Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a strainer, and particularly to a strainer having a robust structure in which the base body and the edge body are attached.

A conventional strainer of this type has a strainer formed by wrapping a metal wire around the periphery of a strainer base and inserting an edge forming member having a U-shaped cross section on the outside, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 51-8344N. However, in this type of installation, the semicircular part of the wire is crimped to the edge forming member, so even if the periphery of the base body is wrapped around the entire circumference of the edge forming member, the holding area will be halved. This results in the disadvantage that the strength is weakened.

This invention aims to increase the holding area and provide a robust colander.

Therefore, this invention was made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and in a colander in which the upper rim of the colander base is held by the rim, a lower vertical part is formed inside the horizontal part formed on the upper surface of the rim, A horizontal portion protruding inward is formed at the lower end of this vertical portion, and a folded portion is further formed on the outer side of the lower end of this horizontal portion toward the upper surface side, and an upper portion of the base body between this folded portion and the horizontal portion is formed. It is designed to hug the rim of the mouth.

Next, the structure and operation of this invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, for example, a ring-shaped rim 2 is attached to the upper edge of a full-mesh colander base 1 having a notch 1a, and a rim 2a is attached to the periphery of the colander base notch 1a. An opening 3 is formed on one side of the colander a, and a gripping part 4 is formed on the ring-shaped edge 2 of the opening 3, and the opening 3 side of the gripping base 1 and ring-shaped edge 2 is narrowed and It is formed shallowly and gradually widens and deepens as it goes to the opposite side.

The edges 2, 2a are preferably made of metal or plastic.

The structure of attaching the colander base 1 and the ring-shaped edge 2 is as shown in FIG.
b. A vertical part 5c is provided vertically on the inside, a U-shaped holding part 5d is provided at the lower end of this vertical part 5c to form the upper edge 5, and a U-shaped lower edge is attached to this holding part 5d. The body 6 is crimped to form a horizontal portion 5e projecting inward, and a folded portion 6a is further formed on the outer side of the lower end of the horizontal portion 5e toward the upper surface side.

The upper edge 1b of the base body 1 located between the folded portion 6a and the horizontal portion 5e is held.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3B, the U-shaped edge body 2a is crimped to the periphery of the base body notch 1a, and both ends of this U-shaped edge body 2a are also clamped together with the base body 1 as shown in FIGS. 3A and 4. It is held between the folding part 6a and the holding part 5d.

As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, there are several strips of metal 7 on the outer surface of the gripping base 1.
As shown in FIG. 3A, insert both ends of this metal bar 7 into the vertical part 5b of the upper edge 5 and bend it along the inner wall surface 7a.
do.

This metal bar 7 is appropriately bent to form a footrest 7b.

Reference numeral 8 designates drain holes provided at the front and rear of the edge body 2 as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3A.

Therefore, in order to use the colander a of this invention, the grip part 4, which is the ring-shaped edge 2 of the opening 3, must be grasped in one hand and the rice washing operation performed with the other hand.The colander a is very stable. This results in efficient and careful washing.

Also, by tilting the colander a slightly, the wide and deep colander base 1 can be effectively used to wash a large amount of rice at once.

Moreover, the washed rice can be smoothly discharged or flowed out from the opening 3 without the need to open the colander a, making it extremely convenient to handle.

In this manner, this invention is to hold the upper edge 1b of the frame 1 which is located between the horizontal part 5e and the folded part 6a when attaching the strainer base 1 and the rim 2. The entire surface of the strainer is held between the horizontal portion 5e and the folded portion 6a, and the holding area for strength can be increased, and a strainer that is more robust than the conventional strainer can be provided.

Furthermore, since the upper rim 1b of the colander base 1 is held in a flat shape, it can be easily crimped, and the upper rim 1b can be easily pressed.
There is no risk of dirt or the like clogging between b and the rim 2, and a sanitary colander can be provided.
