Abstract

PURPOSE:To drop droplet adhering on a cover to a recessed part and to prevent the droplet from wetting a body or a floor by disposing the recessed part opened to a container side in the vicinity of a hinge base. CONSTITUTION:On a hinge base 9 substantially of a box-form disposed on the upper face of the back part of an inlet 1, an opening groove part 9a and an engaging groove part 9b are connected to form the section of L shape and form a L shape groove 10. Recessed parts 12 disposed at both the sides of the hinge base 9 form inclined faces lowered toward to a container side 4. Droplet W adhering to a cover 7 is dropped as shown by an arrow A by a rib 11 along the face of the cover 7 as shown by broken lines or dropped to the L shape groove 10 of the hinge base 9 by getting over the rib 11, further, dropped to the recessed part 12 disposed in the vicinity thereof from this L shape groove 10 and condensed to the container 4.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a hinge device for a pot or the like having a lid for opening and closing an opening of a container.

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional hinge device for a pot or the like of this type has a structure as shown in FIG. 4, as shown in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Application No. 60-27829.

That is, by rotatably locking the lid body 51 having the lid cover 50 on the lower surface to the lock stand 63 provided at the rear of the spout 62, the lid body 61 which opens and closes the opening of the container 54 can be opened and closed. It constituted a hinge device.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional configuration, when the lid body 51 is opened, water droplets adhering to the lid cover 60 travel along the lid cover 50 and drip onto the hinge base 63, and then the spout 52 is opened. This has the disadvantage that the floor gets wet through the body 65 on which it is placed.

Furthermore, water droplets travel along the metal body 55.

Another drawback was that the body 66 was prone to rust.

The present invention is intended to solve these problems.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a hinge device for a pot, etc., in which water droplets attached to a lid cover do not wet the body or floor.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a recess that opens toward the container in the vicinity of the spindle stand.

Effect According to the above structure, when the lid is opened, water droplets adhering to the lid cover run down the lid cover and drip into the recess provided on the hinge stand or in the vicinity, and the opening on the container side of this recess allows the water droplets to adhere to the lid cover. Since water is returned to the interior, it is possible to reliably prevent water droplets from wetting the body and floor.

EXAMPLE 9 An example of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In Figures 1 to 3, 1 is a spout made of heat-resistant synthetic resin such as polypropylene resin;
This spout 1 is placed on the upper end of a body 2 made of a printed steel plate, and a container 4 for storing water is secured to the inner step 11L via a backing 3. A base 6 is provided at the lower end of the body 2, and the base 5 and the bottom surface of the container 4 are screwed together to form a main body.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a lid body located above the spout 1 to open and close the opening of the container 4, and the lid body 6 has a lid cover 7 whose bottom surface is made of Nutenrenu.
A rotary shaft 8 is installed at the rear of the lid 6.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a substantially box-shaped hinge base provided on the upper surface of the rear part of the spout 1. The hinge base 9 has an opening groove 9a and a locking groove 9b connected in a cross-sectional shape, forming an L-shaped groove. 1o is formed. The rotating shaft 8 of the lid 6 is inserted into the L-shaped groove 10 through the opening groove 9a and positioned in the locking groove 9b.

The lid body 6 is pivoted so that it can be opened and closed.

In FIG. 2, 12 is a recess provided on both sides of the hinge stand 9, and this recess 12 forms an inclined surface that becomes lower toward the container 4 side. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, when the lid body 6 is opened, water droplets W adhering to the lid cover 7 run along the surface of the lid cover 7 as shown by the broken line, and are directed to the lip 11 by arrows. Some of it drips like a lump, but some of it with momentum goes over the lip 11 and drips into the L-shaped groove 1o of the hinge base 9, and then drips into the L-shaped groove 1o of the hinge base 9.
The water drips into the recess 12 provided in the vicinity of this point, and is eventually condensed into the container 4 through the opening of the recess 12 on the container side.

Further, even if the water droplets that flowed down from the lid cover 7 were to directly fall in the vicinity of the hinge stand 9.

Water droplets can be condensed into the container 4 through the recess 12 having an opening on the container side.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, a recess is provided near the hinge stand, and this recess has an opening on the container side.
Water droplets adhering to the lid cover that covers the bottom surface of the lid body drip down the lid cover and into the recess.

The opening of the recess allows water to be returned to the inside of the container, and as a result, it is possible to reliably prevent water droplets from dripping onto the body or the floor surface and making them wet or dirty.
