Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of lunch box technology, specifically relating to a snap-on lunch box. Background Technology

[0002] A lunchbox typically consists of a lid and a box. The outer edge of the lid has a downward-facing locking ring, which is used to lock the two together into the outer edge of the top opening of the box. However, during transportation, if there is shaking, the lid and the box often deform due to collisions with other items, causing the food to leak out. To solve this problem, this solution was developed. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a snap-on lunch box, which can be opened by pulling up the flip plate after the lid and the box body are snapped together.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a snap-on lunch box, including a box body and a lid, the box body and the lid being snap-on connected, a flip plate being formed on one side of the box body, and a recess being formed on the upper surface of the lid; two spaced-apart snap heads are formed on the upper surface of the flip plate, and a slot is formed on the lower surface of the recess, the two snap heads being snapped into the slot by deformation, and an easy-tear line is formed between the area covered by the snap heads and the flip plate, and when the lid is opened, the snap heads are separated from the flip plate by pulling the flip plate, and the lid is opened by pulling the flip plate.

[0005] Furthermore, an air hole is formed at the bottom of the recess, and an air passage is formed on both sides of the air hole, with the passage between the two clips corresponding to the air passage.

[0006] Furthermore, a notch is formed above the side wall of the recess away from the flip plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the lunch box also includes an inner tray, which is placed inside the box. The inner tray has clearance openings on both sides, which are adapted to the recesses.

[0008] Furthermore, a first annular lap edge extending inward is formed at the opening of the box body, and a second annular lap edge is formed at the outer edge of the opening of the inner tray box, with the first lap edge and the second lap edge being adapted to each other.

[0009] Furthermore, an annular raised plate extending downwards is formed at the outer edge of the opening on the inner tray box, and the second overlapping edge is connected to the lower end of the annular raised plate and extends outwards.

[0010] Furthermore, a downwardly extending connecting ring is formed at the inner edge of the first overlap, and an annular groove is formed on the inner side of the connecting ring. An outwardly folded U-shaped plate is formed at the lower opening of the cover. One end of the U-shaped plate is connected to the cover, and an annular convex ring is formed on the outer side of the U-shaped plate. The annular convex ring and the annular groove are adapted to each other. The U-shaped plate forms a third overlap that extends outward.

[0011] Furthermore, the upper surface of the cover has two spaced-apart protrusions, the distance between the two protrusions being the width of the lower end of the box.

[0012] Furthermore, the box body has a food-receiving groove, and a protrusion is formed in the middle of the bottom of the food-receiving groove.

[0013] Furthermore, a plurality of pressed V-shaped protrusions are formed on one side of the protrusion.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this utility model, after the box body and the lid are connected by a snap fastener, it cannot be opened from the edge of the lid like a traditional lunch box. The lunch box of this solution needs to be opened by pulling the flip plate. During the process of pulling the flip plate, the snap head will remain in the recess, and a pull hole will be formed on the flip plate. The lid can be opened by inserting a finger into the pull hole and pulling the flip plate. With this design, the user can judge whether the lunch box has been opened by whether the snap head area is separated from the flip plate.

[0015] 2. The bottom of the recess has an air hole. When the clip is inserted, there is a gap between the clip and the bottom of the recess, which can ensure that the food container can release air. Moreover, since the clip and the recess are a one-time fit structure, the clip can directly block the air hole. This design can prevent foreign objects or liquids from dripping into the food container from the air hole, ensuring the safety of eating.

[0016] 3. In this solution, the U-shaped plate on the cover extends into the connecting ring, allowing the annular convex ring to engage with the annular groove, thus achieving initial engagement between the box and the cover. This embedded locking method provides greater stability. Attached Figure Description

[0019] To make the above-mentioned features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings for detailed explanation.

[0020] like Figures 1-7 As shown, this embodiment provides a snap-on lunchbox, including an inner tray 1, a box body 2, and a lid 3.

[0021] The box body 2 has an inwardly extending annular first lap edge 24 at the opening, and a downwardly extending connecting ring 25 at the inner edge of the first lap edge 24. The inwardly facing side of the connecting ring 25 has an annular groove 251.

[0022] The box body 2 has a food-receiving groove 21. A protrusion 22 is formed in the middle of the bottom of the food-receiving groove 21. Multiple pressed V-shaped protrusions 23 are formed on one side of the protrusion 22. Specifically, from a top view, multiple spaced V-shaped protrusions 23 are formed on the top, bottom, left and right sides of the protrusion 22. The V-shaped protrusions 23 and the protrusion 22 can support the food in the food-receiving groove, enhancing the visual appeal. The V-shaped protrusions 23 are in direct contact with the table or serving platform at the bottom of the box body 2, with a gap between them. When there is water on the table, the contact area between the box body 2 and the table is reduced, and water will not be absorbed on the table.

[0023] A U-shaped plate 31 with outward folding is formed at the lower opening of the cover 3. One end of the U-shaped plate 31 is connected to the cover 3. An annular convex ring 311 is formed on the outer side of the U-shaped plate 31. The annular convex ring 311 and the annular groove 251 are matched. The U-shaped plate 31 has a third overlapping edge 32 extending outward. After the cover is closed, the third overlapping edge 32 overlaps above the first overlapping edge 24.

[0024] This solution involves extending the U-shaped plate 31 on the cover 3 into the connecting ring 25, allowing the annular protrusion 311 to engage with the annular groove 251, thus achieving initial engagement between the box 2 and the cover 3. This embedded locking method provides greater stability.

[0025] Preferably, the upper surface of the cover 3 has two spaced protrusions 33, the distance between the two protrusions 33 being the width of the lower end of the box 2. The two protrusions 33 can limit the lower part of the box 2 during the stacking process.

[0026] A flip plate 35 is formed on one side of the cover 3, and a recess 34 is formed on the upper surface of the cover 3. Located on the side of the flip plate, the flip plate 35 flips into the recess 34 and is snapped together. Specifically, two spaced-apart clips 351 are formed on the upper surface of the flip plate 35, and a slot 341 is formed on the lower surface of the recess 34. The two clips 351 are snapped into the slot 341 by deformation.

[0027] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, after the box and lid are snapped together in this application, they cannot be opened from the edge of the lid like traditional lunch boxes. The lunch box in this solution needs to be opened by pulling the flip plate 35. During the pulling process, the latch 351 will remain in the recess 341, and a pull hole will be formed on the flip plate 351. The lid 3 is opened by inserting a finger into the pull hole and pulling the flip plate 35. With this setting, the user can judge whether the lunch box has been opened by whether the latch 351 area is separated from the flip plate 35.

[0028] Preferably, the recess 34 has a notch 342 formed away from the top of the flip-up wall, and by setting the notch 342, it is convenient to open the flip-up plate 35.

[0029] Preferably, an air hole 343 is formed at the bottom of the recess 34, and an air passage is formed on both sides of the air hole 343. The passage between the two clips 351 corresponds to the air passage. When the clip 351 is inserted, there is a gap between the clip 351 and the bottom of the recess 34, which can ensure the air can escape from the lunch box. Moreover, since the clip 351 and the recess 34 are a one-time fitting structure, the clip can directly block the air hole 343. This setting can prevent foreign objects or liquids from dripping into the lunch box from the air hole, ensuring the safety of eating.

[0030] The inner tray 1 is placed inside the box body 2. The inner tray 1 has clearance openings on both sides, which are adapted to the recesses 34. The outer edge of the upper opening of the inner tray 1 has an annular second edge 12. The first edge 24 and the second edge 12 are adapted to each other. Specifically, the outer edge of the upper opening of the inner tray 1 has an annular raised plate 11 extending downward, and the second edge 12 is connected to the lower end of the annular raised plate 11 and extends outward.

[0031] The inner tray 1 has one or more slots, depending on the actual needs. Regardless of whether it has one or more slots, its external structure is the same.

[0032] When the inner tray 1 is placed inside the box body 2, it will be embedded inside the box body 2 and the second overlap 12 will be placed on the first overlap 24, thus ensuring stable placement.

[0033] This lunchbox also comes with a bowl body 4. A lid 41 is provided on the upper surface of the bowl body 4. The lid 41 is used to seal the opening on the bowl body 4 and has vent holes. The bowl body 4 and the lid 41 are assembled using a common snap-fit ​​structure, which will not be described in detail here. An easy-open tab is also provided. The bowl body 4 is used in conjunction with the lunchbox.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles and main features of this invention, as well as its advantages. Those skilled in the art should understand that this invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to this invention without departing from its spirit and scope.
