DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tableware storage basket for a tableware storage device for business use used in a service facility or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional tableware storage basket for a tableware storage device is formed from a stainless steel round bar-shaped wire in a wide-spaced lattice shape having a storage space for storing tableware. Tableware such as plates, bowls, etc. are stored vertically or stacked, and stored as it is or after holding the tableware using a stainless steel round bar-shaped wire with a holding lid assembled in a grid with a wide interval. Store in a storage, disinfection storage, etc., and store and sterilize.

[0003]

However, in the above-described tableware storage baskets for tableware storage devices, it is efficient to store a large number of stacked tableware. If the dishes are in close contact with each other and the number is small, they fall down sideways and pile up. There was a problem. Normally, disinfection is performed at 90 ° C for one hour,
If the dishes come into close contact with each other due to overlap or the like, heat may not pass between the dishes, and the temperature between the dishes may only reach about 50 ° C. At this temperature the bacteria do not die and remain on the dishes. For example, in the case of hemorrhagic E. coli O-157, 75 ° C.
Since it does not die unless it is longer than one minute, it is impossible to completely disinfect it by the conventional disinfection method. Further, in the related art, a device for separating tableware has been devised, but there is a disadvantage that it takes time and effort to install each tableware at a predetermined position when using the tableware.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and when a large number of dishes are stored, the stored dishes do not come into close contact with each other. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a basket for storing tableware in which the distance between the tablewares can be naturally maintained by storing the tableware without having to set each tableware one by one. It is intended to constitute a tableware storage basket consisting of a wall and a bottom surface arranged in a grid pattern with a wide space having a storage space for storing tableware by a stainless steel wire, and at appropriate intervals. The tray on which the tableware supporting member is formed can be stored in a tableware storage basket.

[0005]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. Reference numeral 1 denotes a tableware storage basket, which is made of a plurality of wires, for example, a round rod-shaped wire 2 made of stainless steel, and has four walls and a bottom surface arranged in a grid pattern with a large space so as to have a storage space 4 for storing tableware 3. Formed by Each wall surface and bottom surface may be integrally formed, or may be separately formed and assembled. The upper opening may be left as it is, but if necessary, a holding lid (not shown) made of the same material may be detachably attached. Further, it is desirable to provide a handle 5 and 5 for carrying the food unit housing cage 1 on both sides of the upper opening of the food unit housing cage 1.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a tray formed of a synthetic resin, metal, or the like. A number of grooves 7, 7,... Are formed in the bottom 62 in parallel or in a staggered manner. .. Are projected, and the through-hole 7 and the support portion 8 constitute a tableware support portion 9 . The groove 7 is preferably formed to have a length to which one end of the tableware 3 to be stored is fitted. However, the groove 7 may be formed over the entire width of the tableware storage basket 1. To support the narrow part or wire rod 14,
14 can be provided to extend over the grooves 7, 7,.... DOO <br/> number of support portions 10, 10 on the side wall 61 of the laser 6,
... are formed. The support portion 10 may be integrally extended from the support portion 8 as shown, or may be formed separately. The side wall 61 does not need to be as high as the tableware storage basket 1 and can be formed lower than the tableware 3. And side wall 6
1 may be formed by expanding outward or may be vertical. Furthermore,
A leg or base 63 may be provided below the bottom 62.
This helps the lower edge of the tableware 3 to protrude from the through hole 7 and to be stably supported.

Although the tableware supporting portion 9 is constituted by the through holes 7 and the supporting portions 8, in another embodiment, it can be constituted by the through holes 7 and the supporting portions 10. Also, a number of support grooves 11, 11,... Are formed in the side wall 61 of the tray 6 . The support groove 11 is not always necessary, and is provided appropriately according to the size of the tableware 3 to be stored. However, the tableware support 9 can also be formed by the support grooves 11, 11 of the side walls 61, 61 and the groove 7 therebetween.

It is recommended that hooks 12 and 12 are provided on the upper edge of the side wall of the tray 6 to lock the tableware storage basket 1 .

[0009]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS In use, a tray is stored in a tableware storage basket 1 in advance.
6 is stored and fixed. And the washed dishes 3,
When three,... Are put into the tableware storage basket 1 , the tableware 3,
3,... Are trays formed to fit the tableware 3
6 , one edge portion is inserted into the groove 7, and the tableware 3,
The edges of 3,... Are leaned against each other so as to be fitted into the support portions 8, and are arranged at intervals so that a gap 13 is formed. Also, after storing the dishes 3, 3, ... in the tray 6 ,
It can also be placed in the tableware storage basket 1 .

[0010] Then, if necessary, the presser lid, tableware 3,
After being covered from above and fixed to the tableware storage basket 1, it is stored in a tableware storage device, for example, a disinfection storage (not shown),
The dishes 3,3, ... are dried at a constant temperature and sterilized at the same time. At this time, the tableware 3, 3,... Is held by the gap 13, the warm air sufficiently passes through, and drying and disinfection are surely performed.

[0011]

As described above, according to the present invention, a tableware storage basket composed of a stainless steel wire rod and a wall-shaped bottom surface and a bottom surface arranged in a grid with a wide space having a storage space for storing tableware. And the trays having the tableware supporting portions formed at appropriate intervals are made freely storable in the tableware storage basket, so that when the tableware is stored in the tableware storage basket,
There is no need for cumbersome manual work such as arranging the dishes one by one, just by putting the dishes in the dish storage basket, the gaps are naturally formed between the dishes and securely locked. When stored in a storage or the like, warm air surely passes between the tableware, and drying and disinfection is reliably performed. In addition, this product can be used for dishwashing as well as storage and storage.
Further, in some cases, the tableware 3, 3,... Can be used while stored in a tray, which is convenient for washing, serving a meal, and the like.
