These trays all include a heat storing material such as a phase change material that can store heat rapidly and release the heat more slowly over an elapsed period of time.
- a heat storing material such as a phase change material that can store heat rapidly and release the heat more slowly over an elapsed period of time.
- a drawback of such trays is that these are not suited for serving food directly thereon but are intended for storing one or more plates with food thereon to enable serving food on these plates at a desired temperature during a relative long period of time. Moreover the use of such trays is generally considered non-appealing for serving food.
- Another drawback is that with trays as described in at least U.S. '391 and U.S. '106 the heat storing material is provided in a cavity defined by a top and bottom shell of the tray, whereby in case of damaging one of these shells the heat storing material may leak out of the cavity, especially when at a elevated temperature (generally about 60° C.) when the heat storing material is in a fluid state.
- WO 03/079869 discloses a plate for direct contact with food served thereon, comprising a slot in its lower surface for accommodating a cartridge of heat storing material therein.
- a drawback of such plate is that the plate and cartridge are two separate items that need to be assembled and disassembled for each use cycle, which is cumbersome and very impractical in restaurants or on large events where dishwashing the plates and re-use of the plates needs to be fast and effective.
