[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The conventional rice scooping machine for rice cookers using a suction cup has a drawback that the suction force tends to decrease because it is necessary to cover the standing rice scoop with another bag-shaped case containing water. .. In addition, a lid provided with a magnet and a hinge with a spring to cover the container requires an opening / closing operation to push the lid each time the lid is opened and closed, and there is a problem with a means for attaching the rice cooker. In addition, the stand-type one also has the problem that the attachment means to the rice cooker must be considered separately, and in addition to the two members that open and close to the left and right, the base that locks the hook-shaped engaging part. However, there is a drawback that the number of parts is increased and the cost is increased. In addition, commercially available products that are attached to a rice cooker by attracting a magnet have the drawbacks that the surface of the magnet is difficult to scratch or match the attachment surface, and the protrusion of the embedded part of the magnet becomes large. is there. Therefore, in the rice scooping stand for rice cookers, the body of the rice cooker can be easily attached to the rice cooker to make it strong, and the rice scoop can be accommodated vertically and covers the front and back surfaces of the rice cooker. There were issues to be solved such as easy opening and closing, keeping the number of parts to a minimum and making it highly durable.
