Abstract

SE PRESENTA UN CUBILETE (40) DE CARTON DE BOCA ANCHA ABIERTO POR SU PARTE SUPERIOR PARA HACER PALOMITAS DE MAIZ EN UN HORNO MICROONDAS, EL ENVASE INCLUYE UNA PARED LATERAL (12) QUE TIENE UN BORDE LIBRE (41) EN LA PARTE SUPERIOR Y UN BORDE INFERIOR (21) QUE DESCANSA SOBRE EL SUELO DEL HORNO. EL CUBILETE (40) TAMBIEN INCLUYE UNA PARED DE BASE PLANA (16) CONECTADA A LA PARED LATERAL (12) EN UNA ELEVACION SEPARADA HACIA ARRIBA DEL BORDE INFERIOR (21) PARA DEFINIR UN COMPARTIMENTO DE AIRE ENTRE LA PARED DEL FONDO (16) Y EL SUELO DEL HORNO. UNA CAPA SUSCEPTIBLE A LAS MICROONDAS (48) SE CONECTA A LA PARED DEL FONDO (16) PARA AYUDAR A ESTALLAR A LAS PALOMITAS DE MAIZ. EL BORDE INFERIOR (21) ES CONTINUO PARA HACER POSIBLE QUE SE AJUSTE DE FORMA ESTANCA CON EL SUELO DEL HORNO DE FORMA QUE EL COMPARTIMENTO DE AIRE SE CALIENTE DURANTE LA COCCION. UNA CAPA DE GRANOS DE MAIZ SIN ESTALLAR (50) DESCANSA SOBRE LA PARED DEL FONDO (16) EN RELACION DE CONDUCCION DE CALOR CON LA CAPA SUSCEPTIBLE A LAS MICROONDAS (48). UNA TAPA FLEXIBLE (12'') QUE SE ENCUENTRA SELLADA AL BORDE LIBRE (41) SE EXPANDE HACIA ARRIBA A MEDIDA QUE LOS GRANOS DE MAIZ (50) ESTALLAN, PARA ACOMODARSE A SU EXPANSION.IT IS PRESENTED A BUCKET (40) OF WIDE MOUTH CARTON OPENED BY ITS UPPER PART TO MAKE POPCORN IN A MICROWAVE OVEN, THE CONTAINER INCLUDES A SIDE WALL (12) THAT HAS A FREE EDGE (41) IN THE UPPER PART AND A LOWER EDGE (21) RESTING ON THE FLOOR OF THE OVEN. THE CUP (40) ALSO INCLUDES A FLAT BASE WALL (16) CONNECTED TO THE SIDE WALL (12) AT A SEPARATE ELEVATION UPWARD THE LOWER EDGE (21) TO DEFINE AN AIR COMPARTMENT BETWEEN THE BACK WALL (16) AND THE FLOOR OF THE OVEN. A MICROWAVE SUSCEPTIBLE LAYER (48) IS CONNECTED TO THE BACK WALL (16) TO HELP BURST OF POPCORN. THE BOTTOM EDGE (21) IS CONTINUOUS TO MAKE POSSIBLE TO ADJUST WATERTIGHT WITH THE FLOOR OF THE OVEN SO THAT THE AIR COMPARTMENT IS HOT DURING COOKING. A LAYER OF UNSTOPPED CORN GRAINS (50) RESTS ON THE WALL OF THE BOTTOM (16) IN RELATION OF HEAT CONDUCTION WITH THE LAYER SUSCEPTIBLE TO MICROWAVES (48). A FLEXIBLE LID (12``) WHICH IS SEALED AT THE FREE EDGE (41) EXPANDS UPWARD AS THE CORN GRAINS (50) EXPLODE, TO ACCOMMODATE THEIR EXPANSION.
