  The lunch box according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a container 100 having a container main body 110 and a container lid 120 that closes the container main body 110, and a water bottle 200 that can store a liquid. Is fitted into a recess 122 formed on the upper surface 121 of the container lid 120.

  The container 100 and the water bottle 200 constituting the lunch box are formed from a synthetic resin such as polypropylene, for example.

  First, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the water bottle 200 includes a water bottle main body 210 that stores a liquid and a cap 220 that closes a spout 211 provided in the water bottle main body 210. The water bottle body 210 is formed in the shape of a concrete object such as a doll as shown in FIGS. The surface 212 of the water bottle main body 210 is provided with irregularities 213 corresponding to the eyes and nose of the doll. Further, unlike the surface portion 212, the bottom surface portion 214 of the water bottle main body 210, that is, the portion corresponding to the back portion of the doll is formed flat. Further, the side surface portion 215 of the water bottle main body 210, that is, the portion corresponding to the side portion of the doll is raised straight from the bottom surface portion 214 in a direction substantially perpendicular to the bottom surface portion 214.

  On the other hand, a cylindrical spout 211 is connected to a portion corresponding to the top of the doll. A spiral convex vein 216 for screwing the cap 220 is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the spout 211.

  The cap 220 is formed in a bottomed cylindrical shape, and a spiral groove (not shown) corresponding to the convex vein 216 is formed on the inner side surface of the side surface. The cap 220 is attached to the spout 211 by the spiral groove and the convex pulse 216. The cap 220 can also be formed in the shape of a doll hat that forms the water bottle main body 210.

  On the other hand, the container body 110 constituting the container 100 is formed in a deep dish shape having an open upper surface that is substantially oval in plan view, as shown in FIG. A flange portion 112 projects from the side surface 111 of the container body 110 along the upper edge portion. The flange portion 112 is a portion that comes into contact with the lower edge portion 124 (see FIG. 4) of the container lid body 120 when the container lid body 120 described later is put on the container body 110.

  Furthermore, a partition wall 113 is fixedly formed inside the container body 100. This partition wall 113 is used as a wall for partitioning cooked rice and side dishes inside the lunch box. Further, the height of the partition wall 113 is lower than the upper edge portion of the container main body 110, and is set to, for example, about half the depth of the container main body 110. Note that the height of the partition wall 113 is desirably in the range of 40% to 80% of the depth of the container body 110 in consideration of various side dishes.

  Here, the reason why the height of the partition wall 113 is set lower than the upper edge of the container main body 110 is that the side dishes can be seen beautifully. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, when serving shrimp fries 500 (see FIG. 6A), cherries 550 (see FIG. 6B), etc. as side dishes, the tail 510 side of the shrimp fries 500 and the cherries 550 If the stem 560 side is placed on the partition wall 113, it can be seen beautifully because it is three-dimensionally arranged. Moreover, even if the container body 110 is closed with the container lid 120, the back of the container lid 120 does not press the shrimp fly 500 or the cherry 550, so that the beauty of the arrangement can be maintained.

  On the other hand, the container lid 120 is formed in an inverted deep dish shape having a substantially oval bottom surface in plan view. A recess 122 corresponding to the water bottle 200 is formed on the upper surface 121 of the container lid 120. That is, the upper surface 121 of the container body 110 is recessed in a shape corresponding to the outer shape of the water bottle 200. Accordingly, the water bottle 200 can be fitted into the recess 122 so that the water bottle 200 does not come off at least in the lateral direction.

  Further, the concave portion 122 is formed with a concave portion 123 for small articles which is further recessed, that is, further lowered. The accessory recess 123 is a part for storing accessories necessary for a meal such as a fork, spoon, knife, or chopstick. The accessory recess 123 is formed according to the shape and size of the accessory to be stored, and is elongated in the case of the present embodiment storing the fork 300 (shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 4A). Is formed.

  The container body 110 containing the cooked rice and side dishes is closed with the container lid 120. And the fork 300 is accommodated in the recessed part 123 for small articles, and the water bottle 200 filled with the drink is further inserted in the recessed part 122. In this state, the small article recess 123 is covered with the water bottle 200, so that the fork 300 housed in the small article recess 123 is not lost and is hygienic.

  Further, in this state, the container lid 120 is pressed down by the weight of the water bottle 200 filled with beverages, so that it cannot be removed carelessly. Further, since the water bottle 200 is also fitted in the recess 122, it cannot be removed carelessly. In order to make it more complete, an appropriate fixing means such as a stretchable ring-shaped band such as rubber (not shown) may be used.

  In the lunch box according to the above-described embodiment, the water bottle 200 is formed in the shape of a doll. However, other concrete objects such as an animal shape, a flower or plant shape, a vehicle shape, a story or an animation are used. It can be shaped into a shape that attracts children's interests, such as character shapes.

  Further, the shape of the lunch box itself is not limited to a substantially oval shape, but may be other shapes or shapes of concrete objects. In this case, if the lunch box itself is in the form of a concrete object, it is desirable that the water bottle 200 has a related shape. For example, if the lunch box itself is shaped like a flower, the water bottle is shaped like a bee that is attracted to the flower.

  Further, in the accessory recess 123, it is possible to store not only accessories necessary for meals such as forks, spoons, knives or chopsticks but also seasoning containers for containing seasonings such as soy sauce and sauce. . In that case, a conical seasoning recess may be formed deeper after the portion for storing the fork or the like.
