Description

The utility model relates to the field of cooking and baking, in particular to the field of fast food or fast food.

In the modern market of culinary products, there is a need for culinary containers containing various fillings and allowing dispense with packaging, since the culinary container is edible.

Known edible container for food products, made in the form of a sandwich consisting of two dense edible surfaces located one above the other, and parallel to each other, while its main food is in the space between them (Application US 2007154599 A1, A21D 13/00, 05.07. 2007). The specified device does not allow storing and transporting food of small fractions, since it is not closed and food may fall out or spill out of the container.

Closest to the proposed one is an edible container containing a base packaging made of edible material, in which cells are made equal in volume to the size of a person’s mouth (i.e., to one bite of the bath), arranged sequentially one after another in a straight line (US Patent 4205091 A, A21D 13/00, 05/27/1980).

This technical solution has the disadvantage that when placing a complex of dishes in such a design, including, for example, a snack and a main dish, or a snack, a main dish and dessert, or several snacks, a main dish and dessert, the total length of the complex is so large that use becomes unrealistic. It becomes impossible to serve any whole dish, for example, schnitzel, fried eggs, pizza, etc. exceeding one cell in volume.

The objective of the utility model is to expand the technical capabilities of the edible structure, as well as expand the assortment of products and dishes available for use on the street.

In addition, the proposed device allows you to:

- make it technically possible to use on the street all products and dishes (except liquid ones) without using a table in a cafe, without any dishes, cutlery and packaging;

- ensure maximum reliability of use in street conditions - do not crumble, losing its integrity, both in horizontal and vertical positions, do not lose the products and dishes contained in it, or become unusable during the whole process of use;

- be simple and convenient to use.

The problem is solved in that the culinary container contains two identical forming half modules, made with the edges bent towards each other with the possibility of connecting them along the entire perimeter of the external contours of the half modules, while the connected edges of the modules have a wavy profile, consisting of alternately repeating convex and concave segments having the same profile, length and height, and when two modules are connected, all convex and concave segments of one module are completely in contact of all the concave and convex segments of another module.

Preferably, the culinary container is provided with an additional latch of two half modules, made in the form of a paper tightening tape covering them, tightly fastened due to the sticky substance deposited on the surface of one of its ends.

The specified implementation of the device allows you to expand the technical capabilities of the edible structure, as well as expand the range of products and dishes available for use on the street.

As shown in figure 1, the cooking container is a small, convenient for holding in one hand a box (container) made of edible material. The container may contain any food except liquid. The half modules forming the cooking container can be made from baked dough similar to the dough used in waffle production or other edible material providing such necessary technical qualities as edibility, density and brittleness.

As shown in figure 2 and 3, the culinary container consists of two identical in design modules-halves 1 forming its shape. The shape of the module is a surface with bent around the entire perimeter (to the same height) edges (figure 2). As a possible variant of the culinary container, a structure having a frontal silhouette of a rectangular shape, which is reflected in the drawings of FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, can be proposed.

As shown in FIG. 6, the outer contour of the curved edges of the half-module shape has a wavy silhouette resembling a sinusoid, or a curve with a variable value — a looped line stretched around the entire perimeter of the half module. Convex sectors 2 and concave sectors 3 of the formed shape are mirror images of each other, identical both in silhouette and length and height, in other words, the convex sector 2 of the form (spike) can ideally connect with the concave sector 3 (recess), and vice versa. The location of the convex and concave sectors of the shape along the contour of the module halves 1 can be any, provided that they are the same number.

As shown in FIG. 7

As shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 9

As shown in FIG. 10, the cooking container may be provided with a constricting tape 4, which is an elongated strip of thin paper having, at one end, a portion 5 with a sticky coating (a surface coated with a sticky food composition).

As shown in FIGS. 11A, B and C, the length of the fixing tape is the length of its full revolution around the width of the assembled cooking container, plus a small length segment. The tape performs its fixing function due to a complete revolution around the cooking container and gluing the end of the tape with a sticky surface to its own beginning, as a result of which a paper ring is formed that tightly tightens the edible structure (Fig. 11C).

The result of the use of the fixing tape is tight tightening of the half modules with each other. This decision makes the use of the culinary container reliable in all planes and angles - it will not fall into two halves, will not allow the products inside to fall out, which is extremely important and simply necessary when eating in outdoor conditions.

As shown in figa, b and C, the cooking container retains its integrity and strength throughout the entire food process, even in a partially eaten state. This result is achieved due to the spike connection of the half modules, as well as the paper tape 4, which, forming a dense closed ring around the structure, can, if necessary, move along the culinary container, continuing to fulfill its constricting function (figs).

The device operates as follows. Both halves of the container are exactly the same - they are made of the same shape and can be delivered nested in each other, in this position they have a minimum volume suitable for compact packaging (figa). Consider the assembly of the culinary container from this initial position, when the half modules are inserted into each other, and all their structural elements, as well as external and internal surfaces are equally coordinated in space.

To assemble the culinary container, you must first expand the half modules with the inner sides to each other (Fig. 9B), then turn one of the half modules into 180 ° around its front axis (Fig. 9C), after which it remains only to close them according to the principle spike connection - the spikes of the contour of one half fit tightly into the recesses of the other, and vice versa (Fig.7, Fig.8), half modules are tightly connected, the cooking container is assembled (Fig.9D).

The result of the correct connection of the two half modules is the creation of a closed volume (Fig. 3), as well as their longitudinal adhesion to each other by connecting their wave-like contours along the entire perimeter of the contact.

Such a clutch makes it completely impossible to offset the halves of the modules relative to each other in the longitudinal plane, which is an extremely important result that increases the reliability and usability of the edible structure in outdoor conditions.

Nevertheless, the half modules of the culinary container still have one degree of freedom that can deprive the design of integrity - the two surface-forming parts can separate (the spikes and recesses of one form will separate with the corresponding recesses and spikes of the other), which is especially likely if the culinary container is not in horizontal, and in vertical position.

An additional clamp for the cooking container can be a tightening tape. This tape is an elongated strip of thin paper (figure 10, position 4), having at one of its ends a section with an adhesive coating (figure 10, position 5) (a surface coated with a sticky food composition). The length of the fixing tape is the length of its full revolution around the width of the assembled cooking container, plus a piece of small length. The tape performs its fixing function by completely turning around the cooking container (Fig. 11A, B and C) and gluing the end of the tape with a sticky surface to its own beginning, as a result of which a paper ring is formed that tightly tightens the edible structure (Fig. 11C).

The tightening tape 4 encircling the culinary container (Fig. 10, Fig. 11 and Fig. 12) is an additional, but not mandatory fixing means and can be made of plain thin paper with a small amount of adhesive food composition applied to one of its ends (Fig. .10, 5).

The proposed design of the culinary container allows you to expand the technical capabilities of the edible design, as well as expand the range of products and dishes available for use on the street.
