Rice wrapper and wrapped rice

Abstract

Providing a rice wrapper which can be accurately and easily formed into a deformed conical shape having a constant apex angle is disclosed. The solution provides a rice wrapper having a rectangular shape, which used, is formed into a deformed conical shape having an apex formed by an intermediate part of one long side, the deformed conical shape is formed by: rolling a part forming one corner part located between one short side and the one long side as an inside rolled part in such a way that the one corner part is placed at an intermediate part of the opposite other long side; rolling a part on the other short side over the inside rolled part as an outside rolled part; and fixing the outside rolled part onto the inside rolled part. The rice wrapper has an outer film provided with a first mark for positioning the part on the other short side which is rolled as the outside rolled part when the deformed conical shape is formed.

1 . A rice wrapper comprising: an outer film being formed into a rectangular shape and having a band-shaped separable part provided over the entire length in a longitudinal direction so as to divide the outer film into two; two inner films overlapping to the outer film in a state where the inner films are overlapped to each other, and end edge parts of thereof are shifted, the inner films respectively having peripheral edge parts which are fixed to the outer film at proper positions; and a food sheet being provided between the outer film and the inner films,
 wherein one side section, which includes one side part of the outer film separated by the separable part and one film of the inner film connected to the one side part of the outer film, is separable from other side section, which includes other side part of the outer film and other film of the inner film connected to the other side part of the outer film, when the outer film is separated by the separable part;   wherein one corner part between one short side and one long side of the rice wrapper is positioned on a middle part of other long side, the one corner part is wound as an inner winding part, and a part of other short side of the rice wrapper is wound on the inner winding part as an outer winding part and fixed on the inner winding part, thereby the rice wrapper is formed into a deformed cone shape in which a middle part of the one long side is formed as an apex, and   wherein said rice wrapper being wherein the outer film is provided with a first mark for positioning the part on the other short side which is rolled as the outside rolled part when the deformed conical shape is formed.   
     
     
         2 . The rice wrapper according to  claim 1 , wherein the first mark is a marking line for positioning a side of the part on the other short side which will be rolled as the outside rolled part. 
     
     
         3 . The rice wrapper according to  claim 1 , wherein a second mark is provided to a part of the other short side, which will be rolled as the outside rolled part, and located at a position corresponding to the first mark. 
     
     
         4 . The rice wrapper according to  claim 1 , wherein the mark is provided so as to make the apex angle within an angular range of 42-50 degrees when the rice wrapper is formed into the deformed conical shape and made flat. 
     
     
         5 . The rice wrapper according to  claim 1 , wherein when the rice wrapper is formed into the deformed conical shape, the part forming the one corner part located between the one short side and the one long side is rolled as the inside rolled part in such a way that the one corner part is placed at an intermediate part of the opposite other long side and that the one long side is made perpendicular to the other long side, and the part on the other short side is rolled over the inside rolled part as the outside rolled part in such a way that a part of the other long side is overlapped to the one short side. 
     
     
         6 . The rice wrapper according to  claim 1 , wherein a covering member is provided to a bottom part of the deformed conical part formed into the deformed conical shape so as to cover the opened bottom part of the deformed conical part by bending the covering member. 
     
     
         7 . The rice wrapper according to  claim 6 , wherein a third mark and a fourth mark for positioning, which are used when bending the covering member to cover the opened bottom part of the deformed conical part and fixing the same to the outer film, are respectively provided to the covering member and the outer film. 
     
     
         8 . A wrapped rice in which a cooked rice formed into a conical shape is accommodated in the rice wrapper of  claim 1  which has been formed into the deformed conical shape.
