Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] [Industrial application field]

This invention relates to a structure for attaching a bag containing disposable chopsticks, spoons, etc. to containers for lunch boxes and other foodstuffs.

[Conventional technology]

Containers containing lunch boxes and other food items (hereinafter referred to as
When attaching a bag containing one or an appropriate combination of disposable chopsticks, spoons, fork toothpicks, etc. to a "food container" (hereinafter referred to as a "bag containing disposable chopsticks"), conventionally, the food container was wound up. It is known that a bag containing disposable chopsticks is inserted into the gap between a string and a food container, or a food container and a bag containing disposable chopsticks are hung together with a rubber band. However, with the above configuration, in the former case, the bag containing disposable chopsticks is simply inserted into the gap between the tightened string and the food container and hooked, so if the gap is wide, it may easily fall out, or the bag must be pushed into the gap to attach it. It is a complicated work as it is done frequently. In addition, in the latter case, it is necessary to use a separate rubber band to attach the chopsticks, which is complicated, and the contact area is small because the elastic force of the rubber band is used to hold the chopsticks. It has the disadvantage that it can easily come off. In particular, the complexity of the above-mentioned attachment work becomes a serious problem when attaching disposable chopstick bags to food containers being conveyed on a line, and the faster the conveyance speed is, the greater the problem becomes. This has become a problem. Furthermore, in the lid of a folded lunch container disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 48-46985, it is known that the side plate has a window hole in which disposable chopsticks are fitted inside. However, in this case as well, attaching disposable chopsticks is a time-consuming task.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

This device was newly devised as a result of intensive research in view of the above-mentioned problems, and the problem is that it depends on the bonding force of the adhesive layer provided on either the disposable chopsticks bag or the food container. To easily and surely attach a bag containing disposable chopsticks to a food container without adhering adhesive to the disposable chopsticks.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, this invention provides an adhesive layer made of double-sided adhesive tape on either the outer surface of a container for lunch boxes or other food products or the outer surface of a bag containing disposable chopsticks, spoons, etc. In addition, sheet-like reinforcing parts that are impermeable to the adhesive are formed on the outer surfaces of the disposable chopstick bags and containers that are to be adhered to the double-sided adhesive tape, and on the outer surfaces of the lunch boxes and other food containers, Since the configuration is such that the outer surface of the bag containing disposable chopsticks, spoons, etc. can be joined, the bag containing disposable chopsticks can be joined to the food container with one touch by the bonding force of the adhesive layer.

【Example】

Below, preferred embodiments of this invention will be described based on the drawings. 1 to 3 show an embodiment in which an adhesive layer is formed on the outer surface of a bag containing disposable chopsticks. In the figure, 1 is a bag containing disposable chopsticks having an adhesive layer 2. This disposable chopsticks bag can be made of paper, vinyl, paper laminated with film, etc., as long as it stores disposable chopsticks, etc., and the shape of the bag may be one that seals the disposable chopsticks, etc., or one that is open at one end. It does not matter whether the grip side of disposable chopsticks or the like is visible, the edges are sheeted and formed into a bag shape, or the ends are formed by folding paper. In the illustrated example, the adhesive layer 2 then consists of a double-sided adhesive tape. That is, by pasting one side 21 of the double-sided adhesive tape to a predetermined location on the outer surface of the bag 1 containing disposable chopsticks, the other side 22 forms the adhesive layer 2. In this case, if a release paper 3 is pasted on the other side 22 of the double-sided adhesive tape constituting the adhesive layer 2, the food container 5 can be stored without being adhered to anything until it is attached to the food container 5. It is preferable that it can be done. In addition, there are non-joint parts on both sides of the double-sided adhesive tape 2.
In other words, it is preferable to provide the portions 23 and 24 to which no adhesive is applied because the disposable chopsticks-containing bag 1 joined to the food container 5 can be easily removed during use. In addition to the above-mentioned configuration, there are other ways to remove the disposable chopsticks bag 1 from the food container 5 during use, such as applying the adhesive with a gap instead of applying it all over the surface, or applying the adhesive on the adhesive layer. This can be achieved by using an adhesive that is easy to attach and detach. In this invention, the adhesive layer 2 is not limited to such a double-sided adhesive tape, but may of course be one in which an adhesive is applied to a predetermined location on the outer surface of the bag containing disposable chopsticks. In addition, for example, when the bag 1 containing disposable chopsticks is made of thin paper, or when the food container 5 has pores, the adhesive layer 2 may be used to insert disposable chopsticks into the bag 1. Depending on the adhesive used to adhere to the bag 1, there is a risk that the adhesive may penetrate into the disposable chopstick bag 1 or the food container 5. Therefore, a reinforcing portion 4 is formed to prevent the adhesive from penetrating into the bonded abutting portion of the adhesive layer. In the case of the bag 1 containing disposable chopsticks, this reinforcing part 4 may be integrally formed at a location corresponding to the area where the adhesive layer 2 is formed, or it may be heat-sealed to the outer surface or inner surface. It may be provided in the bag 1 containing disposable chopsticks by other appropriate means. If the adhesive layer 2 is formed on the reinforcing portion 4 or on the outer surface, the reinforcing portion 4 will prevent the adhesive from penetrating, and the disposable chopsticks etc. stored in the disposable chopstick bag will be It is also hygienic as the adhesive does not penetrate. Further, a reinforcing portion (not shown) is also formed at the joint portion of the food container 5 with the bag 1 containing disposable chopsticks. This prevents the adhesive from penetrating into the food stored in the food container 5, which is suitable for hygiene. FIG. 4 shows an embodiment in which the adhesive layer 2 is provided on the food container 5. Here, the food container 5 is a storage container for a normal lunch box (made of paper, wood, styrofoam, or something else), or a storage container for foods that are sold or used together with disposable chopsticks, etc. says. This adhesive layer 2 can be applied to the outer surface of the food container 5 regardless of its location, such as the top, side, or back surface, and can be applied to the food container 5 itself, regardless of whether the food container 5 is in a packaged state. do not have. In this embodiment, a structure is shown in which an adhesive layer 2 is formed on a lid 51 of a food container 5 in the shape of a lunch box. The specific structure of the adhesive layer 2 is the same as the structure of the adhesive layer 2 when formed in the bag 1 containing disposable chopsticks shown in the above embodiment, so the explanation will be omitted. Further, the structure of the reinforcing portion 4 is also the same as that in the case where the food container 5 and disposable chopsticks bag 1 in the previous embodiment are replaced, so the explanation will be omitted.

[Effect of the idea]

In this way, with this invention, if the bag containing disposable chopsticks has an adhesive layer formed on it, the bag containing disposable chopsticks can be reliably joined with one touch by abutting and pressing the food container at a desired position. . Additionally, if an adhesive layer is formed on the food container, the bag containing the disposable chopsticks can be brought into contact with and pressed against the adhesive layer location of the food container to reliably join with one touch. . At this time, since the adhesive is prevented from penetrating by the reinforcing portion, there is no risk that the adhesive will seep into disposable chopsticks or foodstuffs, which is sanitary. Further, since the opposing reinforcing portions serve as a guide for the adhesion position, the joining operation is further facilitated. Therefore, the bags containing disposable chopsticks can be easily and reliably attached to food containers moving on a line where the conveyance speed is high, so productivity can be improved and it is also sanitary, which is extremely beneficial.
