[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a container for transporting prepared foods, and more specifically to a bucket type container used for transporting prepared foods for school lunches and the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a conventional container of this type, for example, as shown in FIG. 5, there is one in which a reinforcing member c is attached by welding to a lower end portion b of a container body a (for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-13343). reference)

In the case of this conventional product, the reinforcing member c includes a horizontal flange portion e applied to the bottom d of the container body a and a rising portion continuously raised from the periphery of the horizontal flange portion e. It was formed in an annular shape by f and the leg part g.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Therefore, in the case of the conventional product, as shown in Fig. 5, when the container is turned upside down and the bottom surface is on top, the circumference of the bottom surface is higher than the central part by the plate thickness of the horizontal flange, so the conventional product is used. Then, there was a problem that water drops were easily accumulated in the central portion of the bottom surface at the time of cleaning and the water could not be drained.

In addition, the conventional product had the trouble of welding the upper edge of the rising portion to the peripheral side surface of the container and the inner peripheral edge of the horizontal flange portion to the bottom surface of the container. Therefore, according to the conventional product, it takes much labor and time to manufacture, and the manufacturing cost increases accordingly.

The present invention is intended to solve the problems of such conventional products. Therefore, the technical problem of the present invention is to provide a transport container for cooked foods, which can surely drain the bottom surface, can reduce welding time and labor, and can be manufactured easily and at low cost.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention adopts the following technical means to solve the above problems. That is, in the present invention, in the case of a cooked food transport container in which the lower end 2 of the container body 1 made of aluminum is covered with the reinforcing member 3, the reinforcing member 3 covers the entire bottom surface 1a of the container body 1 with the bottom plate portion 31. An annular rising portion 32 continuously rising from the periphery of the bottom plate portion 31 to cover the peripheral surface of the lower end portion 2 of the container body 1, and a leg portion 33 formed around the bottom plate portion 31. In the bottom plate portion 31, the central portion 31a is projected downward from the peripheral portion 31b to form a convex step, and the position 33a between the leg portions 33 is the same height as the peripheral portion 31b. And the upper edge 32a of the rising portion 32 is welded to the peripheral surface of the lower end portion 2 of the container body 1 (claim 1).

In this case, in this case, it is preferable that the container body 1 and the lid 6 (see FIG. 2) are colored with the same color (claim 2). The coloring is not limited to the whole of the container body 1 and the lid 6, but may be a part of the coloring. Specifically, for example, a paint or the like may be applied, or a colored metal piece may be fixed at an appropriate place by a rivet or the like. To be achieved. If there are multiple containers with the same outer shape but different capacities, each container should be colored in a different color.

[0009] Actually, containers with lids of various sizes are used at work sites such as lunch cooking. In this case, in the case of containers having the same outer shape but slightly different sizes, it was easy to mistake the lid 6 in the past. Therefore, when the container main body 1 and the lid 6 are colored with the same color as in the case of the present embodiment, the coincidence between the lid 6 and the container main body 1 can be seen at a glance, and the lid 6 is mistaken. The situation can be wiped out.

Further, according to the present invention, it is preferable that the mounting portion 5 of the handle 4 of the container body 1 and the mounting portion 8 of the handle 7 (see FIG. 4) of the lid 6 are colored in the same color (claim 3). . In this case, the pre-colored mounting parts 5 and 8 need only be mounted with rivets, etc. This type of container is easy to manufacture, and the colored part has one-point design, which makes the product novel and interesting. Can be demonstrated.

[0011]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Reference numeral 1 is a container body made of aluminum. A lower end portion 2 of the container body 1 is covered with a reinforcing member 3 which is press-molded with the same aluminum material as the container body 1.

The reinforcing member 3 is provided with a bottom plate portion 31 that covers the entire bottom surface 1 a of the container body 1 and a peripheral surface of the lower end portion 2 of the container body 1 that is continuously raised from the periphery of the bottom plate portion 31. It is formed of an annular rising portion 32 for covering and a leg portion 33 formed around the bottom plate portion 31.

The bottom plate portion 31 is formed in a convex step shape with the central portion 31a protruding downward from the peripheral portion 31b. Further, the position 33a between the leg portions 33 is formed at the same height as the peripheral portion 31b. The upper edge 32a of the rising portion 32 is welded to the peripheral surface of the lower end portion 2 of the container body 1.

Reference numeral 4 (see FIG. 2) is a handle of the container body 1. Reference numeral 5 denotes a mounting portion of the handle 4, which mounting portion 5 has a hat-shaped cross section, and is fixed by a rivet at a position opposite to the upper portion of the container body 1. In this embodiment, three grips 4a are attached to the handle 4 at appropriate intervals.

Reference numeral 6 is a lid, 7 (see FIG. 4) is a handle of the lid 6, and 8 is a mounting portion of the handle 7. The mounting portion 8 is fixed to the central portion of the lid 6 with a rivet, and the handle 7 is erected on the mounting portion 8 so as to be erected. Each of the mounting portions 5 and 8 described above is colored red in this embodiment.

In the container of the present invention, since the central portion 31a of the bottom plate portion 31 projects downward from the peripheral portion 31b and the position 33a between the peripheral portion 31b and the leg portion 33 is formed at the same height, it is upside down. Then, when the container body 1 is tilted to some extent by the handle 4 or the like, the water droplets adhering to the bottom plate portion 31 at the time of washing flow down from the central portion 31a through the position 33a between the legs 33. Further, in the case of the container of the present invention, when the reinforcing member 3 is welded to the container body 1, it is only necessary to weld the upper edge 32a of the rising portion 32 to the peripheral surface of the lower end portion 2 of the container body 1.

[0017]

[Effect of the invention]

 As described above, in the present proposal, the reinforcing member that covers the lower end portion of the container body is provided with the bottom plate portion that covers the entire bottom surface of the container body, and the central portion of this bottom plate portion is projected downward from the peripheral portion and protrudes. In addition to being formed in a stepped shape, the position between the leg portions is formed at the same height as the peripheral portion of the bottom plate portion. Therefore, in the case of the present plan, if it is stored upside down after cleaning, the water droplets adhering to the bottom plate during cleaning tend to flow through the position between the center of the bottom plate and the legs, which may cause this. This has the practical advantage of being able to drain water from the bottom of the container reliably and easily.

Further, according to the present invention, since the reinforcing member is formed as described above, when the reinforcing member is welded to the container body, the upper edge of the rising portion is welded to the peripheral surface of the lower end portion of the container body. It ’s okay. Therefore, according to the present proposal, the welding work with the bottom surface of the container main body, which was necessary in the conventional product, can be omitted, so that the time and effort of welding can be reduced, and accordingly, the manufacturing can be facilitated and the product can be provided at low cost. , Has the advantage.
