AI Technical Summary
When using a carrying bag to transfer food during steam heating, existing food containers are prone to tilting, causing food to spill or the lid to get dirty. Furthermore, their complex structure makes it difficult for current technologies to simultaneously achieve energy savings and structural simplification.
Design a lunchbox structure with a glued handle. By gluing two handle ropes to the top of the lunchbox to form a handle loop, the handle ropes are fixed to the box body and lid to ensure that the lunchbox remains horizontal when transferred, preventing tilting and food spillage.
It enables convenient transfer of lunch boxes, avoids tilting and food spillage, simplifies the structure, and improves the reliability of fixation and ease of use.

Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to food cooking and processing utensils, and more particularly to a lunch box structure with a handle attached. Background Technology
[0002] There are many methods for cooking food, such as electric heating, microwave heating, gas heating, and steam heating. In existing steam-heated food cooking methods, the food and broth are placed in a food container (hereinafter referred to as a meal box) and then placed in a heating space (which also serves as an output chamber). Steam inlet holes are installed on the walls of the heating space, allowing steam to enter and heat the entire space to cook the food. To meet the needs of selling ready-to-eat meals, those skilled in the art have designed vending machines that integrate the storage and cooking of raw food. In this case, for energy conservation and environmental protection, the storage chamber and heating space need to be separated by a partition. To allow food to be transferred between the storage and output chambers, a food transfer window is installed on the partition. In existing food storage and heating equipment, transferring food from the storage chamber to the heating space is done by one set of mechanisms. After the food transfer is completed, either the transfer window is not closed (this method has poor energy efficiency) or another drive mechanism is used. Using two sets of mechanisms to perform two functions results in a complex structure. To address this, a food transfer structure for a food cooking machine, with a vertically arranged food storage chamber and food cooking chamber, was designed as disclosed in patent document CN202022709181.9. Existing food cooking machines use containers with outward-flaring edges for cooking food. After cooking, the food is stored in a carrying bag for retrieval. However, the food easily shifts or tilts within the bag, causing it to spill out (the lids of containers cooked by vending machines are often punctured) or soil the inner surface of the lid, making it easy to contaminate the dining environment when the lid is opened. Utility Model Content
[0003] The present invention aims to provide a lunch box structure with a handle that can be easily lifted by the user, to replace the lunch box that is transported by a tote bag, and to overcome the problem that the lunch box that is transported by a tote bag is prone to shifting and tilting.
[0004] The above technical problems are solved by the following technical solution: a lunchbox structure with a glued handle, comprising a lunchbox body and a lid sealed and fixed to the lunchbox body, characterized in that it further comprises two handle ropes, the two ends of which are glued to the top surface of the lunchbox to form two handle loops, the two handle loops being symmetrically distributed on both sides of the lunchbox. In use, the lunchbox is lifted by the two handle loops, eliminating the need for a separate carrying bag when transferring the lunchbox, thus improving the convenience of transfer.
[0005] Preferably, when the lunchbox is lifted by simultaneously holding the midpoint of the portion of the handle loop formed by the two handle straps, the lunchbox is in a horizontal position. This allows the lunchbox to be lifted even when full without easily spilling food.
[0006] Preferably, the two ends of the two handles are fixed together one-to-one. This ensures that if one handle comes loose, the force is shared by the other handle, preventing a large angle of tilt that could cause food to spill out.
[0007] Preferably, one end of each of the two handle ropes is integrally formed and fixed together. This improves ease of manufacturing.
[0008] Preferably, the handle rope is made of adhesive, and at least one end of the two handle ropes is heat-fused together. This makes it convenient to connect the handle ropes together.
[0009] Preferably, the opening end of the box body has a lower outward flange, and the box lid is glued to the lower outward flange and fixed together with the box body. The outer edge of the lower outward flange extends beyond the edge of the box lid, and the handle rope is glued to both the portion of the lower outward flange extending beyond the box lid and the box lid. The handle rope can increase the fixing reliability of the box body and the box lid.
[0010] Preferably, the outer edge of the lower outward-facing flange is bent upwards to form an upper flange, and the upper edge of the upper flange is bent outwards to form an upper outward-facing flange. The edge of the lid, the lower outward-facing flange, and the upper flange form a connecting ring groove extending circumferentially along the lid, and the handle rope is bonded within the connecting ring groove. This reduces the height of the handle rope protruding from the lid and increases the area of the bonded portion of the handle rope, thereby improving the bonding reliability.
[0011] Preferably, the handle rope is bonded to the upper flange. This improves the reliability of the handle rope's fixation.
[0012] The utility model has the following advantages: the handle rope is attached to the lunch box, the structure is simple and the fixation is reliable; the lunch box can be transferred without a carrying bag, and the lunch box is not easy to tilt when transferred. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Example 1, see Figure 1 A lunchbox structure with adhesive handles includes a lunchbox body 1 and a lid 2 sealed and fixed to the body. It also includes two handle straps 3, the ends of which are adhesively bonded to the top surface of the lunchbox to form two handle loops 4, symmetrically distributed on both sides of the lunchbox. In use, the lunchbox is lifted by the two handle loops, eliminating the need for a separate carrying bag and improving ease of transport. When the lunchbox is lifted by simultaneously pulling on the midpoint of the portion of the handle loops formed by the two handle straps, the lunchbox is in a horizontal position. The two ends of the two handle straps are fixed together one-to-one; specifically, one end of each handle strap is integrally formed and fixed together. The handle straps are made of adhesive, and at least one end of each handle strap is heat-fused together. The open end of the lunchbox body has a lower outward-facing flange 5. The handle straps are adhesively bonded to the lid.
[0019] Example 2 differs from Example 1 in that:
[0020] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 The lid is bonded to the lower outward-facing flange and thus fixed to the box body, with the outer edge of the lower outward-facing flange extending beyond the edge of the lid. The outer edge of the lower outward-facing flange bends upward to form an upper flange 6, and the upper edge of the upper flange bends outward to form an upper outward-facing flange 7. The edge of the lid, the lower outward-facing flange, and the upper flange form a connecting groove 8 extending circumferentially along the lid. The handle rope is bonded within the connecting groove, and the handle rope is simultaneously bonded to the lower outward-facing flange, the lid, and the upper flange via an adhesive layer 9. This improves the reliability of the handle rope's fixation.
