In particular, the packaged rice has elasticity in the holder structure, so it can be used for omelet rice and ochazuke.
In addition, since the packaged food can be handled like a bowl, it can be used as a nursing care product because it is easy for the sick and the caregiver to handle.

The perspective view which shows the holder for packaged food which concerns on this invention. The same, the morphological diagram which shows the holder for packaged food The same, the morphological diagram which shows the holder for packaged food The same, the morphological diagram which shows the holder for packaged food The same, the morphological diagram which shows the holder for packaged food The same, the morphological diagram which shows the holder for packaged food

Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the configuration of the present invention.
B. When the adhesive seal, which is the lid of the packaged food container (4), which has become hot on the packaged food holder (A) in FIG. 1, is peeled off, as shown in FIG. 2, the shape is symmetrical, so there is no directionality, and which side Since it can be inserted even from the inside, insert the tip of the brim (5) of the packaged food container (4) into the left and right groove guides (2') and (3') by slightly expanding it if it is narrow and slide it into the packaged food.

The figure which shows that it can be squeezed and eaten. Then, when the force of the hand is relaxed, it returns to the original shape.
D. FIG. 5 is an example in which the bottom surface (1) is not limited to a flat surface, and the curved bottom surface as in (a) is not stable when placed, so a hill (6) like a bowl is required.
Further, even if the bottom surface is flat, the hill (6) may be oval as shown in FIG. 6 so as not to affect the elasticity when the container is bent considerably as shown in FIG. A river-shaped non-slip may be provided as in (b) of.
Further, although the present invention is a holder for packaged foods, it is useful when used for each lunch box such as a side dish or a eel bowl lunch box taken home from a store.
