Description

Structure of lid for kim-chi vessel

The present invention relates to a lid structure of a kimchi container for storing kimchi, and more specifically, to remove the chemical components of the methyl system such as methyl mercaptin, trimethylamine, which is the main component of the kimchi odor while the kimchi is stored in the kimchi container. It relates to the lid structure of the kimchi container to minimize the smell of kimchi in the process of opening and closing the lid of the kimchi container to take out the kimchi.

In general, dim vegetables produced by adding various seasonings to vegetables, such as cabbage and radish, have been developed among foods in countries where rice is a staple food.

Among these dim vegetables, especially kimchi is a fermented food that has been used for a long time, and in the cold winter, a large amount of kimchi was stored and eaten little by little.

In the past when there was no refrigerator, it was quite difficult to store kimchi in the hot summer season, but with the advent of the refrigerator, it was possible to store kimchi for a longer time in the summer season. Kimchi cellar (or kimchi refrigerator) was developed to keep fresh, and the kimchi cellar is matured according to the change of season and user's preference, and then it is kept at an appropriate temperature to preserve the taste of ripe kimchi for a long time. It is configured to do so.

When the kimchi is to be stored in the refrigerator or the kimchi storage, the kimchi is put in a separate kimchi container and then stored in the storage room.

1 is a perspective view for explaining the structure of a conventional general kimchi container.

Kimchi barrel which is widely used in the prior art is made of a plastic material of synthetic resin, as shown in Figure 1 is formed in a rectangular box shape with an upper portion as shown in the receiving container (2) having a receiving space therein and It is composed of a lid (4) which is fitted to the upper portion of the containing container (2) to be detachable to seal the inside of the containing container (2).

Handles (6) are formed at both sides of the container (2) so that the user can hold and carry, the bottom and four sides of the container (2) as a plate member of a predetermined thickness to safely contain heavy kimchi Is formed.

Therefore, the user puts kimchi inside the container 2, closes and seals the lid 4, and keeps it in the refrigerator or the storage room of the kimchi storage, and if necessary, removes it from the storage room and eats the kimchi as necessary. .

At this time, kimchi is added with various seasonings and seasonings, and when kimchi is fermented, dozens of odors are generated from various ingredients contained in the kimchi. Conventionally, these kimchis are opened in the process of opening and closing the lid of a kimchi container to take out kimchi. Due to the peculiar smell, there was a problem of discomfort to the user.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is a methyl-based chemical component such as methyl mercaptin, trimethylamine, which is the main component of the kimchi smell in the kimchi stored in the kimchi container In order to remove the kimchi to remove the kimchi to remove the kimchi in the process of minimizing the smell of kimchi to provide a lid structure of the kimchi can reduce the user's discomfort.

In the present invention for achieving the above object, in the kimchi container consisting of a receiving container having a receiving space therein, and a lid made to be detachably inserted into the upper portion of the receiving container,

A gas discharge port penetrating an inner and an outer side is formed in a predetermined portion of the lid, and the cap structure of the kimchi container is provided in contact with the gas discharge port, and a deodorant is attached to an inner portion of the lid.

At this time, the deodorizing agent is characterized in that it is made of a catalyst of the activated carbon series or a variety of inorganic material to the deodorizing action.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In this case, the same or similar names are assigned to the same or similar elements as the related art, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Figure 2 is a view showing the bottom surface of the kimchi container lid according to the present invention, Figure 3 is a side cross-sectional view of Figure 2, Figure 4 is a view showing a state of the cap of the kimchi container according to the present invention fitted to the upper portion of the container. Drawing.

As shown in FIG. 2, the deodorant 14 is fitted to the fixing protrusion 16 in the inner part of the lid 10 of the kimchi container according to the present invention, and the deodorant 14 is in contact with the lid 10. The gas outlet 18 is formed at one side through the inside and the outside.

At this time, as shown in Figure 3, the fixing protrusions 16 formed on one side of the inner side of the lid 10 so that the deodorant 14 is seated around the lid 10 so that the lid 10 is fitted into the receiving container It is more preferably made of a smaller size than the fitting protrusion 13 of the fitting portion 12 formed along the protruded inward.

In general, when chemically analyzing the substances generated from kimchi, the main components of the smell of kimchi can be seen that the chemical components of the methyl system such as methyl mercaptan (methyl mercaptan) and trimethyl amine (trimethyl amine).

Therefore, the deodorant 14 is preferably composed of an activated carbon-based catalyst material or various inorganic materials capable of adsorbing and decomposing the chemical component of the methyl system.

At this time, as the type of the inorganic material may be used, such as ceramic, jade, ocher, charcoal, elvan, etc. In addition, various materials having a deodorizing function may be used.

Hereinafter, the operation and effects of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As described above, the deodorant 14 is provided on one side of the inner side, and the lid 10 according to the present invention in which the gas outlet 18 is formed on one side of the contact portion of the deodorant 14 is shown in FIG. 4. In the state where the kimchi is stored in the container 20, it is fitted to the upper portion of the container 20 to seal the inside of the container 20.

As the kimchi is stored inside the kimchi container, the kimchi is fermented over time to produce methyl-based chemical components such as methyl mercaptin or trimethylamine and many other substances that are the main components of the kimchi odor. Will be.

At this time, the chemical components of the methyl system that is the main component of the kimchi odor are decomposed while passing through the deodorant 14 provided on the inner side of the lid 10 and then continuously discharged to the outside through the gas outlet 18.

That is, as a structure that removes the components causing the kimchi odor generated in the kimchi through the surface of the deodorant 14, so that the user can minimize the kimchi odor when the lid 10 is opened to take out the kimchi. do.

In addition, the chemical components of the methyl system are adsorbed and decomposed by the deodorant 14 and discharged to the outside through the gas outlet 18, while the carbon dioxide gas remains in the kimchi container.

At this time, the carbon dioxide gas is dissolved in kimchi to give a unique taste of kimchi, by controlling the metabolism of microorganisms to extend the shelf life of kimchi and maintain a fresh taste as it is.

On the other hand, the lid structure of the kimchi container according to an embodiment of the present invention is not limited only to the above embodiments, various modifications are possible within the scope not departing from the technical gist.

As described above, according to the lid structure of the kimchi container according to the present invention, the main component of the kimchi smell generated in the kimchi container is decomposed while passing through the deodorant and discharged to the outside, thereby minimizing the kimchi smell in the process of opening and closing the kimchi container. The carbon dioxide gas remains in the kimchi container as it is, it is effective to store fresh kimchi flavor for a long time.
