Description

  This invention relates to a cold insulation device for temporarily storing meals and small leftovers on a table.

  Conventionally, as a means for storing a small amount of food leftovers and small bowls on the table until the next meal, a so-called “paddle” having aeration and insect repellent effect has been used (for example, patents) Reference 1). Recently, since cold storage devices such as refrigerators have become widespread, such conventional paddles are not used as the frequency of use decreases, and a system kitchen incorporating paddles has also been proposed (for example, Patent Document 2). . Further, there has been proposed an apparatus in which air is sent to a table cooler using an electric device to control the temperature (Patent Document 3).

On the other hand, the thing which provided cold preservation agents, such as dry ice, in the food container itself is proposed as what keeps freshness and provides a cold preservation effect only between meals (for example, patent documents 4).
However, the world has gradually become a nuclear family and the number of elderly households has increased, leading to an increase in the number of lifestyles with small groups.In recent years, we have eaten before the meal to save time and simplify the preparation of the next meal. In order to store meal leftovers, such as rice left over from breakfast and small bowls for a short time before lunch, a simple and safer alternative to a traditional paddle with a cold storage effect is required. Patent Document 5 has been proposed as satisfying the requirements, but since this is always placed on the desktop, it always occupies a certain desktop area even when it is unnecessary, and always occupies a large space even when stored. Therefore, it cannot be said that it is a very simple device.

  Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 09-164031   Registered Utility Model No. 3110952   Registered utility model No. 3054041   JP 2002-181426 A   Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211077

  This invention is intended to provide a more compact folding type tabletop cooler as compared to a tableware cover with a cooler as described in Patent Document 5 in place of the conventional notebook. It is foldable and convenient for carrying and storing. In addition to dry ice, it is possible to use a general cold storage material in a pack, so that it has excellent convenience as a temporary cold storage device for desktop use.

Means to solve the problem

  This device is composed of a cold insulation material mounting table supported by support legs having two sets of U-shaped folding legs, and a foldable thermal insulation sheet cover that covers the entire cold insulation material mounting table from above. It is a foldable desktop portable cold-retaining device that can store an object to be cooled under the cold-insulating material placing table. The cold insulation material mounting table is provided with a cage-like net shelf on which the cold insulation material is placed, and a skirt for dustproofing and insectproofing is provided at the lower end of the thermal insulation sheet cover. .

Effect of device

  This device is foldable and convenient for carrying and storing. In addition to dry ice, it can be used for general cold storage materials in packs, and when not in use, the heat insulating seat cover can be folded and stored The heat insulation sheet cover can be fixed by putting the heat retention sheet cover with the folded legs upside down and can be stored in the drawer or storage shelf as it is, so it is compact as a desktop cold insulation device used when necessary It has the effect of having excellent convenience.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to examples.
FIG. 1 is a partial cross-sectional explanatory view showing an example of use of the desktop cooler 1 of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram when the desktop cooler 1 of the present invention is folded and stored.

  First, FIGS. 3 to 5 will be described. FIG. 3 is an assembly perspective view of the cold insulation material mounting table, and the cold insulation material mounting table 3 is a U-shaped engagement with the bearing and the rotation bearing 3c provided on the back side of the cage-like net shelf 3a. The rotating leg 3b is provided. As shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the U-shaped rotating leg 3b has a cylindrical support provided with a lateral hole 3e for a rotating bearing, and a bent end portion 3f of the U-shaped rotating leg 3b. The U-shaped rotating leg 3b has an elastic force biased inwardly, and the cylindrical support body of the rotating bearing 3c is used as an up-and-down rotating bearing. This is a well-known rotational folding mechanism that acts so as to be sandwiched from both sides and has a click stop function on a flat surface 3g provided on the side surface of the cylindrical support.

FIG. 4 is a bottom view showing a state in which the rotating leg 3b of the cold insulation material mounting table in FIG. 3 is folded.
As shown in this figure, the rotating leg 3b can be folded as necessary, so that the cold insulator mounting table itself can be carried or stored in a compact flat plate shape.
The rotating leg 3b is not limited to this embodiment as long as it is a mechanism capable of rotating and folding.

  FIG. 5 is an oblique view of the opened / closed warming umbrella. Reference numeral 2 denotes a foldable open / close warming umbrella, and the open / close umbrella 2 is an open / close umbrella having the same folding mechanism as that used in a well-known notebook. A well-known heat-insulating sheet 2a in which a sponge and an aluminum foil are bonded to each other instead of a mosquito net is stretched on the framework, and a skirt 2b for insect and dust prevention is provided on the hem.

  FIG. 6 shows a state in which the open / close umbrella 2 is folded, and shows a folded state in which there is no sense of incongruity with a normal book.

  As described above, FIG. 1 is a partial cross-sectional explanatory view showing an example of use of the desktop cooler 1 of the present invention. A plurality of coolers are provided on the inner side of the warming umbrella 2 provided with a skirt 2b for preventing insects and dust. 4 is installed, and under this mounting table 3 are leftovers of previously eaten meals, for example, leftover breakfast rice, small bowls 5 and the like.

  The cold insulation material on the net shelf 3a is a well-known cold insulation material that can be placed in a freezer in a home and frozen and used when needed. However, it is not particularly limited and may be selectively used as necessary.

  FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing a folded storage state of the present invention. When transporting or storing the desk cooler 1 of the present invention, the cool umbrella 2 is folded as shown in FIG. 6, the coolant is removed, the mounting table 3 is turned over as shown, and the folded open / close umbrella 2 is U-shaped. When the two pivot legs 3b are folded after being put between the two pivot legs 3b, the open / close umbrella 2 can be pressed and fixed from above as shown in the figure. Therefore, it can be transported or stored in a compact state as it is. The cold insulation material removed from the mounting table can be put in the freezer again and used at the next opportunity.

It is a partial section explanatory view showing the example of use of the desktop cooler of this device. It is explanatory drawing at the time of folding and accommodating the desktop cooler 1 of this invention. It is an assembly perspective view of the cold insulating material mounting table of this device. It is a bottom view which shows the state which folded the rotation leg 3b of the cold insulating material mounting base of this invention. It is a perspective view which shows the open state of the folding type open / close warming umbrella of this invention. It is explanatory drawing which shows the state which folded the opening / closing umbrella of this invention.
