DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of each part of the mess tin 1 according to this embodiment. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing an example of the configuration of the mess tin 1 when each part of the mess tin 1 is assembled. In addition, in this specification, "upper" and "lower" refer to the side where the top plate of the lid part described later is located, and the side where the bottom plate of the main body part is located, based on the position of the mess tin 1 during normal use (the position shown in FIG. 1), as "upper".

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, the mess kit 1 comprises a main body 10, a lid 11, and an inner lid 12.

[0016] The main body 10 constitutes a container for holding ingredients for cooking. The main body 10 has a generally elliptical cylindrical main body side wall 20 and a generally elliptical bottom plate 21 that closes the bottom surface of the main body side wall 20. The top surface of the main body 10 is open.

[0017] The main body side wall 20 includes an opening side wall 30 that defines an opening OP1 on the upper surface. The opening side wall 30 has curved side wall portions 40 located on both sides of the longitudinal direction X of the main body 10, and straight side wall portions 41 located on both sides of the lateral direction Y of the main body 10. Each curved side wall portion 40 has a substantially arc shape that curves so as to protrude outward in the longitudinal direction X. Note that the shape of each curved side wall portion 40 is not limited to an arc shape as long as it is curved. Each straight side wall portion 41 extends linearly along the longitudinal direction X. Each straight side wall portion 41 connects two curved side wall portions 40.

[0018] Two locking portions 46 to which hanging handles 45 can be attached are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the main body side wall 20. The two locking portions 46 are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the curved side wall portion 40 located on both sides of the main body side wall 20 in the longitudinal direction X. Furthermore, the main body 10 may have a handle portion 47 that rotates with respect to the main body side wall 20 and functions as a handle for the main body 10.

[0019] The lid part 11 is configured to be able to close the opening OP1 of the main body part 10. The lid part 11 has a generally elliptical cylindrical lid side wall 50 and a generally elliptical top plate 51 that closes the upper surface of the lid side wall 50. The lid side wall 50 has the same shape as the opening side wall 30 of the main body part 10 and a slightly larger diameter than the opening side wall 30, and can be airtightly fitted into the outer periphery of the opening side wall 30. The lid part 11 may have a handle part 52 that rotates with respect to the lid side wall 50 and functions as a handle for the lid part 11.

[0020] The inner lid part 12 constitutes a container for putting ingredients for cooking in. The inner lid part 12 is configured so as to be attachable to the opening side wall 30 so as to cover the opening OP1 of the main body part 10. The inner lid part 12 has a substantially elliptical cylindrical inner lid side wall 70 and a substantially elliptical bottom plate 71 that closes the bottom surface of the inner lid side wall 70.

[0021] The inner lid side wall 70 has an engagement side wall portion 90 that can be engaged with the inside of the opening side wall 30 of the main body portion 10, an opposing side wall portion 91 that faces the inner surface of the opening side wall 30 when the engagement side wall portion 90 is engaged with the opening side wall 30 and forms a gap A between it and the opening side wall 30, and an engagement side wall portion 92 for engaging the inner lid portion 12 with the upper end 30a of the opening side wall 30.

[0022] The fitting sidewall portion 90 has, for example, the same shape as the opening sidewall 30 and a diameter slightly smaller than that of the opening sidewall 30, and can be airtightly fitted into the inner peripheral portion of the opening sidewall 30. The locking sidewall portion 92 has a shape that protrudes outward from the fitting sidewall portion 90 and has a diameter larger than that of the opening sidewall 30. The locking sidewall portions 92 are provided on both sides of the inner lid sidewall 70 in the short direction Y. As shown in FIG. 3, when the inner lid part 12 is attached to the opening sidewall 30, the locking sidewall portions 92 are placed on and locked to the upper end 30a of the opening sidewall 30.

[0023] The opposing sidewall portions 91 are disposed at two locations on both sides of the inner lid sidewall 70 in the longitudinal direction X. As shown in FIG. 4, the opposing sidewall portions 91 do not protrude outward in the longitudinal direction X in plan view, but are formed in a straight line along the short direction Y. This forms a gap A between the curved sidewall portion 40 and the opposing sidewall portions 91. Each gap A has an elongated shape in plan view. The gap A is long in the short direction Y of the main body portion 10 (inner lid portion 12) and short in the longitudinal direction X in plan view.

[0024] 1, 3 and 5, the outer peripheral surface of the opposing sidewall portion 91 has a substantially rectangular flat surface, and is gradually inclined so as to recede inward as it approaches the bottom plate 71 of the inner lid portion 12. The opposing sidewall portion 91 is formed, for example, from near the bottom plate 71 to a position higher than the lower end of the locking sidewall portion 92. As shown in FIG. 5, when the inner lid portion 12 is attached to the opening sidewall 30, the opposing sidewall portion 91 is formed from a position at the same height as the opening sidewall 30 to a position higher than the upper end 30a of the opening sidewall 30.

[0025] The gap A formed between the curved sidewall portion 40 and the opposing sidewall portion 91 gradually becomes wider as it goes downward from the curved sidewall portion 40 (opposing sidewall portion 91). In a side view of the main body portion 10 seen from the short-side direction Y, the gap A has a narrowest width at the upper end 30a of the opening sidewall 30. The maximum width D1 in the longitudinal direction X of the gap A at the upper end 30a of the opening sidewall 30 may be 0.5 cm or more, preferably 1 cm or more and 3 cm or less. The length in the short-side direction Y of the gap A at the upper end 30a of the opening sidewall 30 may be 1.5 cm or more, preferably 2 cm or more and 6 cm or less.

[0026] As shown in Fig. 3, the inner lid part 12 has a portion that is located above the upper end of the opening side wall 30 when attached to the opening side wall 30. This increases the internal volume of the inner lid part 12. With the inner lid part 12 attached to the opening side wall 30, the lid part 11 can be fitted into the opening side wall 30 from above the inner lid part 12 as shown in Fig. 2.

[0027] Next, an example of how to use the mess kit 1 will be described. Ingredients such as rice and water are placed in the main body 10, and ingredients such as meat and vegetables are placed in the inner lid 12. The inner lid 12 is fitted into the opening side wall 30 of the main body 10, and the lid 11 is fitted into the opening side wall 30 of the main body 10 from above. The mess kit 1 is then heated and cooked. At this time, steam H in the main body 10 passes through the gap A and enters the inner lid 12. As a result, the ingredients in the inner lid 12 are heated, and the ingredients in the main body 10 and the ingredients in the inner lid 12 are cooked at the same time.

[0028] According to this embodiment, when the inner lid part 12 is attached to the opening side wall 30 of the main body part 10, a gap A is formed between the inner lid part 12 and the opening side wall 30, so that steam H inside the main body part 10 reaches the inner lid part 12 through the gap A. As a result, heat is easily transferred inside the inner lid part 12, and cooking can be performed in both the main body part 10 and the inner lid part 12. Therefore, multiple cooking methods can be performed simultaneously.

[0029] The opening sidewall 30 of the main body 10 has a curved sidewall portion 40 that curves so as to protrude outward, and the inner lid portion 12 has an opposing sidewall portion 91 that faces the inner surface of the curved sidewall portion 40 when the inner lid portion 12 is attached to the opening sidewall 30, and the gap A is formed between the curved sidewall portion 40 and the opposing sidewall portion 91. This allows the gap A to be formed in an appropriate manner.

[0030] The outer peripheral surface of the opposing side wall portion 91 is inclined so as to gradually recede inward as it approaches the bottom of the inner lid portion 12. This ensures a sufficient gap A, allowing more steam H in the main body portion 10 to pass through the gap A and reach the inside of the inner lid portion 12.

[0031] The curved side wall portions 40 are provided at two mutually opposing positions on the opening side wall 30, and the opposing side wall portions 91 are provided at two positions corresponding to the two curved side wall portions 40. This allows the ingredients in the inner lid portion 12 to be cooked evenly.

[0032] The gap A has an elongated shape in a plan view when the inner lid portion 12 is attached to the opening side wall 30. This ensures that the gap A is sufficiently large.

[0033] In the above embodiment, the mess kit 1 may have other configurations and shapes. For example, the shapes of the main body 10, the lid 11, and the inner lid 12 may be other shapes. The gap A may be provided in other locations between the inner lid 12 and the main body 10. The number of gaps A is not limited to that in the above embodiment, and may be one, or three or more.

[0034] In the above exemplary embodiments, the mess kit may be modified in various ways without departing from the scope and spirit of the present disclosure. For example, some components in one embodiment may be added to other embodiments within the scope of the ordinary creative ability of a person skilled in the art. In addition, some components in one embodiment may be replaced with corresponding components in other embodiments. [Industrial Applicability]

[0035] The present invention is useful in providing a mess kit that can perform multiple cooking operations simultaneously. [Explanation of symbols]
