In the related art, in order to prevent the stored pet food from spoiling, a foldable sealed container is generally used to store the pet food. The cover of the sealed container is provided with an air valve or an air hole. After the user finishes taking the pet food, the cover is buckled, and the cover is pressed, at the moment, the container is folded under pressure, so that the air in the container is discharged through the air valve or the air hole, and the air in the sealed container is reduced. If the bottom of the cover is brought into contact with pet food in the container by folding the container, the air in the container can be reduced, and the rate of spoilage of the pet food can be reduced. However, in order to maintain the airtight state of the sealed container, after the container is folded by applying pressure by a user, the air hole on the cover needs to be plugged by the silica gel plug, or the air valve is manually closed, namely, the user needs to press the cover by one hand and operate the silica gel plug or the air valve by the other hand, so that the operation of the user is complicated and the user experience is poor.

A sealed container according to an embodiment of the present utility model is described below with reference to fig. 1 to 5.

As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a sealed container 10, the sealed container 10 including a lid 101 and a container body 102.

The cover 101 and the container body 102 form a sealed inner space after being matched, and the inner space can be used for storing articles which are easy to spoil and deteriorate, such as granular grains, such as beans and rice; or granular foods such as biscuits and pet foods. Specifically, the cover 101 may be fastened to the container body 102, may be fastened to the container body, or may also be connected through a screw thread, and the cover 101 may be directly fastened to the container body 102, and may be provided with a sealing member, so that an airtight effect is formed between the cover 101 and the container body 102.

The sealed container 10 is provided with a one-way valve 103 and an airtight valve 104, and the airtight valve 104 is normally closed, that is, the airtight valve 104 is normally in a closed state, in which the internal space is not communicated with the external environment, and the air inside and outside is not convected, that is, the airtight state of the internal space can be maintained when the airtight valve 104 is in a normally closed state. When the airtight valve 104 is switched to the open state, the airtight state can be released, so that the inside and outside of the internal space are communicated, and the lid 101 and the container body 102 are easily separated.

In order to retard the rate of spoilage of the stored items in the sealed container 10, it is necessary to minimize the air in the interior space, so that the sealed container 10 can reduce the volume of the interior space by deformation, and as the volume is reduced, the air in the interior space can be discharged through the one-way valve 103 until the volume of the interior space is reduced to be substantially the same as the volume of the items stored therein, at which time the volume of the interior space is substantially occupied by the items, and only air remains in the space between the items, i.e., the air in the interior space is less, so that the rate of oxidation of the stored items can be greatly retarded, and spoilage of the stored items can be prevented as much as possible.

When the stored article needs to be taken out again, the user can operate the airtight valve 104, so that the airtight valve 104 is driven to be switched to an open state, at this time, the internal space is communicated with the external environment, the airtight state of the sealed container 10 is released, and the user can easily separate the cover 101 from the container body 102, and then take out the article stored in the sealed container 10.

Alternatively, both the lid 101 and the container body 102 of the sealed container 10 may be folded horizontally, i.e., the sealed container 10 may be compressed laterally as a whole, by which the volume of the internal space may be reduced. When the sealed container 10 is used, the sealed container 10 can be placed in a cabinet, and after the stored articles are taken and the cover body 101 is buckled, the sealed container 10 can be transversely compressed through the cabinet door, so that the user does not need to operate by hands, and the user experience is better. For example, the cover 101 and the container body 102 may each be provided with a flexible foldable portion, and the flexible portions of the cover 101 and the container body 102 may be folded to reduce the volume of the internal space when receiving a lateral force.

Alternatively, one of the check valve 103 and the air-tight valve 104 may be provided on the lid 101, the other on the container body 102, or both of them may be provided on the lid 101 or the container body 102. For example, the check valve 103 may be provided on the container body 102, and the airtight valve 104 may be provided on the cover 101. When the sealed container 10 deforms to reduce the volume of the internal space, air of the internal space is discharged through the check valve 103 provided on the container body 102 to slow down the rate of spoilage of the articles stored in the internal space. When the user needs to take the container again, the user can operate the airtight valve 104 arranged on the cover body 101, and can directly separate the cover body 101 from the container body 102 while releasing the airtight state of the inner space, so that the user does not need to operate the airtight valve 104 first and then separate the cover body 101, one operation step is saved, and the user experience is better.

According to the sealed container 10 provided by the embodiment of the utility model, since the sealed container 10 is provided with the one-way valve 103 and the normally closed airtight valve 104, when a user uses the sealed container 10 to store pet food which is easy to deteriorate, the user can put the pet food in the container body 102 and cover the cover body 101, so that a sealed inner space is formed between the cover body 101 and the container body 102. The user may then apply pressure to the sealed container 10, causing the sealed container 10 to deform to reduce the volume of the interior space, at which time the air of the interior space is exhausted through the one-way valve 103. When the sealed container 10 is deformed to have a volume of the inner space substantially the same as that of the pet food stored therein, the user may stop pressing the sealed container 10 while the sealed container 10 is maintained in the airtight state. As the air in the internal space is less and cannot circulate with the external air, the spoilage speed of the pet food is greatly delayed. When the user needs to take the pet food again, the airtight valve 104 can be operated, so that the airtight valve 104 is switched from the normally closed state to the open state to release the airtight state of the sealed container 10, at this time, the inner space is communicated with the external environment, and the cover body 101 and the container body 102 are easy to separate, so that the user can take the pet food conveniently. Moreover, because the container body 102 is deformed to a state that the container body is approximately the same as the stored pet food, the user only needs to take the pet food at the top of the container body 102, and does not need to stretch into the container body 102 to take the pet food, so that the user experience is better.

In one embodiment, when the cover 101 is driven to move in a direction approaching the container body 102, pressure is applied to the container body 102 so that the container body 102 is deformed to reduce the volume of the internal space.

By way of example, the container body 102 may be deformed to reduce the volume of the interior space. For example, as shown in fig. 2, the container body 102 has a flexible sidewall 1021, the flexible sidewall 1021 having a plurality of annular pleats 1022. The container body 102 may be driven by a plurality of annular pleats 1022 to fold the flexible sidewall 1021 to reduce the volume of the interior space. Specifically, after the user takes the article, the cover 101 is buckled with the container body 102 and applies pressure to the cover 101, at this time, the cover 101 is continuously close to the container body 102, that is, the cover 101 applies pressure to the container body 102, and the flexible side wall 1021 of the container body 102 is pressed and can be folded by the annular fold 1022.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 3, an airtight valve 104 is provided on the top of the cover 101; the airtight valve 104 includes an operation button 1041 protruding from the top of the cover 101, and the airtight valve 104 is switched from a normally closed state to an open state when the operation button 1041 is driven to move in a direction away from the cover 101.

Specifically, when the user needs to take the article again, he or she can hold the operation button 1041 and then apply a force to the operation button 1041 to separate the container body 102, at this time, the operation button 1041 can move in a direction away from the lid 101, and as the operation button 1041 moves, the airtight state of the internal space is released, and at this time, the lid 101 and the container body 102 are easily separated. At this time, the user may continue to apply a force to the operation button 1041 away from the cover 101, and along with the continuous application of force by the user, the operation button 1041 may drive the cover 101 to move in a direction away from the container body 102 until the cover 101 is separated from the container body 102. In this way, the user can release the airtight state of the inner space and simultaneously can directly separate the cover body 101 from the container body 102 through one-time operation, so that the user does not need to operate the airtight valve 104 first and then separate the cover body 101, one-time operation steps are saved, and the user experience is better.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 3, a through mounting hole 1011 is provided at the top of the cover 101, a mounting shaft 1042 inserted into the mounting hole 1011 is provided at the bottom of the operation button 1041, and a sealing ring 1043 is fixedly sleeved on the mounting shaft 1042; when the airtight valve 104 is in a normally closed state, the sealing ring 1043 is tightly abutted against the side wall of the mounting hole 1011; when the operation button 1041 is driven to move in a direction away from the cover 101, the installation shaft 1042 is driven to move in the same direction, and when the installation shaft 1042 moves, the sealing ring 1043 can be driven to move upwards until the sealing ring 1043 is separated from the installation hole 1011, so that the internal space can be communicated with the external environment through the installation hole 1011.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 4, the mounting hole 1011 is provided with a first abutment boss 1011a, and the first abutment boss 1011a may be a plurality of bosses protruding from the inner wall of the mounting hole 1011 or may be an annular boss provided on the inner wall of the mounting hole 1011. The end of the mounting shaft 1042 is provided with a second abutment boss 1042a, and the second abutment boss 1042a may be a plurality of bosses extending from the outer wall of the mounting shaft 1042 or an annular boss disposed on the outer wall of the mounting shaft 1042.

The airtight valve 104 further includes a spring 105, and both ends of the spring 105 are respectively abutted against the first abutment boss 1011a and the second abutment boss 1042a.

When a user needs to take an article, the user holds the operation button 1041 and continuously applies a force to the operation button 1041 far away from the cover 101, the operation button 1041 drives the installation shaft 1042 to move in the same direction, and when the sealing ring 1043 is separated from the installation hole 1011 along with the movement of the installation shaft 1042, the airtight valve 104 is switched from the normally closed state to the open state, and at this time, the spring 105 compresses and stores the force. After the cover 101 and the container body 102 are closed, the user stops applying force, and at this time, the spring 105 is stretched to unload force, and drives the mounting shaft 1042 to move reversely when unloading force, and the mounting shaft 1042 can drive the operation button 1041 to reset. With the reset of the operation button 1041, the seal ring 1043 is brought into close abutment with the inner wall of the mounting hole 1011 again, that is, the airtight valve 104 is switched to the normally closed state again.

In one embodiment, referring to fig. 1, the check valve 103 may also be disposed on the cover 101, that is, the air-tight valve 104 and the check valve 103 may both be disposed on the cover 101.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 5, the top edge of the cover 101 is curved to form an arc-shaped cover side wall 1014 in a direction approaching the container body 102, and the check valve 103 is provided on the cover side wall 1014. By providing curved cover side walls 1014, the overall sealed container 10 is more aesthetically pleasing on the one hand, and the cover 101 is slightly bulged on the other hand, increasing the volume of the interior space.

Alternatively, the one-way valve 103 may be a duckbill valve. The cover sidewall 1014 is provided with a vent hole 1012 therethrough, and a duckbill valve may be provided in the vent hole 1012. Specifically, the duckbill valve can be tightly matched with the air outlet hole 1012, so that the duckbill valve is prevented from being ejected due to larger stress when the air in the inner space is exhausted.

By way of example, the end of the check valve 103 is provided with a first clamping portion, one end of the air outlet hole 1012, which is close to the inner space, is provided with a second clamping portion, and after the check valve 103 is installed, the first clamping portion can be clamped and fixed with the second clamping portion, so that the check valve 103 is prevented from falling out of the air outlet hole 1012 due to larger stress when the air in the inner space is discharged.

Optionally, referring to fig. 5, a plurality of ribs 1013 extending from the top of the cover 101 to the bottom of the cover 101 are provided around the air outlet 1012, and the ribs 1013 can enhance the strength of the cover side wall 1014 around the air outlet 1012 while increasing the aesthetic property, so as to avoid the problem of easy damage caused by weak strength of the cover side wall 1014 around the air outlet 1012.

According to the sealed container 10 provided by the embodiment of the utility model, since the sealed container 10 is provided with the one-way valve 103 and the normally closed airtight valve 104, when a user uses the sealed container 10 to store an object easy to deteriorate, the user can place the object on the container body 102 and cover the cover body 101, so that a sealed inner space is formed between the cover body 101 and the container body 102. The user may then apply pressure to the sealed container 10, causing the sealed container 10 to deform to reduce the volume of the interior space, at which time the air of the interior space is exhausted through the one-way valve 103. When the container 10 is deformed to have a volume substantially equal to the volume of the internal space in which the article is stored, the user may stop pressing the container 10 while the container 10 is maintained in the airtight state. Because the air in the inner space is less and can not circulate with the external air, the spoilage speed of the articles is greatly delayed. When the user needs to take the articles again, the airtight valve 104 can be operated, so that the airtight valve 104 is switched from the normally closed state to the open state to release the airtight state of the sealed container 10, at this time, the inner space is communicated with the external environment, and the cover 101 and the container body 102 are easy to separate, so that the user can take the articles conveniently. Moreover, since the container body 102 is deformed to a state where the container body is approximately the same as the volume of the stored articles, the user only needs to take the articles at the top of the container body 102, and does not need to stretch into the container body 102 to take the articles, so that the user experience is better.
