Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a locking device for a lid of a pickle container.

(Prior art) A pickle container is generally composed of a container body and a lid body, and a pressure plate is attached to the lid body, and the container body and the lid body are engaged to lower the pressure plate, and the inside of the container is lowered. The vegetables are pressed to make pickles.

The device for engaging the container body and the lid body in the above-mentioned pickle maker includes means (actual) for protruding a rotation stopper arm on the container body and positioning the tip of the rotation stopper arm in a recess in the lid body. Kosho 55-
(Refer to Publication No. 12704), protrusions are provided intermittently on the outer circumference of the upper edge of the container body, and similar protrusions are also formed on the inner circumferential surface of the lid body, so that the lid body is covered with the container body. There is a means in which the protrusions are engaged and engaged by rotating with the lid body (see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 57-45827), and a locking plate is pivotally supported on the side surface of the lid body, and the lower end of the locking plate is A method is known in which a locking pawl is provided and a locking protrusion is provided on the container body so that the two are engaged by locking (see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 1983-65).

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Each of the conventional means described above has problems in operability. For example, in the case of using a rotation stop arm, if the rotation stop arm has a strong pressing force between the container body and the lid, force is required to operate the rotation stop arm to open and close the lid, and the pressing force is weak. It is easy to come off, and the rotation stopper arm protrudes outward, which is not desirable in terms of product design. Next, the engaging means by rotating the lid has to hold the lid and the container body and rotate the lid, so the engaging operation is troublesome and the lid is easily removed. In addition, with the means using a rotating locking plate, the locking plate will not come off if a force is applied between the container body and the lid in a direction that pushes the pickles inside the container body and tries to separate them from each other. However, when the pressure on the pickles is small, the locking plate acts only by its own weight in the direction in which the locking claws are caught by the locking protrusions, so the locking plate does not engage by simply shaking the container body. There is a risk that it may come off.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes a novel lid locking device.

The lid locking device for a pickle container according to the present invention includes a locking recess provided on the circumferential side of the upper edge of the container that faces each other, and a locking recess that is latched in the locking recess on one of the lid bodies corresponding to the locking recess. A locking protrusion is provided, the other corresponding part is a notch that reaches the top surface of the lid, and a rotary plate with an end face of a size corresponding to the notch is formed, and is locked to the back surface of the vertical side of the rotary plate. In addition to providing a locking claw that is locked in the recess,
An unbiased plate is vertically provided on the back surface of the horizontal side of the rotary plate, and the corner part of the rotary plate is pivotally supported and attached to the notch, and the notch is pressed down by the biasing plate. It is characterized by having a protruding tongue piece.

(Function) When the locking protrusion of the lid is hooked to the locking recess of the container body and the lid is mounted on the container body, the locking pawl of the rotating plate is hooked to the locking recess of the container body. The lid body is engaged with the container body, and the rotating plate is biased by the tongue piece, so that the locking claw is difficult to come off from the locking recess, and the rotating plate is When downward pressure is applied to the horizontal side, the container rotates, the locking pawl is disengaged from the locking recess, and the lid is removed from the container body.

(Example) Next, an example of the present invention will be described.

The pickle container is composed of a lid A and a container B, and a vegetable pressing board C for producing pickles is vertically installed on the lid A. The present invention is based on the combination of the lid A and the container B. This relates to a locking device. The locking means basically engages the locking recess of the container body B with the locking protrusion and the locking claw of the lid body A, and the relative orientation of the container body B Locking recesses 1 and 2 are provided on the circumferential side of the upper edge, and a locking protrusion 3 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the lid body B corresponding to the locking recess 1, and a position corresponding to the other locking recess 2. is the notch 4, and the notch 4
A rotary plate 5 is attached to the rotary plate 5. The notch 4 is large enough to reach not only the side surfaces but also the top surface of the lid A, a bearing 6 is provided at the corner of the end surface of the notch, and a tongue piece 7 is provided protruding from the top surface. The rotating plate 5 has an end surface corresponding to the notch 4, and has a shaft 8 protruding from the corner, a locking pawl 9 protruding from the inside of the vertical side, and a biasing force on the back surface of the horizontal side. The shaft 8 of the rotating plate 5 is fitted into the bearing 6 of the notch 4, and the rotating plate 5 is attached to the notch 4.

When the locking protrusion 3 of the lid A is hooked to the locking recess 1 of the container body A and the lid A is mounted on the container body,
The locking pawl 9 of the rotating plate 5 is locked in the locking recess 2, and the lid body A and the container body B are engaged, and the rotating plate 5
Since the tongue piece 7 pushes up the biasing plate 10 and is always biased toward the inside of the lid body, the locking claw 9 does not come off from the locking recess 2. Lid body A
In order to separate the container body B from the container body B, lightly press the horizontal side of the rotating plate 5 from above. The rotating plate 5 will rotate and the locking pawl 9 will disengage from the locking recess 2 to separate the two. The connection will be canceled.

(Effects of the invention) As described above, the present invention is capable of locking one side and locking the recessed protrusion.
The other is a locking claw provided on the rotating plate and a locking recess, and the rotating plate is a locking device that is biased in a direction that simply does not come off, making the engagement operation very easy. Moreover, even if the container body is slightly shaken, the lock will not come off.
