DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A cooking container with seasonings according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, a seasoning-equipped cooking product container 10 includes a popcorn cup (cooking product container) 11, a partition lid (lid body) 12, and a seasoning bag (seasoning container) 13. .

The popcorn cup 11 has an inner diameter of the bottom portion 1
It is formed by a paper cup having a bottomed tubular body, which is a container having an upper opening 11b having a diameter larger than that of 1a and a larger opening than the bottom, and a cone (material) 14 is formed on the inner bottom 11c of the cup. It is stored in a fixed state together with the solidified cooking oil 15. The volume of the corn 14 increases by heating and becomes a popcorn (cooked product) 16 (see FIG. 2). Also, the corn 14 has popcorn 16
A slight amount of salt is added as an undertone.

The partition lid 12 is formed by a paper disk having an outer diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the inner bottom portion 11c of the cup, and covers the cone 14 to cover the popcorn cup 11
It is located inside. On the front surface (upper opening 11b side) 12a of the partition lid 12, the seasoning bag 1
3 is attached by being attached by, for example, an adhesive tape 17.

The seasoning bag 13 is formed of a thin resin sheet and is used for seasoning the popcorn 16, for example, butter flavor, chili sauce flavor, curry flavor,
One type of seasoning 18 such as barbecue or salt is stored. By sprinkling the seasoning 18 on the popcorn 16, the popcorn 16 is seasoned with each flavor.

The popcorn cup 11 is attached to a popcorn vending machine (not shown). The popcorn vending machine has a cup storage part and a microwave oven part inside, and individually pops out the popcorn cups 11 stacked and stored in the cup storage part and moves them to the microwave oven part for heating. By cooking, popcorn 16 is automatically completed.

The popcorn vending machine has a popcorn cup 1 to which the seasoning 18 of his choice is attached.
A selection button for each seasoning 18 is provided so that 1 can be selected. Next, the operation of the cooked food container with seasoning will be described. First, the cooked food container 10 with seasonings is mounted in the cup storage portion of the popcorn vending machine. The popcorn cups 11 to be mounted are stacked by repeating one of the popcorn cups 11 into which the bottom portion 11a of the other popcorn cup 11 is inserted.

At this time, the popcorn cup 1 having entered
Bottom 11a and popcorn cup 1
Since the partition lid 12 is interposed between the cones 1 of 1, the contact between the cone 14 and the bottom portion 11a is avoided,
It is possible to prevent dust and the like from adhering to the cone 14 and oil from adhering to the bottom portion 11a. Then, the purchaser of the popcorn 16 performs a purchase operation on the popcorn vending machine. At this time, the purchaser selects the popcorn cup 11 with the seasoning 18 of his / her preference using the selection button.

By performing the purchase operation, in the popcorn vending machine, the popcorn cups 11 to which the seasoning 18 according to the selected taste is attached are individually taken out and moved to the microwave oven section. At the same time as being placed on the turntable, the upper opening 11b is pressed by the cup holder and cooked. The popcorn cup 11 moved to the microwave oven has a cone 14 fixed to the inner bottom portion 11c of the cup and a partition lid 12 for covering the cone 14.
And the seasoning bag 1 attached to the surface 12a of the partition lid 12.
3 and 3 are stored (see FIG. 1).

By cooking, popcorn cup 11
The inner cone 14 begins to expand individually as the solidified cooking oil 15 is melted, and the cone 14 pops up greatly to make the cup bottom 1
As it rises from 1c toward the upper opening 11b, popcorn 16 is completed in one popcorn cup 11 as shown in FIG. At this time, the partition lid 12 is pushed up toward the upper opening 11b as the cone 14 rises, and further pushes up the cup retainer to be positioned at the top of the popcorn 16 full of the popcorn cup 11. At the same time, the seasoning bag 13 is exposed on the surface of the partition lid 12 (see FIG. 2). The partition lid 1
2 prevents the expanding cone 14 from making direct contact with the cup retainer.

Next, the purchaser takes out the popcorn cup 11 filled with the finished popcorn 16 from the popcorn vending machine, and then removes the seasoning bag 13 from the partition lid 12 on the popcorn 16.
At this time, if popcorn 16 is made by cooking,
Since the seasoning bag 13 is pushed up to the upper part of the popcorn cup 11 together with the partition lid 12, the seasoning bag 13 can be easily taken out. Further, by attaching the seasoning bag 13 to the surface 12a of the partition lid 12 (on the side of the upper opening 11b), the popcorn 16 can be formed and the seasoning bag 1 can be formed.

It may be 12b. Further, although there is a possibility of burning during cooking, the outer surface of the bottom portion 11a of the popcorn cup 11 may be formed by, for example, imparting heat resistance to the seasoning bag 13.

When the adhering position of the seasoning bag 13 is on the outer surface of the bottom portion 11a of the popcorn cup 11, the seasoning bag 13 does not get in the way and the uncooked popcorn cups 11 can be smoothly separated from each other, and the popcorn can be smoothly separated. The cups 11 can be loaded in the popcorn vending machine in a state where they are stacked on each other as in the conventional case, and the handling can be performed as in the conventional case.

As a seasoning container for containing the seasoning 18, the seasoning bag 1 formed of a thin resin sheet is used.
The container is not limited to 3, and may be, for example, a container formed of a slightly hard resinous plate. In the container 19 shown in FIG. 3, a part of the resinous plate-like body 19a is bulged to form a storage portion 19b as an internal space, and the resinous plate-like body 19a should be bent (see the dotted line in FIG. 3). The extraction part 19c which communicates with the storage part 19b and forms a closed space is cut off by
Can be opened.

As a result, the container 19 can be easily opened, and the plurality of storage portions 19b and the extraction portion 19c are integrally formed so that a plurality of kinds of seasonings 18 can be prepared at the same time.
