Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a rice-free rice container that also serves as a water meter.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Most of the 2kg, 5kg, 10kg containers that are just bags of rice are not weighed at the time of rice cooking, and sometimes 150g resin bags are needed for rice cooking. It can also be used for measuring water.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 The present invention aims to reduce the difficulty of cooking rice for the visually impaired and the elderly and to measure water for cooking rice outdoors such as in camps. In particular, visually impaired people have difficulty weighing rice.While washing the rice is done, they measure the water by touching the stamp on the rice cooker and pouring the water. The hardness is not constant and I am not satisfied. In addition, it is not easy to measure water in camps, because rice is often cooked using something other than a rice cooker. In general, even a healthy person measures the amount of water on the scale of the rice cooker, but cannot measure accurately if the rice cooker is tilted.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The above problem is solved by matching the content of the unwashed rice, the volume of water required for cooking and the size of the container. If the volume of unwashed rice is 1, the volume of water is 1. 15th to 1.2th place.

[0005]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Round bottom and square bottom containers of paper or resin are covered with unwashed rice and capped. The method of use is a simple container that first puts the lid, puts the unwashed rice in the rice cooker, and then pours the empty water into the rice cooker. A desirable container shape is a container which can be easily removed and has a small area of the lid, that is, a vertically long container can be measured more accurately when measuring water.

[0006]

[Effect of the invention]

 It is a common product that can be easily cooked by not only healthy persons but also visually impaired persons and the elderly. It is also convenient for cooking rice outdoors in camps. There is no need to weigh rice, and water is easy to measure. For example, if the container of the present invention is a single container (150 g), if you want to cook three containers, remove the lids of the three containers and put them in the pot. It is a very convenient container that anyone can easily cook rice just by pouring rice up to the top of the empty container after pouring rice into the 3 cups and igniting.
