The present invention relates to a portable cooler, and more particularly, to a portable cooler having an increased storage convenience and usability in applications such as fishing, because the storage space is made of a selectively separable structure.

In general, the portable cooler is used to maintain the freshness of the food for a long time by refrigerated food, such as fruit or can drink during outdoor leisure activities such as fishing.

The portable cooler includes a case 10 having a box shape to form a storage space as shown in FIG. 1, and a lid 12 that opens and closes an open upper surface of the case 10. The case 10 and Lid 12 is made of a relatively light insulating material.

Such a portable cooler is generally used in such a way as to block the cold air formed by storing ice and the like in the case 10 together with the food and the outside to obtain a cooling effect.

On the other hand, when the portable cooler is used for fishing, it is used not only for storing food but also for storing fresh fish in a fresh state. When storing fish (F) and food (G) together, the fish ( By-products such as fishy or off scales caused by F) are mixed with the food (G), causing a problem that the cleanliness of the food (G) is greatly reduced.

In addition, when the cooler is moved while the fish (F) and foodstuffs (G) are stored together, the fish (F) and foodstuffs (G) are entangled and collided with each other by shaking caused during the movement. The cleanliness of) decreases as well as the problem that the fish (F) is broken and the original shape is not properly maintained.

In consideration of such a problem, a cooler having a partitioned shape of a storage space of the case 10 is also conceived in order to store the goods separately.

As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the storage space of the case 10 is partitioned by the mesh 14 or the partition panel 16. The food storage G is stored in one space, and the fish is stored in the other space. F) is used to keep food (G) and fish (F) from mixing.

However, in this prior art, in the case of the cooler in which the storage space of the case 10 is divided by the mesh 14, the fish F and the foodstuff G can be prevented from directly mixing, but There is a problem in that by-products, such as intestines, that can burst when a fish is caught, cannot be transmitted to foodstuffs (G).

In the case of the cooler in which the storage space of the case 10 is partitioned by the partition panel 16, the partition panel 16 is installed in such a manner as to fit into the mounting groove 10a formed in the case 10. Although the storage space is partitioned, the partition panel 16 is provided with a structural food item (G) and the fish (F) is mixed, or fishy smell, etc. can be prevented from being transmitted to the food (G) to some extent, but the partition panel (16) ) Is fixed at a specific position in the case 10, there is a problem that the storage space is uniformly partitioned and the size of the article that can be stored is too limited.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, the use of the storage space of the case can be partitioned into a plurality of variable sub-space as needed, or can be used in one integrated to increase the ease of use and usability To provide a cooler.

A portable cooler provided to attain the above object includes a case forming a storage space in a box shape having an open top surface; A lid for opening and closing the opened upper surface of the case; It is detachably mounted in the case by a detachable manner, and comprises a partition member for partitioning or integrating into one of a plurality of sub-spaces variable storage space of the case according to the arrangement direction or position.

The partition member may include: a partition portion in the form of a panel blocking the storage space in the case; a bottom portion in the form of a panel bent at a right angle at a lower end of the partition portion and in close contact with an inner bottom surface of the case; The left and right ends of the portion are bent in the same direction to each other, the lower end of which is formed in the form of a panel connected to the bottom portion comprises a left and right side wall portion in close contact with the inner side of the case.

The edges of the bottom and sidewall portions of the partition member are configured to be gradually thinner as the inner surface thereof is shaved while going outward.

The portable cooler according to the present embodiment includes a drawing means for facilitating an operation of drawing out a partition member mounted in a case.

The withdrawal means may include a strap provided in the partition wall portion or both side wall portions of the partition member.

The withdrawal means may be formed in the partition wall portion or both side wall portion of the partition member and a locking projection protruding inward.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 to 6B.

The portable cooler according to the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 3, the upper surface of the case 10 to form a storage space in the form of an open box, the lid 12 covering the open upper surface of the case 10 and It comprises a partition member 20 which is detachably mounted in the case 10 by a interference fit method.

The partition member 20 includes a panel-shaped partition wall portion 201, a panel-shaped bottom portion 202 bent at a right angle from a lower end of the partition wall portion 201, and left and right sides of the partition wall portion 201. The left and right side wall portions 203 are bent in the same direction from each other and connected to the bottom portion 202.

In a state where the partition member 20 is mounted on the case 10, the partition 201 crosses the storage space of the case 10, and the bottom 202 is an inner bottom surface of the case 10. The contact surface 101 is formed to be in close contact with a predetermined width, and the left and right side wall portions 203 are in close contact with the inner side surface 102 of the case 10 by forming a contact surface in a predetermined width or more.

Here, the edges of the bottom portion 202 and the side wall portion 203 of the partition member 20 are preferably configured in the form of so-called slim edges that are gradually thinned by cutting the inner surface thereof toward the outside. 5a, 5b)

The portable cooler according to the present embodiment configured as described above includes a so-called partition mode in which a storage space of the case 10 is divided into a plurality of sub-spaces according to the arrangement direction or the position of the partition member 20, and the case 10. ) Storage spaces are divided into integrated modes that are integrated into one, and the usage of each mode is described as follows.

First, in the partition mode, as shown in FIG. 4A, the partition member 20 is disposed such that the partition wall 201 is positioned in the middle of the storage space of the case 10, and accordingly, the partition member 201 is based on the partition wall 201. Since the storage space 10 is partitioned from side to side, the two sub spaces formed by the partition wall 201 can be separated and used.

In the state where the partition member 20 is mounted on the case 10, the bottom portion 202 and the side wall portions 203 have a predetermined width on the inner bottom surface 101 and the inner side surface 102 of the case 10, respectively. Since the above contact surfaces are formed and are strongly adhered to each other due to the characteristics of the interference fitting method, both sub-spaces are kept airtight therebetween and are blocked from each other.

Therefore, in the compartment mode, food (G) such as fruit or canned beverage is stored in one space, and when the fish (F) is stored in the other space, the food (G) is stored from the space where the fish (F) is stored. Since the fishy (F) fishy or other by-products are not delivered to the space, the food (G) can be kept clean.

In addition, according to the present embodiment, since the partition member 20 does not have to be fixed at a specific position of the case 10, in the partition mode, the size of both subspaces partitioned by varying the position of the partition member 20 varies. It becomes variable and can form.

That is, when the partition wall portion 201 of the partition member 20 is positioned in the middle of the case 10 (shown in dotted lines in FIG. 5A), the storage space of the case 10 is divided into the same size and is biased to one side. In this case, since the sizes of the two spaces are configured differently, various applications are possible depending on the type or amount of the goods to be stored.

Next, in the integrated mode, as shown in FIG. 4B, the partition member 20 is disposed to closely contact the inner side surface 102 ′ of the case 10, thereby storing the case 10. Since the space is integrated into one, it can be used for storing large fish or food products.

In addition, according to the present embodiment, since the partition member 20 is detachably mounted to the case 10, the partition member 20 may be removed from the case 10 in some cases and stored by using only the case 10. It can also maximize the use of space.

In addition, in the present embodiment, the edges of the bottom part 202 and the side wall part 203 of the partition member 20 are configured in the form of a slim edge which is gradually thinned as the inner surface thereof is shaved as mentioned above. 5a and 5b, the bottom part 202 and the side wall part 203 of the partition member 20 are connected to the case 10 while the partition member 20 is mounted to the case 10. The boundary formed between the inner bottom surface 101 and the inner side surface 102 of the suffix becomes a gently inclined shape.

Therefore, when the caught fish are stored in the living state, the fish are prevented from being damaged by hitting the bottom 202 and side wall portions 203 of the partition member 20.

In addition, according to the present embodiment, in the configuration of the partition member 20, the bottom portion 202 is formed by bending the bottom portion 202 at a right angle with respect to the partition portion 201. Since the side wall portion 203 is bent at right angles at both side ends of the partition wall portion 201, the side wall portion 203 serves to reinforce the partition wall portion 201. In addition, the structural strength of the partition member is high, and the mounted state is more stably maintained.

The portable cooler according to the present exemplary embodiment is a drawing means which facilitates an operation of drawing out the partition member 20 mounted in the case 10, and as shown in FIG. 6A, both sidewall portions of the partition member 20 ( The strap 22 provided in the 203, or as shown in Figure 6b may be provided on both side wall portion 203 and includes a locking projection 24 of the form protruding inward.

The strap 22 or the locking protrusion 24 constituting the lead-out means may be configured in the partition wall portion 201 as well as the side wall portion 203 as necessary.

According to the withdrawal means, it is possible to more easily withdraw the partition member 20 mounted on the case 10 by holding the strap 22, pulling up or by lifting the finger on the locking projection 24, and the like. do.

Although not shown in the drawing, instead of the locking projections, the locking grooves may be formed in the side wall portion or the partition wall inner surface of the partition member by a predetermined depth instead of the locking projection. In this case as well, the partition member mounted on the case may be taken out by lifting the finger on the locking groove in the same manner as the locking protrusion.

As described above, according to the portable cooler of the present invention, since the storage structure of the case can be divided in various ways by using different arrangements of partition members, or integrated into one, it is very effective for outdoor leisure activities such as fishing. There is an advantage.
