Abstract

The present invention provides a food container having a structure where a hinge part is difficult to damage. The food container comprises a container main body (2); a cover body (11) covering an upper opening of the container main body; and a hinge part (21) arranged at the cover body in a free manner and clamped on the container main body. The hinge part at the clamping state is disposed at the outer side in relative to outmost protrusions 5T and 7T of the container main body or the cover body, so the hinge part is not impacted by the outside when the hinge part is clamped in the cover body. In particular, the hinge part is not impacted by the outside, the joint part of the cover body and the hinge part, where damages often occur, is not damaged. In addition, under the conditions where the food container falls down to the ground, the hinge part does not contact with the ground because only the container main body and the cover body contact the ground, thus the hinge part (21) is not easy to contaminate when the container is opened and closed, and the food container is sanitary.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a food container, which includes a container body, a lid covering the upper part of the container body, and a hinge member reversibly provided on the lid and locked to the container body. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, food containers in which a lid and a hinge member are pivotally fitted to the lid according to the unevenness of the shaft, and the hinge member is pivotally locked to the container body are known (for example, Patent Document 1). [0003] Also, in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, the fixing member which is a hinge member is arranged on the side surface of the container, and is located at the outermost side. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-108717 [0005] As described in Patent Document 1, in a food container having a hinge member pivotably connected to the lid, the hinge member directly in contact with the outside is likely to be impacted, an...
