Food storage container structure

Abstract

This invention relates to a food storage container structure, comprising a base, a lid, a lever, and an airtight structure. The lid is attached to the base and has a groove and an opening on one side of the groove. An air vent is provided in the groove, and non-circular holes are provided on both sides of the opening. The lever includes a plate and non-circular shafts on both sides of the plate. The plate has a stop section near the opening and an opposing lever section. The plate is movably engaged in the groove through the non-circular holes via the non-circular shafts. The airtight structure includes a plug and an airtight gasket. The plug is disposed on the plate and can be inserted into the air vent. The airtight gasket surrounds the bottom edge of the lid and abuts against the inner wall of the base when the lid closes to the base. When force is applied to the lever section and the plug is moved away from the air vent, the non-circular shaft moves from the bottom end of the non-circular hole to the opposite top end, causing the stop section to abut against the top edge of the base, thereby lifting the lid.

Claims

1. A food storage container structure, comprising: a base box; a lid attached to the base box, the lid having a groove and an opening on one side of the groove, the lid having an air vent in the groove, and a pair of non-circular holes on both sides of the opening; a lever comprising a plate and a pair of non-circular shafts on both sides of the plate, the plate having a stop section near the opening and an opposing lever section, and the plate being movably engaged in the groove through the pair of non-circular shafts and the pair of non-circular holes; and an airtight structure comprising a plug and an airtight gasket, the plug being disposed on the plate and capable of being inserted into the air vent, the airtight gasket surrounding the bottom edge of the lid and abutting against an inner wall of the base box when the lid closes the base box; wherein... When force is applied to the lever section and the plug body is moved away from the air hole, the pair of non-circular shafts will move from one bottom end of the pair of non-circular holes to the opposite top end, so that the abutment section abuts against the top edge of the bottom box, thereby lifting the cover body.

2. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein each of the non-circular holes extends obliquely from the bottom surface of the groove toward the top surface of the lid and the direction of the opening.

3. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein the lid is formed with a boss in the groove and the air hole is located on the boss.

4. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein the lid is provided with a stop in the groove, and the lever passes through the stop without excessive rotation.

5. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein the lid is provided with a pair of limiting grooves that extend obliquely from the top surface of the lid to the pair of non-circular holes.

6. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein the lid is formed with a snap part in the groove, the lever is provided with a hook part, and the hook part is positioned on the snap part when the plug is inserted into the air hole.

7. The food storage container structure as described in claim 6, wherein the hook portion includes a support piece perpendicular to the plate and extending toward the groove and a protrusion disposed on the support piece, and the fastener portion is a snap hook.

8. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein each non-circular axis is an elliptical axis.

9. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein a pair of flaps extend from both sides of the plate toward the groove, and the pair of non-circular shafts are disposed on the pair of flaps.

10. The food storage container structure as described in claim 1, wherein the bottom edge of the lid is provided with an annular groove, and the airtight gasket is disposed in the annular groove.
