Definitions

  • the lid is either loosely placed on the food container and can be hung during the removal of food on the food container, or the food container is firmly connected to a hinge unit which carries the lid, so that it can be swung away guided to access to allow the food.
  • the first-mentioned variant is unsatisfactory because the hanging of the lid requires a certain skill, is usually associated with a perceived as disturbing noise and also carries the risk of uncontrolled dripping of condensed water from the lid on the buffet
  • the latter variant has the Disadvantage that they are very cost- is intense, since for the management of a buffet ever presented food at least two complete arrangements consisting of food containers with hinge assembly and cover must be present, namely an arrangement which is currently on the buffet, and at least one other arrangement for replacing the on The buffet arrangement, if it has become empty or unappetizing.

It is thus possible to temporarily remove the container or to replace it with a new container while the lid with the support structure remains on the buffet. The centering of the container relative to the associated, attached to the support structure cover is thereby automatically produced when coupling the container to the support structure.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de présentation de denrées alimentaires sur un buffet, comprenant un récipient (1) doté d'une ouverture de prélèvement (3), un couvercle (2) et une structure porteuse (4, 5) qui assemble le récipient (1) et le couvercle (2) de telle sorte que le couvercle (2) peut être déplacé de manière guidée entre une position de repos dans laquelle il recouvre l'ouverture de prélèvement (3) et une position de prélèvement dans laquelle il est disposé à l'écart de l'ouverture de prélèvement (3) et permet d'avoir libre accès à l'intérieur du récipient (1). La position horizontale et de rotation du récipient (1) est définie par la structure porteuse (4, 5). Lorsque le couvercle (2) est en position de prélèvement, le récipient (1) peut être détaché de la structure porteuse (4, 5) et y être rattaché sans outil. Ce mode de réalisation évite des manipulations compliquées et bruyantes du couvercle (2), éventuellement accompagnées d'une évacuation incontrôlée d'eau de condensation. Il permet un remplacement simple du récipient (1), par exemple pour rajouter des aliments sans devoir retirer la structure porteuse (4, 5) et le couvercle (2) du buffet.
