菜保存容器から野菜を取り出すのが楽である。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a container for storing vegetables fresh in a refrigerator.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in order to store vegetables in the vegetable storage provided in the refrigerator, vegetables were stored naked without wrapping, wrapped in wraps, or placed in plastic bags that were wrapped at the time of purchase. It is often stored in a state. People who know how to store vegetables store them in newspapers. Alternatively, it is stored in a synthetic resin vegetable storage bag.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Vegetables are living things and breathe. For this reason, it is known that when a vegetable is kept in a state where it is allowed to breathe thin and long, the freshness of the vegetable is long-lasting and a nutritious vegetable can be ingested. As a traditional wisdom, the method of wrapping vegetables in newsprint is used as an effective means to extend the freshness of vegetables because the supply of oxygen is controlled by the permeability of the material of the newsprint. However, it is necessary to rewrap the vegetables each time it is used, and newspapers become dirty and wrinkled, making it difficult to wrap them.
[0004]
If you put the vegetables in the vegetable storage case inside the refrigerator without packing, the freshness will drop quickly. When stored in a refrigerator in the form of plastic wraps or plastic wraps sold in stores or supermarkets, the vegetables cannot be supplied with oxygen, so they cannot breathe, are fresh, and are damaged quickly.
[0005]
Thus, synthetic resin storage bags have been provided. When this synthetic resin storage bag is used, the contents can be seen, and the storage state of the vegetables can be kept good. However, synthetic resin storage bags are not suitable for repeated use, and are difficult to wash and dry. In addition, in order to arrange and store vegetables in the refrigerator, it is desirable to use a container according to the size of the refrigerator.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In the vegetable storage container according to the first aspect, the body 2 of the vegetable storage container 1 is formed in a bellows shape. In the periphery of the body 2, countless fine holes 3 are opened in order to allow the container 1 to have air permeability. A lid 4 formed so as to be folded at one side is attached to the upper part of the vegetable storage container 1 to block the inflow of air from the upper part.
[0007]
In the vegetable storage container 5 according to claim 2, the vegetable storage container 5 is formed in a cube, and the body 6 is provided with countless fine holes 7 so that the vegetables 9 stored in the vegetable storage container 5 can breathe. On the upper part, a lid 8 formed so as to be able to be folded at one side is attached to block the inflow of air from the upper part.
[0008]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0009]
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the vegetable storage container according to the first embodiment. Since the body 2 of the vegetable storage container 1 has a bellows shape, it expands and contracts. For this reason, since the length of the body 2 can be changed according to the size of the vegetables, there is an advantage that no extra space is required. A lid 4 is attached to the upper part of the vegetable storage container 1. One side of the lid 4 is foldably connected to the upper end of the vegetable storage container 1 to prevent air from flowing in. Since the small holes 3 are opened in the body 2, the vegetables 9 can be slightly breathed in the vegetable storage container 1, so that the vegetables 9 can be stored fresh.
[0010]
FIG. 2 shows a state in which the body 2 of the vegetable storage container 1 according to the first aspect is fully extended. Since the body 2 of the vegetable storage container 1 has a bellows shape, it can be stretched and stretched to the extent that it can handle a long vegetable 9 like radish or burdock. The vegetable storage container 1 does not need to be kept upright at all times, and can be stored lying down in a refrigerator. The material and shape of the vegetable storage container 1 are not limited, and various shapes are conceivable.
[0011]
FIG. 3 shows a state in which the bellows of the body 2 are partially shortened when the vegetables 9 are stored in the vegetable storage container 1 according to the first embodiment or when the vegetables 9 are taken out of the vegetable storage container 1. If the lid 4 is opened and the bellows of the body 2 are contracted, the vegetables 9 are exposed, so that the removal is easy. Since the vegetables 9 are arranged and arranged in the vegetable storage container 1, it is easy if the body 2 shrinks, and the small vegetables 9 and the large vegetables 9 can be stored together.
[0012]
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the vegetable storage container 5 according to the second aspect. Although the vegetable storage container 5 is formed in a square cube, the shape is not limited to a square, and various shapes such as a circle and an ellipse can be considered. Numerous fine holes 7 are formed in the body 6 of the vegetable storage container 5 so that the vegetables 9 stored in the vegetable storage container 5 can breathe slightly. The inflow of air from above is shut off by attaching a lid 8 connected to the upper part of the vegetable storage container 5 so as to be able to be folded back.
[0013]
【The invention's effect】
Vegetables can be kept fresh in the refrigerator.
[0014]
Since the vegetable storage container expands and contracts, it can accommodate various sizes of vegetables, and the space in the refrigerator can be used effectively.
[0015]
It is easy to store vegetables in the vegetable storage container and take out vegetables from the vegetable storage container.
