Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a container with a lid. More specifically, the present invention relates to a container with a lid that prevents the surroundings of the tea bag from being contaminated with drops of the bag when the tea bag is pulled out from the container for reuse.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 From the standpoint of the complexity of determining the amount of tea leaves, etc., and the ease of processing after use, etc., from the past, a bag made of filter paper or the like wrapped with tea, Japanese tea leaves, coffee, etc. A so-called tea bag with a thread attached and a cardboard tag attached to the tip is used. When using a tea bag, pour hot water into a container such as a cup, put a bag into the hot water, put the tag out of the cup, and hold the thread between the upper edge of the container and the peripheral edge of the lid. Was there.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 When using tea bags, if the amount of tea is low, the bag may be pulled out of the cup and used again after a while. In such a case, the raised bag was transferred to another container such as a plate. At this time, drops were sometimes dropped from the bag during transfer and soiled the floor and table.

The present invention solves such a problem, and when the tea bag is pulled up from the cup for reuse after tea, the floor and the dining table are soiled with drops from the bag. It is an object of the present invention to provide a container with a lid capable of preventing the above.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The means of the present invention taken to solve the above problems are as follows. In the first invention, a container with a lid, comprising: a container body, and a lid body capped on the upper portion of the container body, wherein the lid body extends inward from a peripheral portion. The container with a lid is characterized in that an insertion groove penetrating the upper and lower surfaces thereof is provided.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, a container with a lid is provided with: a container body; and a lid body capped on an upper portion of the container body. The container with a lid is characterized in that an insertion groove penetrating the upper and lower surfaces thereof is provided toward one side, and a bent portion is provided at an end portion on the inner side of the insertion groove.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, a handle member is provided on the upper surface side of the lid body to serve as a support when the lid body is turned upside down. It is a container with a lid according to the first or second invention.

In a fourth invention, a bank portion protruding from the lower surface along the edge of the insertion groove is provided on the lower surface side of the lid body. A container with a lid according to the second or third invention.

[0009]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The present invention will be described in more detail based on an embodiment shown in the drawings. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a lidded container according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a state in which hot water and a tea bag are put in the container body of the lidded container shown in FIG. 1, and FIG. FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a state in which the lid of the lidded container shown in FIG.

FIG. 1 is an example of a container with a lid that is most frequently used, and includes a container body 1 and a lid 2 that is capped on the top thereof. The container body 1 has a bottomed cylindrical shape, but may have another shape. The lid 2 is provided with an insertion groove 4 penetrating inwardly from the peripheral portion 3 from the upper surface 6 to the lower surface 8. The insertion groove 4 extends from the peripheral edge portion 3 toward the central portion, and is bent at an acute angle at a position of approximately 1/3 of the radius to provide a bent portion 5.

It should be noted that the insertion groove 4 of the lid body 2 is so arranged that the lid 2 is turned over and a drop 12 of the tea bag 10 containing hot water is placed on the lower surface 8 side so that drops do not easily drop downward. It is preferable that it does not extend to the central portion. A bank portion 9 protruding from the lower surface 8 is provided along the edge of the insertion groove 4 on the lower surface 8 side. Reference numeral 15 is a fitting ridge that is fitted inside the opening of the container body 1 and prevents the lid 2 from shifting.

The gap of the insertion groove 4 may be such that the yarn 11 of the tea bag 10 can be passed through, and for example, 2 mm is sufficient. At the central portion on the upper surface 6 side of the lid body 2, there is provided a handle member 7 which serves as a support portion when the lid body 2 is placed upside down. The handle member 7 is a circular strip. The handle member 7 is not limited to the structure described above, and may be a strip provided with a square shape, an elliptical shape, or a strip provided with discontinuous projections or the like.

(Operation) The operation of the container with a lid will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. As shown in FIG. 2, the bag 12 of the tea bag 10 is put into the hot water 13 contained in the container body 1, and the thread 11 is passed through the insertion groove 4 of the lid 2. The tag 14 is on the upper surface 6 of the lid 2. In this way, the tea component inside the bag 12 is dissolved in the hot water 13.

When the tea bag 10 is to be used again, hold the tag 14, pull up the thread 11 to bring the bag 12 containing the tea leaves into close contact with the lower surface 8 of the lid 2, and turn the lid 2 inside out. The bag 12 is placed on the lower surface 8 substantially in the center thereof. In this process, if the thread 11 is hooked on the bent portion 5 at the end of the insertion groove 4, the thread 11 does not come off from the insertion groove 4, and the work is easy.

In this way, the bag 12 can be placed on the lower surface 8 of the lid 2 and does not need to be transferred to another container or the like as in the conventional case, so that the drops drop from the bag 12 and the floor or the table. You can prevent it from getting dirty. Further, during the subsequent mounting, even if the bag 12 contains a large amount of water, the water is removed by the bank portion 9 provided along the edge of the insertion groove 4 on the lower surface 8 side of the lid body 2. It is dammed and does not leak downward from the insertion groove 4. Since the handle member 7 that serves as a support when the lid 2 is placed upside down is provided on the upper surface 6 side of the lid 2, it is possible to place the lid 2 upside down in a stable state. it can.

[Effect of the invention]

 The present invention has the above configuration and has the following effects. (A) According to the first invention, when the tea bag is used, such as when the number of people is small or the amount of coffee is small, when the tea bag is used again, the thread passed through the insertion groove is pulled. Touch the bag to the lower surface of the lid, turn the lid over in that state, put the bag on the lower surface of the lid (in this case, the upper surface), and leave it there until it is used again. Can be placed. According to this, it is not necessary to transfer the tea bag bag into another container or the like, so that it is possible to prevent the drops from contaminating the floor or the table.

(B) According to the second invention, when the tea bag is used again, if the yarn is hung on the bent portion when the yarn is pulled in the same manner as described above, the yarn does not easily come off from the insertion groove, and the bag is filtered. The work of pulling up to the back of the lid is easy.

(C) According to the third invention, since the handle member that serves as a support portion when the lid is turned over is provided on the upper surface of the lid, when the bag is placed on the lower surface of the lid. The lid can be placed with stability.

(D) According to the fourth invention, since the bank portion protruding from the lower surface along the edge of the insertion groove is provided on the lower surface side of the lid body, the lid body is turned upside down, When the bag is placed, even if the bag contains a large amount of water, the water is dammed by the bank, so it does not leak downward from the insertion groove, and the floor and table can be prevented from becoming dirty.
