Description

  The present invention relates to a container capable of cutting stored food in a container and a food in a container cut in the container.

  In general, there are containers for storing rectangular foods such as tofu and deep-fried food and selling them in a sealed state. These containers are provided with a flange outside the upper edge of the peripheral wall. After food is stored inside, the container is sealed by closing the opening of the container with a lid and bonding the peripheral edge of the lid to the upper surface of the flange.

  Among them, a container oriented to manufacture is known in which the stored food is sealed after being cut into small pieces in the storage container, and the food is prevented from collapsing as much as possible by manual cutting after opening (Patent Document). 1).

Utility Model Registration No. 3190943

  In the above container, in order to reliably cut the stored food, the blade length of the cutter entering from above the container is set larger than the opposite side width of the stored food, and a notch groove is formed in the flange so as not to break the container. Is formed. However, the cut groove reduces the bonding area between the flange and the lid and reduces the sealing degree. On the other hand, when trying to cut food with the same size as the inside of the stored container without forming a cut groove and destroying the container, the cutter blade length is the opposite side / diagonal width of the stored food. Therefore, there are cases where the food cannot be completely cut due to deformation of the stored food or slight shift of the storage position caused by the pressure by the cutter.

  Therefore, in the present invention, it is possible to reliably cut the stored food in the container without destroying the container, while ensuring a sufficient adhesion area between the flange at the upper edge of the container peripheral wall and the lid. An object is to provide a container and to provide a food in a container cut into two in the container.

In order to achieve the above object, the invention described in claim 1 is a container having a square shape in plan view or a square shape in plan view and having an upper surface with an entrance for food, on either diagonal line. On the pair of side surfaces forming a complex angle with respect to the above, protrusions that are located near the apex of the complex angle and project inward are formed, and the food having a square shape in a plan view or a square shape in a plan view is stored from the entrance. In the state, the protrusions are alternately brought into contact with the side surfaces of the food, so that the food can be stored in an oblique posture in which its diagonal is shifted from the one diagonal.
The invention described in claim 2 is characterized in that, in the configuration of claim 1, the protrusion is a protrusion extending in the vertical direction.
The invention described in claim 3 is characterized in that, in the container according to claim 1 or 2, x-shaped grooves located on the respective diagonal lines of the container itself are formed at the bottom.
The invention according to claim 4 is a food in a container, and the entrance is sealed in a state where the food according to any one of claims 1 to 3 is accommodated with a food having a square shape in plan view or a square shape in plan view. The food is cut into two at a position deviated from its diagonal.

According to the invention described in claim 1, the stored food is stored in an oblique posture in which its own diagonal is shifted from the diagonal of the container, so that the width of the food on the diagonal of the container is greater than the width of its own diagonal. Is also shortened. That is, even if a cutter with a blade length corresponding to the diagonal width of the food is used on the diagonal of the container, the blade is inserted along the diagonal of the container, so that it can be stored without providing a cut groove in the flange at the upper edge of the peripheral wall of the container. It is possible to reliably cut the processed food into two in the container. Moreover, since the notch groove is not provided, a large bonding area between the flange and the lid can be provided, and the degree of sealing when the container is sealed can be increased.
According to the second aspect of the invention, in addition to the effect of the first aspect, the food that is reliably stored can be stored in an oblique posture in which the diagonal of the food itself deviates from the diagonal of the container.
According to the invention described in claim 3, in addition to the effect of claim 1 or 2, the stored food can be reliably divided in the vertical direction.
According to the invention described in claim 4, the food is contained in a container, and the container according to any one of claims 1 to 3 is filled with food having a square shape in plan view or a square shape in plan view. Can be provided, and food that is cut in two at a position deviated from its diagonal can be provided.

It is a top view of a container. It is a side view of a container, (A) shows a side view from a transversal direction, (B) shows a side view from a longitudinal direction, respectively. It is a perspective view of the state where the food was stored in the container. It is a top view of the state where the food was stored in the container.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, the container 1 has a rectangular shape in plan view, and is a container having a food inlet on its upper surface, and a flange 2 for bonding a lid (not shown), It is provided at the upper edge of the peripheral wall 3. Further, on the pair of side surfaces 3a and 3a that form an angle with respect to one diagonal line L of the container 1, projections 4 that are located near the apex of the angle of intersection and project inward are formed. Furthermore, the X-shaped groove | channel 6 located in each diagonal of the container itself is formed in the bottom part 5 of the container 1. As shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 2 (A), the protrusion 4 is a protrusion that extends vertically from the bottom 5 along the peripheral wall 3 to the food inlet that is open on the upper surface, and is smooth with the flange 2, the peripheral wall 3 and the bottom 5. Connected to. A groove 6 is formed from the bottom 5 downward.
As shown in FIG. 2B, the protrusion 4 is formed near the apex of the complex angle with respect to one diagonal line L of the container 1, that is, on the long side surface 3a of the container 1 near the short side surface. The protrusion 4 is tapered from the flange 2 and the peripheral wall 3 to the tip of the protrusion 4.
Further, the peripheral wall 3 is formed in a slightly tapered shape downward.

  As shown in FIG. 3, when the food 7 having a rectangular shape in plan view is stored in the container 1, the food 7 is supported by the bottom 5 and alternately with the two protrusions 4 provided on the side surfaces 3 a and 3 a of the container 1. By abutting, the diagonal line L1 of the food 7 itself becomes an oblique posture deviating from the diagonal line L of the container.

  Thus, according to the container 1 of the said form, the foodstuff 7 of the planar view square shape accommodated is contact | abutting with the two protrusions 4 alternately, and the diagonal line L1 of the foodstuff 7 itself is from the diagonal line L of the container 1. The container 1 is stably stored in an oblique posture that is shifted. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4, the width L2 of the food 7 located on the diagonal L of the container is shorter than the diagonal L1 of the food 7 itself, and therefore a cutter having a blade length corresponding to the length of the diagonal L1 ( (Not shown), by cutting the food 7 into two pieces in the container without damaging the container 1 by causing the blade to enter from above the container 1 along one diagonal L of the container 1 It becomes possible. In addition, since the bottom surface of the food 7 is supported by the bottom 5 of the container 1, the food 7 can be moved vertically without damaging the container by causing the cutter blade to slightly enter the groove 6 beyond the bottom 5. In addition, it can be cut reliably. Moreover, the directionality of the blade of the cutter with respect to the container 1 is not limited by making the groove | channel 6 into X shape. Further, since the peripheral wall 3 is tapered, the plurality of containers 1 can be stored in a stacked state.

  After the food 7 is cut into two, the food inlet opened on the upper surface of the container 1 is closed with a lid, and the flange 2 and the lid are bonded to each other so that the cut food 7 is stored in the container. It is possible to provide food in a container in which 1 is sealed and cut into two at a position deviated from its diagonal.

  The present invention has been described based on the illustrated example, and the technical scope thereof is not limited to this. For example, if the stored food can be in an oblique posture, the protrusions formed on the side surface of the container may not be tapered, or may be a plurality of protrusions arranged in the vertical direction. In addition, the container may have a square shape in plan view.
