蒸気を行き渡らせることが難しい。However, the above-mentioned conventional fixed-quantity storage container is intended to store vegetables, meat and the like, and it is difficult to use it as it is for cooking rice. The reasons are as follows. First, since cooked cooked rice is sticky, it cannot be easily dropped because the cooked cooked rice adheres to the inner surface of the container even when the container is laid down and the contents are guided to the lower bag. When cooking rice, heating with steam is generally performed. In this case, it is desirable to heat the rice inside and outside by evenly contacting it with steam, but in the container as described above, it is possible to spread steam over the entire rice. difficult.

Is formed at a position slightly above the lower end of the container body 1. Further, in a portion below the range where the groove 2 is formed, a large diameter portion 4 is formed by enlarging the inner diameter of the container body 1 via the step portion 3. The large-diameter portion 4 is provided with a bottom member 5 made of, for example, a stainless steel mesh, a plastic or metal disc having a large number of through holes, and the bottom member 5 is inserted into the large-diameter portion 4. It is supported by an annular pressing member 6.

The container body 1, the bottom member 5, and the pressing member 6 are integrally fixed by ultrasonic welding. That is, when the ultrasonic vibrator 7 is pressed against the pressing member 6 from below at a predetermined pressure to ultrasonically vibrate, the contact portions of the container body 1, the bottom member 5, and the pressing member 6 generate heat, and are integrated. It is fixed. For example, in the case where the bottom member 5 is a metal net, by pressing the ultrasonic vibrator 7 as described above, the bottom member 5 is fixed while being embedded in the container body 1 and the pressing member 6 which are softened by the heat generated in the container. . Further, when the bottom member 5 is a plastic plate having a large number of through holes (regardless of whether the same material as the container body 1 or the pressing member 6 is used), the bottom member 5 is also melted and the container body 1 And is welded to the pressing member 6. In this way, as a result of the container body 1, the bottom member 5, and the pressing member 6 being integrally welded, there is almost no gap between them, so that the contents are unlikely to remain in the container body 1 and are easily washed. can do.

を得ることができる。In the container constructed as described above,
The contents can be heated and cooked by supplying steam from below while conveying the container body 1 by a belt conveyor or the like and introducing the steam from the through holes of the bottom member 2 into the container body. Moreover, since a large number of grooves 2 are provided inside the hole container body 1, the contact area with the contents is small. Therefore, even when this container is used for cooking rice, the contents can be easily taken out regardless of the stickiness of the contents by a simple operation such as inverting the container body upside down. Further, since the inside of the container body 1 has an inverse taper shape in which the diameter increases toward the upper part, the contents can be taken out more easily. Further, due to the existence of the groove 2, a gap can be secured between the contents and the inner surface of the container body 1, and when used for cooking cooked rice, for example, excess water is guided downward to provide a good taste. Can be obtained.

る。As described above, since the constant quantity container of the present invention has a large number of through holes in the bottom member, steam is introduced into the interior through the through holes to cook the contents. be able to. In addition, by providing a groove on the inner surface of the container body, it is easy to take out the contents, and moreover, a gap is secured between the inner surface of the container body and the contents so that excess water can be easily flowed downward. Further, it can be discharged to the outside through the through hole of the bottom member. By integrating the container body, the bottom member, and the pressing member by ultrasonic welding, a gap is unlikely to occur inside the container body, therefore,
Fragments or the like of the contents do not enter this gap and can be easily washed to keep the inside clean. In addition, since the inner surface of the container main body is formed in a taper shape whose diameter becomes larger toward the upper part, the contents can be easily taken out by an operation such as inverting the container main body. As a result of being configured as described above, the cooking container of the present invention is suitably used for cooking sticky foods such as cooked rice, facilitates removal in a subsequent step, and does not have excess water. Good cooking can be done.
