  As described above, the packaged rice lump of Patent Document 1 has a step of dividing the outer film by the severable portion, a step of pulling out one half of the outer film and the film piece of the inner film, and the other when unwrapping the package. Three steps of pulling out the half of the outer film and the film piece of the inner film are required.

  In particular, children and the elderly have difficulty in performing the above three steps in order and smoothly, and there is a demand for a packaged rice cake that can be unpacked more easily.

  Moreover, after the packaging rice lump of Patent Document 1 is unpacked, the packaging sheet becomes a plurality of garbage. That is, the separable portion, the two outer film halves divided into the left and right, and the inner film become separated. In particular, since the severable part is removed as a narrow film at the time of unpacking, there is a problem that it is easily scattered.

  The present invention clarifies a packaged rice lump that can unpack the rice lump by a simpler method and a method for unpacking the packaged rice lump.

The packaged rice lump of the present invention is

It is a perspective view of the packaged rice lump which packaged the lump of rice in a bag shape using the packaging sheet of the present invention.

The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the packaging sheet (1) includes a rectangular and transparent outer film (2) and a film piece (about half the length of the long side in the longitudinal direction of the outer film (2)). 31) A substantially rectangular sheet food (4) is sandwiched between the inner film (3) made of (31) and (31).

  In this embodiment, the outer film (2) is a vertically long film having a length in the longitudinal direction of about 26 cm and a length in the width direction of about 14 cm. In the drawing, one end in the longitudinal direction of the outer film (2) is chamfered.

The outer film (2) is provided with a split portion (21) (so-called “perforated cut”) in which a large number of cuts (24) with a predetermined interval are formed in the center in the longitudinal direction across the width direction. Yes.
By applying a force in a direction substantially perpendicular to the tear portion (21), the outer film (2) can be divided along the tear portion (21).

  A narrow cover film piece (23) is attached to the inside of the outer film (2) along the notch (24) of the tear portion (21). The cover film piece (23) has a width of about 1.5 mm and is welded (17) to the outer film (2) along one side in the longitudinal direction along the tear portion (21). Cover from the inside and prevent moisture and other intrusions from the cut (24) into the packaging sheet (1).

The inner film (3) is composed of two film pieces (31) and (31), and the inner edges of each other are overlapped on the tearing part (21) of the outer film (2) with an overlap width of about 1 cm. Yes.
In this embodiment, each film piece (31) (31) is about 12.5 cm in the longitudinal direction of the outer film (2), and the width direction is about 14 cm which is the same as the outer film (2). (31) is chamfered to match the outer film (2).

  As the inner film (3), it is desirable to use a film made of a material to which rice grains do not easily adhere. For example, as the inner film (3) (film pieces (31) and (31)), an embossed film in which concave portions and convex portions are uniformly distributed can be used. By using the embossed film, it is possible to improve the detachability from the rod-shaped rice cake (6), and it is possible to prevent the rice grains from adhering to the inner film (3) and the like.

  The sheet-like food (4) is a sheet-like seaweed in the examples. The sheet-like food (4) is not particularly limited as long as it is a thin food such as those obtained by forming a rag kombu into a sheet, or a thinly stretched koji.

It is desirable that the sheet-like food (4) has a slightly smaller size than the conventional food. As a result, as described later, when the lump (6) falls from the packaging sheet (1), the sheet-like food (4) is smoothly sandwiched between the outer film (2) and the inner film (3). The sheet-like food (4) can be taken out together with the rice cake (6).
In the illustrated embodiment, the sheet-like food (4) has a length of about 15 cm in the longitudinal direction and a length of about 7 cm in the width direction.

  The sheet-like food (4) can be of a substantially rectangular shape, but as shown in the figure, a rectangular shape with a chamfered corner or a shape with a rounded chamfered end in the longitudinal direction is used. By using a thing, as will be described later, the rice cake (6) can be easily dropped from the packaging sheet (1).

  As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the sheet-like food (4) is placed in the approximate center of the outer film (2), and from there, the film pieces (31) and (31) constituting the inner film (3) ) Is placed so that it is slightly overlapped at the tearing part (21), and the outer film (2) and the inner film (3) are linearly arranged along the periphery of the outer film (2) so as to surround the sheet-like food (4). The packaging sheet (1) is formed by welding (11) and (11). No welding is performed on the overlapping portions of the film pieces (31) and (31).

  It should be noted that it is preferable that the welds (11) and (11) at the peripheral edges of the inner film (3) and the outer film (2) are provided with a slight distance from the tear portion (21). Thereby, taking out of the rice lump (6) can be performed smoothly. In the illustrated embodiment, an interval of about 5 cm is left from the center side end portion of the welds (11) and (11) to the tear portion (21).

  In addition, it is desirable to prevent welding of the sheet-like food (4) by applying welding (12) to one end or the vicinity of both ends in the longitudinal direction of the sheet-like food (4).

The lump (6) is packaged on the packaging sheet (1) having the above-described configuration.
As shown in FIG. 3, the rice lump (6) packaged in the packaging sheet (1) is a lump that is flattened by white rice or rice cake. Preferably, both side surfaces are substantially parallel, and the both side surfaces are connected to each other by a planar or curved peripheral surface.
The rice lump (6) may be partially or entirely sprinkled with sprinkled food such as sesame, placed with ingredients, or sandwiched with ingredients.

  The illustrated rice cake (6) is a triangular rice ball having a height of about 7 cm and a width of about 3 cm, but can also be a round rice ball or a rectangular rice ball. In order to make the rice lump (6) slide well from the inner film (3) and drop it, the sides and corners of the rice lump (6) are preferably chamfered. The chamfering can be exemplified by round chamfering. R is preferably 5 mm or more, and more preferably approximately 8 mm.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the rice cake (6) having the above configuration is placed on a packaging sheet (1) with the inner film (3) side facing upward. In the case of a triangular rice ball, the rice lump (6) is placed so that one of its peripheral surfaces (referred to as the bottom surface) faces the tear portion (21) when the packaging sheet (1) is folded.

  Note that the packaging sheet (1) may be folded in advance in a U shape with the tearing portion (21) in between, and the mass of rice (6) may be sandwiched.
