Description

  The present invention relates to a skewer processing tool that can easily dispose of used skewers generated after eating skewered foods in a visually invisible state and in a contained state. The present invention also relates to a skewer processing tool having a skewer stand function that can support skewered food with the skewer standing.

  In the case of skewered food made by skewering food such as dried fish, vegetables, fish meat, and livestock meat, the used skewer is generated as waste after the food is cooked and cooked appropriately.

  Used skewers that occur during meals are often stood in a cup placed on the table or placed on a plate, but it is common for used skewers to be fully visible on the table. There was a problem of damaging the atmosphere.

  In order to improve these problems to some extent, a skewer storage stand configured to store a stainless steel cylinder with an open upper end and a skewer standing on this cylinder is actually open and flat. 6-58844 has proposed. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-19902 discloses a bamboo skewer processor in which a funnel-shaped cover is attached to the upper part of a honeycomb-shaped main body for piercing the front end of the bamboo skewer, and the surface of the funnel-shaped cover is decorated. Proposed in However, such a conventional used skewer processing tool does not allow the entire skewer to be housed in an invisible state, but has a problem that the used skewer is in a state where it is always noticeable. There was no change in losing.

  In addition, there is a skewer stand that can support the skewered food in an upright state by inserting the end of the skewered food into a plurality of support holes provided on the upper surface of the dome-shaped stand. This is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 4-86469. When using such a skewer stand, there was an advantage that many skewered foods could be provided in an upright state, but the used skewers generated after eating a dish were visually unobtrusive and simply stored and discarded. There was no skewer processing means to do.

  In the present invention, used skewers generated after eating skewered foods can be disposed of visually and easily in an invisible state and can be easily disposed of in a contained state, improving the atmosphere of the meal, and used skewers in one direction. It is an object of the present invention to provide a skewer processing tool that can be sequentially accommodated in a substantially aligned state and can be easily handled.

  It is another object of the present invention to provide a skewer processing tool that can function as a skewer stand that can support skewered foods in a state in which the skewer is stood in addition to being able to discard the skewer in the accommodated state.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention employs the following means.

  In other words, the skewer processing tool according to the present invention is separated into a container having an accommodation space in which the entire used skewer can be sequentially accommodated in a substantially aligned state in one direction, and the container. A skewer processing tool including a skewer receiving tray that is accommodated and receives the used skewer. The container is provided with side wall portions on both sides of the upper part and the lower end is opened, and the skewer can be inserted into the accommodation space obliquely into the upper part of the container. A skewer insertion hole for dropping into the accommodation space to enter the accommodation state is provided so as to penetrate the upper portion obliquely, and the skewer insertion hole is inclined downward on the upper surface side of the container. An inclined skewer guide groove for guiding the skewer is provided, and a lower inclined skewer guide for guiding the skewer by tilting downward on the lower surface side of the container so as to be linearly connected to the upper inclined skewer guide groove. A groove is provided.

  In the skewer processing tool, the container has a semicircular shape with a cross-section projecting upward, and the lower end is open, and the open width of the lower end is set smaller than the inner diameter of the container, The lateral width of the skewer tray is formed to be larger than the open width, and when the container is lifted, both edge portions of the skewer tray are supported from below by both side portions of the inner peripheral surface of the container. It is preferable that the both edge portions of the skewer tray rise from both side portions of the inner peripheral surface of the container when the container is placed on the installation surface.

  When configured in this manner, the skewer tray is prevented from rotating in the circumferential direction of the container in a state where both edge portions of the skewer tray are supported from below on both side portions of the inner peripheral surface of the container. A detent engagement portion may be provided at a lower portion of the inner peripheral surface.

  In the skewer processing tool, with both edge portions of the skewer tray supported from below on both sides of the inner peripheral surface of the container, the lower end portion of the skewer tray projects downward from the lower end of the container, It is preferable that the both edge portions of the skewer tray are lifted from both side portions of the inner peripheral surface of the container when the container is placed on the installation surface.

  In each of the skewer processing tools described above, in the case where the container is made of bamboo, the skewer insertion hole is inserted into a through hole provided so as to vertically penetrate the upper part of the container. It is preferable that the upper inclined skewer guide groove is continuously provided on the upper surface side of the container, and the lower inclined skewer guide groove is continuously provided in the through hole on the lower surface side of the container.

  In each of the skewer processing tools described above, it is preferable to provide a support hole for supporting the skewered food in an upright state by inserting the end portion of the skewered food into the upper portion of the container.

The present invention has the following excellent effects.
(1) When using the skewer processing tool according to the present invention, the used skewer generated after eating the skewered food is neat and easy to see without being visible in the storage space provided inside the container. It can be disposed of in a housed state, and the meal atmosphere can be improved.

  And the skewer insertion hole provided in the upper part of the container is provided obliquely through the upper part and has upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves. In a state of being guided by the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves, the container is oriented obliquely downward in the axial direction of the container and can be inserted in a stable state. For this reason, the skewers sequentially accommodated in the accommodation space can be substantially aligned in one direction. Since the used skewers are accommodated in such a state that they are substantially aligned in one direction as described above, it is easy to clean the skewers thereafter.

  Since the skewer can be inserted while being guided by the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves, the skewer can be inserted in an inclined state closer to horizontal. Therefore, even if the depth of the storage space is not so deep, the skewer can be inserted into the storage space without difficulty, and the storage device can be configured more compactly.

  In addition, when a support hole for inserting the end portion of the skewer is provided in the upper part of the container, the skewer processing tool can be provided with a skewer stand function for displaying the skewered food in an attractive manner. Convenience can be improved.

(2) When the skewer processing tool according to the present invention is configured to include a container and a skewer tray that is separably stored in the container and receives the used skewer, the skewer processing tool is stored in the storage space. The skewers can be made into a state in which the skewers are substantially aligned in one direction and are collected on the receiving surface of the skewer tray, and the subsequent disposal of the skewers can be facilitated.

(3) In particular, the container has a semicircular shape with a cross section projecting upward and the lower end is open, the open width of the lower end is set smaller than the inner diameter of the container, and the skewer tray When the lateral width of the container is set to be larger than the open width, when the container is lifted, both side edge portions of the skewer tray can be supported from below by the both side parts of the inner peripheral surface of the container. . Therefore, there is an advantage that the container and the skewer tray can be integrated by simple engagement support without specially providing the guide groove 70 as shown in FIG. 21, and both can be lifted and transported simultaneously in this state.

  In particular, when the lower end portion of the skewer tray is configured to protrude downward from the lower end of the container while both side edge portions of the skewer tray are supported from below by the both side portions of the inner peripheral surface of the container. The container and the skewer tray are individually installed on the installation surface. Therefore, there is an advantage that the depth (vertical length) of the accommodation space formed on the upper side of the skewer tray can be set as large as possible.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 19, even when the container 6 is lifted, both side edge portions 33, 33 of the skewer tray 7 are supported from below on both sides of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6. In this case, when the lower end 69 of the skewer tray 7 is positioned above the lower end 11 of the container 6, the depth (vertical length) of the storage space formed on the upper side of the skewer tray is , The skewer tray becomes smaller than when installed on the installation surface. In this case, if the length of the skewer to be accommodated is long, it may be difficult to insert smoothly, such as the skewer must be inserted in a bent state, but when configured as described above, There is an advantage that it is difficult to invite such problems.

  Further, when the container is lifted, when both side edge portions of the tray are supported from below by the both side portions of the inner peripheral surface of the container, the skewer tray is rotated around the axis of the container. However, when the anti-rotation engaging part is provided at the lower part of the inner peripheral surface of the container, such rotation can be reliably prevented and the container and skewer tray can be transported more safely. Will get.

(4) When the container is made of bamboo, when the skewer insertion hole is formed, first, a through hole is provided in the upper portion of the container so as to penetrate vertically, It is assumed that the upper inclined skewer guide groove is continuously provided on the upper surface side of the container, and the lower inclined skewer guide groove is continuously provided in the through hole on the lower surface side of the container. In some cases, the skewer insertion hole that obliquely penetrates the upper portion can be easily and accurately formed without causing the drill to slip.
In addition, since the container is made of bamboo, the container can be formed using bamboo waste material such as thinned bamboo, which contributes to the conservation of the bamboo forest.

  1 to 4 show a skewer processing tool 1 according to the present invention, which also has a function as a skewer stand. The skewer processing tool 1 allows the used skewer 3 generated after being cooked by cooking the skewered food 2 which is made by skeining food such as dried fish, vegetables, fish meat, and livestock meat to be invisible. A container 6 having a storage space 5 in which the entire skewer 3 can be sequentially stored in a state of being aligned in one direction; and a container 6 that is detachably stored in the container 6 and A skewer tray 7 for receiving the skewer 3 is provided.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the container 6 is provided with side wall parts 10, 10 on both sides of the upper part 9, and the lower end 11 is opened, so that the upper part 9 of the container 6 Positioned on both the left and right sides, the skewer 3 can be inserted into the receiving space 5 at an angle, and a skewer insertion hole 12 for dropping the skewer 3 into the receiving space 5 to be in the receiving state is provided in the upper portion. 9 is provided through diagonally. The skewer insertion hole 12 is provided with an inclined skewer guide groove 15 that is inclined downward and guides the skewer on the upper surface side 13 of the container 6, and on the lower surface side 16 of the container 6, A lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 that is inclined downward and guides the skewer is provided so as to be linearly connected to the upper inclined skewer guide groove 15. A support hole for supporting the skewered food 2 in an upright state by inserting an end portion 19 of the skewered food 2 (an end portion serving as a knob) into the upper surface side 13 of the upper portion 9 of the container 6. A large number of 20 are provided so as to serve as a skewer stand.

  The container 6 having such a configuration can be formed using, for example, a cylindrical body 21 that is formed by cutting bamboo material into a predetermined length between nodes and is relatively long in the axial direction. FIG. 5 shows an example of the cylindrical body 21. By cutting the cylindrical body 21 in the axial direction of the cylindrical body at a portion 22 having a diameter of about 2/3 of the cylindrical body 21 as shown by a one-dot chain line in FIG. It is possible to form a container 6 having a horseshoe-shaped half-cylinder shape having a semicircular shape and having an open lower end 11. The inner diameter of the cylindrical body 21 is, for example, about 80 mm, and the length thereof is set to a length that can accommodate the entire skewer 3 in a state where the skewer 3 inserted through the skewer insertion hole 12 is dropped and accommodated. Is done. For example, it is set to about 200 mm. The open width L1 of the lower end 11 (FIG. 4C) is smaller than the inner diameter of the cylindrical body 21.

  As shown in FIGS. 4A and 1, the container 6 having such a configuration is placed on the installation surface 25 with both lower end surfaces 23, 23 abutting against an installation surface 25 such as a table surface. In this state, the storage space 5 that is deep (large in the vertical length) for storing the skewer 3 is formed inside the container 6.

  Then, the skewer 3 can be inserted into the housing space 5 at an angle as shown in FIG. 1 (B) by being positioned on the left and right sides of the upper portion 9 of the container 6. A skewer insertion hole 12 is provided so as to obliquely penetrate the upper portion 9 so as to fall into the space 5 to be in the accommodated state.

  When forming the skewer insertion hole 12, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1C, first, for example, a circular or elliptical through hole 26 is provided in the vertical direction using a drill. In FIG. 1C, a circular through hole is provided. Thereafter, the drill inserted into the through hole 26 is slanted, and the through hole 26 is accommodated at both ends 27 and 29 in the longitudinal direction of the container 6 as shown in FIG. The upper skewer guide groove 15 that is inclined downward inward and has a circular cross section is provided so as to be continuous with the upper surface side 13 of the container 6, and is connected to the lower surface side 16 of the container 6. The lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 inclined downward inward and having a circular cross section is provided so as to be linearly connected to the upper inclined skewer guide groove 15. When the skewer insertion hole is provided in this way, the container 6 is made of bamboo and its upper surface side 13 is slippery, but the tip of the drill does not slide on the upper surface side 13, and the upper portion Thus, the skewer insertion hole 12 that obliquely penetrates 9 can be formed easily and accurately. In addition, the diameter of the skewer insertion hole 12 is preferably set to a size that allows the skewer insertion hole to be inserted even if some of the eating candy remains on the skewer. The diameter of the through hole 26 is, for example, about 8 mm.

  In this embodiment, the skewer processing tool 1 is configured to have a skewer stand function as described above. For this purpose, as shown in FIGS. 1 (A) and 3 (B), the upper portion 9 is used. Of the upper end 30 of the skewer 3 of the skewered food 2 on both the left and right sides of the skewer insertion holes 12 and 12 and on both sides of the upper end 30 of the container 6 as viewed in the circumferential direction. The support hole 20 for supporting the skewered food 2 in a state where the skewered food 2 is erected by inserting the end portion 19) is arranged at a necessary interval in the length direction of the container 6 (for example, at an interval of about 30 mm). It is installed. This space | interval is set, for example to 30 mm so that the skewered food 2 and 2 of the standing state may not contact.

  FIG. 3 shows a state in which a skewered food 2 of dried fish such as sweet shrimp, flounder, grouper, etc. is stood by inserting an end portion (end portion serving as a pick portion) 19 of the skewer 3 into the support hole 20. is there.

  On the other hand, the skewer tray 7 can be formed by using the cylindrical body 21 as shown in FIGS. FIG. 1 and FIG. 4 show an example, and the cylindrical body 21 is formed with the remaining portion formed by cutting as described above, and the length is equal to the length of the container 6. The cross section has a downwardly convex arc shape, and its upper surface is a receiving surface 31 that is recessed in an arc shape. The both sides of the skewer tray 7 are inclined surfaces 32 and 32 that are inclined downward toward the outside.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4B, since the lateral width L2 of the skewer tray 7 is formed larger than the open width L1, when the container 6 is lifted, as shown in FIG. The side edge portions (lower edges 34, 34 of the inclined surfaces 32, 32 in the present embodiment) 33, 33 of the skewer tray 7 are lowered at both side portions 36, 36 of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6. Supported by. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4C, the lower end portion 38 of the skewer tray 7 protrudes downward from the lower end 11 of the container 6, and the container 6 is placed on the installation surface 25. 4A, the both edge portions 33, 33 of the skewer tray 7 are lifted from the both side portions 36, 36 of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6. As shown in FIG.

  When providing a dish using the skewer processing tool 1 that supports the skewered food 2 in a standing state as described above, for example, the skewer tray 7 is accommodated in the container 6 and the container is stored. The container 6 on which the skewered food 2 is supported and the skewer tray 7 can be simultaneously transported in an integrated state by carrying the upper end side portions 37, 37 (FIG. 3) of the handle 6 to a table or the like. When the container 6 is placed on the installation surface 25 such as a table surface, both edge portions 33 and 33 of the skewer tray 7 are placed on both sides of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6 as shown in FIG. The container 6 and the skewer tray 7 are placed on the installation surface 25 at the same time. In this state, the receiving surface 31 of the skewer tray 7 exists below the skewer insertion holes 12 and 12 on the left and right sides, and the accommodating space 5 having a large depth is formed above the receiving surface 31. Will be formed.

  In this state, the favorite skewered food 2 is lifted off the skewer 3 and removed from the support hole 20 to eat sweet shrimp and the like. The used skewer 3 generated after eating in this manner is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6A to FIG. 6D, the skewer processing tool 1 is discarded in the accommodated state. For this purpose, first, as shown in FIG. 6A, the front side portion 39 of the skewer 3 is inserted into the skewer insertion hole 12. In this state, the lower portion 40 of the skewer 3 is in contact with the groove bottom 41 of the lower inclined skewer guide groove 17, and the upper portion 42 is the groove bottom 43 of the upper inclined skewer guide groove 15. It will be in a state of touching. As described above, since the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves 15 and 17 are formed so as to be linearly connected, the skewer 3 can be inserted into the skewer insertion hole 12 in an inclined state closer to horizontal. . This insertion is stably performed by the skewer 3 being guided by the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves 15 and 17 and directed obliquely downward in the axial direction of the container 6.

  When the skewer 3 is further pushed in, the skewer 3 is guided to the groove bottom 43 of the upper inclined skewer guide groove 15 as shown in FIG. Go inward in the axial direction. Thereafter, the lower end 45 of the skewer 3 is placed on the receiving surface 31 of the skewer tray 7.

  When the skewer 3 is further pushed in as shown by an arrow in FIG. 6B, the lower end 45 of the skewer moves the receiving surface 31 forward in the length direction, and the upper portion 46 of the skewer is The state is stored in the inclined skewer guide groove 15. Thereafter, when the upper end 47 of the skewer is pushed in with a fingertip, the lower end 45 of the skewer moves further on the receiving surface 31 and the upper end 47 of the skewer 3 is moved upward as shown in FIG. 6C. The guide groove 15 is supported in the vicinity of the lower end edge 49. When the upper end 47 is pushed in this state, the upper end 47 of the skewer 3 is disengaged from the lower end edge 49 of the inclined skewer guide groove 15 on the upper side, and as shown in FIG. Fall. The fact that the skewer 3 has been dropped can be confirmed by the falling sound at that time, so that the dropping operation has a kind of fun and satisfies playfulness. As shown in FIG. 6D, the skewer 3 that has dropped in this way is in a state where the entire skewer 3 is received by the receiving surface 31 in a state of being extended in the length direction of the skewer tray 7. As a result, the skewer 3 is accommodated in the accommodation space 5 of the container 6 in an invisible state.

  FIG. 7A shows a state in which another skewer 3 is pushed into the skewer insertion hole 12 and its lower end 45 is placed on the receiving surface 31, and the skewer 3 is pushed further in the same manner as described above. And can be dropped onto the receiving surface 31. FIG. 7B shows the fall state, and the length direction of the accommodated skewer 3 is substantially aligned with the length direction of the receiving surface 31. By inserting the skewers 3 into the skewer insertion holes 12 and dropping them one after another in this way, all the skewers can be placed on the receiving surface 31 in a substantially aligned state in one direction. Can be discarded in the accommodation state in the accommodation space 5 in an invisible manner. Thus, since it can be made to discard in an accommodation state invisible, the atmosphere of a meal can be improved.

  When cleaning up after the meal is over, for example, when the container 6 is lifted as shown in FIG. 4C, both edge portions 33, 33 of the skewer tray 7 are formed on both side portions of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6. 36 and 36, and the container 6 and the skewer tray 7 can be integrated with each other naturally, so that the rear cleaning can be performed efficiently. In addition, the skewer tray 7 is easy to clean because the skewers 3 are substantially aligned in one direction as shown in FIG.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, when the container 6 is lifted, both edge portions 33, 33 of the skewer tray 7 are supported by the both side portions 36, 36 of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6 from below. In this engaged and supported state, the lower end portion 38 of the skewer tray 7 protrudes downward from the lower end 11 of the container 6, and therefore when the container 6 is lifted, FIG. As shown to C), both can be made into an integrated state. On the other hand, in a state where the container 6 is placed on the installation surface 25, both edge portions 33, 33 of the skewer tray 7 are on both side portions of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6 as shown in FIG. Thus, the storage space 5 that is deep (large in the vertical direction) can be formed above the receiving surface 31 of the skewer tray 7.

  When the skewer processing tool 1 having such a configuration is used, there is an advantage that when the container 6 is lifted, the skewer tray 7 is also lifted so that both can be transported at the same time. There is a possibility that the skewer tray 7 may be detached from the container 6 by rotating in the circumferential direction of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container. Therefore, in the present embodiment, this is prevented by using the anti-rotation engaging portion 50.

  In this embodiment, the anti-rotation engaging portion 50 is configured by using an anti-rotation engaging member 51 as shown in FIGS. The anti-rotation engaging member 51 is inserted into the holes 52 and 52 provided at, for example, both end sides near the lower ends of the side wall portions 10 and 10 of the container 6 and slightly protrudes into the storage space 5. A knob 55 is provided at the outer end of the shaft body 53 to facilitate removal from the hole 52. 4A and 4B, the tip portion of the shaft body 53 in a state where the knob 55 is in contact with the outer surfaces 56 and 56 of the side wall portions 10 and 10 of the container 6. Reference numeral 57 denotes a state of slightly projecting from the lower portion 54 of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the housing space 5, and the projecting tip portion 57 constitutes the detent engagement portion 50.

  However, when the skewer tray 7 is rotated in the circumferential direction of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6 by swinging during transportation, as shown in FIG. The stopper engaging portion 50 supports the lower surface 59 of the side edge portion 58 of the skewer tray 7 from below, and the skewer tray 7 is prevented from rotating beyond a certain level, and the skewer tray 7 is detached from the container 6. The situation of falling will be avoided.

  When removing the skewer tray 7 from the container 6, for example, as shown in FIG. 1, the container 6 and the skewer tray 7 are placed on the installation surface 25 at the same time, and then the container is stored. The skewer tray 7 can be easily removed from the container 6 by moving the container 6 in the axial direction (arrow F direction). Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 9B, the skewer tray 7 is rotated in the circumferential direction of the container 6 to release the engagement state between the lower surface 59 of the side edge portion 58 and the detent engagement portion 50. This can be done easily. By separating the two in this way, the stored skewer 3 can be easily cleaned, and the container 6 and the skewer tray 7 can be washed separately by removing the skewer tray 7.

  FIG. 10 shows a packaging form in the case where the container 6 and the skewer tray 7 are sold as souvenirs integrated with skewered food made by inserting skewers into dried fish, for example. FIG. In the container 6 opened upward, the skewer tray 7 is stored with the receiving surface 31 facing upward, and a required number of skewered foods 60 are packed in a storage space formed on the receiving surface 31. It shows the stored state. FIG. 10 (B) shows that a container 60 with a required number of skewered foods is accommodated in a container 6 opened upward, and the skewer tray 7 is covered with the receiving surface 31 facing down. It shows the state. These can be appropriately packaged and sold as souvenirs.

  When selling as souvenirs in this way, packing boxes are packed in a stowed state where skewered food is erected in the respective support holes 20 provided in the container 6 in the same manner as shown in FIG. It can also be sold.

  When the purchaser eats skewered food at home, the skewered food is appropriately cooked in a microwave oven or the like, and then the skewer tray 7 is accommodated in the container 6 as shown in FIG. Similarly, when the skewered food 2 is supported in an upright state by inserting the end portion 19 of the skewer 3 into the support hole 20 provided in the upper portion of the container 6, the skewered food can be nicely arranged. . If the used skewer 3 generated after eating the food is accommodated in the accommodating space 5 through the skewer insertion hole 12 in the same manner as described above, the skewer 3 is discarded in an unacceptable state in an invisible state. You will be able to eat at. In the present embodiment, since the skewer insertion holes 12 are provided on the left and right sides of the upper portion 9 of the container 6, both skewer insertion holes 12 and 12 can be used in the same manner. For this reason, for example, it is convenient when eating face to face, and it is convenient for both right-handed and left-handed people.

  As described above, the skewer processing tool 1 according to the present invention is such that the skewer insertion hole 12 is provided with the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves 15 and 17 which are linearly connected. If it is configured only as a through-hole in the direction or provided with only one of the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves 15 and 17, the following problem is caused, which is not preferable.

  FIG. 11 shows a skewer insertion hole 61 formed as a hole 61a penetrating vertically, and FIG. 12 shows that the above-described inclined skewer guide groove 15 is connected to the penetrating hole 61a. FIG. 13 shows a skewer insertion hole 61 in which the lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 is not provided, and FIG. 13 shows that the lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 is connected to the through hole 61a. An inclined skewer guide groove 15 is shown in which the skewer insertion hole 61 is not provided. When configured in this way, in any case, the skewer 3 inserted into the skewer insertion hole 61 hits the upper and lower peripheral edges 62 and 63 of the through hole 61a (FIG. 11) and hits the lower edge 63. (FIG. 12) or hitting the upper edge 62 (FIG. 13), it is inserted into the accommodating space 5 at a large angle θ with respect to the horizontal plane, and cannot be inserted any further. Therefore, unless the storage space 5 is formed so deeply, that is, unless the vertical height of the storage container 6 is increased too much, the skewer 3 cannot be dropped and stored in the storage space 5, which is not preferable. . Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 14, the skewer insertion hole 61 must be formed long in the shape of a groove extending in the length direction of the container 6, and in this case, the skewer insertion hole 61 is stored in the storage space. It is not preferable because the skewers may appear unnecessary.

  FIG. 15 shows an embodiment of the skewer processing tool 1 which does not have the skewer stand function described above, and is configured using a container 6 having a half-divided cylindrical shape obtained by halving bamboo. The support hole 20 for supporting the skewered food in an upright state is not provided.

  Similar to the above, the container 6 includes therein a storage space 5 in which the used skewers 3 can be sequentially stored in a substantially aligned state in one direction. Positioned on both sides, skewer insertion holes 12, 12 are provided so as to penetrate the upper portion 9 diagonally. In the present embodiment, similarly to the above, when the skewer insertion hole 12 is formed, first, as shown in FIG. 15C, the upper portion 9 is provided with, for example, a circular through hole 26 in the vertical direction, As shown in FIG. 15 (B), the through hole 26 is directed downward inward so as to be continuous with the upper surface side 13 of the container 6 at both ends 27 and 29 in the length direction of the container 6. The upper inclined skewer guide groove 15 that is inclined and has a circular cross section is provided, and is inclined downward inward so as to be connected to the lower surface side 16 of the container 6 and has a circular cross section. The lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 is provided so as to be linearly connected to the upper inclined skewer guide groove 15.

  When the skewer processing tool 1 having such a configuration is used, the used skewer 3 is inserted into the skewer insertion hole in the same manner as shown in FIG. The skewer 3 can be inserted into the receiving space 5 while being obliquely oriented by being inserted into 12 and pushed. The skewer 3 can be dropped into the receiving space 5 and accommodated in the accommodating space 5 by pushing the skewer 3 with a fingertip so that the upper end 47 of the skewer 3 is disengaged from the lower end edge 49 of the upper inclined skewer guide groove 15. By sequentially storing the used skewers 3 in this manner, each skewer 3 is received by the receiving surface 31 in a state of being substantially aligned in the extending direction of the skewer tray 7.

  Also in this embodiment, the skewer tray 7 is formed in the same manner as shown in FIG. 4 (C), because its lateral width L2 is larger than the open end width L1 of the lower end 11 of the container 6, so When the vessel 6 is lifted, the skewer tray 7 is lifted simultaneously.

  FIG. 16 shows the skewer processing tool 1 in which a dish-like portion 65 is formed between the left and right skewer insertion holes 12 and 12 in the upper portion 9 of the container 6 having the same configuration as shown in FIG. The dish-like portion 65 formed in this way can be used not only to serve skewered food such as yakitori, but also to place a dish on which skewered food is placed.

  When the skewer processing tool 1 does not have the function of the skewer stand, when the lateral width L2 of the skewer tray 7 is smaller than the open end width L1 of the lower end 11 of the container 6, when the skewer processing tool 1 is transported, For example, as shown in FIG. 17, the skewer tray 7 can be accommodated in a bowl-shaped portion 66 formed with the upper portion 9 of the container 6 facing downward so that both can be transported simultaneously.

  FIG. 18 shows the skewer processing tool 1 configured without using the skewer tray 7 in its use state. Both lower ends 67 and 67 of the container 6 are directly mounted on the installation surface 25 such as a plate or a plate. This shows the state of being placed. When used in this manner, when the skewer 3 is inserted into the skewer insertion hole 12 and accommodated in the accommodating space 5 in the same manner as described above, the skewer 3 is directly received by the installation surface 25.

  The container 6 constituting the skewer processing tool 1 according to the present invention is basically provided with an accommodation space 5 in which the entire used skewer can be sequentially accommodated in a substantially aligned state in one direction. It does not matter whether the lower end is open or whether both ends are open. Also, the shape can be variously formed in consideration of the design of the skewer processing tool, and the material is not limited. And by providing the support hole 20 which supports the state which stood the skewered food 2 in the upper part 9 of the container 6 which has such a structure, the skewered food 2 is inserted, and the skewered food 2 is supported. A skewer processing tool 1 having a skewer stand function for serving food in an upright state can be obtained. Other embodiments are as follows.

  FIG. 19 shows a case where the width of the skewer tray 7 is set larger than that shown in FIG. 4C, and the lower end 69 of the skewer tray 7 when the container 6 is lifted as described above. Is not protruded from the lower end 11 of the container 6. Accordingly, the lower end 69 of the skewer tray 7 is lifted from the installation surface 25 in a state where the container 6 is placed on the installation surface 25.

  FIG. 20 shows another embodiment of the skewer processing tool 1 in which the lateral width L2 of the skewer tray 7 is set smaller than the open width L1 of the lower end of the container 6, and in this case, the installation surface 25 is shown. The container 6 is lifted up with the skewer tray 7 left behind. In the same manner as described above, the skewer 3 can be dropped and accommodated in the accommodation space 5 through the skewer insertion hole 12, as shown in FIG.

  FIG. 21 shows another embodiment of the skewer processing tool 1 that can simultaneously lift the container 6 and the skewer tray 7 when the container 6 is lifted, and shows the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6. Guide grooves 70, 70 extending in the axial direction of the container 6 are provided on both side portions, and both edge portions 71, 71 of the skewer tray 7 are fitted in the guide grooves 70, 70 and can slide. is there. In the skewer processing tool 1, there is no fear that the skewer tray 7 rotates in the circumferential direction of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6.

  FIG. 22 shows another embodiment of the skewer processing tool 1 in which the skewer tray 7 rotates in the circumferential direction of the container 6 and is not likely to come off from the container 6. An anti-rotation engaging portion 50 as an engaging protrusion 75 for supporting the lower surfaces 59 and 59 of 58 and 58 is provided on the lower portion 54 of the inner peripheral surface 35 of the container 6. When the engagement protrusion 75 is provided in this way, when the rear case is cleaned, as shown in FIG. 22 (A), the container 6 is lifted from the state where the container 6 and the skewer tray 7 are installed on the installation surface. Even if the skewer tray 7 rotates, the side edge portion 58 of the skewer tray 7 is supported from below by the engaging projections 75 and 75 on both sides as shown in FIGS. There is no fear that the skewer tray 7 will rotate and fall due to rocking during transportation. When removing the skewer tray 7 from the container 6, for example, the container 6 is moved in the axial direction F in the same manner as described with reference to FIG. 1, or as shown in FIG. 7 is rotated in the circumferential direction of the container 6 to release the engagement state between the side edge portion 58 of the skewer tray 7 and the engagement protrusion 75, and this can be easily performed. Since the two can be separated in this way, it is easy to clean the stored skewer and the container 6 and the skewer tray 7 can be easily cleaned.

  In the skewer processing tool 1 shown in FIG. 23, the container 6 includes a bottomed container 76 having an open upper end and a lid 77 covering the upper end of the container 76 as shown in FIG. The container 6 shown in FIG. 23B is configured with the lid 77 being detachably closed. The container 6 is provided with a closed storage space 5 in which the entire used skewer 3 can be sequentially stored in a substantially aligned state in one direction. And the skewer insertion holes 12 and 12 of the same structure as the above are provided in the upper part 9 as the upper part of the lid 77 in the closed state, for example, on the left and right sides along the longitudinal center line. By inserting the used skewer 3 into the skewer insertion hole 12 and dropping it, the skewer 3 is sequentially accommodated in the accommodation space 5 in a state of being substantially aligned in one direction. The lid 77 in the closed state can be removed from the container 76 by lifting the projections 78 and 78 (FIG. 23 (B)) protruding from both ends in the length direction of the container 76 with a fingertip. Thus, the skewer 3 accommodated in the container 76 can be discarded.

  The skewer processing tool 1 shown in FIG. 24 is formed in the container 6 shown in FIG. 24A, which is formed by cutting bamboo material so that there are nodes 79 at both ends in the length direction. As shown in (C), the accommodating space 5 is provided as a closed space. The upper portion 9 is provided with skewer insertion holes 12 and 12 having the same configuration as described above, located on both the left and right sides. The lower surface portion of the container 6 having such a configuration is formed on a horizontal plane 80 so that the container 6 does not roll on the installation surface 25 as shown in FIGS. You may decide to support with the appropriate base so that this container 6 may not roll.

  23 to 24 also has a skewer stand function, and a support hole 20 for the skewer 3 is provided in the upper portion 9. Further, when configured as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, the container 6 functions as the skewer receiving portion 81 for receiving the skewer at the same time as forming the housing space 5.

  The skewer processing tool 1 shown in FIGS. 25 to 27 is made of a material other than the bamboo material described above, for example, made of synthetic resin or ceramics, and the upper surface portion 9 is formed flat, and the upper surface portion 9 is, for example, on the longitudinal center line. The skewer insertion holes 12 and 12 having the same configuration as described above are provided on both the left and right sides. The support hole 20 is provided in the upper surface portion 9. FIG. 25 is a case where the container 6 is formed in a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and FIGS. 26 to 27 show the skewer processing tool 1 including the container 6 having a trapezoidal cross section.

  FIG. 28 shows another aspect of the skewer insertion hole 12 and is provided in the upper portion 9 of the container 6 so as to penetrate the upper portion 9 obliquely. Unlike the case shown in the above embodiment, the skewer insertion hole 12 does not have a through hole 26 penetrating in the vertical direction, and is composed of only the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves 15 and 17. Since the upper end edge 83 of the groove bottom 41 of the lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 exists immediately above the lower end edge 82 of the groove bottom 43 of the inclined skewer guide groove 15, it reaches the lower portion 85 of the skewer insertion hole 12. It may be difficult to insert a fingertip. In such a case, it is difficult to gently push the upper end 47 of the skewer 3 inserted into the skewer insertion hole 12 downward with a finger and drop it into the accommodation space 5, but the upper end 47 does not enter the skewer insertion hole 12. After reaching, the skewer 3 can be dropped into the accommodating space 5 by gently flipping the upper end 47 downward with a finger.

  29, the upper edge 83 of the lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 is in the inward position from directly above the lower edge 82 of the groove bottom 43 of the lower edge 82 of the upper inclined skewer guide groove 15. When the lower skewer guide groove 17 is provided so as to be displaced, the lower skewer guide groove 17 is formed in the same size as when the through hole 26 is formed, and the insertion and dropping operation of the skewer 3 becomes easy. In this regard, when the skewer insertion hole 12 having the through hole 26 is used, the upper end 47 of the skewer 3 inserted into the skewer insertion hole 12 is fingered as described above without particularly increasing the size of the skewer insertion hole 12. If pushed gently downward, there is an advantage that the skewer 3 can be dropped into the accommodation space 5 by itself.

  In the container 6 constituting the skewer processing tool 1 according to the present invention, as long as the skewer 3 inserted through the skewer insertion hole 12 can be accommodated in the receiving space 5 in a fall state, the upper portion 9 is not always formed horizontally. For example, it may be formed in an inclined state as shown in FIGS. In addition, the shape of the container 6 including the shape of the upper portion 9 can be variously configured in consideration of the design.

  The present invention is by no means limited to those shown in the above-described embodiments, and it goes without saying that various design changes can be made within the scope of the claims. One example is as follows.

(1) In the case where the container 6 is formed by cutting bamboo into a half-cylinder shape, the cut portion can be set to about 40 to 70% of the diameter, for example. A portion of about 40 to 70% constitutes the container 6.

(2) One or a plurality of skewer insertion holes 12 are provided in the upper portion 9 of the container 6, and in the embodiment, two are provided on the left and right sides of the upper portion 9, but one However, the portion to be provided is not specified on the end side of the upper portion 9. Also, in the case of being provided on the left and right of the upper portion 9, for example, as shown in FIG. 34, the position may be shifted in the opposite direction in the width direction of the upper portion 9.

(3) When the skewer processing tool 1 is configured to include the skewer tray 7 that receives the used skewer, the skewer tray 7 has an open portion at the lower end of the container 6 as shown in FIG. You may form by attaching the baseplate 86 so that it may cover, or sticking film-like sheets 87, such as a wrap, so that this open part may be covered.

(4) The upper inclined skewer guide groove 15 and the lower inclined skewer guide groove 17 of the skewer insertion hole 12 are for allowing the skewer 3 to be inserted in an inclined state closer to horizontal. However, as long as such an object can be achieved, the upper and lower inclined skewer guide grooves 15 and 17 are not necessarily connected in a straight line.

(5) As shown in FIG. 3B, the support hole 20 is preferably formed while leaving the lower end portion 89 of the upper portion 9 of the container 6 slightly, but penetrated as shown in FIG. After the hole 90 is formed, the lower end 91 can be closed and formed by adhering a cover piece 93 such as an adhesive tape to the lower surface 92 of the upper portion 9.

  Alternatively, for example, as shown in FIG. 38, the upper surface portion 9 is provided with a support hole 20 in a penetrating state having a smaller diameter toward the lower end 95, and the end portion 19 of the skewer 3 so as not to protrude from the lower end 95 of the support hole 20. May be inserted to support the skewer 3 in an upright state.

  The support hole 20 may be provided in a slightly inclined state in addition to being formed in a vertical state. In this case, the skewered food 2 is supported in a slightly tilted state.

(6) The skewers used for skewered foods include not only bamboo skewers but also wooden and plastic skewers, depending on the food that the skewer is inserted into.

(7) The anti-rotation engaging portion 50 may be omitted if there is no fear that the skewer tray 7 rotates and falls in the container 6.

(8) The skewer processing tool 1 according to the present invention is basically used to store a used skewer, but may store a toothpick. Further, if the diameter of the skewer insertion hole is set to be relatively large, as shown in FIG. 39, the used disposable chopsticks 96 can be accommodated in the same manner as described above. The skewer 3 in which the portion 97 is formed wide can be accommodated in the same manner as described above.
