Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Industrial application field" The present invention relates to a food storage container.

"Prior Art" Conventionally, foods are stored by placing the foods in an ordinary container and storing them in a refrigerator or the like.

"Problems to be solved by the invention" When storing food in a conventional container, remember the storable date of the food, or write the date on paper etc. and attach it to the container Record Had to leave. However, when the storable date is forgotten or the record is lost, it is necessary to check the spoilage of the food, and if the confirmation is difficult, it is necessary to dispose of it properly, and the process of keeping the record is troublesome.

According to the present invention, a food storage container having a date display function is provided so that the storable date of food can be recorded by a simple operation, and the record display device is not lost.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The container main body 1 in which the first peripheral wall 3 is erected from the peripheral edge of the bottom wall 2 and the lid 5 detachably fitted to the upper part of the container main body. 6 Date number from 1 to 31 on the outer circumference of the top 8
... and display these numbers in close proximity to each other
31 small holes 9 are formed, and the lid body is flexible along the outer peripheral surface of the second peripheral wall 7 extending from the outer periphery of the top plate 6.
The one end of the strip-shaped plate is fixed and the other end is connected by a breaker 11 so as to surround the strip-shaped plate, and a date display knob button 13 is attached to the end of the strip-shaped plate on the breaker side. A shaft portion (14) is vertically provided so as to be detachably fitted into each of the small holes from the lower surface.

[Operation] After the food is put into the container body 1, the lid 5 is fitted, and one end of the strip-shaped plate 10 having the left and right ends fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the second peripheral wall 7 of the lid is attached to the breaker. Breaking 11 makes it movable with respect to the lid. Then, by holding the knob button 13 which the movable end has, and detachably fitting the shaft portion 14 hung from the lower surface of the button into an arbitrary small hole 9, the food can be stored by the date number close to the small hole. Indicate possible dates. The work of breaking the breaker is a work performed by the consumer only at the first use of the container, and in the case of work such as food refilling from the next time, the shaft part fitted in the small hole is detached and the work is performed again. Fit the small hole close to the date number and correct the date when the food in the new container can be stored.

[Example] In the container body 1, the first peripheral wall 3 is erected from the peripheral edge of the bottom wall 2, and the outward flange 4 is attached to the upper part of the peripheral wall.

In the lid 5, the lower end of the second peripheral wall 7 extending from the peripheral edge of the top plate 6 is brought into contact with the upper surface of the outward flange, and the inner surface of the peripheral wall is detachably fitted to the upper outer surface of the first peripheral wall. There is. Date numbers 1 to 31 on the outer circumference of the top plate above ...
Is displayed, and 31 small holes 9 are bored on the inner circumference close to these numbers. The date number may be displayed by the protrusion or the perforation of the lid 5. A flexible or strip-shaped plate (10) is provided along the outer peripheral surface of the second peripheral wall by fixing one end of the strip-shaped plate and connecting the other end through a breaker (11). A tongue-shaped handle 12 for removing the lid 5 is projected from the second peripheral wall portion located between both ends thereof. A date display knob button 13 is attached to the upper part of the end of the strip plate on the side connected through the breaker, and the small hole 9 ...
A shaft portion (14) which can be detachably fitted therein is provided vertically.

Taking the above as the first embodiment, the top plate 6 is made into a shallow dish by recessing the top plate inner periphery 17 from the top plate outer periphery 15 through the small step 16 as in the second embodiment shown in FIG. The numeral 8 ... Is displayed on the outer circumference of the top plate and the small holes 9 ... Are bored on the inner circumference of the top plate, so that even if the upper end of the knob button 13 is fitted with the shaft portion 14 in the small hole 9, it is located above the outer circumference of the top wall. It may be provided so as not to project, and the food storage containers may be formed so that they can be stacked together with the strip plate 10 being made flexible.

The container body and the lid may be integrally formed of synthetic resin or the like.

[Advantages of the Invention] Since the present invention has the above-mentioned configuration, after the food to be stored is put in the container body 1 and the lid 5 is detachably fitted, the shaft portion is inserted into the small hole 9 formed in the lid top plate 6. By appropriately fitting 14 and bringing the knob button attached to the upper end of the shaft portion close to one of the date numbers 8 ... Displayed on the outer periphery of the top surface of the lid top plate 6, it is possible to indicate by the proximity. Since it is possible to record the storable date of food in the container by a simple operation, it is not necessary to record the due date on paper etc. and attach it to the container. There is no fear that it will not be possible to confirm the presence or absence of spoilage of the food in the container due to the loss of such items. Also, the knob button 13 and the shaft portion 14
Since it is connected to the second peripheral wall via the strip plate 10, there is no risk of loss.

In addition, the inner circumference 17 of the top plate is recessed to form the lid top plate 6 into a shallow dish,
Even when the small hole 9 and the shaft portion 14 are fitted together, the knob button 13
By providing the upper end so as not to protrude beyond the outer periphery of the top plate and making the strip plate 10 flexible, the container of the present invention can be provided in a stackable manner.
