When the lid 30 is covered on the box body 10, the annular groove 311 is fitted on the upper peripheral edge of the accommodating part 22, which can play a certain sealing role, effectively avoiding the smell of food in different accommodating parts 22 from mixing, and can keep the taste of each food. Preferably, the groove width dimension of the annular groove 311 can be the same as the wall thickness of the upper peripheral edge of the accommodating part 22 to improve the isolation effect.

[0035] In some embodiments, a sealing strip is provided in the annular groove 311 to improve the sealing performance. The sealing strip can be annular, and the sealing strip can be selected from, including but not limited to, silicone sealing strips. Of course, the sealing strip can also not be provided, and a relatively high level of isolation effect can be achieved by using the annular groove 311.

[0036] In some embodiments, the box body 10 can be, including but not limited to, a square cylindrical structure or a circular cylindrical structure. The preparation material of the box body 10 can be, including but not limited to, food-grade silicone, food-grade plastic, glass or metal materials.

Among them, the two through holes 32 can be arranged at intervals along the width direction of the cover body 30, or the two through holes 32 can be arranged at intervals along the length direction of the cover body 30.

[0040] Preferably, the through holes 32 can be arranged at intervals along the length direction of the cover body 30. In this way, when the handle 40 is installed, the handle 40 can have a more spacious operating space, making it more comfortable and convenient to carry.

[0041] Furthermore, the handle 40 includes a strip-shaped main body portion 41. The lower surface of the main body portion 41 is provided with two columnar portions 42, which are arranged at intervals. One end of each columnar portion 42 away from the main body portion 41 is provided with a limiting portion 43. The diameter of the columnar portion 42 is similar to the diameter of the through hole 32. The cross-sectional dimension of the portion of the limiting portion 43 close to the columnar portion 42 is larger than the inner diameter of the through hole 32. The through hole 32 can be a round hole, the columnar portion 42 can be a cylindrical shape, the diameter of the columnar portion 42 can be the same as the diameter of the through hole 32, or the diameter of the columnar portion 42 can be slightly smaller than the diameter of the through hole 32. For example, the diameter of the columnar portion 42 can be slightly smaller than the diameter of the through hole 32 by 0.1 mm - 0.5 mm. The cross-sectional dimension of the portion of the limiting portion 43 close to the columnar portion 42 is larger than the inner diameter of the through hole 32, so that the columnar portion 42 is not easily disengaged from the through hole 32. The limiting portion 43 can be generally in a hemispherical structure or a flat plate structure. Preferably, the handle 40 can be made of a rubber material.

[0042] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, in some embodiments, the cover body 30 and the box body 10 are connected by a snap connection. The outer peripheral edge of the opening side of the box body 10 is provided with a card slot portion 11, and the card slot portion 11 can be generally in a ring-shaped groove structure with an opening facing downward. The card slot portion 11 can be an integral structure or a plurality of spaced ones. The card slot portion 11 can be used for snap-fit cooperation with the snap portion 50, and can also play a role in enhancing the structural strength of the opening side of the box body 10.

[0043] The peripheral edge of the cover body 30 is provided with a plurality of snap portions 50 for mutually engaging with the card slot portion 11. When the cover body 30 is generally in a rectangular structure, the four side surfaces of the cover body 30 can be provided with snap portions 50, and at least one snap portion 50 can be provided on each side surface of the cover body 30.

[0044] As Figure 2 or Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, an installation portion 33 is provided along the peripheral edge of the cover body 30. The buckle portion 50 is rotatably connected to the installation portion 33. The installation portion 33 may be generally in the shape of a long strip columnar structure. The length direction of the installation portion 33 is the same as the length direction of the side surface of the cover body 30. Positioning holes 331 are respectively provided at both ends of the length direction of the installation portion 33 (as Figure 2 shown). One end of the buckle portion 50 is provided with a U-shaped groove. Positioning protrusions 51 for installation into the positioning holes are provided on two opposite wall surfaces of the U-shaped groove, so that the buckle portion 50 can rotate around the positioning holes through the positioning protrusions 51. Most of the buckle structures in the related art are connected to the cover body 30 by the ear root. After the buckle structure is subjected to multiple buckling operations, fatigue wear will occur, which is likely to cause the fracture and damage of the buckle structure. The buckle portion 50 in this embodiment has better flexibility and longer service life.

[0045] Combined with Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , in some embodiments, a sealing groove 34 is provided on the inner bottom surface of the cover body 30.
