In the foaming device (Patent Documents 4 to 6) provided with stirring blades in the container, the device disclosed in Patent Document 4 is such that the foaming container (3) is fixed to the casing (1) of the cooking machine. There is a problem that cannot be removed and used freely. Moreover, the rotating shaft (16) protrudes from the bottom of the foaming container (3), and the rotating shaft (16) becomes an obstacle when taking out the foam accumulated in the foaming container (3). Moreover, foaming is performed only by the relationship between the fixed blade (9) and the rotary blade (17), which is disposed in the center of the foam container (3), and the efficiency of foaming is not good.
Also in the case of the apparatus shown in Patent Document 5, the foaming chamber (3) is incorporated as a part of the apparatus, and there is a problem that it cannot be freely removed and used. Moreover, since the foaming means (8) is fixedly disposed in the foaming chamber (3), there is a problem that the bubbles accumulated in the foaming chamber (3) cannot be easily taken out by hand. In addition, regarding the paddle (10) disposed in the foaming chamber (3), the relative positional relationship with the internal shape of the foaming chamber (3) is not particularly disclosed, and good foaming is expected. It is not a thing.
In the apparatus shown in Patent Document 6, the cup (10) can be freely removed, but the stirring body (20) and the rotating shaft (14) remain in the cup (10), and the cup (10) remains in the cup (10). It is difficult to remove the bubbles with your hands. Moreover, it cannot be said that a stirring body (20) consists of a horizontal disk (21) and the cyclic | annular rib (22) provided in the upper surface, and foaming can be performed efficiently enough.

  Therefore, the present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, the container used for foaming is not fixed as a part of the apparatus, can be freely carried and used as a container, and stirring means used for foaming in the container However, instead of being fixedly placed in the container, it can be easily removed from the container together with the lid, so that the foam obtained in the container can be easily handled without obstruction and set in the container. An object of the present invention is to provide a foaming container capable of foaming a foaming liquid such as soapy water very efficiently in a short time.

In order to achieve the above object, a foaming container according to the present invention is a foaming container having a container body, a lid body detachably attached to the container body, and a stirring blade body rotatably provided on the lid body. The stirring blade body includes a bottom blade portion formed of a flat belt-like body and side blade portions that continuously rise from both ends thereof, and when the lid body is attached to the container body, the bottom blade portion and The side blades are arranged with a certain narrow gap along the inner bottom surface and the inner side surface of the container main body, and the band surfaces of the strips of the bottom blade portion and the side blade portions are the inner bottom surfaces of the container main body. The first feature is that the configuration is perpendicular to the inner surface.
Further, in addition to the first feature, the foaming container of the present invention includes a baffle plate that obstructs the circulation of the liquid in the container body accompanying the rotation of the stirring blade body, and the bottom blade portion and the side blade portion of the stirring blade body. The second feature is that the lid body is provided so as to have a certain narrow gap along the inner side.
In addition to the second feature described above, the foaming container of the present invention has a third feature that the baffle plate is configured to rotate or rotate in the direction opposite to the rotation of the stirring blade body.
In addition to the first to third features, the foaming container of the present invention is provided with a manual rotation operation handle for manually rotating the stirring blade body on the upper surface side of the lid body. It has the characteristics of
In addition to the first to third features, the foaming container of the present invention has a fifth feature that means for automatically rotating the stirring blade body is provided on the lid.

According to the foaming container of the first aspect, the stirring blade body is provided on the lid body, and the lid body is detachably attached to the container body. Therefore, as long as the lid is removed from the container body, the stirring blade body does not occupy the space in the container body. Therefore, before attaching the lid, the container main body can fully carry out and use the original function as a container. Also, the foaming liquid can be poured into the container body easily, easily, and with the required amount accurately observed. In addition, after the foaming is completed, by removing the lid from the container main body, the stirring blade body is completely removed from the space inside the container main body, so that the foamed container main body contains bubbles as it is. It can be used as a container, and the bubbles in the container body can be easily scooped out and taken out without any obstacles.
Moreover, according to the foaming container of Claim 1, foaming of the liquid for foaming put in the container main body can be foamed very efficiently in a short time. That is, the foaming liquid placed in the bottom of the container body is centrifugally moved from the center of the bottom to the periphery by the rotation of the bottom blade made of a flat belt-like body, and along the belt surface of the side blade. It is then moved upwards, and then repeatedly inverted and dropped as if it hits the lid so as to draw an arc inward. By repeating this series of movements, the foaming liquid is agitated while entraining a large amount of air, so that the foaming progresses at once, and a sufficiently homogeneous and creamy foaming can be completed in a short time.

According to the foaming container of Claim 2, in addition to the effect by the structure of the said Claim 1, the baffle plate which disturbs the circulation of the liquid in the container main body accompanying rotation of the stirring blade body is provided with the stirring blade body. Since the lid is configured so as to have a certain narrow gap along the inside of the bottom blade portion and the side blade portion, the liquid for foaming is directed to the stirring direction (circumferential direction) by the stirring blade body. A part of the co-rotation is suddenly blocked by the baffle plate, resulting in a large turbulent state. As a result, entrainment and stirring of a larger amount of air are promoted, and high-quality foaming can be completed in a shorter time.
Of course, since the baffle plate is provided on the lid, the baffle plate can be removed from the inside of the container body by removing the lid, and the original function of the container body as a container is not impaired.

  According to the foaming container of Claim 3, in addition to the effect by the structure of the said Claim 2, a baffle plate can be easily provided by fixing a baffle plate. Further, the bubbling effect can be further improved by rotating the baffle plate in a direction opposite to the rotation of the stirring blade body.

According to the foaming container of Claim 4, in addition to the effect by the structure in any one of the said Claims 1-3, the manual rotation operation handle for manually rotating a stirring blade body is on the upper surface side of a cover body. Because it is provided, put the foaming liquid into the container body, put the lid on the container body, and then turn the manual rotation operation handle on the top side of the lid body to easily and easily foam It can be performed. In the present invention, foaming can be carried out very efficiently and in a short time, so that foaming can be carried out manually without being sufficiently simple and tired.
According to the foaming container of the fifth aspect, in addition to the function and effect of the structure of any one of the first to third aspects, the means for automatically rotating the stirring blade body is provided on the lid body. Can be easily whipped.

1 is an overall schematic view of a foaming container according to an embodiment of the present invention. It is a perspective view which shows the cover body of the foaming container which concerns on embodiment of this invention, and the stirring blade body provided in it. It is the perspective view which looked at the container main body of the foaming container which concerns on embodiment of this invention from diagonally upward. It is sectional drawing of the foaming container which concerns on embodiment of this invention.

  Hereinafter, with reference to each drawing, the foaming container which concerns on embodiment of this invention is demonstrated, and it uses for an understanding of this invention. However, the following description does not limit the present invention described in the claims.

First, with reference to FIG. 1, the foaming container which concerns on embodiment of this invention consists of the container main body 10 and the cover body 20 which adheres to this container main body 10 so that attachment or detachment is possible.
2 to 4, the lid 20 is provided with manual rotation means 30 having a manual rotation operation handle 31 and the like, a stirring blade body 40, and a baffle plate 50.

The container body 10 is a container having an inner bottom surface 10a and an inner surface 10b that rises obliquely or substantially vertically from the periphery of the inner bottom surface 10a. The liquid used for foaming is supplied into the container body 10. Further, the foamed foam is retained in the container body 10.
At the center of the inner bottom surface 10 a of the container body 10, a pivot pin 11 that pivots the rotation of the stirring blade body 40 is provided.
The container body 10 can be made of plastic. Of course, other materials can be used.

The lid body 20 includes a horizontal flange edge 20a that comes into contact with and covers the upper opening edge 10c of the container body 10, and a hanging edge 20b that fits inside the upper opening edge 10c of the container body 10. The horizontal flange edge 20a and the hanging edge 20b detachably fit on the container body 10, cover the upper opening of the container body 10 and cover it.
A manual rotation operation handle 31 is provided on the upper surface side of the lid body 20. The manual rotation operation handle 31 constitutes manual rotation means 30 for manually rotating the stirring blade body 40, and is pivotally supported on the upper surface of the rotary disk 32. The rotating disk 32 is fitted inside the circular guide 21 of the lid 20 so as to be rotatable in an inscribed state. That is, the rotary disk 32 is rotated while being guided by the circular guide 21 by holding the manual rotation operation handle 31 with a hand and rotating it.

A large-diameter internal gear 34 is provided on the back side (lower side) of the rotating disk 32 via a through shaft 33 that passes through the central shaft hole of the lid 20. That is, the internal gear 34 rotates as the rotating disk 32 rotates.
The large-diameter internal gear 34 is provided so as to mesh with a small-diameter external gear 35.
The large internal gear 34 and the small external gear 35 are covered by a gear cover 22 that is integrally formed on the back surface (lower surface) side of the lid 20.
The small-diameter external gear 35 is rotatably fitted to a fixed shaft 23 provided to hang from a part of the gear cover 22. That is, when the internal gear 34 rotates, the small-diameter external gear 35 that meshes with the internal gear 34 rotates around the fixed core 41 at a higher speed.
The manual rotation operation handle 31, the rotary disk 32, the through shaft 33, the internal gear 34, and the external gear 35 constitute a manual rotation means 30.

A part of the gear cover 22 is opened below the small-diameter external gear 35, and the stirring blade body 40 is connected to the external gear 35.
The stirring blade body 40 is connected to the external gear 35 by a connecting shaft portion 41 having a cylindrical shape so as to penetrate the fixed shaft 23 into the inner space.
The stirring blade body 40 extends inward in the horizontal direction from the bottom blade portion 42, the pair of side blade portions 43 rising from both ends thereof, and the upper ends of the pair of side blade portions 43, and is connected to the connecting shaft portion 41. The upper blade portion 44 is provided. Each blade part 42, 43, 44 has a shape like a flat belt-like body connected in a quadrilateral shape, and a space for arranging a baffle plate 50, which will be described later, is surrounded by each blade 42, 43, 44. I am trying to configure it.

The bottom blade portion 42 is configured as a flat belt-like body. When the lid 20 is attached to the container main body 10, the bottom blade portion 42 is arranged with a certain narrow gap S <b> 1 with respect to the inner bottom surface 10 a of the container main body 10. In addition, the band surface of the band-shaped body of the bottom blade portion 42 is perpendicular to the inner bottom surface 10 a of the container body 10.
The reason why the narrow gap S1 is arranged is that when the foaming liquid is put in the container body 10 at a low water level, it is actually often put in such a low water level and foamed greatly. However, this is because the bottom blade portion 42 can reach the low-level foaming liquid sufficiently and can be stirred. Therefore, the numerical value of the constant narrow gap S1 is not limited to a specific value.
Further, the reason why the belt surface of the belt-like body is perpendicular to the inner bottom surface 10a of the container main body 10 is to improve the contact with the foaming liquid contained in the container main body 10 so that it can be effectively stirred. It is to make it. Here, the “vertical direction” is not limited to strictly vertical, but includes a concept including an oblique state.

The pair of side blades 43 are also configured as flat belts that are continuous from both ends of the bottom blade 42. When the lid 20 is attached to the container main body 10, the side blades 43 are arranged with a certain narrow gap S2 with respect to the inner side surface 10b of the container main body 10. In addition, the band surface of the band-like body of the side blade portion 43 is perpendicular to the inner side surface 10 b of the container body 10. Here, the side blade portion 43 is arranged with a certain narrow gap S2 with respect to the inner side surface 10b of the container body 10, and the band surface of the band-like body is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the inner side surface 10b. This is to enable effective stirring as in the case of the bottom blade portion 42.
The reason why the bottom blade portion 42 and the side blade portion 43 are wide as belt-like bodies is to provide a good stirring effect by ensuring a contact area with the liquid. The linear effect cannot be expected so much.

  The upper blade portion 44 is also a flat belt-like body, but the arrangement position is on the upper side and the degree of contribution to foaming is small. Therefore, the upper blade portion 44 is not necessarily a flat belt-like body. The upper blade portion 44 also serves as a frame that connects the side blade portion 43 and the connecting shaft portion 41.

By the way, a pin receiving hole 42b for receiving the pivot pin 11 of the container body 10 described above is provided at the center of the lower end surface of the bottom blade portion 42. By receiving the pivot pin 11 in the pin receiving hole 42b, the stirring blade body 40 can be stably rotated.
Further, the rising shape composed of the bottom blade portion 42 and the pair of side blade portions 43 rising from both end portions thereof is similar to some extent with the rising cross-sectional shape formed by the bottom portion and the side portion of the container body 10. Is preferable.

The baffle plate 50 is a plate used to obstruct the circulation of the liquid in the container body 10 accompanying the rotation of the stirring blade body 40 to improve stirring and improve foaming.
The baffle plate 50 is fixedly attached by a mounting shaft 51 to a fixed shaft 23 provided to hang from a part of the gear cover 22 of the lid 20. The baffle pieces 52, 53 and 54 are attached to the attachment shaft 51.
The baffle pieces 52 to 54 of the baffle plate 50 include a bottom baffle piece 52, a side baffle piece 53, and an upper baffle piece 54 corresponding to the wing portions 42, 43, 44 of the stirring blade body 40. The bottom baffle piece 52 is in contact with the bottom blade portion 42, the side baffle piece 53 is in contact with the side blade portion 43, and the upper baffle piece 54 is in contact with the upper blade piece 44 along a narrow gap S3. , S4, and S5.
When the baffle plate 50 in the fixed state is arranged with the gaps S3, S4, and S5 on the inner side of the stirring blade body 40 that rotates, stirring of the foaming liquid and air entrainment are further improved.

The operation of foaming with this foaming container will be described.
Ingredients used for whipping include those in which powdered soap is dissolved in water, food-based whipping ingredients such as soapy water and shampoo, food-related ingredients such as raw milk and raw eggs, etc. Any liquid that foams when mixed can be used.
First, the lid 20 is removed from the container body 10. Then, a foaming liquid such as soapy water is supplied to the empty container body 10. Although the amount of the foaming liquid depends on the amount of foaming, for example, it can be set such that a part of the bottom blade portion 42 of the stirring blade plate 40 is immersed.
After putting the liquid for foaming, preparation is completed by attaching the lid 10.
The whisker may hold the manual rotation operation handle 31 by hand and rotate the handle 31 an appropriate number of times or an appropriate time. As the manual rotation operation handle 31 rotates, the rotary disk 32, the through shaft 33, and the internal gear 34 rotate. Then, an external gear 35 having a fixed shaft 23 provided integrally with the gear cover 22 as a pivot is rotated following the internal gear 34. The rotational speed increases in inverse proportion to the number of teeth of the internal gear 34 and the external gear 35. As a result, the stirring blade body 40 is rotated and foamed.
Now, when the stirring blade body 40 is rotated, the foaming liquid stored in the bottom of the container body 10 is pushed by the bottom blade portion 42 and rotated in the circumferential direction.
Then, while rotating and moving in the circumferential direction, as indicated by an arrow P in FIG. 4, it moves in the direction of the bottom peripheral edge of the container main body 10 by centrifugal force, and further from the bottom peripheral edge of the container main body 10 Alternatively, the liquid that has moved upward along the inner side surface 10b of the container body 10 and then moved further upward on the inner side surface 10b is reversed to the inside by hitting the back surface of the lid 20, etc. Get involved. In combination with this air entrainment, the liquid in the gaps S 1, S 2, S 3 associated with the collision between the bottom blade part 42, the side blade part 43 and the liquid, and the relative movement between the container body 10 and the stirring blade body 40. Repeated vigorous stirring.
A series of air entrainment and stirring are performed, so that the foaming liquid is sufficiently effectively foamed in a short period of time.

On the other hand, the baffle plate 50 is disposed inside the stirring blade body 40 in a fixed state without rotating. However, when the stirring blade body 40 is rotated, the baffle plate 50 is in the same state as rotating in the opposite direction, and the movement is also performed between the stirring blade body 40 and the baffle plate 50 inside thereof. The incoming liquid is vigorously stirred and a large amount of air is entrained.
By the baffle plate 50 performing the series of air entrainment and stirring, the foaming liquid is more effectively foamed in a short time.

  When foaming is completed, by removing the lid 20, the stirring blade body 40 and the like are also removed, and the container body 10 in which only the foam remains can be obtained. Therefore, it can be used as it is as a container containing bubbles. In addition, the necessary amount of foam can be easily removed from the container body 10 and used for use.

In the embodiment described above, the manual rotation means 30 for manually rotating the stirring blade body 40 is provided, but instead or in combination, a means for automatically rotating the stirring blade body 40 may be provided on the lid body 20. . For example, a means using a battery, another power source, and a motor rotating by the battery.
Moreover, the stirring blade body 40 can also increase the number of blades.
Further, in the above-described embodiment, the baffle plate 50 is fixed in a stationary state. However, the baffle plate 50 may be configured to rotate in the opposite direction simultaneously with the rotation of the stirring blade body 40. In this case, stirring and air entrainment become more intense, and foaming is completed in a shorter period of time. In addition, the baffle plate 50 can be provided in a state where the rotation is free.

  INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention can be used industrially as a foaming container for foaming food-based or food-based liquids.
