[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a tray for a party, for example, a tray for a party used in a stand-up party or the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, it has been inconvenient for a stand-up party because it is not possible to hold a cooking tumbler and a plate at the same time. For this reason, for example, a party tray as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 58-13183 has been proposed. As shown in FIG. 4, this party tray has a structure in which a tumbler fitting hole 2 is penetrated through one side of the tray body 1 and a thumb rest 3 is formed in the vicinity of the tumbler fitting hole 2. ing.

Further, in FIG. 5, a tumbler fitting hole 6 is formed in the dish tray 5 and a finger insertion hole 7 is formed in the dish tray 5, as described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-191973. The formed structure is adopted.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, in the above-mentioned conventional tray body or tableware for parties, the thumb is brought into contact with the position of the finger contact part 3 or is inserted into the insertion hole 7, and the tray body or tableware is inserted by another finger. Since the tableware is held by supporting it, the tray or tableware will slip, and it will be difficult to support it stably for a long time.Because the hole diameter of the tumbler fitting hole is constant, the size of the tumbler is large. However, there was a problem that the tumbler could not be held properly.

[0007] Therefore, a structure is conceivable in which the tumbler can be stably held in the tumbler fitting hole of the tray body by spring means or the like, but the structure becomes complicated and such a structure is also required. This makes the cleaning complicated and makes it difficult to maintain cleanliness, and further has the drawback that it is easily damaged during cleaning.

The present invention has been made in view of such problems, and can stably hold a beverage container such as a tumbler regardless of its size, and can reliably hold the tray body even for a long time. It is an object to provide a tray for a party on which a beverage container, a plate, and the like can be placed.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, a configuration of an embodiment of a tray for a buffet party according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a tray body. The tray body 10 is molded from hard synthetic resin into a substantially flat plate shape and a substantially elliptical shape in a plan view. A notch-shaped recess 12 is formed in the rear portion of one side of the tray body 10.

Further, on the peripheral edges of the front surface 13 and the back surface 14 of the tray body 10, vertical side edges 15 are provided which project vertically.

A circular fitting portion 16 for fitting and holding a beverage container such as a tumbler is formed on one front portion of the surface 13 of the tray body 10. A circular concave step portion 17 is formed in the fitting portion 16, a through hole 18 is formed in the bottom portion of the fitting portion 16, and a circular hole having a diameter smaller than that of the through hole 18 is formed in the concave step portion 17. An anti-slip annular rubber piece 20 having 19 is detachably fitted.

In addition, a hole 20a into which a mark indicating the name of a participant or the name of a group can be inserted is provided at the front of the fitting portion 16 of the tray body 10 on one side.

Further, along the periphery of the fitting portion 16 of the tray body 10, a finger-shaped thumb pad 21 is formed in a protruding shape on the surface side so as to face a position adjacent to the fitting portion 16, and The upper surface of the thumb rest 21 is formed into a concave curved surface that substantially matches the thumb surface abutted when the tray body 10 is gripped.

Further, a rectangular concave portion 22 into which a card-type party menu or a transparent cover on which ordinary memo paper is detachably mounted is fitted is formed on the rear portion of the thumb rest 21. The concave portion 22 has a hole 23 for easily taking out the card-type party menu or ordinary memo paper.

A tool such as chopsticks is placed between the recess 22 and the rear side of the side edge 15 by a ridge 24 protruding substantially parallel to the rear side of the recess 22. A chopstick rest 25 is formed, and the chopstick rest 25 is provided with a chopstick receiving projection 26a.

Further, on the extension of the chopstick rest 25 or on the side edge 15 in the direction in which the tip side of the chopstick rest 25 is orthogonal, notch portions 30 and 31 for projecting the tip of the chopstick are formed to the position of the surface 13. It helps keep the tip of the chopsticks clean and facilitates draining during cleaning.

Further, a cutout portion 26 is formed on one side portion of the side edge 15 in the vicinity of the thumb contact portion 21 so as to make it easy for the thumb to be hooked, and further, on one side of the rear portion of the side edge 15. A notch portion 27 is formed by notching the upper surface so that tools such as chopsticks and forks can be easily taken.

Further, a protrusion-shaped finger hook 29 for hooking a finger other than the thumb is formed on one front portion of the back surface 14 of the tray body 10. As shown in FIG. The shape is such that the middle part bulges to the side.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described.

As shown in FIG. 3, the thumb is brought into contact with the thumb rest 21 and the other finger is brought into contact with the finger rest 29 on the back surface from the notch 26 in the one side edge of the side edge 15 of the tray body 10. The tray body 10 can be gripped, and the tray body 10 can be stably held even for a long time.

Then, a container 32 such as a tumbler is fitted into the fitting portion 16 formed on the surface 13 of the tray body 10, so that the outer side of the thumb is fitted into the fitting portion 16 with the container 32. The side surface of the tumbler can be suppressed, and the tumbler can be reliably and stably held by adjusting the pressing force of the thumb regardless of the size of the container 32. Further, the container 32 is stably held by the non-slip annular rubber piece 20 arranged at the bottom of the fitting portion 16.
