Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide an underlay which is laid in a assortment container to prevent movement of a bundle of dried noodles such as some noodles and which has a cushioning effect against external impact. [Structure] A film-shaped single sheet is formed by plastic molding in a concavo-convex shape, and includes a large number of horizontal elongated shelves 3c, a plurality of horizontal ribs 3a, and vertical ribs 3b. The upper surface of each shelf 3c has several locking protrusions 3d, 3e, 3f, 3g. The height of each locking projection is smaller on both sides in the width direction than on the central side. Each locking protrusion bites into the noodles to prevent the noodles from moving. Each rib acts as a cushion.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an underlay for an assorted container of dry noodles such as somen noodles and buckwheat noodles, and in particular, a container for dozens of bundled noodles obtained by bundling dozens of single noodle yarns (= 1 noodle) with a tightening band. It relates to a dedicated underlay configured to be laid under a bundle of noodles when it is packed in.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the noodle industry, different numbers of bundled noodles are often placed in fixed-size assorted containers. For example, in the case of somen noodles, 20 to 23 bundled noodles are stored in one container. In this case, if 23 bundles of noodles are stored, the storage density will be high, and as a result, each bundle of noodles will be prevented from moving within the container during transportation. Since the packing density becomes coarse, each noodle bundle is easy to move inside the container. When such movement occurs, the noodle single yarn may be broken. Further, not only during transportation but also when cooking in a cafeteria or a general home, it is easier to handle when the noodles are stable in the container.

Therefore, it is necessary to prevent the bundle noodles from easily moving in the assortment container even if the storage density is somewhat rough.

In addition to the above, a structure that is strong against an impact on an external container is desired.

Since the underlay that has been generally used in the past is merely a flat sheet-shaped paper pad, the above problem cannot be solved at all.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is a novel structure that effectively blocks the movement of bundle noodles in the assortment container and produces an effective cushioning action against an external impact. The purpose is to provide an underlay exclusively for assorted containers.

[0007]

[Means, actions, effects for solving problems]

 In order to solve the above problems, according to the present invention, an underlay for a noodle assortment container having the following configuration is provided.

That is, the underlay is made of a film-shaped single sheet made of plastic in a concavo-convex shape, and has a large number of horizontal elongated shelves extending parallel to each other in the lateral width direction and adjacent shelves. A number of horizontal grooves or ribs that connect the parts and project downward in a U-shaped cross section and extend in the vertical direction to divide each shelf and each horizontal rib, and in the same way as the horizontal ribs. , A plurality of vertical grooves or vertical ribs protruding downward in a U-shaped cross section. Further, on the upper surface of each shelf, there are several locking protrusions along the width direction and in regions other than the central portion, and the height of each locking protrusion is on both sides in the width direction. Is characterized in that it has a smaller size than that of the central part.

Each of the locking projections is usually a triangular projection having a ridge line along the extending direction of the shelf. Further, three vertical ribs are usually formed at three positions on both sides in the width direction and in the center.

The underlay of the above construction is placed at the bottom in an assortment container whose dimensions fit exactly. Then, bundle noodles of the number of shelves or a number close to this are arranged along each shelves. Each bundle of noodles is tight at the center where it is bundled with a tightening band, but is more uneven as it goes to both sides. Therefore, the high-height locking protrusions on both sides in the width direction can easily dig into the both sides of the loose noodles between the single noodles. On the other hand, since the heights of the locking protrusions on the inner sides of the both sides are gradually reduced, the noodles bite into the noodles as the degree of deviation from the both sides toward the tightening band decreases. That is, according to the present invention, the noodles do not float up by the locking protrusions, and moreover, the locking protrusions surely bite into the noodles according to their height dimension, so that the noodles inside the container Can prevent movement. As a result, breakage of the bundle noodles is unlikely to occur.

Further, according to the present invention, since a large number of horizontal ribs and several vertical ribs are formed in a U-shaped cross section, the material of the underlay is a film-like plastic material having an extremely thin thickness. Also, each of these ribs ensures sufficient rigidity of the underlay. In addition, each of these ribs has a cushioning effect, which is very effective against external impact.

Further, according to the underlay of the above structure, harmful substances such as formalin and moisture in the bond for plate adhesion impregnated in the bottom plate of the assortment container (usually made of plywood such as plywood) are effective. It is possible to prevent the deterioration of noodles and the generation of mold by blocking the heat.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 shows the entire underlay 3. This underlay 3 is formed by plastic-molding a sheet of sheet in the shape of an uneven surface. This underlay 3 connects a large number of horizontal elongated shelves 3c extending parallel to each other in the width direction and the adjacent shelves 3c, and also a plurality of lateral groove forks protruding downward in a U-shaped cross section. Is a horizontal rib 3a, and extends vertically to divide the shelves 3c and the horizontal ribs 3a, and like the horizontal rib 3a, three vertical groove forks protruding downward in a U-shaped cross section are formed. It has vertical ribs 3b and. Further, the upper surface of each shelf 3c has several locking projections 3d, 3e, 3f, 3g along the width direction and in regions other than the central portion thereof.

Two of the three vertical ribs 3b are formed on both sides in the width direction of the underlay, while the remaining one is formed in the center in the width direction. Therefore, each shelf is divided into three parts by three vertical ribs 3b. The locking protrusions formed on each shelf are line-symmetrical with respect to the vertical rib in the center. Each locking projection has a different height, and the height of each locking projection is smaller on both sides in the width direction than on the central side. . This state is well shown in FIG. 3 (enlarged cross-sectional view of the state in which the underlayment 3 is placed in the stuffing container 2 and the bundle noodles 1 is placed thereon). One locking protrusion 3d on the outside of the vertical ribs 3b on both sides is the highest, and the three locking protrusions 3e, 3f, 3g between the vertical ribs on both sides and the central vertical rib are gradually lowered. ing. Further, each locking protrusion 3d, 3e, 3f, 3g is a triangular protrusion having a ridge line along the extending direction of the shelf 3c as shown in FIG. 2 (a cross-sectional view similar to FIG. 3). I am configuring. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the underlay 3 having the above configuration is laid on the bottom of the assortment container 2. Then, as shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of bundle noodles 1 are densely arranged on it. The central part of the noodle soup 1 is bound by a band 1b, and the part of the band 1b is located just above the central vertical rib 3b of the underlay 3. The respective locking projections 3d to 3g of the underlay 3 cut into or cut into the noodle single yarns 1a constituting the bundled noodles 1. Therefore, each of the noodle single yarns 1 is positionally fixed by these locking protrusions 3d to 3g. The horizontal ribs 3a and the vertical ribs 3b increase the rigidity of the entire underlay and at the same time provide an effective cushioning action.
