Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage containers, specifically to a food storage lid and a food storage box. Background Technology

[0002] To preserve fruits, vegetables, meats, and other foods for extended periods and prevent spoilage, people typically use airtight food containers. Existing food containers usually consist of a body and a lid. The lid has a rubber seal to ensure a tight seal with the inner wall of the container. By fastening the lid over the opening of the body, air is isolated from the inside and outside of the container, achieving the purpose of food preservation. This also contributes to the container's clean and aesthetically pleasing appearance. However, because the lids are primarily made of hard materials such as glass and plastic, opening a sealed container is often difficult. Users often need to forcefully pry open the lid from a corner or use other tools, which is time-consuming, laborious, inconvenient, and prone to damaging the lid, resulting in a poor user experience. Other methods use fastening mechanisms such as snap-on designs to secure the lid; however, these are often more complex to manufacture, more expensive, and also compromise the overall aesthetic appeal of the food container. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the problems existing in the background art mentioned above, and to provide a food storage box lid with a simple structure that makes it easy to open and operate, as well as a food storage box with the above-mentioned food storage box lid.

[0004] In one aspect, this utility model provides a food storage container lid, including a lid body and a sealing rim. The sealing rim is arranged around the outer edge of the lid body and is sealed to the lid body. The sealing rim is provided with a sealing ring that seals with the opening of the container body. At least one corner of the lid body is provided with a notch that is recessed into the inner side of the lid body. The sealing rim extends inward to form a lifting part that covers the area of ​​the notch. The lifting part adopts a flexible structure.

[0005] Preferably, the upper surface of the lifting part is higher than the upper surface of the cover.

[0006] Preferably, the upper surface of the lifting part is further provided with fold lines that facilitate the upward bending of the lifting part.

[0007] Preferably, the lifting portion protrudes outward toward the sealing edge to form a gripping portion.

[0008] Preferably, the upper surface of the lifting part is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0009] Preferably, the notch is located at a corner on the diagonal of the cover.

[0010] Preferably, the notch is a rectangular notch, and the opening portion is a rectangle that matches the shape of the notch.

[0011] Preferably, the notch is an arc-shaped notch, and the opening part is a circle that matches the shape of the notch.

[0012] Preferably, the notch is a triangular notch, and the opening part is a triangle that matches the shape of the notch.

[0013] In another aspect, this utility model provides a food storage box, including the aforementioned food storage box lid and box body, wherein the food storage box lid covers the opening above the box body.

[0014] The food storage container lid of this utility model achieves a sealing effect on the container body through a sealing ring and a sealing fit at the opening of the container body. By setting a notch at the corner of the lid body that is recessed inward, the sealing edge extends inward to the corresponding notch position to form a flexible lifting part that covers the notch area. The sealing connection between the lifting part and the lid body is located inside the opening of the container body, so that the lifting part is suitable for bending and deforming inward, which is a position that makes it easy for the user to open the lid. When you need to open a sealed food storage container, you can simply pinch the lifting part located on the outer edge of the lid with your fingers and lift it upwards. This allows the lifting part to be easily lifted and separated from the opening of the container, creating a larger point of force. Then, continue to pull the lifting part outwards, causing the rest of the lid to gradually detach from the container, thus opening the food storage container. Its structure is simple, its manufacturing cost is low, and its appearance is good. No large amount of manpower or other tools are needed when opening the lid, making the operation convenient and effortless. Furthermore, the force applied when opening the lid is transmitted to the edge of the lid through the flexible lifting part, which can effectively avoid stress concentration at a single point and damage to the lid.

[0032] This utility model proposes a food storage box lid and a food storage box.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the food storage container lid includes a lid body 1 and a sealing edge 2. The sealing edge 2 is arranged around the outer edge of the lid body 1 and is sealed to the lid body 1. The sealing edge 2 is provided with a sealing ring 21 that seals with the opening of the container body 3. The sealing edge 2 and the sealing ring 21 thereon are usually made of elastic components suitable for elastic deformation, such as silicone rings, so that they are in close contact with the inner wall of the container body 3 to better isolate the air inside and outside the container body 3. At least one corner of the lid body 1 is provided with a notch 11 that is recessed inward to the inside of the lid body 1. The sealing edge 2 extends inward to form a lifting part 22 that covers the area of ​​the notch 11. The lifting part 22 adopts a flexible structure. Specifically, the flexible structural material used for the lifting part 22 can be silicone, rubber or other soft materials suitable for bending deformation, so that the lifting part 22 is easy to open and can seal with the opening of the container body to ensure that the sealing effect of the food storage container is not affected. The shape of the lifting part 22 matches the corresponding notch 11 on the lid 1, ensuring a sealed connection between the lifting part 22 and the lid 1. The lid can be made of glass, which is aesthetically pleasing and allows the user to directly observe the food inside the container through the glass lid; of course, the lid can also be made of other materials such as plastic or metal. The shape of the food storage container lid and the corresponding opening of the container body can be rectangular, circular, or other shapes, which will not be specifically described here.

[0034] To achieve a better visual effect and to make the opening mechanism 22 easier to open, please refer to... Figure 3 As shown, the notch 11 is positioned at the corner of the lid 1, located diagonally, so that the lifting part 22 covers the original corner position of the lid 1 as the force application position for opening the lid, making the opening operation more convenient. Furthermore, the shape of the notch 11 recessed inwards towards the lid 1 can be customized according to actual needs to achieve different aesthetic effects for the food storage lid, meeting the needs of different users. For example, refer to... Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the notch 11 is designed as a triangular notch, and the lifting part 22 is a triangle that matches the shape of the notch. Specifically, it can be arranged as follows: Figure 3 The dotted line indicates a chamfered corner design for the lid, with a triangular notch placed at one corner. The opening mechanism fills this area, allowing it to better lift the rest of the lid away from the box opening when opened. (See also...) Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the notch 11 is set as an arc-shaped notch, and the lifting part 22 is a circle that matches the shape of the notch, which improves the aesthetics; you can also refer to Figures 7 to 12 As shown, the notch 11 is set as a rectangular notch, and the lifting part 22 is a rectangle that matches the shape of the notch. The specific style of the notch can be as follows: Figure 7 The square shown can also be Figure 9 or Figure 11 The rectangles shown present different aesthetic effects. It is understood that the specific location and shape of the notch are not limited to the styles given in the above embodiments, and other styles can also be used.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, the upper surface of the lifting part 22 is higher than the upper surface of the cover 1, so that the lifting part 22 protrudes relative to the cover 1, making it easier for the user to grasp the lifting part 22. (Refer to...) Figure 3 , Figure 4 The upper surface of the lifting part 22 is also provided with a fold line 23 that facilitates the upward bending of the lifting part 22. The position of the fold line 23 can be set according to the bending situation of the lifting part 22 when opening the cover, so that when the user opens the lifting part 22, the lifting part 22 can be bent along the fold line 23, making the opening of the lifting part 22 easier and more convenient. Figure 4 The lifting part 22 protrudes outward from the sealing edge 2 to form a gripping part 24, which is positioned on the outer side of the lid and body 3 of the food storage container. When opening the lifting part 22, the user can directly pinch the protruding gripping part 24 with their fingers and lift the lifting part 22 towards the inside of the lid, making it easier for the user to open the lid. In addition, the upper surface of the lifting part 22 may also be provided with anti-slip texture to reduce slippage and ensure that the user can open the lid more steadily.

[0036] As another aspect of this utility model, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, a food storage container is also provided, including the aforementioned container lid and container body 3. The shape of the opening of the container body is adapted to the shape of the container lid, so that the container lid can fit comfortably over the opening of the container body 3. In the above-mentioned food storage container, the sealing ring 21 located on the container lid and the sealing engagement with the opening of the container body achieve a sealing effect on the container body, ensuring long-term food storage. The container lid has a notch 11 recessed inward at the corner of the lid body 1, and the sealing edge 2 extends inward corresponding to the notch 11 to form a flexible opening part 22 covering the area of ​​the notch 11. The sealing connection between the opening part 22 and the lid body 1 is located inside the opening of the container body, making the opening part 22 suitable for bending and deforming inward, so as to provide a position for the user to open the lid and apply force, providing the user with sufficient force application surface. When using this food storage container for sealing, simply attach the lid to the opening of the container. The sealing ring 21 of the sealing edge 2 will seal against the inner wall of the opening, and the lifting part 22 will also press and cover the area of ​​the notch 11, thereby blocking the airflow between the inside and outside of the container and achieving a seal on the internal space of the container. When it is necessary to open the sealed food storage container, the user can directly pinch the lifting part 22 located on the outer edge of the lid 1 with their fingers and lift it upwards, so that the lifting part 22 can be easily lifted and separated from the opening of the container, forming a larger point of force. At this time, a channel for air to enter and exit is formed in the area near the notch 11, so that the air inside and outside the container 3 can be connected, thereby relieving the negative pressure inside the container 3 and making the opening operation easier. The user can continue to pull the lifting part 22 outwards, so that the other parts of the food storage container lid will also gradually separate from the opening of the container, thereby realizing the opening of the food storage container. Its structure is simple, the manufacturing cost is low, and the appearance is good. No large amount of manpower or other tools are needed when opening the lid. The opening operation is convenient and effortless. When opening the lid, the force is transmitted to the edge of the lid 1 through the flexible lifting part 22, which can effectively avoid stress concentration at a single point and damage to the lid 1.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the concept of the present utility model and using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
