Description

{A Food Keeping Pouch}

This design is about pouches that contain this food. More particularly, the present invention relates to a pouch having a fastener that is suitable for storing frozen food and is capable of sealing the opening.

In modern society, food that can be easily cooked in a short time at home due to busy social life is preferred. This tendency is accelerating due to the increase of single-person households.

As a result, many Korean foods, such as stew or soup, are frozen by putting them in zipper bags or plastic bags for one time, and then they are taken out and thawed during meals.

A general zipper bag has a zipper portion formed of a long groove extending across the opening and an elongated protrusion engaged with the zipper. If the zipper is pressed by a finger or a slider in such a manner as to open and close the zipper, the opening can be easily closed. Such a zipper-back structure is well known in domestic registered utility model 20-0323612 and domestic patent publication No. 10-2006-0135895.

However, such a zipper bag has a problem that the zipper, which has been closed even by a small force applied from the inside and the outside, has a problem.

Therefore, if you put boiling water or a microwave in a zippered bag to warm up foods such as soup or jjigae which are kept frozen in a zipper bag, the inner liquid will boil up and the internal vapor pressure will increase, and eventually the zipper bag will open itself, Lt; / RTI >

In order to solve this problem, a conventional technique of tightening the upper portion of the zipper bag or the plastic bag with a separate tightening member so that the opening is not easily opened even if a force acts on the inside or outside of the zipper bag or the plastic bag.

The conventional fastener is generally composed of an insertion rod and a cylindrical tube. The outer surface of the plastic bag or the zipper back opening is wrapped around the surface of the insertion rod, and then the plastic bag or the plastic bag is tightly closed by inserting the plastic bag or the plastic bag tightly into the cylindrical tube.

Conventional fastener constructions are disclosed in Korean Patent Publication No. 2003-0040326 and Korean Registered Utility Model No. 20-0375434.

When the plastic bag or the zipper bag is tightly sealed with the above-described fastener of the prior art, the liquid contained therein is boiled and vapor pressure causes the zipper bag or the plastic bag opening to be opened to prevent leakage of the juice. However, when the vapor pressure becomes too large, Another problem arises that the body of the bag itself bursts.

Korean Registered Utility Model No. 20-0323612 Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2006-0135895 Korean Patent Publication No. 2003-0040326 Korean Registered Utility Model No. 20-0375434

The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the prior art. The pouch for food storage is formed of a pouch and a tightening member made of a silicone rubber material. When the opening of the pouch is tightened with a tightening member, not only the leakage of liquid contents is prevented, So that damage to the pouch can be prevented from occurring even if the stored liquid boils and the vapor pressure rises to a high level.

The food storage pouch of the present invention is characterized in that the food storage pouch comprises a pouch formed with a groove portion engaging with each other and a fastening portion formed on the inner surface of the pouch and an tightening portion provided to surround the tightening portion of the pouch from outside A plurality of tightening guides protruding inwardly of the body to press the tightening portions, and a hollow space between the tightening guides and the tightening guides. And a margin to be formed.

Further, a small protrusion may be formed in the tightening portion of the pouch below the engaging portion between the groove and the protrusion.

In addition, it is preferable that the fastening port further includes an insertion guide at an entrance where the fastening portion of the pouch is inserted.

The present invention can be used to store frozen food in a pouch, and frozen food can be consumed by boiling water or a microwave oven.

In the present invention, since the clearance for overpressure is formed in the fastening port, the pouches sealed with the fastening port do not break even if a high vapor pressure occurs in the internal liquid foodstuff.

In addition, since the insertion guide for guiding the shape of the pouch tightening part is formed at the entrance of the tightening mouth to facilitate insertion of the pouch, the user can easily join the tightening pouch and the pouch.

Further, since the pouch of the present invention forms a small protrusion in the tightening portion, the waterproof effect can be further enhanced.

The pouch of the present invention is formed of a flexible and harmless material, preferably silicone rubber.

Silicone rubber does not lose its properties in temperatures ranging from -50 degrees Celsius to 250 degrees Celsius, and does not release toxic substances when boiled in boiling water. Therefore, it is a good material to apply to the pouch of this invention which is used in boiling water after freezing.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the pouch 10 is in the form of a bag having an opening formed in its upper part, and the bottom surface thereof is formed flat so as to be uprighted.

A groove portion 16 and a projection portion 17 which abut each other are formed on the opening portion on the upper portion of the pouch 10 to form tightening portions 12 and 13 formed on the inner surface thereof.

2 and 5, the groove 16 has an approximately semicircular cross-sectional shape and is an elongated groove formed on the right and left sides of the opening. The projecting portion 17 has the same cross-sectional shape And an elongated projection having a length.

The throttle portions 12 and 13 of the present embodiment can be divided into a left tongue 12 and a right tongue portion 13. The left and right tongue portions 12 and 13 can be divided into a left tongue portion 12 and a right tongue portion 13, The cross-sectional shape becomes a diamond-like pattern as a whole. Of course, this cross-sectional shape can be variously modified into a circle, a square, or the like.

In this embodiment, the engaging portion where the groove portion 16 and the projecting portion 17 are in contact with each other is not fitted so that the projecting portion 17 does not fall into the groove portion 16 as seen from the semicircular shape of the two elements, do.

Such a simple interview configuration is related to the vapor discharge of the tightening hole margin 27 for overpressure in the pouch to be described later.

2, the grooves 16 are formed on the inner surface of the left tongue 12 and the projections 17 are formed on the inner surface of the right tongue 13, respectively.

Small protrusions 18 and 19 are formed on the tightening portions 12 and 13 below the engaging portions of the groove 16 and the protrusion 17.

The small projections 18 and 19 of the present embodiment have a semicircular cross-sectional shape similar to that of the projections 17 and are formed in a small size. The projections 17 and 17 are formed to be long on both sides of the opening.

The small projections 18 and 19 do not require grooves which are opposed to each other, unlike the projections 17.

In the embodiment shown in Figs. 2 and 5, the first small projections 18 are formed in the left tongue 12 and the second small projections 19 are formed in the right tongue 12, respectively. The number of bumps can be adjusted according to the needs of the designer.

5, the small protrusions are provided at predetermined intervals so as not to face each other, and the mounting position is set to a position higher than the lower surface of the tightening guide 26, so that the tightening guide 26 is pressed .

FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the bottom surface of the fastener 20 of the present embodiment, and FIG. 4 is a plan view showing a top surface of the fastener 20. In Fig. 4, the portion indicated by a dotted line is the pouch 10. And FIG. 5 is a view taken along the line A-A 'of FIG. 4 in the direction of the arrow.

4 and 5, the tightening tool 20 surrounds and presses the outer surfaces of the throttle portions 12 and 13 of the pouch 10. As shown in FIGS.

The tightening tool 20 has a main body 21, a tightening guide 26, and a margin portion 27 as main components.

The body 21 has a space formed therein for receiving the throttle portions 12 and 13 of the pouch 10 and is manufactured in such a manner that a pair of elongated rods are arranged side by side.

The fastening guide 26 is provided at the lower side of the body 21 so as to protrude inwardly of the body and is provided in plural.

5, the inner surface of the tightening guide 26 is formed with a sloped surface 26-1 protruding from the inner space of the body, So as to pressurize it.

The margin portion (27) is a space formed between the tightening guide and the tightening guide, which causes the overpressure to be described later.

On the other hand, a rib (22) for connecting and supporting the body (21) arranged side by side in a pair is integrally formed. The ribs 22 have a shape in which a small rod is bent and a plurality of ribs are formed. Instead of the ribs 22, it is also possible to form a cover which completely covers the upper portion of the body 21. [

As shown in FIG. 5, the lower surface of the rib 22 serves to hold both side surfaces inclined upward of the pouch throttle portions 12 and 13. For this reason, it is preferable that the bottom surface of the rib 22 be formed in an inclined surface in conformity with the upper surface shape of the throttle portions 12 and 13.

The body 21 has an open end 24 at one end. The inlet 24 is provided with an insertion guide 25 so that one end of the pouch tightening portions 12 and 13 can be easily pushed into the body 21.

The other end of the body 21 becomes a closed blocking part 28. [ The blocking portion 28 prevents the tightening portions 12 and 13 from further proceeding when they are properly pushed into the body 21. The stopping portion is a plate shape connecting both ends of a pair of bodies (21).

On the side of the inlet (24), a structure protruding upward is provided to form a handle (23). The knob 23 is a constituent element that can be held by the thumb and index finger and can be pushed right and left by the fastener 20. [

In the embodiment of the present invention, the handle is formed in the form of a rectangular frame integrally extending from the ends of the pair of right and left bodies 21. However, it is not always necessary to limit the handle to a rectangular frame.

When the pouch tightening portions 12 and 13 are pushed into the body, the lower inclined surface of the tightening portions 12 and 13 is inserted into the body of the tightening tool 20 when the pouch tightening portions 12 and 13 are pushed into the body. And is easily guided and supported on the inclined surface 26-1 of the fastening guide 26. [

The insertion guide 25 is installed at the same height as the tightening guide 26 and the side 25-1 of the insertion guide 25 facing the inside of the body 21 is inserted into the inclined surface 26- 1, and the front face 25-2 of the insertion guide facing the inlet 24 is formed as a slope having a low entrance side and a high inside of the body.

The fastening port 20 is smoothly guided along the inclined surface of the front surface 25-2 when passing through the insertion guide 25. The fastening port 20 is guided by the inclined surface of the side surface 25-1, Is shaped like a rhombic section formed by the ribs 26 and ribs 22.

The operation of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 1 to 5. Fig.

First, as shown in Fig. 1, one end of the pouch tightening portions 12, 13, into which the food is put, is put on the insertion guide 25 in the inlet 24 of the tightening member 20, 20).

At this time, the end portions of the pouch tightening portions 12 and 13 are collapsed by the inserting guide 25 so that the groove portion 16 and the projecting portion 17 of the inner surface are aligned with each other. In this state, do.

Then, when the tightening member 20 is continuously pushed in the longitudinal direction of the tightening members 12 and 13 by holding the handle 23 and the body 21 of the tightening member 20, And then advances on the inclined surface 26-1 of the tightening guide 26 of the guide member 26 in order.

Finally, the throttle portions 12 and 13 of the pouch 10 are blocked by the blocking portion 28 of the throttle 20 and can no longer enter, and the sealing is completed.

5, the pouch 10, which is sealed by the tightening tool 20, is biased by the inclined surface 26-1 of the tightening guide 26 on both sides of the lower portion of the tightening portions 12, And on the contrary, the both inclined surfaces of the upper portions of the throttling portions 12, 13 are pressed downward by the ribs 22.

As a result, the entire throttle portions 12 and 13 are subjected to a tightening pressure, so that the groove portion 16 and the protruding portion 17 which are in contact with the inner surface are pressed to generate a tightening force in the throttle portions 12 and 13.

The first small protrusion 18 and the second small protrusion 19 shown in FIG. 5 are also pressed against the inner wall surface of the opposite pouch by the tightening guide 26, so that a predetermined sealing force can be further obtained.

When the fastener 20 is attached and sealed, the waterproof effect that the contents do not flow out even when the pouch 10 containing the liquid food or drink falls down occurs. In this state, the refrigerator can freeze food in the freezer for a long period of time.

In order to consume the food stored in the pouch, the pouch (10) equipped with the freezing fastener (20) is put into the boiling water or microwave oven and heated. Even if the liquid food becomes boiling after the food dissolves, the waterproof effect by the sealing force of the tightening mouth continues.

However, due to the carelessness of the user, the liquid food inside the pouch may be excessively boiled, and if the internal vapor pressure exceeds a certain level and overpressure occurs, the pouch may be torn.

However, in the present invention, the steam leaks out of the throttle portions 12 and 13 located in the margin portion 27 of the tightening opening 20 to eliminate the overpressure, and the pouch is not torn by the vapor pressure.

When the overpressure is relieved, the throttle portions 12 and 13 located in the margin portion 27 maintain the normal hermetic force again.

This effect is obtained because the force to withstand the pressure is weaker than other portions pressed on the tightening guide 20 because the tightening portions 12 and 13 located in the clearance portion are not pressed by the tightening guide 26. [

Upon proper thawing and heating, the fasteners are removed in reverse order and the food inside the pouches is removed.

The embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the drawings should not be construed as limiting the technical idea of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention should be understood only by the matters described in the claims, and those having ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs can make various modifications to the technical idea of the present invention. Accordingly, such improvements and modifications will fall within the scope of the present invention as long as they are obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art.
