BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sheet for preserving fruits and vegetables suitable for use in storing vegetables and fruits in a refrigerator for home use or business, a fruit and vegetable preservation article using the preserving sheet, and a method for preserving fruits and vegetables using the preserving sheet.

In order to maintain the freshness of vegetables such as lettuce, spinach, cabbage, cucumber, or fruits and vegetables containing relatively large amounts of water such as strawberries and peaches, they are stored at low temperature to suppress respiration and to suppress evaporation of moisture. It is necessary. When the moisture of these vegetables and fruits evaporates, the freshness of the vegetables and fruits is lowered, and not only the flavor and texture are reduced, but also the nutrients such as vitamin C are reduced.

The vegetable storage room of the home refrigerator used to prevent the drying of vegetables and fruits is set at a temperature of about 0 to 10 ° C. so as to suppress the respiratory action, and has a structure capable of suppressing the decrease in humidity to some extent. . However, since the vegetable storage room of the home refrigerator is frequently opened, the temperature rises every time it is opened, and also the moisture in the refrigerator is released out of the refrigerator each time it is opened, and the humidity in the refrigerator is also likely to decrease. For this reason, if vegetables or fruits are stored for 3 days or more, or more than 10 days or more, for 10 days or more, moisture evaporates to dryness, and wrinkles or discoloration appear to reduce freshness and decrease nutrients such as vitamin C. .

In addition, a storage bag for storing fruits and vegetables in the home vegetable storage room is also commercially available. This storage bag is formed from resin films, such as polyethylene, and sealing means, such as a resin fastener, is provided in the opening part. When vegetables and fruits are put in a storage bag and the opening is sealed and stored in the vegetable storage room, moisture evaporated from the vegetables and fruits can be enclosed in the storage bag, and drying of the vegetables and fruits can be suppressed.

However, if the vegetables or fruits are stored in a storage bag made of a resin film, moisture evaporated from the vegetables or fruits condenses on the inner surface of the storage bag, and water droplets adhere to the inner surface of the storage bag. It is easy to get in direct contact with fruits. When moisture comes in contact with vegetables or fruits, the surface of the vegetables or fruits is deteriorated and discolored. Also, bacteria are easily proliferated in the areas where moisture is attached, which causes corruption.

Patent Document 1 below discloses a fruit and vegetable freshness maintaining packaging bag. The packaging bag is formed with a micropore having a pore diameter of 20 to 100 µm and a micropore having a pore diameter of 100 to 700 µm in a bag made of a polymer film. An object of the present invention is to prevent the decrease in freshness by setting the respiratory action of the fruits and vegetables in a state in which the fruits and vegetables are enclosed in the packaging bag during distribution.

Next, Patent Document 2 discloses a drip absorbent mat in which a porous resin film having fine pores is laminated on an absorbent sheet formed of airlaid pulp. This drip absorption mat is used under a blood-drip food such as meat or fish and is used for absorbing drips and preventing the food from discoloring in contact with the mat.

[Patent Document 1] Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2004-242521

[Patent Document 2] Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2002-302182

The packaging bag described in Patent Document 1 is for optimizing the respiratory action of vegetables and the like when storing or transporting fruits and vegetables at room temperature in the distribution process, and does not assume that vegetables or the like are stored at low temperatures in the vegetable storage room of the refrigerator. . Even if vegetables and the like are temporarily stored in the packaging bag and stored in the refrigerator, moisture on the inner surface of the bag is in direct contact with the vegetables.

Patent Document 2 describes a method of effectively absorbing drips from meat or fish, and preventing the drips from absorbing the meat or fish after they are absorbed, and storing the vegetables or fruits in a storage bag and storing them in the vegetable storage room of the refrigerator. It is not intended.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and can prevent evaporation of water when preserving vegetables and fruits at low temperature, while preventing deterioration and decay due to adhesion of water, An object of the present invention is to provide a fruit and vegetable preservation article using the sheet and a fruit and vegetable preservation method using the sheet.

The fruit or vegetable preservation sheet of the first invention has a liquid absorbing layer and a resin film layer provided on a contact surface of a vegetable or fruit, which is to be preserved, and the storage surface is stored together with the object to be preserved, with the contact surface facing the object to be preserved. It is characterized in that it is stored in the refrigerator to be used therein.

When the storage sheet of the present invention is stored in a storage bag together with the preserved vegetable or fruit and stored at a low temperature, the storage bag can prevent drying of the vegetables or fruits, and the storage bag can be evaporated from the vegetables or fruits and stored. Condensation on the inner surface and moisture along the inner surface of the storage bag can be maintained in the liquid absorbing layer. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the promotion of deterioration, discoloration, and decay due to the adhesion of moisture to vegetables and fruits.

The sheet for fruit and vegetable preservation according to the second aspect of the present invention has a liquid absorbing layer and a resin film layer provided on a contact surface of a vegetable or fruit, which is a preserved object, and is formed in a band shape, and a separation portion that can be separated for each predetermined area includes a liquid absorbing layer and a resin film layer. It is formed to penetrate both sides, and it is wound or rolled in roll shape, and is stored in the package. It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

Since the storage sheet is rolled or folded and stored in the package, the storage sheet can be separated from the separating section when needed by the user, and can be stored and used together with vegetables or fruits in the storage bag.

In the first and second inventions, the liquid absorbing layer preferably contains 70% by mass or more of fibers having a process moisture content of 1.0% or less.

When the liquid absorbing layer is composed mainly of fibers having a process moisture content of 1.0% or less, the liquid absorbing layer does not introduce a large amount of water vapor (vaporized water) evaporated from vegetables or fruits in the storage bag, and thus is preserved by the presence of the liquid absorbing layer. The humidity in the bag can be prevented from being excessively lowered, and drying of vegetables and fruits can be suppressed for a long time.

Therefore, a preferred third sheet for fruit and vegetable preservation according to the present invention has a liquid absorbing layer and a resin film layer provided on a contact surface of a vegetable or fruit to be preserved, and the liquid absorbing layer contains 70% by mass or more of fibers having a process moisture content of 1.0% or less. It is characterized by.

Also in the second and third inventions, the contact surface is stored in a storage bag together with the object to be preserved and used in the state of facing the vegetable or fruit as the object to be preserved.

In each of the above inventions, it is preferable that a plurality of liquid permeation holes penetrate from the contact surface toward the liquid absorbing layer.

When the liquid permeation hole is formed in the resin film layer, it is condensed on the surface of the vegetable or fruit, and the moisture along the surface can be introduced into and absorbed into the liquid absorbing layer. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the moisture from remaining in the contact portion between the fruits and vegetables and the storage sheet.

Furthermore, the fruit or vegetable preservation article of the present invention is characterized in that the sheet for fruit or vegetable preservation according to any one of the above is combined with a bag for preserving the fruit or vegetable product made of synthetic resin.

Next, the storage method of the vegetable or fruit of this invention uses the preservation sheet which has a liquid absorption layer and the resin film layer provided in the contact surface of the vegetable or fruit which is a to-be-preserved thing, and makes the said contact surface of the said preservation sheet the to-be-preserved thing. In a state in which the object to be stored and the storage sheet are formed of a synthetic resin and stored in a storage bag having a sealing means, and stored in a refrigerator having a temperature set to 0 to 10 ° C.

Also in the preservation method, the resin film layer preferably has a plurality of liquid permeation holes penetrating from the contact surface toward the liquid absorbing layer, and the liquid absorbing layer contains 70% by mass or more of fibers having a process moisture content of 1.0% or less. It is desirable to do it.

In the above storage method, water may be added to the liquid absorbing layer and then stored in the storage bag.

When water is supplied to the liquid absorbing layer, moisture can be supplied from the liquid absorbing layer into the storage bag when the vegetable absorbs the moisture and preserves the freshness, for example, spinach and the like, thereby maintaining the freshness of the vegetable.

Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing the entire structure of a first embodiment of a fruit and vegetable preservation article 1 used when storing fruits and vegetables such as vegetables and fruits in a refrigerator, and Fig. 2 is a roll body on which a sheet 13 for fruit and vegetable preservation is wound ( 10 is a perspective view illustrating the fruit and vegetable storage sheet 13, FIG. 4 is an enlarged sectional view of the fruit and vegetable storage bag 20, and FIG. 5 is a plan view showing the fruit and vegetable storage method. It is also.

In the fruit or vegetable preservation article 1 shown in FIG. 1, the first package 2 and the second package 3 are combined. The first package 2 and the second package 3 are both packaging boxes made of thick paper. The roll body 10 which wound the sheet 13 for fruits and vegetables storage shown in FIG. 2 is accommodated in the inside of the 1st package body 2, and the fruits and vegetables storage object shown in FIG. 4 is stored in the inside of the 2nd package body 3; The pocket 20 is accommodated.

The 1st package body 2 and the 2nd package body 3 may be formed as an integral box, and each package box manufactured separately may be integrated by adhesive etc. Alternatively, the first package 2 and the second package 3 may be separated from each other, and the first package 2 and the second package 3 may be sold as a set at the beginning.

The greengrocery preservation sheet 13 is used to be stored in the greengrocery preservation bag 20 together with vegetables or fruits. Therefore, a combination of a sales form in which the first package 2 and the second package 3 are sold as a set and a sales form in which only the first package 2 is sold alone are used together, so that the consumer purchases the product. You may choose to make a choice.

The first package 2 has a hollow hexahedron inside, and has a bottom face 2a, a ceiling face 2b, a front face 2c and a back face 2d, and two left and right end faces 2e and 2f. In addition, the cutout line 2g is formed from the ceiling surface 2b to the front surface 2c, and the folding part 2h is formed in the ceiling surface 2b. By cutting the thick paper constituting the packaging box at the cut line 2g, the lid 4 is separated, and the lid 4 can be opened and closed with the hinge 2h as a hinge.

The roll body 10 shown in FIG. 2 is accommodated in the 1st package body 2 inside. In this roll body 10, the strip | belt-shaped sheet 11 was wound up. The strip | belt-shaped sheet 11 is formed with the separation part 12 at the predetermined distance in the longitudinal direction. This separating portion 12 is a perforation formed at intervals between short cutting lines penetrating the sheet 11, and the cutting lines are formed across the sheet 11. Individual fruits and vegetables by taking out the strip | belt-shaped sheet 11 from the inside of the 1st package body 2, and isolate | separating in the separating part 12 part with the said cover 4 of the 1st package body 2 open. The storage sheet 13 can be extracted. The individual fruits and vegetables storage sheet 13 is, for example, 180 mm x 210 mm, but is not limited to this dimension.

As shown in the enlarged cross-sectional view of FIG. 3, the fruit or vegetable preservation sheet 13 has a liquid absorbing layer 14 and a resin film layer 15 laminated only on one surface of the liquid absorbing layer 14. As the roll body 10 shown in FIG. 2, the resin film layer 15 is wound in the state toward the inner peripheral side.

The liquid absorbing layer 14 is condensed on the inner surface of the bag 20 for storing fruits and vegetables to absorb water along the inner surface of the bag, and the liquid absorbing layer 14 is a nonwoven fabric. As the fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric, natural fibers such as pulp fibers and regenerated cellulose fibers such as rayon fibers can be used, and the liquid absorbing layer 14 can be made of paper composed of pulp fibers instead of the nonwoven fabric.

The liquid absorbing layer 14 can absorb and maintain moisture along the inner surface of the fruit and vegetable storage bag 20, and does not excessively absorb water vapor (vaporized water) in the fruit and vegetable storage bag 20, and has a relatively high humidity in the bag. It is necessary to be able to keep it in a state. For this reason, when the liquid absorption layer 14 is formed from a natural fiber, a rayon fiber, etc., it is preferable to make the unit weight thin as about 5-100 g / m <^2> , More preferably, it is 10-50 g / m. ²

Alternatively, the liquid absorbing layer 14 is preferably formed only of fibers having a process moisture content of 1.0% or less. Or it is preferable that 70 mass% or more of fibers with a process moisture content of 1.0% or less are contained, and less than 30 mass% is formed from a natural fiber or regenerated cellulose fiber. In a fiber structure such as a nonwoven fabric, the property of the fiber contained at 30% by mass or more is reflected as the property of the fiber structure. Therefore, when the content of the natural fibers or the regenerated cellulose fibers is less than 30%, the characteristic of the liquid absorbing layer 14 is that the process moisture content is almost 1.0% or less. In this case, the unit weight of the liquid absorbing layer 14 is not particularly limited because the liquid absorbing layer 14 becomes difficult to adsorb water vapor in the bag 20 for storing the fruits and vegetables. It is preferable that a unit weight is 5 g / m <^2> or more because it can absorb and hold. The upper limit is not particularly limited but is about 100 g / m ² . In addition, the thickness of the liquid absorbing layer 14 is about 0.3 to 1.8 mm.

The process moisture content is defined in JISL-1030, and this process water content is almost equivalent to the ratio of the moisture mass of the fiber to the moisture mass of the fiber attached to the fiber under the environment of 65% relative humidity at 20 ° C. . Process moisture content is 8.5% cotton, 11% rayon, 12% margarine, 4.5% nylon, 2.0% acrylic, 1% polyurethane, 0.4% polyester, 0% polyethylene, 0% polypropylene, Polyvinyl chloride is 0% and vinylidene is 0%.

Therefore, the liquid absorbing layer 14 is formed of only hydrophobic synthetic resin fibers such as polyester fibers, polypropylene fibers, polyethylene fibers, composite synthetic fibers of polyester-polyethylene, composite synthetic fibers of polypropylene-polyethylene, or the like. It is preferable to contain 70 mass% or more of resin fibers. Moreover, as these synthetic resin fibers, those coated with a hydrophilic treatment agent such as a surfactant on the surface, or those in which a hydrophilic treatment agent is beaten and put therein are preferably used. As such, the liquid absorbing layer 14 is formed of a nonwoven fabric formed of only a fiber having a process moisture content of 1.0% or less, preferably a synthetic resin fiber having a process moisture content of 0%, or a nonwoven fabric containing 70% by mass or more of the synthetic resin fibers. Forming the absorber layer 14 can prevent the humidity in the bag from lowering without absorbing the water vapor in the bag 20 for keeping the fruits and vegetables, and at the same time, the moisture flowing through the inner surface of the bag can be maintained between the fibers in the nonwoven fabric. This prevents water from coming into direct contact with vegetables or fruits.

When the nonwoven fabric for forming the liquid absorbing layer 14 is formed of synthetic resin fibers, the nonwoven fabric is an air-through nonwoven fabric in which the fibers are fusion bonded together with hot air, for example, a core sheath composite synthetic fiber in which the core portion is polyester and the sheath portion is polyethylene. Is used. It is also possible to use other forms such as spunbond nonwovens, meltblown nonwovens and pointbond nonwovens.

The resin film layer 15 is superposed on the liquid absorbing layer 14 and adhered to the liquid absorbing layer 14 through a hot melt adhesive. Alternatively, the resin film layer 15 may be partially thermally fused to the liquid absorbing layer 14 to be integrated. The sheet 13 for greengrocers preservation is used as a contact surface where the surface on which the resin film layer 15 is formed directly touches vegetables or fruits.

The resin film layer 15 has many liquid permeation holes 15a open. The liquid permeation hole 15a is formed by a so-called perforation method in which a resin film is heated to be softened, and a portion corresponding to the hole is sucked by air to be opened. The opening area of the liquid permeation hole 15a is the liquid absorption layer 14. It gradually narrows toward (), and the peripheral wall 15b which surrounds the liquid permeation hole 15a protrudes toward the liquid absorption layer 14. Since the opening area of the liquid permeation hole 15a gradually narrows toward the liquid absorbing layer 14, it is easy to prevent the moisture retained in the liquid absorbing layer 14 from spreading on the surface of the resin film layer 15. For example, the opening diameter (opening diameter at the surface where the wall 15b does not protrude) of the liquid permeation hole 15a is 0.5 mm, and the opening area ratio is 80%.

This greengrocer-preserving sheet 13 absorbs moisture along the inner surface of the greengrocer-preserving bag 20 to the back surface of the opposite side to the resin film layer 15 or the end face of the sheet. Used to prevent direct attachment to the surface. And the resin film layer 15 exhibits the function which isolate | separates the water absorbed by the liquid absorption layer 14 from a vegetable or a fruit. For this reason, the resin film layer 15 does not necessarily have to have a large opening area ratio of the liquid permeation hole 15a, for example, the opening area ratio may be 50% or less, and furthermore, in the resin film layer 15, the liquid permeation hole ( 15a) is not open at all, and may be processed uneven to reduce the contact area of vegetables and fruits.

However, if the liquid permeation hole 15a is formed in the resin film layer 15, when the water condensed on the surface of the vegetable or fruit flows to the sheet 13 for storing the fruits or vegetables along the surface of the vegetable or fruit, the moisture absorbing layer It can absorb in (14), and it becomes easier to prevent moisture from remaining on the vegetable or fruit surface.

The second package 3 shown in FIG. 1 is an openable and openable box that can open the ceiling surface 3a, for example. Inside the second package 3, a bag for storing fruits and vegetables shown in FIG. 20) is folded and stored.

The fruit and vegetable storage bag 20 is formed of a polyethylene resin film (resin sheet). In the state in which two rectangular resin films were superimposed, the resin film is heat-sealed along the bottom side 21a and the both sides 21b and 21b, and the seal line 22 is formed. The opening part 23 is formed in the upper side, and the resin film is not fused in this opening part 23. The opening 23 is provided with a resin fastener 24 serving as a sealing means. The resin fastener 24 is fixed with a male fastener having a set of convex portions on one inner surface of a facing resin film, and a female fastener having a set of concave portions is fixed on the other inner surface to fit a male fastener and a female fastener. The inside of the pocket can be sealed.

The size of the bag 20 for storing fruits and vegetables in this embodiment is 270 mm x 280 mm when it is made flat as shown in FIG. As described above, when the size of the fruit and vegetable storage sheet 13 is 180 mm × 210 mm, the area ratio of the fruit and vegetable storage sheet to the inner surface of the fruit and vegetable storage bag 20 is 25%. In this invention, it is preferable that this ratio is 15% or more. Within this range, the bottom surface of the preserved object directly touches the inner surface of the greengrocer preservation bag 20 when the fruit or vegetable preservation sheet 13 is laid under the vegetables or fruits as the preservation material and stored in the greengrocer preservation bag 20. The area can be minimized. Although the upper limit is 100%, the ratio is preferably 70% or less, and more preferably 50% or less in order to facilitate insertion of the fruit and vegetable storage sheet 13 into the fruit and vegetable storage bag 20.

Next, the preservation method using the said fruits and vegetables preservation sheet 13 and the fruits and vegetables preservation bag 20 is demonstrated. 5 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a storage method.

5 illustrates a case in which the preserved material 30 is lettuce or cabbage. However, the object to be preserved 30 may be other fruits and vegetables, and it is suitable that moisture is easily evaporated while containing a lot of moisture. For example, the object to be preserved is fruit such as vegetables such as spinach and cucumber, strawberry and peach.

The fruit and vegetable storage bag 20 is extracted from the 2nd package body 3 shown in FIG. Further, the cover 4 of the first package 2 is opened, the rolled sheet 11 is taken out from the inside, cut at the separating section 12, and the rectangular fruit and vegetable preservation sheet 13 is extracted.

As shown in Fig. 5, the resin fastener 24 of the fruit and vegetable preservation bag 20 is released, the opening 23 is opened, and the fruit and vegetable is placed on the bottom of the bag (the part facing the direction of gravity at the time of preservation). The preservation sheet 13 is laid and the to-be-stored object 30 is installed on it. At this time, the liquid absorbing layer 14 faces the inner surface of the bag 20 for storing the fruits and vegetables, and the sheet 13 for storing the fruits and vegetables is placed in the direction in which the resin film layer 15 faces the object to be preserved 30. And the resin fastener 24 is closed and the opening part 23 is sealed, and it preserve | stores in 0-10 degreeC or 4-8 degreeC low temperature environment. In the case of home use, keep it in the vegetable storage room of the refrigerator.

Under the low temperature, respiration of the preserved object 30, which is a vegetable or fruit, is suppressed, so that it becomes a state close to the so-called housekeeping, and the freshness can be maintained longer than when stored at room temperature. In addition, since the object to be preserved 30 is sealed in the bag 20 for storing fruits and vegetables, water vapor (vaporized water) evaporated from the object to be stored 30 does not fly to the outside, and the humidity in the bag is almost 100%. Because it can be maintained in a high state of the can prevent the drying of the object to be retained (30) can maintain a fresh state that retained moisture for a long time.

Water vapor in the fruit and vegetable storage bag 20 condenses on the inner surface of the bag to form water droplets, which may be collected, and water may flow downward along the inner surface of the bag. Since the liquid absorbing layer 14 faces the inner surface of the bag of the fruit and vegetable storage sheet 13, the moisture is absorbed and retained in the liquid absorbing layer 14 from the end or the rear surface of the fruit and vegetable storage sheet 13. In addition, when the water droplets condensed on the surface of the object 30 descends along the surface of the object 30, moisture is accumulated at the contact portion between the object 30 and the sheet 13 for storing fruits and vegetables. Is absorbed by the liquid absorbing layer 14 through the liquid permeation hole 15a.

Therefore, moisture can be prevented from directly adhering to the surface of the object to be retained 30 (particularly, the surface of the downward facing portion), and the surface of the object to be retained 30 can be prevented from being discolored and discolored. It is also possible to suppress propagation of various bacteria by the adhesion of.

In the above storage method, water may be added to the liquid absorbing layer 14 and then stored in the storage bag 20. For example, green leafy vegetables having a large mouth, such as spinach, have the property of absorbing moisture even at low temperatures to maintain freshness. When such vegetables are preserved in advance, moisture is applied to the liquid absorbing layer 14 to supply the vaporized water from the liquid absorbing layer 14 to the storage bag 20, and the freshness of the vegetables can be maintained longer. .

6 is a cross-sectional view showing the second embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, the 1st package body 102 is a hexahedron formed from the thick paper, and the upper surface is the cover 104. As shown in FIG. A catching member 106 is formed at the tip of the lid 104 so that the catching member 106 is caught inside the front surface 107. Then, the lid 104 can be rotated upward by the hinge portion 105 of the rear surface 108 as a hinge, so that the upper portion of the first package body 102 can be opened.

In the inside of the 1st package body 102, the strip | belt-shaped sheet | seat 11 shown in FIG. 2 is accommodated in the state which overlapped alternately by the separation | separation part 12 as a boundary, and is accommodated. In the first package body 102, the cover 104 is opened, the strip-shaped sheet 11 is taken out to the outside, and separated from the separating section 12, whereby the individual fruits and vegetables preservation sheet 13 can be extracted. have.
