JP6144746B2 - Lid holder - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention covers a pan with a lid knob that is heated and has water and oil droplets attached to it. Place the lid in a horizontal position so that water and oil droplets do not drip while holding it toward the surface, and touch the edges of the heated lid to remove your hand so that you do not burn your fingers. The present invention relates to a lid placing device for horizontally placing a lid.

  Since the subject of the present invention will be clarified by looking at the conventional example regarding the pan lid holder, the conventional examples within the investigated range will be shown.

  As a pot lid placing instrument, many applications having a V-shaped constricted portion, as represented by JP 2007-190341 A, which is Conventional Example 1, have been filed. In the case of a V-shaped constricted part, a simple description that a lid or knob of any size stops at an appropriate position somewhere in the V-shape can be found. When the lid support is viewed as a whole, it is often approximately M-shaped.

  FIG. 1 is a second diagram among the three diagrams disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-190341 in the first conventional example. Conventional Example 1 uses a plate material, but a generally similar M-shape can also be made of a stainless wire material. In addition, an overall M-shaped stainless steel wire member with a V-shaped constriction is tilted by about 30 degrees with respect to the vertical direction, and 4 pieces of each are continuously arranged, about 4 cm apart. There is also a product called a storage stand that can be placed at the same time. Many of the instruments for placing the lid of the pot in this way have a V-shaped constriction and generally adopt an M-shaped design. However, since most of them are placed so that the lid is tilted almost vertically or obliquely, if the lid is temporarily removed during cooking and placed on such a stand, water droplets adhering to the inside of the lid Or oil droplets will flow out due to gravity and drop from the bottom of the lid. For this reason, there are many applications in which a saucer is attached to the lid stand in order to receive water and oil drops that hang down from a vertically or diagonally leaning lid. In fact, a variety of products with a vertically placed lid with a saucer are on the market.

  During cooking, it is necessary to taste and season, so the lid is often removed along the way. If you don't have a suitable lid holder, grab the lid with one hand and point the inside of the lid up so that water drops do not drip, and try to taste and season with the other hand, or raise the inside of the lid. After holding it toward the top, keep the lid level and try to put the lid knob gently on a cutting board. In the latter case, the hand or arm touches the edge of the hot lid, and it becomes almost impossible. The height of the knob is about 2 cm at the low level and only about 3.5 cm at the high level, so it is very difficult to remove the hand safely from the slight gap.

  If you try to open the lid while tilting it gently while cooking, the majority of the water droplets that have adhered to the inside of the lid will flow down so that most of them will return to the pan. We know empirically that if you turn it upside down and hold it horizontally, water drops will almost never fall off the edge of the lid. After holding the hot lid upside down, it is compact and good quality that allows you to place the lid while keeping it level so that the remaining water drops do not fall, and to pull out your hands so as not to touch the edge of the hot lid There is a need for a lid holder for leveling the lid, but there is no experience in seeing such in the market.

  As an example of the prior art considering the horizontal placement of the lid, an example of the idea of projecting the simplest two linear members and placing the lid there will be shown. Conventional example 2 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 09-266863. FIG. 2 is the second of the six drawings disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 09-266863. Two straight long arms are placed so that they protrude from the wall in front of the gas range in the horizontal direction. Assuming that the diameter of the lid shown is about 20 cm, which is a normal size, the length of the arm is estimated to be about 25 cm to 30 cm. Since it is very large and it is used for fixing walls, it cannot be carried and used on a table.

  Glass lids often employ curved surfaces such as part of a spherical surface. When a lid with such a curved surface is placed with the knob down, the curved surface is substantially supported at two points, and the placed lid becomes unstable. However, if the two linear members are arranged in parallel and horizontally, they will not fall. I just feel that I don't like it.

  Conventional example 2 is a type in which the lid is supported by two parallel linear members, but has a drawback that it cannot be carried by a fixed wall type. A conventional example 3 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-211111 shows that the defect can be removed and carried. FIG. 3 is the fourth figure among the four figures disclosed in JP-A-10-211111. The fact that the lid is supported by two parallel linear members is the same as in the conventional example 2, except that it is portable.

  The width of the finger of an adult male (measured from the base of the four fingers from the index finger to the little finger, not including the thumb) is about 8 cm to 9 cm. If it is smaller than 8cm, it is like a person with a slightly small hand. Adult girls on average are smaller than adult boys.

  The conventional example 3 shown in FIG. 3 has a structure in which two plates are erected on a base plate material and are reinforced with diagonal plates so that the two plates do not fall down. The upper end portions of the two standing plates are two parallel linear members for placing a lid. Since it is a condition that the hand holding the lid knob can pass back and forth between the two standing plates, if the width of the space is about 10 cm, even an adult male can function almost without trouble. In that case, the conventional example 3 is drawn almost in an isometric projection, so that it can be estimated from the figure that the two vertically standing plates are about 10 cm apart from each other. The height of the plate is about 22 cm, the width of the base plate is about 45 cm, the depth is about 15 cm, and two reinforcing diagonal plates are added to the structure. If the structure is put in a cardboard box for transportation, the inner dimensions of the cardboard box and the capacity of the inner part will be calculated. The width is 45cm and the depth is 15cm. It will be in a box of 22 cm and a volume of 14.85 liters. The value is such that seven 2 liter PET bottles can be put. It is difficult to always keep such a large structure on a kitchen or table, and it is also difficult to store it under a sink. The big drawback of Conventional Example 3 is that the width of the base plate is wide and the installation area is too large and the accommodation volume is too large. And because the whole is composed of thick plates, it is not easy to carry anywhere, but it has the disadvantage of being heavy and difficult to handle. Moreover, although it is a fault also common to the prior art example 2, there is also a problem in that the lid is supported by two parallel linear members. Glass lids often employ curved surfaces such as part of a spherical surface. When a lid having such a curved surface is placed with the knob facing down, the curved surface is substantially supported at two points, so the placed lid becomes unstable and unfavorable.

  If the lid with a curved surface, such as a part of a spherical surface, is supported by two parallel straight lines, it is not a fatal fault, but the two straight lines are not parallel but V-shaped. In the case of the configuration, there is a possibility that a problem that the lid that should have been placed slides down may occur. The problem will be described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2002-51922.

  FIG. 4 is the second of the five drawings disclosed in JP-A-2002-51922. When the portion where the lid is placed is viewed from above, it is approximately M-shaped, and when viewed from the side, the entire portion is approximately S-shaped. In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-51922, there is a description that “an S-shaped side portion composed of three horizontal upper and lower horizontal sides and a rear vertical side connecting these horizontal sides is arranged on both sides”. The upper surface portion of the shape is arranged horizontally when viewed from the side. It can be understood that if the cover is placed so that the knob is small and the vicinity of the knob is flat, it can be placed horizontally in the state shown in FIG. However, when a heavy glass cover with a curved surface that is a part of a spherical surface is placed near the knob, the cover does not become horizontal, but tilts so that it falls down in a V-shaped open direction. End up. This shows an initial state where if there is no friction, it slides down in the V-shaped spreading direction.

  The present applicant made a prototype as shown in Conventional Example 4 and experimented. Since the structure shown in FIG. 4 is used by inserting a finger holding the lid knob from the front side of the V-shaped recess, the height of the upper space of the S-shaped structure when viewed from the side. Is about 10 cm so that there is no hindrance to the work, the S-shaped lower space also has a height of about 10 cm. Since it is drawn in almost isometric projection, if the overall configuration is estimated by adopting the ratio shown in the figure, the overall dimensions are about 20 cm wide, 13 cm deep, and 20 cm high, and the center of the upper M-shape The V-shaped depth is about 10 cm, the V-shaped spreading angle is 40 degrees, and the bending radius at the back of the V-shaped is about 1 cm. This was made of an aluminum round bar with a diameter of 3 mm, which is relatively easy to bend, and one horizontal bar was fixed with an adhesive. The two horizontal bars that were made detachable were not reproduced because they were unnecessary for the experiment. When a glass lid with an approximate numerical value of 17 cm in diameter, weight of 280 g, a thin part of the knob of 3 cm in diameter, and a curved surface of R20 cm was placed on the prototype, the lid did not become horizontal and the V-shaped It fell down in the direction of expansion. Although it was barely stopped by the force of friction, the lid began to slide forward and dropped just by giving a slight vibration to the structure. Conventional Example 4 In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-51922, there is a description that assumes a round bar made of stainless steel having a diameter of about 6 mm to 8 mm. However, a round bar with a diameter of 3 mm, 6 mm, or 8 mm is round. The point where the bar and the curved surface of the lid touch is a point, and there is a risk of dropping regardless of the thickness of the round bar. Although it is possible to remove the danger of this fall by tilting the M-shaped part of the upper surface about 10 degrees back rather than horizontally, it is possible to remove the risk of this fall. There arises a problem that the basic part “displaces S-shaped side portions composed of rear vertical sides connecting the horizontal sides on both sides” is broken. There are some ways to solve this contradiction, but anyway, when the structure as shown in Fig. 4 was commercialized as it was, a heavy glass lid with a curved surface was put on it. Sometimes it is dangerous.

In order to prevent the V-shaped spreading in the spreading direction, it is better not to arrange the M-shaped part including the V-shaped part horizontally but to arrange it at an angle of at least 10 degrees if possible. And what is thought to have applied based on such an idea is prior art example 5 Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2011-161183. FIG. 5 is the first of the two drawings disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-161183. The upper surface portion is inclined approximately 30 degrees from the horizontal direction. Although it is clear that this example does not attempt to place the lid horizontally, it will be considered because it is also a comparison with Conventional Example 4. Conventional Example 5 In Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-161183, “Even if the neck diameter of the knob portion is different, it can be smoothly inserted into an appropriate point of the V-shaped recess portion. Is described. There is no specific size or shape in the drawings or texts, but considering the basics that a height of about 10 cm is required to put in and out the fingers holding the lid knob, Conventional Example 5 Assuming that the height of the support column is about 10 cm, the U-shaped stable leg is about 10 cm wide and 10 cm deep, the tilt angle of the lid rest is about 30 degrees, and the left and right arms of the lid rest The length is estimated to be approximately 11.5 cm, and the height from the bottom surface to the tip of the arm is estimated to be approximately 16 cm. The radius of the arc at the tip of the V-shaped depression is about 1 cm, and the center point of R is considered to coincide with the center point of the U-shaped stable leg. Since FIG. 5 is drawn in approximately isometric projection, the opening width of the V-shaped recess is about one third of the total width, about 3.3 cm. It can be understood that a lid having a knob with a small neck diameter as depicted in FIG. 5 will settle down as shown in FIG. However, if you think about what would happen if you put a heavy glass lid with a neck diameter of 3.2 cm, for example, you will see the danger.

  Conventional Example 5 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-161183 describes “loose V-shaped indentation”, so that depending on the looseness, a knob having a neck diameter of 3.2 cm inserted into a 3.3 cm wide opening may be , It may stop where no more than 1cm from the opening. Not all “appropriate points of the V-shaped recess” are preferable points. It may be inserted and stopped at a point where stability is extremely inconvenient. In that case, the position of the center of gravity, including the lid stand characterized by light weight and the heavy glass lid (for example, about 280 g for a glass lid with a diameter of 17 cm and about 500 g for a glass lid with a diameter of 21 cm) is almost the position of the lid. Come right under the center. The position is very close to the end of the U-shaped stable leg, and there is a risk that it will fall down if it is inadvertently touched with the lid or lid rest. It can be seen that it is not possible to make a compact instrument that can stably support the lid horizontally by simply bending the lid placing portion arranged diagonally in Conventional Example 5 horizontally. It can also be seen that the V-shaped indentation is not universal.

  As described in the conventional example 1, many instruments for placing the lid of the pot have a V-shaped constriction and generally adopt an M-shaped design. However, if you try to place the lid horizontally with the knob down, you cannot easily adopt the V or M shape. If two straight lines with an angle are provided, an easy idea that a knob of any size will fit somewhere, and in the case of an angle like the conventional example 4, there is little. There is a risk of slipping off even with vibration. In the case of the angle as in Conventional Example 5, it stops near the entrance of the V-shaped indentation, and even if it touches carelessly slightly, it falls down with the light stand. There is a risk of end. In order to prevent toppling, it is difficult to deal with unless the base part is made considerably large, which is inconvenient because the equipment becomes larger. At first glance, the V-shaped indentation seems to be universal, but it may not be able to cope with differences in knob shape, diameter, or lid curved shape. In the case of the type that puts the lid upright, there is almost no problem even with the V-shape, but in the case of the type that puts the lid upside down and puts it horizontally, the range that can be handled with the V-shape will be limited unexpectedly. is necessary.

  However, there are many applications that adopt the V-shape, and Conventional Example 6 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-296558 is one such application. FIG. 6 is the third figure among the six figures disclosed in JP-A-2005-296558. This conventional example 6 seems to be like a thick circular plate material cut into a dish shape from above to form a recess, and a V-shaped groove is carved there. The main subject of the patent application is the dish part, which can be carried with a leg or base attached to the bottom of the dish part, or a bar-like object attached to the back of the dish part to make it a wall It is described that it can also be a wall-mounted type by being fixed to.

  Many patent applications rarely describe their sizes and shapes in detail, either in order to broaden the scope of their rights, or by using ambiguous expressions. This conventional example 6 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-296558 also has many ambiguous expressions, and the figure is also ambiguous and it is very difficult to understand the form. It is described as “conical shape with a thin plate at the center”, but it is very difficult to understand what is a cone shape by looking at the figure. The expression "V-shaped groove is formed into a letter C" is also difficult to understand. Since there is no figure showing the usage situation, it is difficult to compare with the size of the lid, the size of the knob, etc. It is difficult to grasp the overall shape of the part called “dish”. The perspective view is also vague and difficult to understand. The cross-sectional view of FIG. 6 and the plan view of FIG. 7 are mainly used for understanding. The two figures are drawn on almost the same scale, so they are roughly consistent. And, “The angle of the letter“ C ”was given to the cut”, “The handle part of the pan was sandwiched in the V-shaped groove part”, “The angle of the ear of the V-shaped groove where the handle was fitted was It is a specification that fits the knob of the lid, which the applicant calls the handle, into the part where the cross section is in the shape of a letter C, from the expressions such as “Turn” and “Securing the lid by holding the lid handle.” I can imagine. In general, the knob of the lid generally has a narrow neck diameter on the side in contact with the lid and a large diameter on the side pinched by hand. However, there are a wide variety of actual products, the neck diameter on the side in contact with the lid is about 3 cm, the neck continues to the height of about 1.5 cm, and the pinch portion beyond that is 4 cm to 4 cm in diameter. There is also a thing that can be held as if it is hooked to the disk part with two fingers. Such a lid having a knob whose diameter suddenly changes greatly cannot be ensured by being sandwiched between specific C-shaped shapes as in the conventional example 6, but the conventional example 6 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-296558. Applicants do not seem to have such a knob.

  FIG. 6 is a front sectional view of a conventional example 6 of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-296558. The applicant of Conventional Example 6 seems to ensure stability by matching a knob having a cross-sectional shape with a cross-sectional shape to the cross-sectional shape of the front cross-sectional view. Considering such a situation, it would be good to consider a situation where the narrow part of the neck of the knob matches the narrow part above the letter C in the front sectional view. For example, if the narrow part of the neck of the knob is 3 cm, the size of the narrow part above the letter “C” in the front sectional view is 3 cm. If this is assumed to be the reference dimension of Conventional Example 6, the whole image can be seen. However, comparing the six figures shown in the conventional example 6 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-296558, it seems that the bottom part is also processed like an oblique cut, but the figure is not unified, It is difficult to understand including the part described as “conical shape with a thin center”, and it is not clear what shape the dish is in the end.

  Imagine the overall image of Conventional Example 6 within the range that I understood. The approximate numerical value is a disk with a thickness of 3 cm and a diameter of 13 cm. Make a recess and cut a V-shaped groove with an opening width of 6 cm, depth of 7.5 cm to 8 cm, and an opening angle of 30 degrees vertically into the dish as shown in Fig. 7, and then finish the entire cut surface of the V-shaped groove. As processing, a chamfering operation with an opening angle of 35 degrees is performed so that the cross-sectional shape is formed in a letter C. Conventional Example 6 When estimating the overall image of each type of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-296558 with approximate numerical values, a support column having a length of 24 cm is placed on a pedestal having a width of 16 cm, a depth of 13 cm, and a thickness of 3 cm, and a diameter of 3 cm is formed on the support column. A pedestal type with a 13cm dish is portable. The size of the wall-mounted type is estimated to be about 24 cm from the wall surface to the tip of the dish.

  The height of the knob attached to the lid of a commercially available pan is about 2 cm for the low and about 3.5 cm for the high. If an aluminum flat lid with a knob of such height is placed on a thick plate-like lid holder as in Conventional Example 6, the knob will fall into the thickness of the dish. The next time you try to take out the knob, there is a drawback that it is not easy to hold the knob.

  Up to this point, examples in which the lid is supported by two parallel linear members (conventional example 2, conventional example 3), examples related to V-shape or M-shape (conventional example 4, conventional example 5, conventional example 6) ) Next, an example relating to a C shape will be described, and then an example of three-point support and an example of four-point support will be described.

  FIG. 8 is a first diagram out of the six diagrams shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 09-238855, and FIG. 9 is a second diagram. The applicant of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 09-238855 describes it as “a support part formed by bending the upper part horizontally in a U-shape”, but as far as all the figures including FIG. 8 are seen, the support part is C-shaped. Therefore, the applicant of the present application classifies this into a class related to the C-shape, and will hereinafter be referred to as a C-shape. FIG. 8 shows that the portion that supports the lid is formed in an approximately C-shape, a support column is formed continuously from the C-shaped portion, and an adsorption member such as a magnet is arranged below the support column, It was intended to stand up. Since the large C-shaped part supports the lid, even if a glass lid with a curved surface is placed on the lid, it does not scatter and is stable. If it is U-shaped, it will be nearly double-supported when a lid with a curved surface is placed, so it will be staggered.

  Since Conventional Example 7 forms the support column continuously from the C-shaped part, a part of the support is obliquely cut into the lower part of the C-shaped opening, and the hand holding the cover knob is viewed from above. Or you get jammed when you try to plug in from the front. Conventional Example 7 The applicant of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 09-238855 seems to have selected such a single rod bending process in order to reduce the number of parts and reduce the cost, which leads to a drawback. As can be seen from FIG. 9, if the diameter of the lid of the pan is about 20 cm, which is a normal size, the overall height is about 50 cm or more, and the outer diameter of the C-shaped portion is likely to be about 15 cm. Anyway, it is big as a whole and has a height. If the ball is inadvertently pulled even though it is still on the hook when trying to remove the ball from the state shown in FIG. 9, there is a risk that the ball will fall without being supported by the lower attracting magnet alone. It is very dangerous to place a heavy glass lid on an appliance that may fall over near a cooking pan.

  There are examples of applications for horizontal lids where such a risk of falling is unlikely. That is the conventional example 8 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-336142). FIG. 10 is a first diagram among the ten diagrams disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-336142, and FIG. 11 is a fifth diagram. The applicant of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-336142 also describes a C-shape that is apparent from the drawing as being U-shaped, but the applicant of the present application is the same as in the conventional example 7. Considering that it should be classified into C-shape, it will be called C-shape in the future.

  As shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, in the conventional example 8, if the diameter of the pan is about 20 cm, three pillars having a height of about 30 cm are provided on the bottom having a large C shape with an outer diameter of about 30 cm. A C-shaped member having the same size as that of the bottom portion is arranged on the upper end portions of the support columns. The width of the C-shaped opening is required to be at least about 20 cm so that the pan can pass through. The depth measured from the C-shaped opening is about 26 cm. The opening angle of the C-shaped opening is estimated to be about 70 to 80 degrees from the center of the C-shaped arc. A gourd-shaped support part is formed inside the upper C-shaped part at a position where it is lowered by one step in such a way as to be continuous from the upper C-shaped part. It is described that a small lid can be placed on the inner gourd-shaped support part that has been lowered by one step, and a large square lid etc. can be placed on the outer C-shaped support part. . Compared with the content that the conventional example 7 is likely to fall down, there is a sense of security that the conventional example 8 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-336142 is unlikely to fall down. If you only think about placing the lid horizontally, it seems easy to use. But anything is too big. And although it is too large, there is a drawback that it feels narrow as if it is jammed when shaking a frying pan. Although it is written that it can be assembled, it does not seem to be easy, and the strength is reduced, so that parts that have fallen apart are easily lost. It seems to be very difficult to transport, store and clean.

  As a third example of the C-shape, a conventional example 9 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211111 is shown. This Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211111 is the conventional example 3 with the fourth figure out of the four figures shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211111. Conventional example 3 is shown as an example using two parallel linear members, but the applicant of Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211111 also shows a plan like conventional example 9 in which the lid is supported in a C shape. .

  FIG. 12 is a first example of the four drawings shown in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-211111, which is the conventional example 9. As can be seen in FIG. 12, the shape is simply a cut-out part of the cylinder, and the bottom and top are both C-shaped. Conventional Example 7 and Conventional Example 8 were formed by bending a C-shaped part from a wire-like member, but Conventional Example 9 is a method in which a C-shaped part is cut out of a cylinder or a rectangular plate material. It is formed by the method of rounding. If the width of the C-shaped opening of Conventional Example 9 shown in FIG. 12 is about 10 cm, the diameter of the original cylinder is estimated to be about 15 cm to 17 cm and the height is about 13 cm to 16 cm. The depth as a product measured from the C-shaped opening is estimated to be about 13 cm to 15 cm. The opening angle of the C-shaped opening is estimated to be about 70 to 80 degrees from the center of the C-shaped arc. Assuming the ratio as depicted in FIG. 12, the thickness is about 1 cm. If the thickness is 1cm, it may be made of ceramics or wood, but if you adopt a method of rounding a rectangular plate, you can also use a stainless plate with a thickness of about 2mm. Can do. Since FIG. 12 is a very ambiguous figure, further estimation is difficult.

  The difference from Conventional Example 7 and Conventional Example 8 is that Conventional Example 9 is entirely composed of a single surface. A large planar member that does not get stuck has the disadvantage that it is difficult to slide and handle when held with a wet hand during cooking. In order to make up for the drawback, as shown in FIG. 12, a hole for inserting a finger for handling is provided. And compared with the thing using a wire-like thing, there also exists a fault that the instrument using the planar member with a large area becomes heavy. In many cases, the amount of material is traded per kg. If you make the same size with the same function, if you use the same material, it will be many times heavier to use the planar material than the wire material. Material costs will also increase. Conventional Example 9 has a disadvantage that the cost increases because a planar member having a large area is used. In addition, when a substantially cylindrical object that is much thicker than a 2-liter plastic bottle is placed on the table, there is a considerable intimidation. And because it's just a cut-out shape of the cylinder, you can hardly feel anything like functional beauty, and it is really strange to design it to put it on the kitchen space or the table, which is interesting and unique I can't feel the satisfaction that I get when using something cultural product like it's a little cute, it feels good to use.

  The applicant of Conventional Example 9 shows another method for making a C-shape in the same application. FIG. 13 shows the third example of the four drawings shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-211111, which is the conventional example 10. A wire-like one is used, a C-shape is formed at the top, and a circle is formed at the bottom. There is a description such as a lighter one. Certainly, it seems to be lighter than the conventional example 9 which is entirely composed of a surface, and unlike the surface, it is easy to handle from any direction because the hand can be applied anywhere on the wire-like member. However, if you try to reduce the weight, you may think that the risk of falling will increase, but the outer diameter of the bottom part will be about 1.5 times the outer diameter of the upper C-shaped part to ensure stability. ing. Although the overall size is larger than that of the conventional example 9, a refreshing transparent feeling is given and the intimidating feeling is lost.

  The wire-shaped ones are uneasy in strength, and if they are C-shaped to the bottom, they may be spread or distorted and cannot be placed flat. Raised and stabilized. A C-shaped reinforcing member is inserted between the C-shaped upper portion and the circular bottom portion to improve the strength. Since the middle part is reinforced and the bottom part is a large circle, there is a sense of security comparable to Conventional Example 8. Since Conventional Example 9 and Conventional Example 10 are from the same applicant, it is considered that the size of the upper C-shape adopts similar dimensions. Then, the outer diameter of the upper C-shaped part is about 15 cm to 17 cm, the width of the opening is about 10 cm, and the diameter of the bottom circular part is drawn about 1.5 times the outer diameter of the upper C-shaped part. Therefore, the overall image is about 20cm to 23cm. The numbers 20cm to 23cm in diameter are close to the diameter of a normal-sized pan, and the height is higher than that of the pan. As a lid placing device for horizontally placing a lid, which is a supporting role in a kitchen or dining table, the diameter and height are too large and disadvantageous. Moreover, if an attempt is made to produce the one shown in FIG. 13, it is necessary to weld 10 or more locations. Since welding brings the wire to a high temperature state, distortion is likely to occur, and there is also anxiety that the circular member may be distorted when it is welded to the bottom circular member at a plurality of locations, so that it cannot be placed flat. Advanced technology is required to perform mass production with stable quality by performing welding at multiple locations without causing distortion. Advanced technology is often expensive. The conventional example 10 has a major disadvantage that it is too large, and a disadvantage that the number of parts is large and the number of welded portions is large and expensive.

  In the range investigated by the applicant, turn over the lid of the hot pan during cooking, put the back side of the lid up, the knob down, and place it somewhere while keeping the level, Among those filed under this idea, the oldest one is the conventional example 11 published practical application 60-24252. FIG. 14 is the second of the five drawings disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 60-24252. Conventional Example 11 supports the lid horizontally as shown in FIG. 14 at three points: the apex of the column and the two apexes of the rubber member placed at the tip of the V-shaped arm attached to the column. To do. We have learned that three-point support is generally better for supporting objects. Whether it is a flat object, an object with a curved surface, or an object of any shape, the object will be stabilized if it is supported at three points. Although it can be understood up to that point, the conventional example 11 of FIG. 14 has a small pedestal with a high height and is not devised to adsorb to the pedestal portion, so it is very easy to fall down. Moreover, since the number of parts is large and the shapes of parts are various, it is expensive. Assuming that the illustrated lid has a normal size of about 20 cm, the size of the base serving as a base is about 20 cm, and the height is about 50 cm to 55 cm. And since the center point of the lid placed on the top is deviated from the center point of the pedestal, there is a drawback that placing a heavy glass lid is very dangerous.

  Following the example of three-point support, an example of four-point support is shown. That is the conventional example 12 Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-267717, and FIG. 15 is the second of the two drawings shown in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-267717. The name of the invention is “container for placing the lid of the pot”, and FIG. 15 shows a state in which a ball is contained in the container portion. You can imagine it by putting solid fuel in place of ladle and igniting it, and putting a pot in place of the lid, but this is understandable, but this is a ceramic or aluminum solid fuel stove that you often see in izakaya etc. I wonder if it is a shape. Although the length of the leg portion seems to be drawn a little longer, solid fuel stoves having a cross-sectional shape almost similar to the cross-sectional shape shown in FIG. 15 have been widely sold. It is an application that claims to be able to place a lid on a well-known solid fuel stove for placing a pan, and the toy table with four legs is turned over and the lid can be placed "There is an atmosphere similar to that of filing and claiming." The "invention" that can be patented must be a "new" that has never existed before, but it was written on the website of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, but the contents of Conventional Example 12 JP 2004-267717 A Since it is a publicly known one, it feels like it cannot be patented. The size is estimated for comparison with other conventional examples. Since the fingers pass through the central part of the hollowed out space like a U-shape, if the width around it is about 10cm, the bottom part is a square with a side of about 10cm. The outer dimension of the tip of the column is a square with a side of about 16 cm, and the height is about 17 cm. In order to carry such an object in a box, the inner dimensions of the box are required to be 16 cm wide, 16 cm deep, and 17 cm high, and in terms of volume, there are 4.352 liters. It will be about this amount. No one says that what needs such a large volume for transportation and storage is compact.

  There is no definition of a concrete size in the word “compact”, but in general it is a word that indicates something that is about the palm of your hand. A compact camera is such an image.

  In order to compare the compactness of the conventional example, if the one shown in the conventional example is put in a cardboard box for transportation, what is the inner size of the cardboard box and how much is the volume of the inner part? Calculate and consider whether it is. For each conventional example, the estimated dimensions have been written each time, so the calculation is based on them. For items with a width such as “8 cm to 10 cm”, the smaller numerical value is used for calculation.

  Since Conventional Example 1 and Conventional Example 5 are not a type in which the lid is placed horizontally, calculation is not performed. Since Conventional Example 2 is a wall-mounted type, it is not calculated. The type to be compared is a type in which the lid is placed horizontally and can be carried. Within the scope investigated by the applicant, the following nine cases are such.

Conventional Example 3 is placed in a box having a width of 45 cm, a depth of 15 cm, a height of 22 cm, and a volume of 14.85 liters.
Conventional Example 4 enters a box having a width of 20 cm, a depth of 13 cm, a height of 20 cm, and a volume of 5.2 liters.
Conventional Example 6 enters a box having a width of 16 cm, a depth of 13 cm, a height of 30 cm, and a volume of 6.24 liters.
Conventional Example 7 enters a box having a width of 15 cm, a depth of 15 cm, a height of 50 cm, and a volume of 11.25 liters.
Conventional Example 8 enters a box having a width of 30 cm, a depth of 26 cm, a height of 30 cm, and a volume of 23.4 liters.
Conventional Example 9 enters a box having a width of 15 cm, a depth of 13 cm, a height of 13 cm, and a volume of 2.535 liters.
Conventional Example 10 enters a box having a width of 20 cm, a depth of 20 cm, a height of 13 cm, and a volume of 5.2 liters.
Conventional Example 11 enters a box having a width of 20 cm, a depth of 20 cm, a height of 50 cm, and a volume of 20 liters.
Conventional Example 12 enters a box having a width of 16 cm, a depth of 16 cm, a height of 17 cm, and a volume of 4.352 liters.
The smallest is over 2 liters and the largest is over 20 liters. When you put something in your palm that requires the same storage capacity as a 2 liter plastic bottle, ordinary people don't say it is compact. The applicant of the present application aims for a numerical value less than half of the smallest numerical value of 2.535 liters in the conventional example. If it is made so small, it can be said that it is sufficiently compact compared to all conventional examples.

  In recent years, there have been an increasing number of occasions where a family is surrounded by a table, an electric hob is placed in the center of the table, a pan is placed, and the cooked food is shared with everyone. For example, if an electric teppanyaki is used, the square teppanyaki has a very large lid and a long side of about 35 cm, which is difficult to handle. Enter a kotatsu in a tatami room, enjoy teppanyaki with 4 family members, put meat and vegetables, cover it and cover it for a while. Let ’s eat, mom opens the lid. But there is no space to put the big lid on the table. Mom doesn't want to get out of kotatsu. I don't want to bring the lid to the kitchen sink. When you reach somewhere, you want to place the lid while keeping it level so as not to drop water drops. What I want to do at such time is a lid holder for horizontal installation of a lid that is compact and easy to carry. If you place a compact lid holder that can be easily handled by your hand and hand from any direction, just place it near your back in the kotatsu, the hot lid is turned over It can be placed horizontally, so you don't have to burn your hands or leave the table. When you're finished eating, get out of the kotatsu, bring the large lid to the sink, and place the lid resting equipment on the side of the kotatsu on your table. If it is a compact lid holder, it will not bother you even if it is always on the table. If it is a compact lid holder, you can put it anywhere in the kitchen, even if you have enough space in the palm of your hand, so even if various things are scattered around the stove or on a cutting board, one hand You can easily put them with a little bit of clearance. When you're finished using it, you can throw it into the space below the sink or put it in a drawer on the stove. The applicant of the present application provides a lid placing device for horizontally placing a lid that can be handled in a manner not possible with known techniques.

  The problem to be solved is when the lid of the hot pan during cooking is turned upside down, and when trying to place it somewhere with the back side up and the knob facing down In addition, it is an easy-to-use lid holder that can be placed by simply lowering the hand with the lid from the top. It is lightweight enough to be easily held and carried with one hand, like a part of a spherical surface. It can be placed stably even with a lid that uses a curved surface, is designed to make you feel something new, such as there has never been such a lid holder, and usually on the kitchen or table There is no lid holder for horizontal placement of the lid so small that it can be stored in a drawer with a sense of volume that does not bother you if left unattended, so that the base member can be placed on the palm of your hand Is the point. And when there is a saucer in the center of the pedestal of the lid holder, when the ladle or cooking hash is placed upright, the handle side of the ladle or cooking hash is supported by the lid support member of the lid holder There is no lid placing device for horizontally placing the lid so as not to fall down.

Two arcuate support members having the same center point are arranged so as to be symmetric with respect to a center line passing through the center of the arc when viewed from the plane direction. When viewed from the front, the two arc-shaped support members are arranged horizontally, so that in the case of a flat lid, it can be stably supported in a state where the plane portion is caught, and a curved surface like a part of a spherical surface. In the case of a lid that employs, a curved surface falls between two arcuate support members and is supported stably. The width of the two arc-shaped support members is set such that the hand holding the lid knob can be pulled out from the upper side after passing the hand between the two arc-shaped support members from above. According to the method of bending the lower part of the column supporting the two arc-shaped support members inward as viewed from the front and fixing it to the central pedestal member, the pedestal member becomes very small and the pedestal member can be placed on the palm. A compact lid placing device for horizontally placing the lid can be obtained. Further, according to the method of configuring the outer shape composed of the arc-shaped support member and the support column into an image shape like a ginkgo biloba leaf or a substantially T shape when viewed from the side, the insertion / extraction of the hand from the front direction In addition, it becomes possible to insert and remove from the side as long as the support can be avoided, improving usability. And according to the Example which provided the saucer part in the center of the base of the lid placing instrument, the lid placing instrument for horizontally placing the lid on which a ladle, a cooking hash or the like can be placed can be obtained.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention can provide a user-friendliness that cannot be obtained with a known lid placing device for horizontally placing a lid as in the prior art, and a compact size that allows a base member to be placed on the palm. The main feature is that it has been created in such a way as to be inexpensive in a simple configuration in a method that is preferable in terms of design.

The lid placing device of the present invention can be used with a very small installation area as compared with a known lid placing device for horizontally placing a lid as in the prior art. Even if you are cooking in the kitchen, you can put it anywhere as long as there is a palm of your hand, so even if various things are scattered around the stove or on a cutting board, you can easily get away with a little with a single hand Easy to put on. When you're done using it, you can throw it into the space under the sink, or you can put it in a drawer on the side of the stove because it's compact. The overall feeling of volume is small, so even if you leave it near the stove or on a table, you won't be bothered. A large and square flat lid for a teppanyaki can be stably supported horizontally, and a lid employing a curved surface such as a part of a spherical surface can be stably supported horizontally. It can also be used for horizontal placement of clay pot lids that employ a unique curved surface. The knob formed on the lid of the earthenware pot has a very large diameter, and there is no conventional example that can accommodate it with a compact overall size, so that the base member of the lid placing device for horizontally placing the lid fits in the palm of the hand There was nothing that could handle this.
Since the lid placing instrument of the present invention has a space penetrating in the front-rear direction, it can be applied to a lid having a long wooden tab with a round wooden lid.
According to the embodiment in which the pedestal member of the lid holder according to the present invention is provided with a recess such as a saucer, it is convenient to place a ladle or a cooking hash, etc., and the handle side of the ladle or the cooking hash is arcuate. Since it is supported so that it may fall in the recessed part of a support member, it is convenient.
According to the present invention, it is light and easy to use so that it can be easily carried with one hand, and it can be felt that this is something new in design, such as never before, and It is possible to provide a lid placing device for horizontally placing a lid with a compact size that can be stored in a drawer with a sense of volume that does not matter even if it is usually left on the kitchen or table.

In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, terms and the like for the present invention appear. First, terms such as names and names of parts are shown.
FIG. 16 is a plan view of the first embodiment. In the plan view of FIG. 16, the left arcuate support member A, the right arcuate support member B, the depth D of the entire lid mounting device, the width W of the lid mounting device, the arrangement width w1 of the two arcuate support members, Terms such as the depth d1 of the arc-shaped support member, the center point P of the arc, and the center line L passing through the center point P are used. The support member is a member that contacts the surface of the lid and directly supports the lid. A support | pillar member means the member couple | bonded with a support member in the upper part, and couple | bonds with a base member in the lower part.
FIG. 17 is a front view of the first embodiment. In the front view of FIG. 17, terms such as the left column member A1, the right column member B1, the height H from the table top surface to the upper portion of the arc-shaped support member, and the bent portion r1 at the bottom of the column are used.
FIG. 18 is a side view of the first embodiment. In the side view of FIG. 18, the terms of the height h1 of the pedestal member and the depth s1 of the lower part of the support member are used. In Example 1, the depth d1 of the arc-shaped support member and the depth s1 of the lower part of the support member are the same numerical value.
The approximate settings for drawing are as follows: the depth D of the entire lid holder is 8 cm, the width W of the lid holder is 12.3 cm, the arrangement width w1 of the two arcuate support members is 10 cm, and the depth d1 of the arc support member is The height H from the table top surface to the upper part of the arcuate support member was 10 cm, the height h1 of the base member was 1 cm, and the depth s1 of the lower column member was 6.4 cm. The diameter of the metal round bar used is about 3 mm. Since the metal round bar is drawn around the center of the thickness of the pedestal having a height of 1 cm, the clearance between the bottom of the metal round bar and the table top surface is about 3.5 mm. The reference in the size comparison with the conventional example is the arrangement width w1 of the two arcuate support members. It is a numerical value used as a standard for estimating the size of the conventional example, assuming that the width sufficient for passing the hand holding the lid knob from above to below is about 10 cm.
When the product of Example 1 is put in the box, the inner dimensions of the box are 12.3 cm wide, 8 cm deep, and 10 cm high. The volume is 0.984 liters, which is less than half of the smallest value of 2.535 liters in the conventional example.

In the plan view of FIG. 16, the left arcuate support member A and the right arcuate support member B are disposed at symmetrical positions with respect to a center line L passing through the point P that is the center point of the arc. In the front view of FIG. 17, the left arcuate support member A and the right arcuate support member B are disposed horizontally. The left arc-shaped support member A is supported by the left column member A1, and the right arc-shaped support member B is supported by the right column member B1. In FIG. 17, the arc-shaped support member and the support member are drawn so as to be formed continuously, but the arc-shaped support member and the support member may be formed separately and combined. The left column member A1 is depicted as being bent inward around the bent portion r1 at the bottom of the column and inserted into the base member 1 and fixed. The right side is the same as shown in the figure.
In the front view of FIG. 17, the horizontal portion is drawn so that there is a horizontal portion in the lower portion of the bent column member, but the horizontal portion is not necessarily required. The horizontal part is drawn because it is convenient for drawing. If you draw the horizontal part, you can easily understand the situation by making a hole in the pedestal and inserting the column from the side. If you prepare a base that can be inserted diagonally and a column that can be inserted diagonally, you can design an image that can be inserted diagonally. Of course, it is possible to design an image to be inserted from above, but these are not shown here. Although described as being bent inward around r1, it may be bent into a polygonal shape or the like in addition to a rounding method as shown in FIG.
The product image in Example 1 is considered to be an integral one in which the arc-shaped support member and the support member are continuously formed of a stainless steel round bar, and the base member 1 is a thick wooden disc. And easy to understand. It is an image that a circular hole is drilled from both the left and right sides of the wooden disc as the base member 1, and the end portions of the column member A1 and the column member B1 are inserted and fixed in the holes. However, the material and shape of the base member 1 are not limited. The pedestal member 1 may be a molded product by plastic molding, aluminum die casting, zinc die casting, or the like. When trying to obtain a thick pedestal member by plastic molding, the upper and lower parts are often joined. If a weight is enclosed in the internal space of the parts to be joined, even a small pedestal member will not fall easily. If a pedestal member, which is a metal cutting product such as brass, is used, it is heavy and difficult to fall down. As will be described later with reference to the drawings, a pedestal member can be made even by bending a metal round bar. In that case, the base member and the support member are fixed by welding. Moreover, a metal plate material can be press-processed and a base member can also be made and a support | pillar member can be welded. If a pedestal member whose upper surface is plated like a convex mirror is used, lighting fixtures, windows, ceilings, etc. are distorted and reflected beautifully. The shape of the pedestal member is not limited to a circle, and a quadrangle, hexagon, octagon, and other shapes can also be adopted. A shape that is not a geometric shape, such as a heart shape, may be employed. Circles are only used because they are useful for drawing. When the pedestal member is made of wood or plastic, it is common to fix the metal strut member using an adhesive, but it is intentionally inserted and removed without using an adhesive. It is also possible to make it freely assembled. With such an assembly type, the transportation cost can be reduced. In the first embodiment, the number of parts is three and the number of kinds of parts is two, which has a simple configuration and can be manufactured at low cost. The first embodiment can be used from the front or the back and is highly convenient.

  FIG. 18 is a side view of the first embodiment, which is the same for the left and right side views. As can be seen from FIG. 18, in the first embodiment, the column members are arranged in a straight line in parallel when viewed from the side, but the column members are arranged in a straight line or in parallel. is not. A slightly curved shape can also be used. In Example 1, the depth d1 of the arc-shaped support member and the depth s1 of the lower part of the support member are the same numerical value.

  FIG. 19 is a reference diagram of the first embodiment. It is the figure which drew the state which put the glass-made lid | cover 2 which employ | adopted the curved surface like a part of spherical surface on the lid holder of Example 1 from the front direction. It can be seen that the glass lid 2 is supported so as to fall into the left and right arcuate support members. The slanted ellipse 3 is drawn about 7.5 cm high and 8.5 cm wide, and represents the approximate size of the entire finger holding the knob. If the arrangement width w1 of the two arc-shaped support members is 10 cm and the height H from the table top surface to the upper part of the arc-shaped support member is about 10 cm, there is a space as shown in FIG. There is no. In actual use, the fingers typically touch the left and right strut members lightly, which naturally guides the lid to the center of the lid holder.

  FIG. 20 is a reference diagram of the first embodiment. It is the figure which drew the state which put the glass-made lids 2 which employ | adopted the curved surface like a part of spherical surface on the lid holder of Example 1 from the left side surface direction. The slanted ellipse 4 is drawn about 7.5 cm high and 8.5 cm wide and represents the approximate size of the entire finger pinching the knob. The hatched portion on the right side of the ellipse 4 is the wrist portion 5. Example 1 shows that the entire finger can be freely moved in the front-rear direction. If the knob is removed from the state of FIG. 20 and the entire finger is pulled out toward the user, rightward in FIG. 20, it is safe without touching the edge of the hot lid.

  FIG. 21 is a reference diagram of the first embodiment. It is the figure which drew the state which put the glass-made lid | cover 2 which employ | adopted the curved surface like a part of spherical surface on the lid holder of Example 1 from the front direction. A state in which the lid 2 is displaced in the right direction is depicted. Although the lid is not placed like this from the beginning, when the hand is inadvertently hitting the lid from the left side after placing the lid, the state is shifted as shown in FIG. The inadvertent force applied to the lid works to displace the lid, but does not work directly on the lid placing device of Example 1, so that the lid placing device may fall to the right side. Absent.

FIG. 22 is a reference diagram of the first embodiment. It is the figure which drew the state which put the glass-made lids 2 which employ | adopted the curved surface like a part of spherical surface on the lid holder of Example 1 from the left side surface direction. A state in which the lid 2 is displaced in the rear direction as viewed from the user, that is, in the left direction in FIG. 22 is depicted. Although the lid is not placed like this from the beginning, when the hand is inadvertently hitting the lid from the near side after the lid is placed, the state is shifted to the back as shown in FIG. The careless force applied to the lid works to displace the lid, but does not work directly on the lid holder of Example 1, so that the lid holder falls down toward the back side. There is no.
In the conventional example in which the lid knob settles at an appropriate position if it is a V-shaped depression, the knob is always in contact with the lid holder, so it was added to the lid. Careless force was transmitted to the lid holder as it was, and it was easy to fall. In the V-shaped support method, only the force from the back to the front can be slid and escaped, and the force in such a direction is hardly inadvertently applied to the lid. The main careless forces are from the front and from the left and right, and the V-shaped dent receives the force from these three directions.

If you make the size of the pedestal so that it fits in the palm of your hand, you may be worried that it will fall down when you put a large heavy lid on it, but it is carried out with common sense handling When the lid is placed on the lid placing device of Example 1, the center of gravity of the lid does not deviate from the pedestal, and the lid can be placed stably. And even if some force is applied to the lid carelessly after placing the lid, as shown in FIG. 21 and FIG. 22, only the lid moves so as to slide, so that the lid placing device of Example 1 falls down. There is nothing. However, it is common sense that the lid will literally blow off if a strong force is applied to the lid. Even if some force is applied to the lid inadvertently, the lid holder will not fall down within the range. In the lid placing instrument of the first embodiment, the pedestal member 1 is a disk having a diameter of 8 cm. However, a disk having a diameter of about 6 cm is employed in the fifth and sixth embodiments described later. The present applicant has actually made three prototypes of the examples shown in Example 1, Example 5 and Example 6 and has actually used them for about two months. The base member of Example 1 is a disc having a diameter of 8 cm and has a sense of stability. The pedestal members shown in Example 5 and Example 6 are also rounded around the lower part, and it seems that the actual grounding part is only about 5 cm in diameter and is too small. Still, I have been using the three prototypes for about two months, but I have never knocked down the lid in any of the prototypes. As long as it is handled with common sense, a circular pedestal with a diameter of only about 5 cm is sufficient, and the lid mounting device of the present application does not easily fall down.
If you fall into the idea of not falling down, you can only increase the size of the bottom or make it fixed, and the evolution of the lid holder will stop. There is not yet a lid holder that is easy to carry and never falls down, just as there are no airplanes that will never fall. Although the present invention is sufficiently evolved and miniaturized as compared with the known prior art, it is not a lid placing device that never falls down.

  FIG. 23 is a plan view of the second embodiment. Instead of the arc-shaped support members A and B of the first embodiment, a polygonal support member 6 and a polygonal support member 7 are arranged. Since there is no change in basic dimensions such as the width W of the lid placing device as shown in FIG. 16, the depth D of the entire lid placing device, and the height H from the table top surface to the upper portion of the support member, the accommodation volume is the same as that of the first embodiment. does not change. In the case of an arc-shaped support member, when supporting a lid with a curved surface, the contacting part becomes an arc line, but in the case of a polygonal support member, when supporting a lid with a curved surface, the contacting part has multiple These points are arranged on the same circumference and are substantially synonymous with being supported by an arc. The polygonal support member may be employed when the user likes a crisp shape or thinks that the polygonal shape of the support member is more suitable in design when the pedestal is polygonal. FIG. 23 shows an example in which a part of a regular polygon that is not jagged inside and outside is used, but the polygon is not a term indicating only such a regular polygon. It includes polygons that are jagged inside and outside, so-called “star shape”. When supporting a lid with a curved surface, the inner and outer polygons also have multiple points where they touch the lid, and these points line up on the same circumference, so it is almost synonymous with supporting it with an arc. become. Also, if the apex and valley of a polygon that is jagged inside and outside are rounded, a jagged polygon like a wave shape is obtained. The polygonal support member is a member having substantially the same function even if it is replaced with an arcuate support member.

  FIG. 24 is a plan view of the third embodiment. Instead of the pedestal member 1 of the first embodiment, a ring-shaped pedestal member 8 is arranged. The ring-shaped pedestal member 8 is obtained by rolling a metal round bar having a diameter of 3.5 mm to an outer diameter of about 8 cm. Since there is no change in basic dimensions such as the width W of the lid placing device as shown in FIG. 16, the depth D of the entire lid placing device, and the height H from the table top surface to the upper portion of the support member, the accommodation volume is the same as that of the first embodiment. does not change. The lower horizontal portion of the bent column member is extended so that the left column member end and the right column member end are in contact with each other. In the case of the lid placing device as in the third embodiment, it is preferable that the portions of the support member end portions in contact with each other are welded. The contact portion between the support member and the ring-shaped pedestal member 8 is welded to form a completed body. The ring-shaped pedestal member 8 may be turned up and the horizontal straight portion of the support member may be turned down, and the vertical relationship with FIG. 24 may be switched. The difference is whether the grounding part is a circle or two straight lines. If it is desired to reduce the length of the two straight lines for the purpose of reducing the installation area, the r1 portion shown in FIG. The bending method may be an arc-shaped bending method or a polygonal bending method. Or if you want the grounding part to be four points instead of two straight lines, bend the appropriate part of the horizontal straight part of the strut member to make a small V-shaped or U-shaped leg facing downward What is necessary is just to form a part. Further, the ring-shaped pedestal member is reduced in outer shape so as to fit between the horizontal straight portions of the support members arranged in the front and rear, and the ring-shaped pedestal member and the horizontal straight portions of the support members are arranged on the plane and are in contact with each other. You may take the method of welding a point. The pedestal member is a member that is coupled to the lower part of the support member, and that prevents the support member from being deformed and that can be stably placed so that the lid placing device does not rattle. When the support for supporting the arc-shaped support member has two structures, it is possible to prevent the lower part of the two support members from contracting or distorting and to keep the left and right arc-shaped support members horizontal. It is a member. If there is no pedestal member, the column member will be distorted when it is pushed in for storage or when it is tampered with by a child, and the stability of the ground contact bottom will be lost. The product fixed by welding as in Example 3 is robust, easy to clean and hygienic. In addition, as shown in FIG. 24, the lower horizontal portion of the support member has a certain length, and the left support member end and the right support member end are welded and integrated. Prepare a pedestal member with two grooves 3mm deep on the bottom of a wooden disc, etc., apply adhesive to the two grooves, and push the lower horizontal part of the column member into the groove for adhesive fixing. Thus, a stable lid holder can be obtained. As shown in FIG. 24, the lower horizontal portion of the column member is extended and the left column member end and the right column member end are welded and integrated, such as a ring-shaped base member or wooden Since a pedestal member such as a grooved disk, two U-shaped pedestal members, two rod-shaped pedestal members described below, and the like can be employed, the range of use is wide.

  FIG. 25 is a side view of the fourth embodiment, which is the same for the left and right side views. The pedestal member 9 is drawn as a metal round bar having a diameter of 3.5 mm and bent into a U-shape with an outer width of about 8 cm. It becomes D4. The outer basic dimensions of Example 1 and Example 4 are the same, and the accommodation volume is also the same.

  FIG. 26 is a plan view of the fourth embodiment. There are two U-shaped base members 9 as viewed from the side, and the horizontal lower part of the bent column member is extended, and the left column member end and the right column member end are in contact and welded It is drawn. The left and right support members are directly coupled and integrated, and the U-shaped base member 9 contributes to stabilization of the shape of the lower portion of the support. The left and right support members and the left and right support members can all be bent from a single metal round bar. In that case, the welding location is one location. In the case of the lid placing device as in the fourth embodiment, the portions of the end portions of the support member that are in contact with each other are welded, and the contact portions of the support member and the base member 9 are welded and fixed. In the fourth embodiment, the long horizontal straight line portion of the pedestal member 9 is positioned above the horizontal straight line portion of the column member, but the long horizontal straight line portion of the pedestal member 9 is positioned below the horizontal straight line portion of the column member. It is good also as a structure. In that case, the bent leg portion of the base member 9 may be eliminated. In the fourth embodiment, the long horizontal straight line portion of the pedestal member 9 protrudes from the front and rear sides of the column member. However, the long horizontal straight line portion of the pedestal member 9 is interposed between the front and rear column members. It is good also as a structure which fits. A major role of the pedestal member is to prevent the support member from being deformed and contribute to the stable placement of the lid placing device so that it does not rattle. Products fixed by welding, such as Example 4, are robust, easy to clean and hygienic.

  FIG. 27 is a perspective view of the fifth embodiment. The pedestal member of Example 1 was a disk having a diameter of about 8 cm, but the 8 cm was further reduced to about 6 cm to reduce the depth of the entire lid placing device and further reduce the accommodation volume. As can be seen from the perspective view of FIG. 27, the overall design is very smooth. Unlike Example 1 to Example 4 which are geometrical and simple design images such as circles, squares, and straight lines, it has an atmosphere like the shape of a ginkgo leaf when viewed from the side. It has a soft image. Such a soft image is difficult to imagine from only three views, so it is shown three-dimensionally.

  FIG. 28 is a plan view of the fifth embodiment. Approximate settings for drawing in Example 5 are as follows. The width W5 of the lid holder is 13.2 cm, the arrangement width w5 of the two arcuate support members is 10 cm, the depth d5 of the arcuate support members is 6.4 cm, and the base member The diameter was 6 cm. The diameter of the metal round bar used is 3 mm. The depth d5 of the arcuate support member 10 will be described as 6.4 cm. However, since the arcuate support member is configured to continue smoothly from the arcuate support member, the substantially arcuate portion is slightly smaller than that. The depth s5 at the lower part of the support member is 2.9 cm, and the depth is reduced to about 6.4 cm of the depth d5 of the arcuate support member 10. Thereby, the pedestal member could be made smaller than Example 1. In the first embodiment, the depth D of the entire lid placing device is 8 cm in diameter of the pedestal member. In Example 5, the depth d5 of the arcuate support member is 6.4 cm, and the diameter of the pedestal member 11 is 6 cm. Since it is small, the depth of the entire lid holder is 6.4 cm. Accordingly, the accommodation volume is smaller than that of the first embodiment, and the effect of downsizing is high. Comparing numerically, Example 5 has a width of 13.2 cm, a height of 10 cm, a depth of 6.4 cm, and a storage volume of 0.8448 liters. Comparing numerically, the minimum value of the conventional example is 2.535 liters of the conventional example 9, and the volume of the fifth example can be reduced to about one third of the minimum value of the conventional example. . There was a very big miniaturization effect.

  FIG. 29 is a front view of the fifth embodiment. The height H5 from the table top surface to the upper part of the arcuate support member is approximately 10 cm. Since the pedestal member 11 could be made smaller, the bent portion r5 of the support column could be made larger than r1 in Example 1. The overall softness is improved by increasing the bent portion r5 of the column. In FIG. 29, it is drawn so as to expand a little from the lower portion 12 of the vertical column member to the arc-shaped support member 10, but it is an expansion for giving an organic atmosphere, and it is a condition to expand. Not. You may make it continue from the lower part 12 of the support | pillar member drawn perpendicularly to the upper circular-arc-shaped support member 10 without expanding as it is.

  FIG. 30 is a side view of the fifth embodiment, which is the same for the left and right side views. The height h5 of the base member is about 1 cm. As can be seen from FIG. 30, the support member is deformed in the side view direction, and the depth s5 of the support member lower portion is made narrower than the depth d5 of the arcuate support member 10, so that the diameter of the support member 11 is the base of the first embodiment. It could be made smaller than the diameter of the member. Thus, in the side view direction, the support member formed continuously from the arc-shaped support member has an atmosphere like a ginkgo leaf shape, and is deformed so that the depth s5 of the lower part of the support column becomes narrow. Thus, in synergy with the fact that the bent portion r5 of the support column in the front view can be enlarged, a soft design having a very organic atmosphere as a whole can be obtained as shown in the perspective view.

  FIG. 31 is an explanatory diagram of the fifth embodiment. The side view of Example 1 and the side view of Example 5 are superimposed and displayed. In addition, a hand 13 is drawn, and the hand 13 does not touch the side view of the fifth embodiment. When the hand was pulled out after placing the lid, in Example 1, the hand could not be moved in the left-right direction until the hand was completely removed from the vertical support on the front side. Until you completely get out of hand, you feel a little inconvenient when you actually use it. As can be seen in FIG. 31, the hand strikes the vertical strut on the front side, but the hand is moved in the left-right direction within the range that does not hit in the embodiment 5 having the recessed strut bent and narrowed downward. Can be moved. Although it is a slight difference, it is easier to use than it looks when it comes to usability. In Example 1, if the hand is not pulled out firmly, the column part will be touched. In Example 5, even if the hand is appropriately pulled out, the column part will not be touched. This difference is surprisingly large. Compared with the first embodiment, the size can be further reduced, and the usability is improved.

  FIG. 32 is a side view of the sixth embodiment. Approximate settings for drawing in Example 6 are as follows. The width of the lid holder is 13.2 cm, the arrangement width of the two arcuate support members is 10 cm, the depth d6 of the arcuate support members is 6.4 cm, and the circle from the top of the table. The height H6 up to the top of the arc-shaped support member was 10 cm, the height h6 of the base member was 1 cm, and the diameter of the base member was 6 cm. The diameter of the metal round bar used is 3 mm. Since these basic settings are the same as those in the fifth embodiment, the accommodation volume is also the same. The entire shape formed by the arc-shaped support member and the support member formed so as to be continuous with the arc-shaped support member when viewed from the side is configured to be substantially T-shaped as shown in FIG. ing. The depth s6 of the lower column member is about half the depth s5 of the lower column member of the fifth embodiment. In Example 5, it was written that even if the hand is properly pulled out, the column part will not be touched. However, in Example 6, the range in which the column part is not touched is further expanded and the usability is improved.

  FIG. 33 is an explanatory diagram of the sixth embodiment. Compared to FIG. 31, it can be seen that the hand 14 can be moved sideways at a position deeper than that of the fifth embodiment and at a position higher than that of the fifth embodiment.

  FIG. 34 is a perspective view of the sixth embodiment. As can be seen in FIG. 34, there is a vertical portion of the strut member at the lower center of the arc of the arcuate support member. In Example 5, as can be seen in FIG. 28, there is no vertical portion of the support member at the center lower part of the arc of the arc-shaped support member. In Example 6, since the width | variety of a lid mounting instrument is 13.2 cm, the outer side width | variety of the vertical part of a right-and-left support | pillar member is also about 13.2 cm. The inner dimension minus the dimension of the round bar is approximately 12.6 cm. This is larger than the inner width 10 cm of the vertical portion of the column member of Example 5. This indicates that the range in which the column does not touch the column is larger in the sixth embodiment than in the fifth embodiment even if the vertical and horizontal height values that determine the accommodation volume are the same. This means that if you try to move the fingers with the knobs spread apart, you will not touch the column when you pull it out to the front even if you widen it more than 10cm in width. Usability as a placement tool is improved.

  FIG. 35 is an explanatory diagram of the seventh embodiment. The center of the pedestal member shown in Example 1 is formed in a dish shape by cutting out the circle from above and leaving a thickness of 2 mm at the bottom. FIG. 35 is a front view showing a cross section thereof. Although the lid placing device has a cross-sectional display, the ladle 15 and the cooking hash 16 added for explanation are line drawing display showing the outer shape, and the portion where the ladle 15 and the cooking hash 16 intersect is simply overlapped. I'm drawing. In this way, if the base member is a dish-shaped member with a recess, a ladle or cooking hash attached to cooking oil or the like is placed in the recess, and the handle side portion is placed inside the arc of the arc-shaped support member. Can be put together. The handle side of the ladle or cooking hash is stable because it is supported by falling inside the arc. It can be placed with peace of mind even when it has a circular cross section and is easy to roll. Since it can be placed with the ladle or cooking ladder in an upright position, it is easy and convenient to hold them next time. Thus, if the base member of the lid holder having the arc-shaped support member is a dish-like member having a recess, it can be used as a ladle holder or a cooking tray holder when the lid is not placed. .

  FIG. 36 is a plan view of the eighth embodiment. Compared with FIG. 16, which is a plan view of the first embodiment, it is easier to understand. The left arc-shaped support member A and the right arc-shaped support member B in FIG. 16 are extended upward, and the column member on the near side as viewed from the user is removed. The approximate setting for drawing in Example 8 is that the width W8 of the lid placing device is 12.3 cm, and the arrangement width w8a of the arcuate support member on the near side as viewed from the user among the arrangement widths of the two arcuate support members. 10 cm, the arrangement width w8b of the arcuate support member on the back side as viewed from the user is 5.8 cm, the diameter of the base member is 8 cm, and the diameter of the metal round bar used is about 3 mm. The difference from Example 1 is that the depth d8 of the arc-shaped support member is increased to about 8.5 cm, the column member on the near side as viewed from the user is removed, and only the column member on the far side as viewed from the user. This is the point of supporting the arc-shaped support member. The position and shape of the column member on the back side as viewed from the user are different from those in the first embodiment. By increasing the depth d8 of the arcuate support member to about 8.5 cm, the depth D8 of the entire lid placing device is about 9.3 cm, and the accommodation volume is slightly increased. The value is 1.1439 liters. It is about 45% of the minimum value volume of 2.535 liters in the conventional example. The initial goal of less than half the volume, but less than half, has been achieved.

  FIG. 37 is a front view of the eighth embodiment. The height H8 from the table top surface to the upper part of the arcuate support member is about 10 cm, and the height h8 of the base member is about 1 cm. The lateral width w8b of the space where the column members on the back side as viewed from the user are arranged is about 5.8 cm. A narrow width of 5.8 cm is not a width that allows an adult finger with a lid knob to pass from above. Examples 1 to 7 could be used from the front or the back. The eighth embodiment is an embodiment in which the direction of use is limited without the convenience of being usable from the front or the back. However, although the direction of use is limited, the benefits obtained are great.

  FIG. 38 is a left side view of the eighth embodiment. The right side of FIG. 38 is the user side, and the left side is the back side as viewed from the user. Since there is no support on the user side, there is a feature that a large space is provided below the arcuate support member.

  FIG. 39 is an explanatory diagram of the eighth embodiment. The lid | cover with a curved surface is set | placed on the lid holder of Example 8, and the condition where the hand 17 is pinching the lid | cover knob is shown. The place which put the lid | cover by passing the hand 17 between circular arc shaped support members from upper direction is drawn. Thereafter, the user can pull the hand 17 forward and also remove it in the left-right direction. In the lid placing implements from Example 1 to Example 7, the hand after placing the lid could not be moved left and right as it was. Example 5 and Example 6 improved the point, but some had to pull the hand forward and then move left and right. In the eighth embodiment, the hand can be freely moved in the left-right direction without a pulling operation. This means that you can put your hand in the left and right direction to get the lid, which is convenient when you are in a kotatsu and you place a lid holder around the back. When you are in the kotatsu, your body is not free to rotate, and even if you turn around, it is difficult to move your hand back and forth thanks to the elbows that have stuck around your stomach. However, it moves fairly freely in the left-right direction. In such a situation, Example 8 is very convenient.

  FIG. 40 is a rear view of the ninth embodiment. FIG. 37 of Example 8 is a column member that is vertically arranged in FIG. As shown in FIG. 40 and FIG. 41, the approximate setting for drawing in Example 9 is as follows: the width W9 of the lid placing device is 12.3 cm, and the front of the two arcuate support members among the arrangement widths of the two arcuate support members. The arrangement width w9a of the arcuate support member on the side is 10 cm, the arrangement width w9b of the arcuate support member on the back side as viewed from the user is 5.8 cm, and the height H9 from the table top to the upper part of the arcuate support member is 10 cm. The height h9 of the pedestal member is 1 cm, the diameter of the pedestal member is 8 cm, the diameter of the metal round bar used is about 3 mm, the depth D9 of the entire lid mounting device is about 9.3 cm, and the depth d9 of the arcuate support member is It is about 8.5cm. Most of the basic dimensions are the same as in Example 8, the accommodation volume is the same, and the number of parts is the same. In addition, it is difficult to strictly specify the numerical value of the arrangement width w9b of the arcuate support member on the far side as viewed from the user. Since the arc-shaped support member and the support member are smoothly continuous, the approximate value is obtained by catching the end of the arc. The difference from the eighth embodiment is that a hard image such as only a vertical and horizontal line in the front view or the rear view is changed into a V-shaped unique atmosphere. If the size is the same, the function is the same, and the usability is the same, it is important to have an image of which is better if it is on the table. People who like geometry may prefer that they like vertical and horizontal, but there are many who want to have something slightly different in design. Example 9 is a lid placing device created for those who want to have something slightly different in design.

  FIG. 41 is a plan view of the ninth embodiment. It is desirable to weld around the contact portion 18 below the support member.

  FIG. 42 is an explanatory diagram of the ninth embodiment. A lid with a curved surface is placed on the lid holder of the ninth embodiment, and the hand 19 is pinching the lid knob.

In Example 8 and Example 9, if a recess is provided in the center of the base member, a ball, a cooking hash, or the like can be placed as shown in FIG. In Example 8 and Example 9, the disk-shaped base member may be replaced with a ring-shaped base member. Products fixed by welding are robust, easy to clean and hygienic.

  FIG. 43 is a rear view of the tenth embodiment. As shown in FIG. 43 and FIG. 44, the approximate setting for drawing in the tenth embodiment is that the width W10 of the lid placing device is 12.3 cm, and the front of the two arcuate support members among the arrangement widths of the two arcuate support members. The arrangement width w10a of the arcuate support member on the side is 10 cm, the arrangement width w10b of the arcuate support member on the back side as viewed from the user is 5.8 cm, and the height H10 from the table top to the upper part of the arcuate support member is 10 cm. The outer diameter of the ring-shaped pedestal member is 8 cm, the diameter of the metal round bar used for the arc-shaped support member and the support member is about 3 mm, the diameter of the metal round bar used for the ring-shaped pedestal member is about 4 mm, and the lid is placed The depth D10 of the entire device is about 9.3 cm, and the depth d10 of the arcuate support member is about 8.5 cm. Most of the basic dimensions are the same as in Example 8 and Example 9, and the accommodation volume is also the same. The reason why the diameter of the metal round bar used for the ring-shaped pedestal member is about 4 mm is merely to increase the pedestal weight. In general, the heavier the pedestal, the more difficult it falls. As can be seen from FIGS. 43 and 44, the tenth embodiment integrates two arcuate support members and two support members. As a result, the number of parts in Example 10 is 2, which contributes to cost reduction. Since the integrated support 20 and the ring-shaped base member 21 are fixed by welding, they are robust. A metal plate may be used instead of the ring-shaped base member. If a stainless steel plate processed like a convex mirror is used and the support is welded and fixed and then plated, the product will be very clean and stylish. In Example 10, the column portion was designed in a V shape when viewed from the back side.

  FIG. 44 is a plan view of the tenth embodiment.

  FIG. 45 is an explanatory diagram of the tenth embodiment. The lid | cover with a curved surface is set | placed on the lid holder of Example 10, and the condition where the hand 22 is pinching the lid | cover knob is shown. It can be seen that the column member on the far side has an inclination of about 6 degrees with respect to the vertical. Compared to FIG. 42, the back side is a little closer, but there is almost no hindrance to actual use. Since a thin ring-shaped pedestal member is used, a space can be provided below the hand 22 as compared with FIG.

  FIG. 46 is a front view of the eleventh embodiment. Since it has been described in Example 1 that an image can be designed to be inserted from above, this is shown in the figure. As can be clearly seen when compared with FIG. 17 which is a front view of the first embodiment, the support member is greatly curved. If the strut members are greatly curved, the design becomes very soft. Even in the design of the image in which the column member is inserted from the left and right sides as in the first embodiment, the fifth embodiment, and the sixth embodiment, the softness is increased by largely curving up to the end of the insertion portion.

  FIG. 47 is a plan view of the eleventh embodiment.

  FIG. 48 is a front view of the twelfth embodiment. Compared with FIG. 17 which is the front view of Example 1, it is a design which only changed the bending method of the lower part of a support | pillar member. The lower part of the column member is bent so that it directly touches the table top. When the force as shown by the arrow 23 is applied when the lid is not on, if the column member is bent as in the first embodiment, the lower portion of the column member does not directly touch the table top surface. The laying tool moves to rotate in the direction in which it is applied. If you do not want such a movement, the bending method as in Example 12 may be adopted. Since the area surrounding the four points to be grounded is larger than the ground contact area of the base member, the overall stability is increased. In the fifth and sixth embodiments, the bending method of the lower portion of the support member may be changed in the same manner.

  FIG. 49 is a front view of the thirteenth embodiment. It is easy to understand if the thick pedestal member in Example 12 is replaced with a thin ring-shaped pedestal member 24. The ring-shaped pedestal member 24 is designed to be placed on the support member lower end 25. The ring-shaped base member 24 does not touch the table top surface. The ring-shaped base member 24 is a round bar having a diameter of 3.5 mm. The height H13 from the table top surface to the upper part of the arcuate support member is 10 cm.

  FIG. 50 is a plan view of the thirteenth embodiment. Compared to FIG. 24 of Example 3, it can be seen that the ring is an enhanced image.

  FIG. 51 is a side view of the thirteenth embodiment. You can see that the ring is floating.

  FIG. 52 is a front view of the fourteenth embodiment. It is easy to understand if the thick pedestal member of Example 1 is replaced with a thin ring-shaped pedestal member 26. The ring-shaped base member 26 is in contact with the table top surface. A little vertical part is made at the lower end of the column member. The ring-shaped pedestal member 26 is disposed in contact with the vertical portion and welded. There are four welding locations. A height H14 from the table top surface to the upper part of the arcuate support member is 10 cm. In FIG. 52, the ring-shaped pedestal member 26 is disposed so as to be in contact with the table top surface. However, the ring-shaped pedestal member 26 can be lifted from the table surface such as 3 mm or 4 mm. If it is desired to float 6 mm, the length of the vertical portion at the lower end of the column member may be adjusted. When the ring-shaped pedestal member is floated, the end surface of the lower end portion of the column member comes into contact with the four table top surfaces. Rubber feet may be attached.

  FIG. 53 is a plan view of the fourteenth embodiment.

  FIG. 54 is a side view of the fourteenth embodiment.

  FIG. 55 is a front view of the third embodiment. In the description of the third embodiment, the description was made that the ring-shaped pedestal member may be turned up and the horizontal linear portion of the support member may be turned down so that the vertical relationship with FIG. It was shown as an aid to. The height H3 from the table top surface to the upper part of the arc-shaped support member is 10 cm. It is good to imagine that the vertical relationship between the ring-shaped pedestal member 27 on the lower side and the horizontal linear portion 28 of the column member on the upper side is switched. However, if the ring-shaped pedestal member 27 is simply cut out and moved upward in FIG. 55, the height is lowered by 3.5 mm. If the height from the table top surface to the upper part of the arcuate support member is inevitably 10 cm, the length of the column member may be adjusted.

  FIG. 56 is an explanatory diagram of the fifteenth embodiment. The fifteenth embodiment is drawn from the front direction, and a lid 29 as shown in FIG. 19 of the first embodiment and an ellipse 30 representing a hand holding the knob are drawn. The ellipse 30 is shaded. The support member 31 is greatly bent as r15, and the horizontal straight portion 32 of the support member is very short. If it is desired to shorten the length of the two straight lines, the r1 portion shown in FIG. 17 should be a large bend. The ring-shaped pedestal member 33 is in contact with the table top surface.

  FIG. 57 is a plan view of the fifteenth embodiment. The ring-shaped pedestal member 33 is a round bar having a diameter of 4 mm. As the diameter of the circle gets smaller, it gets weaker and thicker. It is welded in a state inscribed in the front and rear support members. In Example 3, the ring-shaped pedestal member and the horizontal linear portion of the column member are flattened so that the outer diameter of the ring-shaped pedestal member is reduced and fits between the horizontal linear portions of the column members arranged in the front and rear. Although it has been described that a method of welding two points in contact with each other may be taken, it is illustrated because it may be difficult to understand.

  FIG. 58 is a side view of the fifteenth embodiment.

FIG. 59 is a plan view of the sixteenth embodiment. In Example 5, the example in which the thick pedestal member is used is replaced with a thin ring-shaped pedestal member. The ring-shaped base member 34 is drawn as a round bar having a diameter of 3.5 mm. The bottom of the ring-shaped pedestal member 34 is in contact with the table top surface. The horizontal straight portion of the support member is bent as shown in FIG. 59 to form a tongue-like design. The right member 35 can be made of a single round bar, and if the contacted end is welded in advance, it becomes a closed shape, so that distortion is less likely to occur during storage and during work, You don't get tangled when you take it out of the box. When an open-shaped member is stored in a box and is taken out, it is difficult to handle and deform easily. The left member 36 can also be made from a single round bar. The right member 35 and the left member 36 are drawn as round bars having a diameter of 3 mm. Since the right member 35 and the left member 36 are the same, the mass productivity is good. The right member 35 and the left member 36 are placed on the ring-shaped pedestal member 34, and four points are welded to complete. In FIG. 59, the right member 35 and the left member 36 are drawn so as to be in contact with each other, but they may be separated from each other. If the arc-shaped support member and the support member are bent from a single round bar, and bent so that the ends on both sides of the round bar face each other and touch each other, the sharp cut part is handed. You don't have to feel bad when you touch it. It is not necessary to weld the end, but welding is more durable and less likely to deform and easier to handle.
In general, there are few products that are made by bending a round bar called a wire product, and the cut part is cleanly processed, and most of the end part remains exposed after mechanical cutting. It is rare to get injured, but when you touch your cut edge, you feel like you might be injured. In Example 13 and Example 14, although the edge part which cut | disconnected the round bar is exposed, it is an illustration to the last. In wire products, it is better not to expose the cut end as much as possible.

  60 is a front view of Example 16. FIG.

  61 is a side view of Example 16. FIG. The basic dimensions for drawing in Example 16 are approximately the same as those in Example 5. The accommodation volume is approximately the same.

FIG. 62 is a perspective view of parts according to the seventeenth embodiment. In Example 16, each of the right member 35 and the left member 36 can be formed by bending a single round bar, and if the contacted end portions are welded in advance, each has a closed shape. I wrote that. In the sixteenth embodiment, the right member 35 and the left member 36 are drawn as a round bar having a diameter of 3 mm. The right member 35 and the left member 36 are the same member and are used by changing their directions. The left and right members will be referred to as the left member 36 in the future, representing the left and right members. The left member 36 has an arc-shaped support member at the upper portion, and support members are formed so as to be smoothly continuous on both sides of the arc-shaped support member. And the lower part of the left member 36 has a tongue-shaped part which goes to the center direction of a base member so that FIG. 59 may show. The left member 36 has a closed shape. For example, when the left member 36 is taken out into a thick soap bubble solution, it can be imagined that a film of soap is stretched in a closed shape. Although it can be imagined that it is a soap film having a complicated three-dimensional curved surface, it can be understood that the closed shape of the left member 36 can be filled with a surface anyway. And what happens if the thickness of the surface is 3 mm, what happens if it is plastic instead of soap liquid, and the left member 36 and a plastic plate with a three-dimensional curved surface are integrated. I can imagine. Thinking about what would happen if a metal frame made of a round bar with a diameter of 3 mm and a plastic plate with a thickness of 3 mm so as to fill the inner space of the metal frame were all integrally molded with plastic. FIG. 62 shows a three-dimensional CAD. FIG. 62 shows parts used in the seventeenth embodiment. The component alone shown in FIG. 62 does not function as a lid holder. FIG. 62 is drawn as a plastic molded product having a thickness of 3 mm. When printing as a characteristic of 3D CAD, a dotted line representing the roundness of the surface is displayed. However, if all the dotted lines are deleted, only the outline remains as shown in FIG. 62, and the overall shape cannot be understood. A diagram with a dotted line left. In FIG. 62 and subsequent perspective views, a dotted line is left so that the shape can be easily understood.
As shown in FIG. 62, the left member 37 has an arc-shaped support member at the top, and a column member is integrally formed so as to be smoothly continuous below the arc-shaped support member. And the lower part of a support | pillar member has a tongue-shaped part for inserting in a base member.

  FIG. 63 is a perspective view of the seventeenth embodiment. It is displayed as an exploded view. The left member 37 and the right member 38 are the same part. The pedestal member upper side 39 and the pedestal member lower side 40 are the same parts. In general mass-produced products, the upper side of the pedestal member and the lower side of the pedestal member are often assembled using screw members or the like, but FIG. 63 considers bonding or ultrasonic welding. Ultrasonic welding has a short working time and has strength after welding. When the pedestal member upper side 39 and the pedestal member lower side 40 are joined by bonding or ultrasonic welding, a pedestal member having insertion holes on the left and right sides is formed. If you sell the pedestal member with the left and right insertion holes, the left member 37, and the right member 38 in a box and sell it, it becomes an assembly-type lid holder. . Alternatively, if all of the left member 37, the right member 38, the pedestal member upper side 39, and the pedestal member lower side 40 are combined by bonding or ultrasonic welding, it becomes a completed lid placing device. Although the tongue-like portion for inserting into the base member is drawn in a semicircular shape, the tongue may be cut and the design is free. The shape of the support member receiving portion on the pedestal member side is also drawn so as to receive a semicircle, but if the shape of the tongue-like portion changes, it may be changed accordingly. When a vertically divided type pedestal member as shown in FIG. 63 is employed, a space is created inside the pedestal member, and therefore, the instrument may be stabilized when a weight is inserted therein. The pedestal member may be a vertically-divided molded product, or a processed product in which a hole for insertion is provided in wood or a metal material. The combination of the left member 37, the right member 38, and the pedestal member provided with the insertion hole is the seventeenth embodiment.

  FIG. 64 is a perspective view of the seventeenth embodiment. The state which united the left member 37, the right member 38, the base member upper side 39, and the base member lower side 40 is shown. If the left member 37 and the right member 38 can be removed, it becomes a prefabricated lid holder. If it is united by bonding or ultrasonic welding so that it cannot be pulled out, it becomes a finished lid holder. If the die on the upper side 39 of the pedestal member is changed and a ring-like wall having a height of about 8 mm is provided around the upper surface of the upper side 39 of the pedestal member, the upper part becomes a dish shape. It can also be used as a ladle for cooking or as a place for cooking. A pedestal member having a dish-like upper part and having an insertion hole for receiving a tongue-like part may be cut out from wood or a metal material. In Example 17, a polygonal support member may be used instead of the arc-shaped support member.

  FIG. 65 is a perspective view of the parts of Example 18. FIG. The left member 37 shown in FIG. 62 of Example 17 is provided with a hole. This is newly called the left member 41.

66 is a perspective view of Example 18. FIG. It is displayed as an exploded view. The left member 41 and the right member 42 are the same part. The pedestal member upper side 43 and the pedestal member lower side 44 are the same parts. In general mass-produced products, the upper side of the pedestal member and the lower side of the pedestal member are often assembled using screw members or the like, but FIG. 66 considers bonding or ultrasonic welding. If all of the left member 41, the right member 42, the pedestal member upper side 43, and the pedestal member lower side 44 are combined by bonding or ultrasonic welding, it becomes a completed lid placing device. When a pedestal member as shown in FIG. 66 is employed, a space is created inside the pedestal member, so that the instrument may be stabilized when a weight is inserted therein. Example 18 employs a retaining structure so that the left member 41 and the right member 42 do not come off. In general mass-produced products, the upper side of the base member and the lower side of the base member are often assembled using screw members or the like. If the method of assembling the pedestal member upper side and the pedestal member lower side in Example 18 using a screw member or the like is employed, the suspended insertion part as shown in FIG. If you sell it as an assembly type from the beginning, no complaints will come even if you leave it, but if you sell it as a finished product, it will be subject to complaints if you leave it during use or during cleaning. In Example 18, the left member 41 and the right member 42 were provided with a means for preventing them from coming off after assembly. In addition to the method using holes and bosses shown in FIG. 66, the retaining means may be a method of providing a concave portion or a convex portion on the outer shape of the tongue-like portion. In Example 18, a polygonal support member may be used instead of the arc-shaped support member.
Since Example 17 and Example 18 are basically a plastic molded product, if you prepare several colored products, you can change the combination of colors at the time of assembly, It is also possible to change the color of the right member or change the color of the pedestal up and down, so that a colorful product group can be configured.

  67 is a perspective view of Example 19. FIG. The left member 45, the right member 46, and the pedestal member 47 are integrally molded. The pedestal member 47 is provided with a recess so that a ladle or cooking hash can be placed thereon. If there is a recess and the dirt accumulates and you don't like it, you can use a design with a ceiling as shown in FIG. In such a case, it is usual that a thinning design is made for molding from the bottom side. A heat-resistant property may be enhanced by adding an auxiliary member made of silicon resin to the arc-shaped support member. In the nineteenth embodiment, a polygonal support member may be used instead of the arcuate support member. The nineteenth embodiment in which all of the lid support member, the column member supporting the support member, and the pedestal member supporting the column member necessary for the lid holder are integrally formed of plastic can be mass-produced at a very low cost.

  While cooking with a lid on the pan, hold the lid knob that gets hot and has water and oil droplets on the inside, turn the lid over, hold the lid inside upward and the knob downward Keep the lid in a horizontal position so that no water or oil drops can drip, and touch the edges of the heated lid to remove your hands so that you do not burn your fingers. Conventionally, there has not been a lid placing device that can be placed in a drawer as shown in the embodiment of the present invention, and is compact and easy to use so as to be placed on the palm.
