Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a bowl container for instant noodles, and is intended to provide a bowl container that allows instant noodles to be rehydrated easily.

When instant noodles, such as instant noodles, are sold, they are often dried and formed into square shapes.When eating them, place the square shaped instant noodles in a stirring container, etc., then pour boiling water over the noodles to rehydrate them. It was something to do.

However, in the case of the conventional ceramic stirring container 10, which has a substantially circular planar shape, the square instant noodles A are not completely contained in the stirring container and protrude to the top, resulting in hot water leaking out. Sometimes the hot water that hit the instant noodles flew out of the mixing container without covering the entire instant noodles.

In terms of the effectiveness of reconstitution, there were also drawbacks, such as the fact that the instant noodles were not fully immersed in hot water, so reconstitution took a long time (see Figure 4).

Therefore, it is necessary to fold the instant noodles in half beforehand and place them in a container, or to turn the instant noodles over during rehydration so that they are completely immersed in boiling water. However, the speed was impaired.

Therefore, in this invention, we improved the above-mentioned conventional stirring vessel,
The present invention provides a container suitable for instant noodles, which has a circular container made entirely of synthetic porcelain, and the four corners of the instant noodles can be placed on the inner surface midway through the side wall. It is characterized by forming recessed portions respectively.

Next, embodiments of this invention will be illustrated below with reference to the drawings.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a stirring container made of synthetic resin such as foamed polystyrene sheet, which has a narrow side wall 2 that slopes gently downward from the opening of the upper blade, and feet projecting downward along the outer periphery. The attached bottom part 3 and the like are integrally formed, and the overall shape is approximately the same as that of a conventional container.

Reference numeral 4 denotes concave portions which are a feature of this invention, and four concave portions are formed at four positions in the middle of the inner surface of the side wall 2, and the back surface of the concave portions 4 protrudes outward.

The concave portions 4 correspond to the shapes of the four corners of the outer shape of the rectangular instant noodles A, and the four corners of the instant noodles A can be placed in the four concave portions 4. The formation position of the concave portion 4 is determined so that the noodles A are completely housed.

However, if the concave part 4 is provided at the lower part of the side wall 2, it will be difficult to form the concave part 4 and the appearance will not be good, so an appropriate position should be selected (see especially FIG. 2).

As the material for forming the above-mentioned stirring vessel 1, in addition to the foamed polystyrene sheet, foamed sheets made of various resins such as polyethylene and polypropylene are excellent in terms of lightness, heat insulation, etc. A multilayer sheet with a non-foamed synthetic resin film laminated on the inner or outer surface can also be used, and a sheet made of a simple non-foamed synthetic resin can also be used.

The above-mentioned foamed sheets can be easily and efficiently manufactured by IK forming the outer container using sheet forming such as vacuum forming, but they can also be manufactured by various known molding methods such as injection molding (especially in the case of non-foamed synthetic resin). Of course, it is also possible to do so.

According to the outer circumferential container for instant noodles of this invention constructed as described above, when putting the instant noodles A in the square shape, the instant noodles A are placed in the four recesses 4 formed in the middle of the circular side wall 2. By storing the four corners, instant noodles A can be placed in outer container 1.
It can be stored securely inside, making it easier to pour boiling water back on.

That is, since the instant noodles A are placed horizontally and completely stored inside the container, it is easy to work without the hot water poured from above leaking to the outside.

Also, instant noodles A are completely immersed in boiling water in the first step, so there is no need to move them while rehydrating them.

In particular, since the instant noodles A are placed in a floating state from the bottom 3 in the concave portions 4 supporting the four corners, hot water also enters the underside of the instant noodles A, and the hot water is quickly rehydrated.

When eating ramen noodles or the like after rehydrating the container in hot water, the recessed portion 4 does not get in the way at all and can be used in the same way as a conventional outer container without any problems.

Therefore, it is possible to provide an outer container suitable for instant noodles with a simple structure, and it also has various practical values, such as being able to provide a unique design effect by protruding the back surface of the recessed portion to the outside. It is excellent.
