【Example】

 The food packaging container of the present invention comprises a container body 1, a middle plate 3 and a lid 4. The container body 1, the inner plate 3 and the lid 4 are made of synthetic resin. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the container body 1 is formed in a substantially circular container shape when viewed from above. A flange 10 projecting outward is provided at the upper end of the container body 1 so as to extend over the entire circumference, and a step portion 2 is provided at a position one step lower than the flange 10 in the upper part of the container body 1 over the entire circumference. It's set up. The vertical portion 11 between the flange 10 and the step portion 2 is provided with a locking projection 12 at an appropriate position in the circumferential direction, and a fitting recess 13 is provided below the step portion 2 over the entire circumference. is there. A pair of handles 5 are integrally provided on the flange 10 of the container body 1 so as to project outward. The handle 5 is provided at a position symmetrical to the 180 ° rotation in the circumferential direction. At the portion where the handle 5 is located, a recessed portion 14 extending downward from the step portion 2 is provided. The recessed portion 14 is for draining water vapor or the like of the contents stored in the container body 1. In addition, the upper surface of the handle 5 is provided with a recess 7 corresponding to the recessed portion 14, the position of which is the lowest. The inclined surface 8 is flush with the upper surface.

A mounting edge 15 is provided around the entire periphery of the inner plate 3 so as to project to the outer periphery, and a fitting portion 16 is provided below the mounting edge 15 over the entire periphery. There is. A pair of removal operation pieces 6 are formed on the outer periphery of the middle plate 3 so as to project outward. The pair of removal operation pieces 6 are provided at positions 180 degrees rotationally symmetrical. The inner plate 3 is arranged so as to close the upper surface opening of the container body 1, and when the mounting edge 15 is mounted on the step part 2, the fitting part 16 is fitted in the fitting recess 13. .. At this time, the dismounting operation piece 6 is arranged so as to overlap the central portion of the recess 7 on the handle 5.

A mounting edge 17 is provided on the periphery of the lid 4 so as to project over the entire circumference, and a fitting portion 18 having a substantially U-shaped cross section is formed on the entire circumference on the inner peripheral side of the mounting edge 17. On the outer periphery of the lower end of the fitting portion 18, which is recessed, a locking projection 19 is provided over the entire circumference. Reinforcing ribs 20 are provided at appropriate places on the lid body 4. The lid 4 is arranged on the tray 3 so as to close the upper opening of the container body 1, the mounting edge 17 is placed on the flange 10, and the fitting portion 18 is fitted on the step portion 2. .. At this time, the locking projection 12 and the locking projection 19 are locked and the lid 4 is fixed. In this way, the food packaging container is assembled as shown in FIG.

The thus-assembled food packaging container is used by putting different contents in the container body 1 and the inner plate 3, and when eating food, it is heated in a microwave oven or the like. When eating food, the lid 4 is removed, the inner plate 3 is removed, and the contents of the inner plate 3 and the contents in the container body 1 are mixed. When removing the lid 4 to remove the inner plate 3, rotate the inner plate 3 as shown by the arrow in Fig. 4 (a) by pressing the pair of removal operation pieces 6 with the fingers of both hands in the state of Fig. 4 (a). Add force to force it. Then, the removal operation piece 6 gradually rises due to the inclination of the inclined surface 8 and the inner plate 3 also rises. In this state, the removal operation piece 6 is picked up and the inner plate 3 is lifted.

[0010]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, the present invention provides a pair of removal operation pieces on the outer periphery of the inner plate so as to correspond to the above-mentioned handles, and the removal operation pieces are overlapped with the recesses provided on the top surface of the handles, and the recesses are formed in these recesses. There is an inclined surface that is flush with both sides from the center of the handle so that it is flush with the upper surface of the handle. When removing the inner plate after removing the lid, use both fingers with both hands. When you press the removal operation piece on the handle of the, and apply force to rotate the inner plate, the removal operation piece floats up on the inclined surface and the inner plate floats up.Pick up the removal operation piece and raise the middle plate up. It can be lifted, and the inner plate can be easily removed on the top for easy handling.In addition, when pressing the removal operation piece with your finger to rotate the inner plate, inclined surfaces are provided on both sides. Since there is either left or right direction One in which easier to further handling can be removed lifted even if the rotation.
