Description

  The present invention relates to a tableware bowl for storing a plurality of tableware in a state where a relatively large amount of tableware, such as dishes, bowls, trays, etc., is used, particularly in school, hospital, etc. Is.

  As for the dishwashing method, multiple used dishes are arranged and stored in the tableware, and there is a margin in the alignment of the tableware in the stacking direction. In the past, methods for washing dishes have been used. In this method, the tableware is sequentially separated from each other by jetting of cleaning water for cleaning, and therefore the number of the tableware stored in the tableware bowl is predetermined. Therefore, if the number of tableware stored in the tableware bowl is larger than the set number, the tableware cannot be separated by jetting of washing water. Therefore, there is a problem that it becomes difficult to separate the tableware and the tableware cannot be washed cleanly.

Therefore, in Patent Document 1, when the tableware is sequentially stacked in the height direction, the tableware when the tableware is stored with respect to the upper portions of the four support members that regulate the outer edges of the tableware provided in the tableware bowl is shown. In order to make the height and the empty space of the storage bowl constant, a tableware position adjusting member is attached.
Similarly, in Patent Document 2, the alignment length of tableware covers the upper part of the stacked tableware with respect to two support members among the four support members that regulate the outer edge of the tableware provided in the tableware bowl. There is disclosed a tableware bowl in which an alignment length support member for regulating the height is attached to make the height of the tableware and the empty space of the storage bowl constant when the tableware is stored.

  However, in the tableware bowl of Patent Document 1, when the number of tableware stored in the tableware bowl is changed, the four tableware position adjusting members must be adjusted according to the number of tableware stored, and the tableware position Since the adjusting member is in the vicinity of the slot for loading tableware, there is a problem that the tableware position adjusting member becomes an obstacle when storing the tableware.

On the other hand, the tableware bowl of Patent Document 2 is also cumbersome because the attachment position of the alignment length support member has to be adjusted in accordance with the number of tableware stored in the same manner as Patent Document 1.
Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention stacks from above in a simple manner without disturbing the storage of tableware even if the number of tableware stored in the tableware is changed. It provides a tableware bowl that can change the position of the tableware bottom plate that holds the lower part of the tableware to be stored, and that can keep the distance between the upper frame of the tableware and the top of the tableware stored stacked. is there.

    The present invention is stored in a tableware bowl in which a plurality of tableware are stacked and stored, and the cleaning direction is set to be a horizontal direction and the cleaning water is sprayed from above, thereby cleaning the tableware by separating the tableware by spraying the cleaning water. When the stacking direction of the tableware is the vertical direction, it is located at the upper end and the lower end, and has a generally rectangular shape in a plan view made of a wire material that regulates the outer shell of the tableware whose one side is larger than the outer shape of the tableware And a tableware support unit configured by connecting the upper frame and the lower frame, and a wire rod that supports the outer edges of the tableware to be stacked and stored at least at three points. A tableware bottom plate for supporting tableware located at the bottom of the tableware, a connecting wire connecting the upper frame and the lower frame on the left and right side surfaces of the tableware, provided in the vicinity of the lower frame of the connecting wire, Tableware And a receiving plate that supports the plate, and the upper frame is partly formed so that one side, which is the front surface of the tableware bowl among the four sides, forms a space for taking in and out tableware with respect to the upper surface and the front surface The tableware bottom plate is opened, and both ends of the tableware plate are locked to the receiving plate, respectively, and the tableware bowl can be changed according to the number of tableware to be stored.

This makes it possible to change the position of the bottom plate that holds the tableware at the bottom of the tableware stacked and stored from above, so even if the number of tableware stored in the tableware changes, The distance between the upper frame and the top of the tableware stored in a stacked manner can be kept constant.
The tableware bottom plate has protrusions at both ends thereof, the receiving plate has a plurality of holes for changing the position of the tableware bottom plate, and the tableware bottom plate has the protrusions in the holes. It is desirable to be able to change the position of the tableware bottom plate by changing the position of the hole into which the protrusion is inserted and locked.

Thereby, the change of the tableware height from the upper frame of the tableware stacked and accommodated from the top can be performed simply and easily only by changing the insertion positions of the protrusions at both ends of the receiving plate.
Moreover, it is desirable that the plurality of holes have a set interval in the stacking direction of the tableware according to the height per tableware stored.
Thereby, the position of the tableware bottom plate can be changed according to the number of tableware stored.

  In order to wash and separate each tableware by spraying washing water with a dishwasher, a predetermined space is required between the upper frame of the tableware bowl and the uppermost portion of the tableware stored from above. However, even if the number of tableware stored in the tableware bowl is changed, the position of the tableware bottom plate can be changed by a simple procedure according to the present invention. Dishwashing is possible.

Further, in the first embodiment, it is configured by a circular wire using a stainless material or the like, but may be configured by a plate-like member, and is not limited to the configuration of the first embodiment. The tableware bowl 1 is provided with a resin coating on the entire surface of the tableware bowl in order to prevent the metal mark from being attached to the tableware.

By the way, the tableware bowl 1 mounted on the work table or the like in the stacking direction in the vertical direction (vertical direction) has the upper frame 11 side as the upper surface, the lower frame 12 facing the upper frame 11 as the bottom surface, and the integrated tableware support portions 13 and 14. The side is configured as a front surface, and the separate tableware support portions 3 and 4 are configured as a back surface.
As shown in FIG. 1, the tableware bowl 1 has a tableware opening / closing opening 19 on the upper surface side where the upper frame 11 is located, and a front surface opening 20 on the front side where the integrated tableware support portions 13 and 14 are located. The plurality of tableware 100 are stored and taken out through the tableware opening / closing opening 19. The tableware opening / closing opening 19 and the front opening 20 of the tableware bowl 1 communicate with each other to form a tableware outlet.

  More specifically, the upper surface side of the tableware bowl 1 having the tableware opening / closing opening 19 is the storage and removal direction of the tableware 100. The space surrounded by the integrated tableware support units 13 and 14, the separate tableware support units 3 and 4, and the lower regulation unit 5 constitutes a tableware storage unit 21 for storing a plurality of tableware 100.

  In addition, in FIG. 3, the integrated tableware support parts 13 and 14 which support the peripheral edge part of the half circumference side of one side (the outer surface 1a side which is the front side of the tableware bowl 1) of the round-shaped tableware 100 piled up several times, An example of the arrangement of separate tableware support portions 3 and 4 that support the peripheral edge of the other half of the tableware 100 (the outer surface 1b side that is the back side of the tableware bowl 1) is shown. Each of the integrated tableware support portions 13 and 14 supports the peripheral end portion on one half circumference side at angles of θ1 and θ2 across the center of the tableware 100. Further, each of the separate tableware support portions 3 and 4 supports the other half-circumferential side end portion with angles θ3 and θ4 across the center of the tableware 100. Each of θ1 to θ4 is set to 10 to 45 degrees, for example.

Furthermore, the integrated tableware support parts 13 and 14 located inside the tableware bowl 1 from the outer surface 1a, and the separate tableware support part 3 located inside the tableware bowl 1 from the outer surface 1b, 4 is arranged so that the tableware 100 stored in the tableware storage unit 21 does not protrude from the outer surface 1a, the outer surface 1b, the outer surface 1c, and the outer surface 1d.

In either case, the tableware 100 stored in the tableware storage unit 21 is arranged so as not to protrude from the outer surface 1a, the outer surface 1b, the outer surface 1c, and the outer surface 1d.

(About the production method of tableware bowl 1)
The procedure of the method for creating the tableware bowl 1 is shown in FIGS. 4 (a) to 4 (c) and FIGS. 5 (a) to 5 (b). First, as shown in FIG. 4A, one wire is bent to form an outer frame wire 71 in a U-shape. Next, from the state of FIG. 4A, as shown in FIG. 4B, the U-shaped outer frame wire 71 is bent upward at an angle of approximately 90 ° by two bending portions 73. For example, regarding bending of a wire, two bending portions 73 can be simultaneously bent by a bending machine which is a bending device. Here, two bending portions are bent at the same time on the bending machine, but the bending portions may be bent one by one. Further, it may be bent by a method other than the bending machine, and is not limited to the configuration of the embodiment.

  FIG. 4C shows a state where the outer frame wire 71 in the state of FIG. 4B is bent upward at an angle of approximately 90 ° by two bending portions 74. 5A, the outer frame wire 71 in the state of FIG. 4C is further bent upward at an angle of about 90 ° by two bending portions 75, and the reverse direction is performed in the same manner as the previous procedure. It is the state which arranged the substantially symmetrical bent wire material facing each other. That is, in FIG. 4A to FIG. 4C and FIG. 5A, the outer frame wire 71 having one symmetrical shape is formed, and the outer frame wire 72 having the other symmetrical shape is the same as the outer frame wire 71. It is formed by bending. The outer frame wire 71 and the outer frame wire 72 each have a substantially symmetrical shape formed by one wire (in a single stroke).

5B shows an end surface 76 of the outer frame wire 71 and an end surface 78 of the outer frame wire 72, and an end surface 77 of the outer frame wire 71 and the outer frame wire arranged in a substantially symmetrical shape shown in FIG. 72 shows a state in which the outer frame 2 is formed by joining the end surfaces 79 of 72 to each other by welding. In addition, what combined the end surface of the outer frame wire 71 and the end surface of the outer frame wire 72 is the coupling | bond part 80,81.
In addition, the length of one wire that is bent into a U-shape in FIG. 4A is appropriately set according to the size and type of tableware stored in the tableware and the desired size of the tableware. Is. The positions and bending angles of the bending portion 73, the bending portion 74, and the bending portion 75 are appropriately set according to the size and type of tableware stored in the tableware and the desired size of the tableware. It is.

  As described above, the outer frame 2 has the substantially symmetric outer frame wires 71 and 72 formed in a one-stroke shape by bending one U-shaped wire, and arranged in a substantially symmetric shape. The end surface 76 and the end surface 78 of the outer frame wire 72 are formed by joining the end surface 77 of the outer frame wire 71 and the end surface 79 of the outer frame wire 72 by welding.

  Moreover, the wire part which connects the upper surface and lower surface of the tableware bowl 1 in which the front opening part 20 was formed by the U-shaped wire 71 serves as the tableware support parts 13 and 14, and the apex of the bent wire rod is the tableware bowl. The tableware bowl 1 is created by forming the outline of 1 respectively.

  Thereby, the outer frame 2 can form the tableware bowl 1 only by welding two places of the end surfaces of an outer frame wire, and reducing a welding location. Therefore, when the tableware bowl 1 is formed, the number of jigs can be reduced when positioning at the time of welding the wire end faces is performed by jigs. Even when the jig is not used, positioning defects can be reduced because there are few joints. Moreover, since there are few parts to weld, the part which produces the distortion at the time of welding will reduce, and the correction | amendment operation | work of the distortion used as a product defect can also be reduced. Thus, since the tableware bowl 1 is made with a simple structure, the tableware bowl 1 can be manufactured efficiently.

  Furthermore, since the number of welded portions can be reduced, it is possible to reduce the occurrence of welding failure and to provide a stable product with high customer reliability. Also, the substantially symmetric outer frame wire 71 and the outer frame wire 72 formed in a single stroke shape constituting the outer frame 2 are separately formed, so that FIGS. 4 (a) to 4 (c), FIG. When bending as shown in FIGS. 5 (a) to 5 (b), the outer frame wire becomes smaller compared to the case where the entire outer frame is bent integrally, and it is easier to handle at the time of bending. Occupied space is also reduced. Therefore, the bending workability at the time of creating the tableware bowl 1 is improved, and the processing efficiency can be improved.

  In addition, when the entire outer frame is bent integrally, there is no place to release twists and twists originally possessed by the wire material, and a part of the outer frame is formed when the outer frame 2 is formed by bending. There is a risk of distortion. In this case, since the bending is performed integrally, there is no place to escape, so that distortion correction becomes difficult. On the other hand, when the two end surfaces are welded to each other by bending them substantially symmetrically as in the first embodiment, distortion can be corrected at the end surface portions, so that an outer frame without distortion is formed. be able to.

  Further, bending can be performed using a bending machine which is a general apparatus in bending. That is, the tableware making method according to the first embodiment is a method for forming the outer frame without using a special device, and is a versatile and highly flexible manufacturing method, which efficiently produces a tableware bowl. Can do. Furthermore, the tableware bowl 1 has a simplified configuration because it only needs to be configured by connecting and fixing the lower regulating portion 5 and the separate tableware support portions 3 and 4 to the outer frame 2 by welding or the like. In addition, the tableware needs only to be substantially symmetrical in the front view when the tableware is viewed from the front, and there is no problem in creating the tableware even if it is not strictly symmetrical. “Symmetrical symmetry” includes slight differences in dimensions and shape. In addition, since the tableware can be efficiently manufactured in this way, it is possible to provide a tableware with reduced price increase.

  The tableware 100 after eating stored in the tableware bowl 1 is taken out from the tableware bowl 1 and the tableware 100 is washed by the tableware washing apparatus. The tableware bowl 1 from which the tableware 100 has been taken out is also cleaned by a tableware cleaning device or another cleaning device. After the cleaning, the tableware 100 taken out from the dishwasher is stored again in the tableware bowl 1 which has been cleaned again. Also at this time, the tableware opening / closing opening 19 is configured to communicate with the front surface opening 20, so that the tableware 100 can be stored easily and quickly. Thereafter, the tableware bowl 1 storing the tableware 100 is sterilized and dried by hot air in a sterilization storage, and stored in a tableware storage or the like.

  In the posture of the tableware bowl 1 shown in FIG. 1, the tableware bowl 1 containing the tableware 100 is transported by a cart or a truck, and vibrations and impacts are applied to the tableware 100 housed in the tableware bowl 1 during this transportation. However, the plurality of tableware 100 stored in the tableware bowl 1 is composed of a tableware storage unit configured by a space surrounded by the integrated tableware support units 13 and 14, separate tableware support units 3 and 4, and the lower regulation unit 5. 21, the tableware 100 can be maintained in a stable posture in the tableware storage unit 21. As a result, it is possible to prevent the tableware 100 from jumping out or falling off from the tableware bowl 1.

  Moreover, since the resin coating is given to the whole surface of the tableware bowl 1 so that a metal mark may not adhere to the tableware 100, it not only prevents the metal mark from being attached, but also softens the impact with the tableware 100 and the like. There are advantages such as less harsh noise generation. Furthermore, since the entire surface of the tableware bowl 1 is coated with resin, scratches on the tableware bowl 1 generated when carrying a cart or truck, or the tableware bowl 1 generated on a table serving the tableware table during eating Scratches can also be prevented.

  When the resin coating is peeled off, it can be reprocessed. For example, in school lunches, it may be reprocessed during a long vacation such as summer vacation. Alternatively, a spare tableware 1 may be prepared, replaced with a tableware from which the resin coating has been peeled off, and reworked by rotating in turn.

  In Embodiment 1, the resin coating applied to the entire surface of the tableware bowl 1 is, for example, a resin coating of nylon (registered trademark) so that the metal mark does not adhere to the tableware. However, the resin used is not limited to this.

(About the operation to take out the tableware 100 from the tableware bowl)
The tableware 100 before eating is taken out from the tableware bowl 1 that has been transported through processes such as cleaning, disinfection drying, storage, etc., as shown in FIG.
In this state, the total number of the plurality of stacked tablewares 100 is grasped by hand through the front opening 20 and taken out from the tableware opening / closing opening 19 at a time. Alternatively, one piece or a plurality of pieces are sequentially taken out from the upper end side of the plurality of stacked dishes 100. The taken out tableware 100 is sequentially used for eating. As described above, the tableware 100 can be taken out smoothly because a plurality of tablewares 100 are inserted through the front opening 20 and taken out from the tableware opening / closing opening 19 through the front opening 20. Thereafter, the tableware bowl containing the plurality of tableware 100 used for eating repeats the cycle of washing, disinfecting drying and storage as described above.

  In addition, the method for bending the single U-shaped wire rod to form the outer frame wire rods 71 and 72 is only required to be a substantially symmetrical shape in which the outer frame wire rods 71 and 72 are formed in a one-stroke shape. It is not limited. Further, in the first embodiment, the lower restricting portion 5 is configured by the lower restricting rods 17 and 18, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the lower restricting portion 5 is integrated with the outer frame with a single stroke. Also good. As a result, the number of parts can be further reduced, which can be simplified and can be manufactured efficiently.

  In the first embodiment, the entire surface of the tableware bowl 1 is coated with resin. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the place where the tableware comes into contact with the tableware storage unit 21, for example, the integrated tableware support units 13 and 14 is used. Only the lower regulation bars 17 and 18 of the separate tableware support parts 3 and 4 and the lower regulation part 5 may be resin-coated.

  In this case, it is impossible to prevent the tableware bowl 1 from being scratched when the tableware bowl 1 is transported by a truck, a truck or the like as described above, but the resin coating of the tableware bowl 1 is prevented from peeling off. it can. Whether to apply the resin coating to the entire surface of the tableware bowl 1 or to apply the resin coating only to the place where the tableware comes into contact with the tableware storage unit 21 may be selected depending on the situation of use.

  Further, since the resin coating can freely select a color, there is an advantage that a specific color can be adopted according to the use or preference. For example, the color can be selected in units of school classes, or the color can be selected according to the type of tableware stored. Thereby, it is possible to prevent mistakes in taking the tableware in school lunches, or to prevent mistakes when the tableware is returned to the tableware after eating.

  In the present embodiment, the entire surface of the tableware bowl is coated with a resin so that the metal mark does not adhere to the tableware 100. However, the present invention is not limited to this. What is necessary is just to prevent the stainless steel etc. which are present from contacting directly. For example, in FIG. 4A, a nylon tube may be inserted into a portion corresponding to the integral support portion of the outer frame wire.

(About the Upper Regulatory Department)
The upper restricting portion will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 15 to 18. FIG. 15 is a plan view when the tableware bowl 101 of FIG. 9 is viewed from above (a state where the locking portion of the upper restricting portion is removed). The upper restricting portion 150 is rotatably attached by two turning supports 152 fixed to the upper frame 11 above the tableware bowl 101. The restriction portion 150 a of the upper restriction portion 150 is configured to restrict the surface side of the stacked tableware 100 with the tableware opening / closing opening 19 on the outer surface 101 e that is the upper surface of the upper frame 11.

  The upper restricting portion locking portion 151 a which is a rotation free end portion of the upper restricting portion 150 is configured to be engaged with the middle bent portion 11 a of the upper frame 11. In addition, the locking portion 151 b that is a rotation free end portion of the upper restricting portion is configured to be locked to the middle bent portion 11 b of the upper frame 11. In a state where the locking portion of the upper restricting portion is not locked to the bent portion, the interval between the locking portions 151a and 151b of the upper restricting portion is configured to be narrower than the interval between the bent portions 11a and 11b. Yes.

  FIG. 16, FIG. 17, and FIG. 16A is a plan view of the upper restricting portion 150 in FIG. 15, and FIG. 16B is a side view of the upper restricting portion 150. FIG. 17A is a plan view of the rotation support 152 in FIG. 15, and FIG. 17B is a side view of the rotation support 152. As shown in FIG. 18A to 18C are partial enlarged cross-sectional views showing a state in which the upper restricting portion 150 rotates as viewed from the BB position shown in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 16, the upper restricting portion 150 is formed in a substantially U shape as a whole by a wire having a restoring property and a flexibility. The two substantially U-shaped facing wires form a restricting portion 150a. The substantially U-shaped tip portions are bent outward, and then the tip portion is further bent upward to form the locking portions 151a and 151b of the upper restricting portion.

  As shown in FIG. 18A, the upper restricting portion 150 includes a support portion that can be freely rotated on a rotation support tool 152 fixed to the upper frame 11. Further, as shown in FIG. 15, the rotation support tool 152 is fixed to the upper frame 11 with the inner side of the tableware bowl 101 facing.

  As shown in FIG. 18, the upper restricting portion 150 is rotatably attached by a rotation support tool 152, but it can be rotated depending on the positional relationship among the upper frame 11, the rotation support tool 152, and the upper restriction portion 150. The range of movement is restricted. It can rotate freely in the range from the state shown in FIG. 18C to the state shown in FIG.

  First, when the tableware is put into the tableware bowl 101, as shown in FIG. 18A, the upper restricting portion 150 is accommodated inside the outer surface so as not to obstruct the insertion of the tableware, and the upper restricting portion locking portion 151a. , 151b can be moved downward until it comes into contact with the upper frame 11. In this state, the lengths of the locking portions 151a and 151b of the upper restricting portion are configured so that the upper restricting portion 150 does not fall out of the rotation support tool 152. The upper restricting portion 150 is also detachable from the rotation support tool 152.

  Next, the upper restricting portion 150 can be moved upward from the state of FIG. 18A to the state of FIG. 18B. In the state of FIG. 18B, the lower part of the upper restricting part 150 is placed on the turning support 152 and the upper face of the upper restricting part 150 is placed on the upper frame so as to be sandwiched between the upper frame 11 and the turning support 152. 11 is in a state of being in contact with 11. The upper restricting portion 150 shows a state in which the upper restricting portion 152 is inclined to the outside of the outer surface 101b of the tableware bowl beyond the vertical direction of the rotary support 152. In this operation, it is not necessary to rotate the upper restricting portion 150 beyond the vertical direction, and the upper restricting portion 150 may be lifted in the vertical direction until it abuts against the rotation support member 152.

(About the adjustment method of tableware position)
A method for adjusting the tableware position will be described with reference to FIGS. 11, 21, and 22. First, from the state in which the bottom plate fixture 138 of FIG. 11 is fixed, a force is applied to the bottom plate fixture 138 in the direction of arrow G as shown in FIG. It is removed from the locking member protrusion 137b. Then, as shown in FIG.21 (b), the baseplate fixing tool 138 can be pulled out in this direction. FIG. 22A shows a state where the bottom plate fixture 138 is removed. In this state, the tableware bottom plate 131 can be removed in the front direction. Moreover, FIG.22 (b) has shown the state which removed the tableware bottom plate 131 from the tableware bowl.

  The tableware bottom plate 131 can be attached in the reverse order of the above-described removal method. At this time, for example, the position of the bottom plate fixture 138 in FIG. 14C is changed to the position of the bottom plate fixture 138 in FIG. The number of stored pieces can be adjusted by inserting into the different through holes of the fixture receiving plates 140 and 141 and locking the bottom plate fixture 138. The locking method is not limited to the embodiment.

  Moreover, the structure of another tableware position adjustment part is demonstrated using FIGS. 35-37. FIG. 35 is a view of the tableware bottom plate as viewed from the back side. First, the bottom plate fixture 198 will be described. As shown in FIG. 37, the bottom plate fixture 198 is formed in a substantially U-shape made of a U-shaped wire material constituting the front ends 138a and 138b of the fixture at both ends and an elastic wire having a smaller diameter. Thus, both ends are bent outward and the wire constituting the fixture locking portion 198a is fixed by welding or the like. The diameter of the wire portion is thin when the fixture locking portion 198a is inserted into and removed from the locking receiving portion 196a, and the grip portion 198b is gripped by hand and bent so that the grip portions 198b approach each other against elasticity. It is necessary. In this configuration example, the thick U-shaped wire constituting 138a and 138b is φ4 mm, and the thin wire is φ2.5 mm.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 36, one end of the locking receiving portion wire 196 constitutes a protrusion 136a and a protrusion 136b, and is bent round in the middle on the other end side in order to insert the fixture locking portion 198a. Thus, a latch receiving portion 196a is formed. Two locking receiving portion wires 196 are fixed to the connecting wire 196b by welding. In order to align the directions of the two latch receiving portions 196a, the two latch receiving portion wire 196 and the connecting wire 196b are first fixed by welding. Thereafter, a through hole is made in the folded portion 135b, and the position is determined and fixed to the tableware bottom plate 131 by welding through the protrusion 136a and the protrusion 136b.

  Next, the position adjustment of the tableware bottom plate will be described. FIG. 35 shows a state where the bottom plate fixture 198 is locked. In this state, since the fixture locking portion 198a is inserted into the lock receiving portion 196a, it cannot be moved to the left side in the figure, which is the direction in which the bottom plate fixture 198 is removed. From this state, when the gripping portions 198b are grasped by hand so as to approach each other, the fixture locking portion 198a comes out of the locking receiving portion 196a. If the bottom plate fixture 198 is moved to the left in the figure as it is, the bottom plate fixture 198 can be removed from the holding portion 197a of the locking member 197, and the position of the tableware bottom plate 131 in the stacking direction can be adjusted. .

(About tableware storage)
