Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchenware technology, and in particular to a seasoning jar and a seasoning box having the seasoning jar. Background Technology

[0002] Spice jars are common kitchen utensils used to store seasonings. For convenience, solid or powdered seasonings are usually poured into the jar and then scooped out with a spoon to add to the food. However, because it's difficult to control the amount, scooping from the same jar multiple times is inconvenient. Furthermore, spillage is inevitable during scooping, raising concerns about kitchen hygiene and increasing the risk of tipping over the jar. This doesn't truly achieve a convenient and quick way to add seasonings. Additionally, many jars lack airtight seals, allowing seasonings to become damp if not used for extended periods. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to design a seasoning jar and a seasoning box with the above-mentioned technical shortcomings, which not only makes it convenient and quantitative to take out the ingredients, but also has a moisture-proof effect.

[0004] This utility model designs a seasoning container, which includes an inverted hopper with an opening at the bottom and a cover at the opening. The cover has a discharge port, and a valve device is provided inside the cover. The valve device includes:

[0005] The support frame has a channel connecting the storage compartment and the discharge port;

[0006] A slider, which is slidably connected to a bracket and used to close or open a channel;

[0007] The pressing element provides a sliding force to the slider; and

[0008] The spoon is attached to the lid by a pull-out mechanism and aligned with the dispensing port.

[0009] Further optimization involves a slide rail on the bracket, with the slider slidably connected to the slide rail. The slider has a through-hole; when the through-hole of the slider is misaligned with the channel, the channel is closed; when the slider slides until the through-hole aligns with the channel, the channel is opened.

[0010] Preferably, it also includes an elastic element, one end of which abuts against the bracket or cover, and the other end of which presses against the slider, so that the guide opening of the slider is offset from the channel under normal conditions and closes the channel.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the pressing member is supported by the cover and connected to the slider, and the other end extends out of the cover to form a handle. When an external force is applied to the pressing member, the pressing member drives the slider to slide against the force of the elastic element and open the channel.

[0012] Preferably, one end of the pressing member is provided with a gear, and the slider is provided with a rack along the sliding direction that meshes with the gear.

[0013] Preferably, the slider has a silicone brush along the edge of the channel on the surface used to close the channel.

[0014] Preferably, the cover includes an upper cover and a lower cover, the upper cover is connected to the container opening, the lower cover is connected to the upper cover, the discharge port is located on the side of the lower cover, and a notch is opened on the side of the upper cover or the lower cover near the connecting end face. A support seat is installed in the notch, and the support seat has a through hole for inserting and supporting one end of the pressing member.

[0015] Further optimization involves using transparent materials, such as glass or plastic, to facilitate observation of the seasonings inside the container.

[0016] Compared to existing technologies, the aforementioned container is inverted, with the lid located at the bottom of the container. The lid has a discharge port and a valve device inside. This valve device controls the discharge from the discharge port. The valve device includes a support inside the lid, with a channel connecting the container and the discharge port. A slider is mounted on the support; sliding the slider can close or open the channel, thus disconnecting or connecting the container and the discharge port. When the container and discharge port are connected, the seasoning naturally falls into the discharge port and ultimately into a pull-out spoon, achieving quantitative dispensing. An elastic element compresses the slider, causing it to close the channel under normal conditions. When the slider is moved by external force, the channel opens, allowing the seasoning to fall. When the force is removed... After external force is applied, the slider, under the restoring force of the elastic element, naturally returns to the closed channel state, achieving automated material dispensing. One end of the pressing element that drives the slider extends to the outside of the cover to form a handle, making it easy to manually press to unlock or open the channel, which is very labor-saving and convenient. The slider and the bracket are assisted in sliding by a gear and rack mechanism to prevent the pressing element from causing the slider to jam. The silicone brush prevents the seasoning from leaking at the interface between the slider and the channel, and at the same time, it seals the container in the normally closed state, effectively preventing the seasoning inside the container from getting damp. In short, this seasoning container is easy to dispense and has a certain one-time quantitative effect, so that the seasoning will not spill everywhere, making it more convenient and hygienic to use.

[0017] This utility model also designs a seasoning box, which includes a base located below the cover. The base is provided with a card holder, and the card holder has a recessed area. The cover has a protruding area that forms a limiting area with the recessed area.

[0018] Further optimization involves the distribution of several card slots on the base, with each card slot corresponding to a cover.

[0019] The above-mentioned seasoning box combines all the advantages of seasoning jars, and multiple seasoning jars are installed on one base. Through the locking seat, the seasoning jars can be stably inverted on the base, realizing the centralized use of multiple seasoning jars, which is very convenient. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0026] 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. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it includes an inverted container 1 with an opening 2 at the bottom. A cover 3 is provided at the opening 2 of the container 1. The cover 3 and the container 1 are detachably connected, such as by a threaded connection. The cover 3 has a discharge port 5. In this embodiment, the discharge port 5 is located on the side of the cover 3. A valve device is provided inside the cover 3 to control the discharge from the discharge port 5.

[0028] The valve device has the following specific structure, which includes a bracket 6, a slider 7, a pressing element 8, and a spoon 9.

[0029] The bracket 6 is located inside the cover 3. In this embodiment, the two ends of the bracket 6 are snapped onto the inner wall of the cover 3. A channel 61 is opened on the bracket 6. One end of the channel 61 is connected to the container 1, and the other end is connected to the discharge port 5, so that the seasoning in the container 1 enters the discharge port 5 after passing through the channel 61.

[0030] The slider 7 is slidably connected to the bracket 6. In this embodiment, the bracket 6 is provided with a slide rail 62, and the slider 7 is provided with a corresponding slide groove. The slide groove and the slide rail 62 cooperate to realize the reciprocating translation of the slider 7 relative to the bracket 6. When the slider 7 moves along the bracket 6 into the channel 61, the slider 7 closes the channel 61, and at this time the seasoning in the container 1 will not enter the channel 61. When the slider 7 moves along the bracket 6 away from the channel 61, the channel 61 is in the open state. At this time, the channel 61 connects the container 1 and the discharge port 5, and the seasoning in the container 1 can fall into the discharge port 5 along the channel 61.

[0031] The pressing element 8 is installed on the cover 3. The pressing element 8 is connected to the slider 7. The slider 7 can be driven to slide through the pressing element 8, that is, the pressing element 8 exerts a sliding force on the slider 7.

[0032] The cover 3 has a limiting port that communicates with the discharge port 5. The spoon 9 includes a spoon body and a spoon handle. In this embodiment, the spoon body can be pulled out and inserted into the limiting port, and the spoon handle is exposed outside the limiting port for hand holding.

[0033] In another embodiment, the slider 7 has a through-hole 71. When the slider 7 slides until its through-hole 71 is misaligned with the channel 61, the slider 7 closes the channel 61; when the slider 7 slides until its through-hole 71 is aligned with the channel 61, the channel 61 is opened.

[0034] In another embodiment, it also includes an elastic element 10, which may be a return spring. One end of the elastic element 10 abuts against the inner wall of the bracket 6 or the cover 3, and the other end presses against the slider 7. Under the pressure of the elastic element 10, the slider 7 is positioned so that its guide port 71 is offset from the channel 61. That is, under normal conditions, the slider 7 closes the channel 61, so that the channel 61 is in a closed state.

[0035] In another embodiment, the pressing member 8 includes a movable part and a handle 81. The movable part is supported by the cover 3. One end of the movable part is connected to the slider 7, and the other end passes through the cover 3 and extends to the outside of the cover 3 to form the handle 81. When an external force is applied to the handle 81, the handle 81 drives the movable part to move. The movable part pulls the slider 7 to move horizontally, so that the slider 7 overcomes the force of the elastic member 10 and slides to its guide port 71 to connect with the channel 61. At this time, the channel 61 is opened. When the external force is removed, the restoring force of the elastic member 10 pushes the slider 7, so that the slider 7 moves to its guide port 71 and is misaligned with the channel 61. The slider 7 blocks the channel 61, so that the channel 61 is closed.

[0036] In another embodiment, a gear 82 is provided near the slider 7 on the movable part of the pressing member 8. A rack 72 that meshes with the gear 82 is provided on the slider 7 along the sliding direction. When the pressing member 8 is subjected to an external force, it rotates. The movable part drives the gear 82 to rotate. The gear 82 drives the rack 72 to translate. The rack 72 then drives the slider 7 to slide along the bracket 6. When the external force is removed, the restoring force of the elastic member 10 drives the slider 7 to move back to its original position. At this time, through the cooperation of the rack 72 and the gear 82, the handle 81 of the pressing member 8 also returns to its original position, thus forming a press-type condiment container.

[0037] In another embodiment, a silicone brush 73 is provided along the edge of the channel 61 on the surface of the slider 7 used to close the channel 61. The silicone brush 73 is designed to be higher than the guide opening 71. When the slider 7 closes or opens the channel 61, the silicone brush 73 is soft, which prevents the seasoning from leaking at the interface between the slider 7 and the channel 61 and prevents scratching. At the same time, when the channel 61 is normally closed, the container 1 is kept in a sealed state to prevent the seasoning in the container 1 from getting damp.

[0038] In another embodiment, the cover 3 includes an upper cover 31 and a lower cover 32. The upper cover 31 is connected to the opening 2 of the container 1, and the lower cover 32 is connected to the upper cover 31. The discharge port 5 is located on the side of the lower cover 32. A notch 33 is opened on the side of the upper cover 31 or the lower cover 32 near the connecting end face. A support seat 4 is installed at the notch 33. The support seat 4 has a through hole for inserting and supporting one end of the pressing member 8.

[0039] In another embodiment, the container 1, the upper cover 31 and the lower cover 32 are detachably connected by a threaded connection. Both ends of the upper cover 31 are provided with sealing rings 14, so that the three are sealed together to prevent the seasoning from getting damp.

[0040] In another embodiment, the container 1 is made of a transparent material, such as glass or transparent plastic, so that the storage of seasonings inside the container 1 can be easily observed with the naked eye.

[0041] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the cover 3 and the container 1 are sealed together. The slider 7 and the bracket 6 are located inside the cover 3. The slider 7 is slidably connected to the bracket 6. The slider 7 is provided with a guide port 71. When the slider 7 slides until its guide port 71 is aligned with the channel 61 on the bracket 6, the channel 61 is opened. The seasoning in the container 1 passes through the guide port 71 and the channel 61 and finally falls naturally into the spoon 9 of the discharge port 5. When the slider 7 slides until its guide port 71 is misaligned with the channel 61, the surface of the slider 7 closes the channel 61, preventing the seasoning in the container 1 from falling. At this time, the silicone brush 73 on the slider 7 is at the opening of the channel 61, sealing the container 1 and preventing moisture from entering the container 1. The slider 7 is connected to the gear 82. The rack 72 is connected to a pressing member 8, which extends to form a handle 81. Pressing the handle 81 transmits power to the slider 7, causing it to move. The slider 7 closes the channel 61 under the pressure of the elastic member 10, keeping the channel 61 in a normally closed state. Only when the pressing member 8 triggers the slider 7 to move does it overcome the elastic member 10, aligning the guide port 71 with the channel 61 for normal material feeding. When the pressing member 8 is removed, the slider 7 returns to its position within the channel 61 under the natural restoring force of the elastic member 10, and the channel 61 returns to its normally closed state. In other words, each time the pressing member 8 is driven, material is fed once. Finally, the spoon 9 can be removed, which is very convenient.

[0042] This utility model also provides a condiment box, which includes not only the aforementioned container 1, cover 3, and valve device, but also a base 11, as shown in the figure. Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the base 11 is located below the cover 3. The base 11 is provided with a retaining seat 12, and the retaining seat 12 is provided with a recessed area 13. The cover 3 is provided with a corresponding protruding area that forms a limiting position. When the condiment jar is placed upside down on the base 11, the protruding area of ​​the cover 3 is precisely engaged with the recessed area 13 on the retaining seat 12, so that the condiment jar is positioned upside down on the base 11, preventing the condiment jar from shifting. In this embodiment, the recessed area 13 and the protruding area are integrated with the retaining seat 12 and the cover 3. In this utility model, the recessed area 13 and the protruding area adopt a conventional design, which only needs to serve as a limiting position and has no specific structural limitations, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0043] In another embodiment, the base 11 is provided with a plurality of card holders 12, which are distributed in a straight line at equal intervals on the base 11. Each card holder 12 is corresponding to a cover 3, that is, the seasoning jar and the card holder 12 are in one-to-one correspondence, so that multiple seasoning jars can be placed on one base 11 for convenient use.

[0044] This utility model is not limited to the above-described preferred embodiments. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the guidance of this utility model. However, regardless of any changes made in their shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same as or similar to this application falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
