Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a sushi and rice ball manufacturing tool that can easily contain ingredients.

(Prior art) Traditionally, seaweed sushi rolls are made by spreading seaweed on a bamboo curtain, etc., spreading the rice evenly on top of the seaweed, then arranging the ingredients on top of this, and rolling it up so that the seaweed is exposed on the outside surface. are doing.

Also, I try to hold each rice ball one by one.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the above manufacturing method, the shape, size, amount of rice used, etc. may change for those who are not skilled in manufacturing techniques.

Also, since it is time-consuming, it is not suitable for making a lot of sushi. Furthermore, it is difficult to place the ingredients in the center.

On the other hand, even if it is suitable for rice balls, it is not suitable for making many rice balls, and it is difficult to put the ingredients in the center.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a tool for making sushi and rice balls that can easily form sushi and rice balls of the same shape with ingredients placed in the center.

(Means for Solving the Problem) This invention has the following configuration to achieve the above object.

That is, there is a mold with an open top and closed longitudinal ends with side plates, into which seaweed is spread as necessary and rice and ingredients are placed inside, and the rice placed in the mold is pressed against the back. In a sushi and saw-making tool having a press lid formed by pressing, when the press lid is turned over and fitted into the opening of the mold body, from the center in the width direction on the front side of the press lid and over the entire length in the longitudinal direction, It is characterized by providing a linear protrusion that also serves as a handle to form a concave groove for storing ingredients in the rice that is placed halfway inside the mold.

(effect) Next, the operation of the present invention will be described.

Place rice inside the mold (spread seaweed if necessary),
Turn the lid over and press the handle on the surface against the rice to make a groove. Put the ingredients into this groove, then add rice and press the rice with the back of the press lid to form sushi or rice balls.

(Embodiments) Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail based on the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a plan view of the mold body, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the mold body, FIG. 3 is a plan view of the lid, and FIG. 4 is a side view of the lid.

In FIG. 1, 10 is a mold.

The mold body 10 has wall plates 12a and 12b facing each other to form a V-shaped recess 18 on the inner surface, and an opening 10 on the upper surface.
I'm doing a.

The side plates 14a and 14b are fixed to the ends of the mold body 10 in the handle direction. Moreover, the side plate 14a,
The lower end of the mold body 14b is grounded, and the mold body 10 is supported so that the opening 10a of the mold body 10 faces upward.

20 is a push lid. This press lid 20 is a mold body 1
It is formed in a size that can close the opening 10a of 0. Further, the back surface of the push lid 20 is a flat plane. On the other hand, a linear and convex handle 22 that is long in the longitudinal direction and extends over the entire length of the push lid 20 projects from the center of the surface of the push lid 20 .

The handle 22 is fitted or fixed to the push lid 20. In addition, the side surface of the push lid 20 in the lateral direction may be formed into a tapered surface so as to be in close contact with the side plates 14a and 14b forming the mold body 10.

Next, how to use it will be explained.

The seaweed is brought into close contact with the inner wall surface of the mold body 10. Leave one or both ends of the seaweed extending upward.

A suitable amount of rice is put into the recess 18 of the mold body 10.

Next, turn the surface of the push lid 20 downward and push the rice using the handle 22 on the surface. Then, a groove for accommodating the ingredients is formed in the rice. Then, put the ingredients into this groove.

Furthermore, rice is filled up to the opening 10a of the mold 10, and the rice is pressed with the back surface of the press lid 20.

Next, the remaining seaweed is wrapped around the top of the rice and further pressed with the press lid 20.

Thereafter, the mold 10 is inverted, the sushi is taken out, and the sushi is cut into a predetermined size.

In the above example, seaweed was spread, but rice balls can be made without it.

Note that by providing the wall plates 12a and 12b with equally spaced convex portions, the size to be cut can be determined in advance.

Further, although the mold body 10 is V-shaped in this embodiment, the width of the opening 10a may be wider than the bottom in order to cut out the finished sushi or the like.

Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and it goes without saying that many modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.

(Effects of the invention) Since the present invention is configured as described above, it achieves the following effects.

Since the handle can form grooves that are straight and have the same depth in the rice placed in the mold, the ingredients can be neatly placed in the rice.

For this reason, even when a long piece of sushi or rice ball is cut into rounds, the ingredients appear in the same position and the finished product is beautiful.

Therefore, anyone can make sushi and rice balls of excellent quality.

Also, since it is easy to handle, you can quickly make sushi and rice balls.
