Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a tofu cooker / combined pickle device having a function of making a canape for tofu dishes and a function of making pickles such as overnight pickles.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 In order to remove water from tofu by the conventional technique, a method of laying a cloth on a cutting board, placing tofu on it, placing weights on it, and leaving it for several hours was used.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 This had the following drawbacks. (I). If the weight is too heavy, the tofu will break, and if it is too light, it will not be able to drain enough water, and even if it comes out, it will take too much time. Also, since it took several hours, it was very unsanitary if bacteria were attached to the cutting board and cloth. (B). While I was making a canapé, I couldn't use a cutting board, and moreover I couldn't put it in the refrigerator, which made it a very troublesome dish at home. The present invention has been made to eliminate these drawbacks.

[0004]

[Means for solving the problem]

 (I). The tofu cooker / pickle device is composed of an upper lid (1), a container body (2) and an inner container (3), and an opening / closing handle (5) having a claw (4) on two sides of the upper lid (1) and an upper lid. (1) A spring stopper (6) is provided inside. (B). An opening / closing handle lock portion (7) is provided on two side surfaces of the container body (2), and a groove (8) for taking out the middle container (3) is obliquely provided on the upper edges of the two side surfaces. (C). The inner container (3) is provided with two openable side plates (9), an inner lid cooking cabinet (10), a bottom frying part (11) on the bottom, and a drainage hole (12) in the periphery. (D). An inner lid (13), a pickle inner lid (14) and a detachable leaf spring (15) are provided as parts. The present invention is a tofu cooker / pickle container having the above-mentioned configuration.

[0005]

[Action]

 Put the tofu in the inner container (3), close the two openable side plates (9), put the inner lid (13), and put it in the container body (2). Next, the detachable leaf spring (15) is attached to the upper lid (1), the cover body (2) is covered, and the opening / closing handle (5) is provided on the two side surfaces of the container body (2). Push until it is attached to part (7).

[0006]

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. (I). The tofu cooker / pickle device is composed of an upper lid (1), a container body (2) and an inner container (3), and an opening / closing handle (5) having a claw (4) on two sides of the upper lid (1) and an upper lid. (1) A spring stopper (6) is provided inside and a removable leaf spring (15) is attached. (B). An opening / closing handle lock portion (7) is provided on two side surfaces of the container body (2), and a groove (8) for taking out the middle container (3) is obliquely provided on the upper edges of the two side surfaces. (C). In the middle container (3), there are two openable side plates (9), one side is a convex type and the other side is a concave type inner lid adjusting shelf (10) That is, a plurality of drain holes (12) are provided in the periphery. (D). An inner lid (13) for a push lid and an inner lid (14) for a pickle are provided as parts, and one of the inner lid (13) is convex and the other is concave.

When the present invention is used with the above-mentioned structure, when the tofu is put in the inner container (3), the two openable side plates (9) are closed and one is convex and the other is concave. Place the inner lid (13) with the cover on and put it in the container body (2). Next, the detachable leaf spring (15) is attached to the spring stopper (6) inside the upper lid (1) and covered on the container body (2). The upper lid (1) having the opening / closing handle (5) with the claw (4) is pushed until it is attached to the opening / closing handle lock part (7) provided on the two side surfaces of the container (2).

Due to the downward pressing force of the detachable leaf spring (15) mounted inside the upper lid (1), the cotton tofu contained in the inner container (3) gradually loses its internal moisture, and one of them is convex, When one reaches the concave inner lid adjustment shelf (10) (where 30% and 50% water has been drained), the inner lid (13) stops and the canapé is completed. When used as a pickle container, the inner container (3) and inner lid (13) are not used, but vegetables to be pickled and salt for seasoning are put in the container body (2) and the inner lid (14) for pickles is used. Cover the upper lid (1) with the detachable leaf spring (15), and attach the upper lid (1) with the opening / closing handle (5) with the claw (4) to the two sides of the container body (2). Push until it is attached to the provided handle lock part (7) for opening and closing. Instead of the detachable leaf spring (15) as shown in FIG. 4, a coiled push spring (17) may be attached.

[0009]

[Effect of the device]

 By using the present invention, there is no need for heavy stones, it becomes hygienic, just set cotton tofu, put it in the refrigerator and leave it for a while to drain the desired moisture, Canapes can be made with a much simpler operation than the conventional labor-intensive method.
