Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to partitions for containers.

(Prior art) This type of technology includes Utility Model Publication No. 1841-1841 and Special Publication No. 1841.
Although partitions have been installed inside the container, as seen in No. 26718, conventional partitions are limited to the extent that they can be moved within the container, and nothing more. However, if the container is a lunch box or vegetable holder, it is not enough to divide the inside into two. Furthermore, as shown in Utility Model Application No. 62-101726, trident-shaped or cross-shaped partitions that can be opened and closed are also known.
Because each partition can only be opened and closed at different angles, it is difficult to maintain a specific opening angle, and if the contents contain liquid, the liquid may pass through the partition and enter adjacent compartments. There is a drawback.

(Technical Problem) The present invention was devised in view of the above points, and its purpose is to partition the container into three or more compartments, and to be able to adjust the width and narrowness of the partitions, and to arrange each partition within the inner periphery of the container. The purpose is to provide a partition for containers that can be fixed and stabilized.

(Technical Means) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention includes an auxiliary piece 3 whose tip touches the inner surface of the container and further partitions the inside of the container, which is movable from side to side via a hinge 4 on a partition board 2 that partitions the inside of the container 1. provided at the outer end of the substrate 2 and/or
Alternatively, contact pieces 18, 8 are formed at the outer ends of the auxiliary pieces 3 in a substantially T-shape in plan view, which can make surface contact with the inner surface of the container body 1 and stabilize the partition. be.

(Function of the invention) In the invention, the inside of the container body 1 is fixed and partitioned by a partition board 2, and an auxiliary piece 3 is rotatable from side to side via a hinge 4 at the center of the partition board 2, for example. Since the partition board 2 is placed at an appropriate location on the container body 1, the auxiliary piece 3 can be swung to any left or right position, and the area can be divided equally or wide or narrow on both sides depending on the angle. There will be 2 sections.

The auxiliary piece 3 and the partition board 2 formed separately
Contact pieces 8 and 18 are integrally formed on the outer ends of the container body 1, respectively, so that the partition substrate 2, which is formed separately, is elastically attached to the inner periphery of the container body 1. The auxiliary piece 3 is fixed by making surface contact, and the auxiliary piece 3 is also kept at a constant angle by making surface contact with the inner periphery of the container, making it stable. Furthermore, since these contact pieces 8 and 18 also exhibit a sealing effect, the function of the partition is enhanced without allowing liquid to pass through.

(Example) To explain from the illustrated example, FIGS. 1 to 3 are examples in which the partition substrate 2 is molded integrally with the container body 1, and this container body 1 is inserted into the outer container 10 as an inner container. When the lid 11 is placed on the outer container 10, it is formed into a shallow cylindrical shape that is sealed by the hooks 12 and 13 on both sides of the lid, and is used, for example, as a vegetable container. The partition board 2 is provided in the diametrical direction of the container body 1, and has a protrusion 14 having a shaft hole 6 in the center, and a downward shaft 5 formed on the top protrusion 15 of the auxiliary piece 3 formed separately. It is fitted into the shaft hole 6 to form a hinge 4, and moved from there in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 1 to change the width of the compartments on both sides. The lower side 3a of the auxiliary piece 3 is in contact with the bottom of the container body 1, the upper side 3b has a height that does not affect lid closing, the inner side 3c runs along the protrusion 14, and the outer side 3d projects on both sides. It has a contact piece 8. This contact piece 8 is in surface and elastic contact with the inner surface of the container, and serves both to stabilize the partition and to provide a seal.

Figures 4 and 5 show examples in which the partition is formed separately from the vessel body 1, and the base plate 2 and auxiliary piece 3 of the partition are integrally formed by the thin wall portion 7 that constitutes the hinge 4, and the vessel body A stabilizing piece 16 is provided on the lower side 2a of the partition board 2 to stabilize the partition board 2 when it is fitted to the partition board 1, and a notch 17 is provided at the approximate center of the board on the side where the auxiliary piece 3 is provided to avoid contact with the auxiliary piece 3. Furthermore, the contact pieces 18, 18 at both ends of the board and the stabilizing piece 16 are made continuous. The partition is formed by molding a synthetic resin having good elasticity and durability against bending hinges, as in the previous embodiment. Although an example is shown in which one auxiliary piece 3 is provided only on one side, it is easy to provide a plurality of auxiliary pieces 3 and divide the area into four or more locations. 20 in each figure is lid 1
A latching edge provided at a position on the outer periphery of the outer container on which the latching pieces 12 and 13 of No. 1 hang, 21 a latching portion of each latching piece 12 and 13, and 22 interposed between the abutting surfaces of the lid 11 and the container 10. The fitting hole of the seal member 23 and 24 indicate the mounting shaft of the hook piece.

(Effect of the invention) Therefore, according to the present invention, the inside of the container 1 can be divided into at least three parts or even more, so that the container 1 can be provided with sufficient storage compartments for normal use. The auxiliary piece 3 provided on the partition board 2 via the hinge 4 can be moved continuously to adjust the width of the compartment, making it very easy to use. In particular, the partition according to the present invention is integrally equipped with contact pieces 8 and 18 that can make surface contact with the inner surface of the vessel body 1, and is remarkable in that it significantly increases stability and prevents the transfer of liquid. be effective.
