Description

  The present invention relates to a cooker set, and in particular, relates to a cooker set that is convenient and easy to store, and also rich in design as a gift.

  Conventionally, for example, appliances disclosed in Patent Literatures 1 to 3 have already been proposed as a cooker set in which cookers used in general households are integrated. Here, the cooker set disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2 is specialized for cooking small amounts of food for individuals and babies, and specifically, on a mortar-like container with a handle extending outward. In addition, a plurality of cookers having substantially the same diameter are detachably provided, and a lid is further provided to cover these cookers.

  Moreover, the cooker set of patent document 3 is provided with the measuring cup with which the handle part extended outside unlike the mortar-shaped container as described in patent documents 1 and 2, and a plurality of cooking utensils and lids on the cup. It adopts a structure that is detachably mounted.

  However, in the conventional products including the above-described cooker set, a uniform design is given to the individual cookers constituting the set, but in a state where the component parts are assembled, the unit is refined. There was nothing that fully demonstrated the design. Therefore, the conventional cooker set is often purchased for use by the mother or his / her family to use for his / her own life, such as gifts for ceremonial occasions, etc. It wasn't something of value.

  In addition, the conventional products shown in Patent Documents 1 and 2 are provided with a cooker that measures liquids such as water, liquor, mirin, and seasonings during cooking, and assists the injection thereof. It wasn't. Therefore, when cooking ingredients using liquids and seasonings, the cook must prepare a funnel and measuring cup in addition to the conventional cooker set. There was room for improvement.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211088 Registered Utility Model No. 3137443 Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 63-105822

  The present invention has been proposed in view of such a conventional situation, and an object thereof is to provide a cooker set that eliminates the drawbacks of the prior art. That is, an object of the present invention is to provide a cooker set that is not only convenient and storable but also rich in design as a gift.

  Another object of the present invention is to provide a cooker set that is very easy to use when cooking foods using liquids and seasonings.

  After the intensive study, the present inventors have rarely used a funnel as a detachable component in this type of conventional cooker set, and the shape of the funnel is the shape of the constricted part of a bottle such as a wine bottle. If you adopt this funnel as one of the components and configure (assemble) it in association with other components, you can express the shape of a bottle such as a wine bottle as a whole cooker set. We found out to produce and came to complete this invention.

  Further, the present inventor, as another component, if a mounting tool having a through hole whose one end is smaller than the discharge hole is placed on the funnel through the other end of the through hole having substantially the same size as the discharge hole, If the discharge flow rate per unit time can be suppressed, and if this fixture is configured to be detachable from the one end side, the entire bottle shape (silhouette) of the cooker set is not impaired, The present inventors have found that the fixture can be stored integrally with the cooker set, and have completed the preferred embodiment of the present invention.

  Furthermore, the present inventor has found that as other components (cooker), measuring cups, lemon squeezers, condiment graters, cheese graters, boiled egg crushers, cap openers, yolk separators, etc. are preferable. The present invention has completed a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

  Furthermore, the present inventor has noticed that a part of the funnel has a complementary shape to a part of the lemon squeeze, which is another component, and if the two are placed facing each other, the storage property is further improved. It has been found that there is an improvement, and a preferred embodiment of the present invention has been completed.

That is, the present invention employs at least the following configurations and features.
1. A container having an opening on the upper side;
A funnel formed with a discharge hole, a throttle extension for receiving the discharge hole, and a receiving part, and detachable from the opening of the container via the receiving part;
Comprising at least

3. The funnel further comprises a fitting that can be attached to and detached from the discharge hole,
The attachment has a through hole having a diameter substantially the same as the diameter of the discharge hole on one end side and a diameter smaller than the diameter on the other end side,
The fixture is detachably formed in the discharge hole from the one end side or the other end side,
The fitting is attached so that the one end having the smaller diameter is accommodated inside the discharge hole during storage, whereas the one end is attached to the funnel when used. 3. The cooker set according to 1 or 2, wherein the set is attached so as to extend outward from the discharge hole.
4). The vessel is a measuring cup;
The cooker set according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein at least one of the container and the funnel is made of transparent resin or transparent glass.
5). At least one interposition member is detachably mounted between the vessel and the funnel,
The intervention member is selected from any of a lemon squeezer, a condiment grater, a boiled egg crusher, a cheese grater, a cap opener and an egg separator, and
The cooker set according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein when the interposition member is placed on the container together with the funnel, the bottle shape is expressed as a whole.
6). 6. The cooker set according to claim 5, wherein the lemon squeezer has a dome portion formed in the center, and the dome portion is accommodated in the receiving portion of the funnel when stored.

  The cooker set of the present invention not only excels in the storage and functionality of individual components, but also expresses the unique bottle shape as a whole cooker set by utilizing the outer shape of one component funnel.・ It becomes possible to produce. In other words, it focuses on the overall appearance and aesthetics of individual parts that have not been prioritized in conventional products in the cooking container field, where price and usability are priorities. Therefore, it can be used for gifts such as ceremonial occasions as well as purchasing for yourself. For example, if you give a gift that is packaged alongside real wine, it is practical and gorgeous in appearance, so it will be very pleasing to the recipient.

  In the preferred cooker set of the present invention, the above-described fixtures are further detachably attached to the funnel of the component parts, so that the discharge flow rate per unit time is reduced and the funnel discharge port (spout) is reduced. This will increase the number of scenes / opportunities that this funnel can be used. Since the attachment can be attached to the funnel tip as described above, a design in which a wine bottle (cork stopper) is further added to the wine bottle can be produced as an overall appearance.

A suitable cooker set of the present invention has a measuring cup in addition to the funnel, and a lemon squeezer, a condiment grater, a boiled egg crusher, a cheese grater, a cap opener, a yellow egg separator, etc. The cooker can be detachably mounted as an interposition member. The convenience of the cooker set at the time of cooking can be further improved by increasing the number of the interposed members. Also, if the measuring cup, funnel, etc. are made of transparent resin (or transparent glass), it will not only be easy to use individually, but also be sandwiched between them during storage. Since the wearing member can be seen through, it becomes easy to distinguish the interposed member.

  The preferred cooker set of the present invention not only dramatically increases the storage capacity but also improves the aesthetic appearance when the lemon squeezer of the interposing member is placed adjacent to the funnel as described above. .

It is a figure explaining the use condition of the funnel of this invention. It is the disassembled perspective view which showed the cooker set of Example 2. FIG. It is the disassembled perspective view which showed the cooker set of Example 3. FIG. It is the perspective view which arranged and showed the cooker set of Examples 1-3. It is sectional drawing which arranged and showed the cooker set of Examples 1-3.

Hereinafter, although the present invention will be described based on the embodiments shown in the drawings, the present invention is not limited to the following specific embodiments.

(Structure of cooker set)
FIG. 1: shows the disassembled perspective view of the cooking appliance set 1 which concerns on Example 1 of this invention. The cooker set 1 includes at least a container body 10 having an opening 11 on the upper side and a funnel 20 as minimum components. The funnel 20 has a receiving portion 21, a discharge hole 22, and a throttle extension 23 connecting them. The liquid poured into the receiving part 21 is once accommodated in the internal space, and then flows into the internal cylindrical space of the throttle extension 23 connected thereto, and finally flows out from the discharge hole 22. Become.

  The funnel 20 can be attached to and detached from the opening 11 of the vessel body 10 through the receiving portion 21. In addition, the outermost edge 11 a in the opening 11 of the vessel body 10 and the outermost edge 21 a in the receiving part 21 of the funnel 20 have substantially the same outer diameter. The cooker set 1 of the present invention is configured as described above, and is characterized in that when the funnel 20 is placed on the vessel body 10, the cooker set 1 as a whole represents a bottle shape.

  In the example of FIG. 1, the container body 10 has a substantially cylindrical shape, and the receiving portion 21 of the funnel 20 has a substantially hemispherical shape. The diameter of the portion 11 may gradually increase or decrease linearly or curvilinearly from the bottom portion 12 toward the outermost edge 11a, and the receiving portion 21 of the funnel 20 may have a substantially conical shape.

  In addition, it is preferable that at least one groove portion (vertical groove in the illustrated example) 26 is provided (engraved) on the outer peripheral surface 25 of the funnel 20. The longitudinal groove 26 is used when the funnel 20 is used (particularly when a liquid container (for example, a bottle, not shown) having an opening having a slightly larger diameter than the discharge hole 22 of the funnel 20 is used with the funnel 20). The following advantages are exhibited. That is, it is necessary to always release the air inside the liquid container by supplying (inflowing) the liquid from the funnel 20 to the liquid container. However, if no measures are taken, the funnel 20 placed on the liquid container The opening of the liquid container is completely blocked by the diaphragm extension 23 and the outer peripheral surface 25 of the receiving part 21. Therefore, if the longitudinal groove 26 as shown in the figure is provided in a part of the outer peripheral surface 25, the opening of the liquid container is not completely blocked by the funnel 20 injected into the opening, and the internal air is always kept. It becomes possible to secure an escape route (ventilation route).

  Moreover, it is preferable that the cooker set 1 of this invention is further provided with the attachment tool 30 which can be attached or detached to the discharge hole 22 of the funnel 20 so that it may mention later. Specifically, it is preferable that a coupling portion 24 that enables the attachment tool 30 to be attached and detached is provided in the vicinity of the discharge hole 22. The coupling portion 24 has, for example, the same inner diameter as the inner diameter of the throttle extension portion 23 of the funnel 20, but may be configured to have a thickness that is thinner than that.

  FIG. 2 is an exploded cross-sectional view showing how the funnel 20 and the fixture 30 are attached. Here, Fig.2 (a) shows the attachment state at the time of storing the fixture 30 with the funnel 20, On the other hand, FIG.2 (b) is the attachment at the time of mounting the fixture 30 and using the funnel 20. Indicates the state.

  FIG. 3 is a view for explaining a use state (perspective view) of the funnel 20, FIG. 3 (a) shows a state in which the fixture 30 is used in combination, and FIG. 3 (b) shows the funnel 20 alone. Indicates the state to be used.

The fixture 30 is provided with a through hole 33 having a diameter Da ₁ on the lower end 31 side and a diameter Da ₂ larger than the diameter Da ₁ on the upper end 32 side. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the fixture 30 can be attached to and detached from the coupling portion 24 (that is, the discharge hole 22) of the funnel 20 from the lower end 31 side or the upper end 32 side. More specifically, an outer edge portion 34 that surrounds (surrounds) the through-hole 33 with a predetermined thickness may be formed on the lower end 31 side of the fixture 30. Here, the diameter of the through hole 33 defined by the outer edge portion 34 is constant to the depth Da ₂ on the upper end 32 side up to a certain depth, and is substantially the same as the outer diameter Dr ₁ of the coupling portion 24 of the funnel 20. . Furthermore, inside this, it gradually becomes smaller until the diameter Da _{1 of the} lower end 31 is reached.

  On the other hand, on the lower end 31 side, an inner protrusion 35 that surrounds (surrounds) the through-hole 33 with a predetermined thickness, an outer edge 34, and a groove 36 defined by these elements 35, 34 (in the illustrated example) And a cylindrical cavity defined between them) may be formed. By forming in this way, the groove part 36 can be detachably fitted to the coupling part 24 of the funnel 20.

As shown in FIG. 2, the fixture 30 can be attached to and detached from the coupling portion 24 of the funnel 20 from the lower end 31 side or the upper end 32 side, but there are differences in the attached state as shown below. That is, the fixture 30, upon storage when not in use is mounted for bottom 31 having a smaller diameter Da ₁ (and the internal protrusions 35) is housed inside of the discharge hole 22. On the other hand, when attached to the funnel 20 and used together with the funnel 20, the lower end 31 and the inner protrusion 35 are attached so as to extend outward from the discharge hole 22 (see also FIG. 3A). In other words, the flow path length of the discharge hole 22 is extended while the cross-sectional flow path shape is gradually reduced by the through hole 33 of the fixture 30.

  Note that the fixture 30 is preferably made of an elastic material such as rubber, elastomer, or silicon. Thereby, while being easy to attach or detach with the funnel 20, the slight dimensional error at the time of a fitting with the funnel 20 is absorbed, and a favorable fitting state can be ensured.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (a), the orientation (attachment state) of the fixture 30 is selected and attached to the funnel 20, so that the discharge flow rate per unit time can be reduced or the funnel outlet (pour spout) can be reduced. The function as the funnel 20 can be increased (the usability is improved), and the usable scenes / opportunities are further increased. In addition, from the external shape and attachment structure of this fixture 30, the design as if the wine stopper (cork stopper) was further given to the wine bottle as the cooker set 1 whole can also be produced (refer FIG. 7).

  The container body 10 is preferably a measuring cup, and more preferably a measuring cup having a measuring scale attached to the side portion 13. In order to function more effectively as a measuring cup, at least the side surface 13 of the container 10 is made of a transparent material (for example, transparent resin, transparent glass) so that the inside of the container 10 can be visually confirmed from the outside. It is preferable that

  The funnel 20 and the vessel body 10 may be provided with locking portions 2a and 2b for restricting relative movement in the outer peripheral direction. In the illustrated example, the semicircular convex portion 2a is integrally provided on the outermost edge 21a of the funnel 20, and the semicircular concave portion 2b is integrally provided on the outermost edge 11a of the vessel body 10. If movement can be restricted to some extent, it is not limited to the said structure. For example, the convex portion 2a may be provided on the container 10 side, and the concave portion 2b may be provided on the funnel 20 side.

  Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be illustrated with reference to the drawings. FIG. 4: shows the disassembled perspective view of the cooking appliance set which concerns on Example 2 of this invention. As shown in FIG. 4, a lemon squeezer 410 is detachably mounted as an interposed member between the vessel body 10 and the funnel 20.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the lemon squeezer 410 includes an outer edge portion 411 that is substantially the same as the outer shape and outer diameter of the opening portion 11 of the vessel body 10 and the receiving portion 21 of the funnel 20. Further, the outer edge portion 411 of the lemon squeezer 410 has a locking portion (a concave portion 3b in the illustrated example) corresponding to a locking portion (the convex portion 2a in the illustrated example) provided on the outermost edge 21a of the funnel 20. And at least a pair of locking portions (the convex portions 3a on the outer edge fitting portion 411a in the illustrated example) corresponding to the locking portions (the concave portion 2b in the illustrated example) provided on the outermost edge 11a of the vessel body 10. It is preferable to provide the above (two pairs in the illustrated example).

  FIG. 5: shows the disassembled perspective view of the cooking appliance set which concerns on Example 3 of this invention. As shown in FIG. 5, a plurality (preferably a large number) of interposed members are detachably mounted between the vessel body 10 and the funnel 20. Examples of the intervening member include a lemon squeezer 410, a condiment grater 420, a boiled egg crusher 430, a cheese grater 440, a cap opener 450, a yolk separator 460, and the like. Any device that can be used as an instrument may be used. Moreover, it is not necessary to prepare and interpose all these interposing members 410 to 460, and they may be purchased according to the needs of the user.

  These interposing members 410 to 460 include outer edge portions 411, 421, 431, 441, 451, 461 that are substantially similar to the outer shape and outer diameter of the opening portion 11 of the vessel body 10 and the receiving portion 21 of the funnel 20, and the vessel body 10 or outer edge fitting portions 411a, 421a, 431a, 441a, 451a, 461a that can be fitted to each other. Note that most of the interposed members 420, 430, 440, 450, and 460 shown in FIG. 5 are substantially flat plates having circular outer edge portions 421, 431, 441, 451, and 461.

  These outer edge portions 411, 421, 431, 441, 451, 461 and outer edge fitting portions 411a, 421a, 431a, 441a, 451a, 461a have the same size and shape as described in the second embodiment. It is preferable that at least one pair (two pairs in the illustrated example) of the locking portions (specifically, the convex portions 3a and the concave portions 3b) are formed. Accordingly, the locking portions 3a and 3b are the corresponding locking portions 2b, 2a, 3b, and the like of the container 10, the funnel 20, and the interposition members 410, 420, 430, 440, 450, and 460 that are placed adjacent to each other. Fits easily to 3a.

  By comprising the cooker set 1 of Example 3 in this way, when the interposed members 410 to 460 are placed on the vessel body 10 together with the funnel 20, the cooker set 1 as a whole represents a bottle shape.

  In the lemon squeezer 410 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the dome portion 412 is preferably formed in the center, and the dome portion 412 is preferably housed in the receiving portion 21 of the funnel 20 during storage. If the lemon squeezer 410 having such a shape is complementarily placed adjacent to the funnel 20 as shown in the drawing, not only the storage performance is dramatically increased, but also the visual aesthetics are improved.

  6 and 7 show a perspective view and a cross-sectional view of the cooking device set 1 of the first to third embodiments side by side. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, various product grades can be easily set for sale simply by increasing or decreasing the number of interposing members 410 to 460.

  As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated in detail based on the said Example, it is not necessarily limited to this. For example, by changing various cross-sectional shapes of the vessel body 10, the funnel 20, the interposition member, etc., the shape expressed by the entire cooker set 1 is not limited to wine bottles, such as, for example, bottles, pet bottles, whiskey bottles, etc. You may change into another bottle shape.

  Conventionally, there are cooker sets in which several cookers are integrated, and these conventional products are also used to some extent in ordinary households. However, the cooker set of the present invention dramatically improves the storage and design of the cooker set as a whole, considering not only the individual structures and functions of the components but also the state of mutual assembly. .

  The cooker set of the present invention further has the above-mentioned features and advantages, and therefore provides a new use value and use scene that could not be created by conventional products. For example, the cooker set of the present invention is highly likely to be used as a gift for celebrations such as weddings. At this time, if you package together real high-quality wine, it will be a very elaborate gift. In addition, there is a high possibility of being used as an object for ornamental use in a general household or a restaurant. Therefore, the cooker set of the present invention has very high industrial applicability.
