[0031] See also Figure 1 An embodiment of the utility model provides a foldable lunch box, comprising: a plurality of lunch box bodies 10 and a locking structure 20.

[0032] See also Figure 2 The lunch box body 10 includes a first shell 11, a second shell 12 and a folding portion 13. The first shell 11 is connected to the second shell 12 through the folding portion 13. The first shell 11, the second shell 12 and the folding portion 13 surround a receiving groove 14. A clamping portion 15 is provided on the top of the first shell 11.

[0033] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4 When the foldable lunch box is in a folded state, the folding portion 13 is bent to fold the second shell 12 into the first shell 11, so that the second shell 12 is hidden inside the first shell 11, thereby reducing the overall volume of the lunch box body 10. Multiple lunch box bodies 10 are stacked in sequence from top to bottom, and the first shell 11 of the lunch box body 10 extends into the first shell 11 of the adjacent lunch box body 10 located below, so that the multiple lunch box bodies 10 are folded together, achieving a reduced volume and convenient carrying.

[0034] When the foldable lunch box is in use, multiple lunch box bodies 10 are arranged around the locking structure 20, and the locking structure 20 is engaged with the snap-fitting portion 15, so that the multiple lunch box bodies 10 are locked and spliced ​​together, so that the multiple lunch box bodies 10 form a large dinner plate. The multiple lunch box bodies 10 can hold different meals respectively to prevent odor contamination, and a larger amount of meals can be placed to meet customer needs.

[0035] See also Figure 5 In some optional embodiments, the clamping portion 15 protrudes from the top of the first shell 11, and the locking structure 20 includes a locking cover, and the locking cover is provided with a plurality of slots 21, and the clamping portion 15 is correspondingly engaged with the slots 21, so that a plurality of lunch box bodies 10 can be stably locked and spliced ​​with each other. Of course, the structure of the clamping portion 15 and the locking structure 20 is not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art can also select other suitable structures according to the teachings of the utility model.

[0036] In some optional embodiments, the size of the second shell 12 gradually decreases in the direction away from the first shell 11 , which facilitates the second shell 12 to fold into the first shell 11 , making it easy for the first shell 11 to accommodate the second shell 12 .

[0037] In some optional embodiments, the foldable lunch box includes four lunch box bodies 10. When the foldable lunch box is in use, the four lunch box bodies 10 are evenly arranged around the locking structure 20, and the sides of the four lunch box bodies 10 abut against each other. Of course, the number of foldable lunch boxes is not limited thereto, and those skilled in the art can also select other appropriate numbers according to the teachings of the utility model.

[0038] In some optional embodiments, the cross-section of the first shell 11 is rectangular. When the foldable lunch box is in use, adjacent first shells 11 abut against each other. The rectangular lunch box body 10 can make the sides of the first shells 11 stably abut against each other, which can improve the stability of the foldable lunch box when in use.

[0039] In some optional embodiments, an outer folded edge 16 is provided on the outer side of the first shell 11, and the outer folded edge 16 is arranged around the accommodating groove 14. When the foldable lunch box is in use, the side edges of the outer folded edges 16 of adjacent first shells 11 abut against each other. When the foldable lunch box is in a folded state, the outer folded edges 16 of the upper and lower adjacent first shells 11 abut against each other, thereby improving the stacking stability.

[0040] When the clamping portion 15 is designed to protrude from the first shell body 11, the clamping portion 15 will hinder the stacking of the upper and lower lunch box bodies 10. For this reason, in some optional embodiments, a clearance groove 17 is provided at the bottom of the outer folding edge 16. When the folding lunch box is in a folded state, the clamping portion 15 of the outer folding edge 16 located at the bottom extends into the clearance groove 17 of the outer folding edge 16 located at the top, thereby avoiding the clamping portion 15 from interfering with the abutment of adjacent outer folding edges 16, and also being able to position adjacent outer folding edges 16.

[0041] In some optional embodiments, the first shell 11 is a first shell 11 made of silicone. The second shell 12 is a second shell 12 made of silicone, which makes the second shell 12 elastic and convenient for folding the second shell 12 toward the first shell 11. The folding portion 13 is a folding portion 13 made of silicone, which makes the folding portion 13 elastic and convenient for folding. Of course, the folding portion 13 can also be made of other elastic materials. Among them, the first shell 11, the second shell 12 and the folding portion 13 can be made of special silicone with food grade FDA and LFGB as standards.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
