Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tableware technology and relates to a foldable dinner plate. Background Technology

[0002] A plate is a container used to hold food. Existing plates are generally bowl-shaped or box-shaped, and their sizes are fixed. When different sizes of food need to be served, multiple plates of different sizes need to be purchased, which is not very practical and easily leads to waste. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems with existing dinner plates by proposing a dinner plate that can be folded into different sizes as needed.

[0004] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0005] A foldable plate, characterized in that it is formed by folding a flat sheet of material, and the folded plate is a rectangular box-shaped structure with one side open;

[0006] The sheet is provided with multiple sets of crease lines. Each set of crease lines includes two horizontal crease lines and two vertical crease lines distributed in a grid pattern, and four diagonal lines set at the top corner of the sheet. The inner ends of the diagonal lines intersect with the horizontal and vertical crease lines, and their outer ends extend outward at a 45° angle.

[0007] The two horizontal fold lines and the two vertical fold lines enclose a support area, four surrounding areas, and four corner areas. The diagonal lines are located within the corner areas. The corner areas are folded and overlapped along the diagonal lines. The four surrounding areas are folded upwards around the horizontal and vertical fold lines until they are perpendicular to the support area. The support area and the four surrounding areas enclose a cavity that can be used to store objects.

[0008] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the size of the supporting surface formed by each set of fold lines is different.

[0009] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the corner area is folded in half to form a flange, and the four flanges are folded and glued to the edge area.

[0010] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the supporting area, the four surrounding areas, and the four corner areas are all rectangular in shape, and the four surrounding areas are distributed in pairs in a mirror symmetrical manner, as are the four corner areas.

[0011] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the corner area is square in shape, with the outer end of the diagonal line extending to the outer apex of the corner area; the folded edge is triangular in shape.

[0012] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the corner area is rectangular in shape, with the outer end of the diagonal line extending to the long side of the corner area; the folded edge is formed as an isosceles trapezoid.

[0013] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the crease line also includes an outward fold line, the two ends of which are connected to the two outer endpoints of two diagonal lines respectively; after the four edging areas are folded upward, the height of two of the edging areas is greater than the height of the other two edging areas. The folded edges are then pressed against the higher edging areas, and the excess part of the higher edging areas is folded outward along the outward fold line so that the four edging areas are at the same height.

[0014] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the portion of the high rim that extends beyond the edge folds outward along the outward fold line and is then glued and fixed to the rim itself.

[0015] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the folded edge is fixed to the rim area by double-sided adhesive.

[0016] In the aforementioned foldable plate, the sheet material is food-grade paper.

[0017] In one of the aforementioned foldable plates, the crease lines are pre-formed on the sheet material and then stamped.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. Disposable plates are completely flat sheets before they are formed, which can effectively save storage space and transportation costs;

[0020] 2. By setting stamping crease lines on the sheet material, the plate can be quickly formed and the structure of the plate can be made more stable;

[0021] 3. By setting multiple sets of crease lines on a single sheet of material, lunch boxes of different sizes can be made. Users can choose one set of crease lines to fold according to their needs.

[0022] 4. The plates are made of food-grade paper material, which is more environmentally friendly. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the foldable plate of this utility model is formed by folding a flat sheet 1. The folded plate is a rectangular box-shaped structure with one open side. The sheet 1 has multiple sets of crease lines. Each set of crease lines includes two horizontal crease lines 2 and two vertical crease lines 3 arranged in a grid pattern, and four diagonal lines 4 located at the top corner of the sheet 1. The inner ends of the diagonal lines 4 intersect with the horizontal crease lines 2 and the vertical crease lines 3, and their outer ends extend outward at a 45° angle. The sheet 1 is an food-grade paper sheet. The crease lines are pre-formed on the sheet 1 and stamped into shape.

[0037] The two horizontal fold lines 2 and the two vertical fold lines 3 enclose a support area 5, four surrounding areas 6 and four corner areas 7. The diagonal line 4 is located inside the corner area 7. The corner area 7 is folded and overlapped along the diagonal line 4. The four surrounding areas 6 are folded upward around the horizontal fold lines 2 and the vertical fold lines 3 until they are perpendicular to the support area 5. The support area 5 and the four surrounding areas 6 enclose a cavity that can be used to store objects.

[0038] The size of the supporting surface formed by each set of crease lines is different. The supporting area 5, the four surrounding areas 6 and the four corner areas 7 are all rectangular in shape, and the four surrounding areas 6 are distributed in pairs in a mirror symmetrical arrangement, as are the four corner areas 7.

[0039] This embodiment selects Figure 3 The crease lines are folded, and in this embodiment, the folded corner area 7 is square, with the outer end of the diagonal line 4 extending to the outer apex corner of the folded corner area 7. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the corner area 7 is folded in half to form a flange 8. The corner area 7 is folded and overlapped along the diagonal line 4, and the flange 8 is triangular in shape. Figure 4 As shown, the four flanges 8 are folded over and then glued to the edge area 6. The flanges 8 are glued to the edge area 6 with double-sided adhesive.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] Unlike Example 1, this example selects... Figure 5 Fold along the crease line, such as Figure 6 As shown, the four folded edges 8 are folded and glued to the edge area 6. The supporting surface of the lunch box in this embodiment is larger than that of the lunch box in embodiment 1.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] Unlike Example 1, this example selects... Figure 7 The crease line is folded over, and in this embodiment, the folded corner area 7 is rectangular, with the outer end of the diagonal line 4 extending to the long side of the folded corner area 7; as shown Figure 8 As shown, the corner area 7 is folded and overlapped along the diagonal line 4, and the flange 8 is formed as an isosceles trapezoid.

[0044] In this embodiment, the crease line also includes an outward fold line 9, the two ends of which are connected to the two outer endpoints of the two diagonal lines 4, respectively; for example Figure 9 As shown, after the four border areas 6 are folded upwards, the height of two of the border areas 6 is greater than the height of the other two border areas 6. The folded edge 8 is then folded and pressed against the higher border area 6, as shown. Figure 10 As shown, the portion of the higher perimeter 6 that extends beyond the fold line 9 is then folded outwards to make the height of the four perimeter 6 consistent.

[0045] The portion of the high rim 6 that extends beyond the rim 6 can be folded outwards along the outward fold line 9 and then used as a plate; alternatively, the excess portion can be folded and glued to the rim 6 itself for a more secure fit.
