[0024] Example 1

[0025] like Figures 1 to 6 The lunch box shown is convenient for carrying soup, comprising a box body 1, a storage liner 2 is arranged in the box body 1, a soup pot 3 is placed in the storage liner 2, a soup cover 4 is clamped on the top of the soup pot 3, a handle 5 is rotatably arranged on the top of the soup cover 4, a mounting plate 6 is arranged on the top of the rear side of the box body 1, a box cover 7 is hinged on the top of the mounting plate 6, a raised area 8 is arranged on the right side of the top of the box cover 7, and a placement recessed area 9 is extended to the left side of the raised area 8; the storage liner 2 is divided into at least two areas by a partition 10, and the soup pot 3 is placed on the right side of the partition 10; a frame 11 is arranged on the top of the storage liner 2, a limiting plate 12 is slidably installed on the right side of the frame 11, and a limiting groove 13 is opened on the limiting plate 12, and the limiting groove 13 is provided on the limiting plate 12. 3 is provided with a limit ring 14 on the inner side; the limit ring 14 is set to extend and shrink from bottom to top; a guide rail 15 is extended upward from the placement recessed area 9, and a sealing plate 16 is slidably provided on the guide rail 15, and friction patterns 17 are provided on the front and rear sides of the sealing plate 16; a sealing outer ring 18 is provided on the top of the frame 11, and a sealing inner ring 19 is provided at the bottom of the box cover 7; a card plate 20 is provided on the front side of the box body 1, and a locking plate 21 is hinged on the front side of the box cover 7, and a locking block 22 is provided on the locking plate 21; a handle 23 is hinged at the lower part of the mounting plate 6, and a plurality of anti-slip pads 24 are provided at the bottom of the box body 1; a nesting 25 is extended from the top of the soup pot 3, and a nesting groove 26 is provided at the bottom of the soup cover 4, and a rubber sleeve 27 is provided in the nesting groove 26.

[0026] The utility model divides the storage liner 2 into at least two areas, one of which is used to place the soup pot 3. The soup pot 3 is then fixed in the storage liner 2 through a limiting groove 13 provided on a limiting plate 12, and is clamped in the storage liner 2 by the limiting plate 12, so that it cannot be easily moved. A raised area 8 is also provided on the box cover 7, so that after the soup cover 4 covers the soup pot 3, the box cover 7 can be rotated to drive the raised area 8 to resist the soup cover 4, while maintaining the close engagement between the soup pot 3 and the soup cover 4, it can also indirectly realize the upper limit of the soup pot 3, further protect the soup food in the soup pot 3, and ensure its convenience, practicality and ease of use in carrying.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6The lunch box shown is a lunch box for carrying soup, comprising a box body 1 and a storage liner 2. The box body 1 is a common rectangular shape, which is convenient for installing the storage liner 2 to divide its internal space into multiple areas to prevent the food from mixing, and also helps the lunch box to be more stable when stored and not easy to roll or overturn. The storage liner 2 serves as an insulating carrier between the food and the box body 1, which can effectively protect the loaded food, and can also prevent the heat of the food from being directly dissipated through the box body 1, resulting in the inability to keep the food warm and maintain its good taste; and common and effective insulation materials such as polystyrene foam can also be filled between the box body 1 and the storage liner 2, while isolating the temperature, the food in the storage liner 2 is stored warm, and the food is prevented from deteriorating under high or low temperature conditions, thereby causing physical damage to the eater.

[0029] The storage liner 2 is divided into at least two areas by the partition 10. The specific division depends on the specific needs of the user. For example, some people who want to lose weight may not consume much staple food, and may even carry some fruits. In addition to soup, at least three positions must be left in the storage liner 2. For this embodiment, only one partition 10 is temporarily set, and the storage liner 2 is divided into two areas. The left side is used to place staple food and vegetables, and the right side is used to place the soup pot 3. The soup pot 3 itself is filled with heat preservation materials to meet the extremely high requirements of the storage environment temperature of soups. In addition, a nesting 25 is extended from the top of the soup pot 3, and a protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the nesting 25. When the bottom of the soup cover 4 is provided with a rubber sleeve 27 through the nesting groove 26, the rubber sleeve 27 can be driven to be stuck in the protrusion of the nesting 25 when the soup cover 4 is pressed downward. The soup cover 4 is covered by the shape of the protrusion and the friction with the rubber sleeve 27, and the soup cover 4 is driven to be close to the soup pot 3 to complete the sealing of the soup pot 3.

[0030] Example 3

[0031] On the basis of Example 2, considering that the divided areas of the storage liner 2 are all square, the soup pot 3 will still move after being placed in the storage liner 2, so a limiting component is also provided, the limiting component includes a frame 11, a limiting plate 12, a limiting groove 13 and a limiting ring 14, wherein the frame 11 is fixedly arranged on the top of the storage liner 2, and the shape of the inner wall is consistent with the shape of the storage liner 2, and the limiting plate 12 is slidably installed on the right side of the frame 11 (i.e., the soup pot 3 is placed), and a circular limiting groove 13 is opened on the limiting plate 12, and the inner diameter of the limiting groove 13 is larger than The soup pot 3, and the inner side of the limiting groove 13 is also provided with a limiting ring 14. When in use, the soup pot 3 must be placed in the storage liner 2 first, and then the limiting plate 12 is snapped into the right side of the frame 11. The limiting ring 14 will first contact the soup pot 3. Since it is set to extend and shrink from bottom to top, that is, the inner diameter becomes smaller as it goes up, but the inner diameter (minimum circumference) of the top of the limiting ring 14 is still smaller than the outer diameter of the soup pot 3, the limiting ring 14 will resist the soup pot 3, and at the same time drive the soup pot 3 to be positioned to the center, so that the limiting plate 12 can continue to move downward and be completely snapped into the frame 11. And after the limiting plate 12 is snapped into the frame 11, it can play a certain role in limiting and fixing the soup pot 3, preventing the soup pot 3 from moving randomly in the storage liner 2, and protecting the soup food in the soup pot 3.

[0032] In order to further limit the upper part of the soup pot 3 during use to prevent it from moving up and down, causing the soup cover 4 to fall off, and the soup to spill out and cause the storage liner 2 to be contaminated, a raised area 8 of corresponding size is provided on the box cover 7. The height of the raised area 8 will be consistent with the height of the soup pot 3 protruding from the storage liner 2 after the cover is closed. Then, when the box cover 7 is rotated to engage with the box body 1, the raised area 8 can resist the soup cover 4, maintaining the close engagement between the soup pot 3 and the soup cover 4, and can also indirectly limit the upper part of the soup pot 3, so that the soup pot 3 is firmly fixed in the storage liner 2 and will not move at will.

[0033] Example 4

[0034] like Figures 1 to 6The lunch box shown is convenient for carrying soup. It should be noted that the box cover 7 is not directly hinged and installed on the rear side of the box body 1. A mounting plate 6 is provided on the rear side of the box body 1. The box cover 7 is hinged and installed on the upper part of the mounting plate 6. At the same time, a handle 23 is hinged and provided at the lower part of the mounting plate 6. A torsion spring can also be added between the handle 23 and the mounting plate 6 to connect them, so that the handle 23 can be placed close to the box body 1 when not in use; when the box body 1 needs to be moved, the handle 23 can be broken out, and the entire box body 1 can be lifted by holding the handle 23 for easy movement. After moving, the box body 1 needs to be placed on a plane again. When encountering a non-planar environment, this embodiment can also be assisted by a plurality of anti-skid pads 24 provided at the bottom of the box body 1. The anti-skid pads 24 are made of arc-shaped rubber material, usually provided at the four corners of the bottom of the box body 1, and then the box body 1 can be firmly placed by the influence of the material of the anti-skid pads 24 themselves.

[0035] It should be noted that the tight connection between the box cover 7 and the box body 1 is to prevent the box cover 7 from opening suddenly and no longer limiting the soup pot 3, while ensuring the heat storage of the food stored in the storage liner 2. Therefore, the present embodiment also strengthens the sealing between the box cover 7 and the box body 1, and a sealing outer ring 18 is provided at the top of the frame 11. The approximate shape of the sealing outer ring 18 is the outer shape of the frame 11, and a sealing inner ring 19 is correspondingly provided at the bottom of the cover plate. The shape of the sealing inner ring 19 can be perfectly embedded in the sealing outer ring 18, and the middle vertical bar design is on the same horizontal line as the partition 10. That is, when the box cover 7 is rotated to cover the box body 1, the sealing outer ring 18 is isolated from the external environment, and the sealing inner ring 19 is embedded in the sealing outer ring 18, thereby strengthening the sealing of the storage liner 2 from the outside world, isolating the external air temperature, preventing heat dissipation, and protecting the food in the storage liner 2. At the same time, the vertical bar design in the middle of the sealing inner ring 19 is in contact with the frame 11, thereby isolating the two areas of the storage liner 2 for a second time, thereby preventing the food in the left area from moving to the soup pot 3 on the right.

[0036] At the same time, in order to satisfy the needs of users to easily and conveniently eat delicious soups at any place, a device for storing soup spoons is also provided. A placement recessed area 9 is provided at the top of the box cover 7 and extending to the left side of the raised area 8, in which any required items such as soup spoons, forks, folding chopsticks, etc. can be placed; and a guide rail 15 is extended upward from the recessed area. The guide rail 15 not only lengthens the storage height and volume of the recessed area, so that it can store more diverse dining tools, but also a sealing plate 16 can be slidably set on it to close the recessed area and prevent the dining tools from falling out. Friction patterns 17 are also provided on the front and rear sides of the sealing plate 16 to increase the friction between the human hand and the sealing plate 16, so that people can easily remove the sealing plate 16 and take the dining tools for use, thereby improving convenience of use.

[0037] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the elements.

[0038] The above description is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Other modifications or equivalent substitutions made to the technical solution of the utility model by ordinary technicians in this field should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model.
