Abstract

A cone-shaped edible container according to the present invention comprises: an edible outer shell, an edible inner shell, and an edible first adhesive layer provided between the outer shell and the inner shell to adhere the outer shell and the inner shell to each other. The outer shell and the inner shell are rolled into a cone shape in a state of being adhered to each other so as to have a basic structure of a cone shape. The outer shell forms the outermost side of the basic structure, and the inner shell has a stronger rigidity than the outer shell. Thus, assuming a cone-shaped structure implemented only by the outer shell, even if an external force of a magnitude capable of breaking the assumed structure is applied to the basic structure, the basic structure is maintained.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A conical edible container comprising:
 an edible outer shell;   an edible inner shell; and   an edible first adhesive layer provided between the outer shell and the inner shell to bond the outer shell and the inner shell,   wherein the outer shell and the inner shell are wound in a conical shape in a state in which the outer shell and the inner shell are bonded to each other to form a basic structure of the conical shape,   wherein the outer shell forms an outermost side of the basic structure, and   wherein the inner shell has a strength that is stronger than that of the outer shell such that the basic structure is maintained even when, with an assumption that the conical structure is implemented only by the outer shell, an external force of a magnitude, by which there is a possibility of the assumed structure being damaged, is applied to the basic structure.   
     
     
         2 . The conical edible container of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a second adhesive layer provided between an inner part of the outer shell and an outer part of the outer shell, which is superposed on the inner part, in the conical state to restrain the outer shell and the inner shell from being released from the conical shape due to the inner shell having an elasticity that is stronger than that of the outer shell after the outer shell and the inner shell are wound in the conical shape, whereby at least parts of the outer shell are bonded to each other.   
     
     
         3 . The conical edible container of  claim 1 , wherein the outer shell and the inner shell have properties of making a bonding force of the second adhesive layer, which bonds the parts of the outer shell, stronger than a bonding force of the second adhesive layer, which bonds parts of the inner shell, or a bonding force of the second adhesive layer, which bonds the inner shell and the outer shell. 
     
     
         4 . The conical edible container of  claim 1 , wherein the outer shell includes at least one selected from a group consisting of  chlorella , green laver, sea staghorns, laver, agar-agar, seaweed, kelp, gulfweed, and  fusiformis.    
     
     
         5 . The conical edible container of  claim 4 , wherein the edible material includes at least one of flour paste, rice paste, and sticky rice paste. 
     
     
         6 . The conical edible container of  claim 1 , wherein the inner shell includes at least one selected from a group consisting of rice, barley, beans, foxtail millet, proso millet, sorghum, flour, and corns. 
     
     
         7 . The conical edible container of  claim 1 , wherein an aspect ratio of the edible container is 1:1 to 1:10. 
     
     
         8 . The conical edible container of  claim 1 , wherein the outer shell and the inner shell have any shape of a circular shape, a rectangular shape, and a fan shape when the outer shell and the inner shell are unfolded. 
     
     
         9 . The conical edible container of  claim 8 , wherein in a state in which the outer shell and the inner shell are bonded to each other, an area from one point of an edge of the outer shell to a central point, at which the outer shell and the inner shell are bonded to each other, is cut off, and parts located on circumferentially opposite sides of a cutting line are superimposed on each other to be wound in a conical shape and are bonded to each other by the second adhesive layer to form the conical shape. 
     
     
         10 . The conical edible container of  claim 1 , wherein the outer shell and the inner shell are heated in a specific condition after the basic structure is formed, and are converted to a state in which moisture of the outer shell and the inner shell are removed after the heating. 
     
     
         11 . A conical edible container comprising a body sheet formed by bonding an edible outer shell and an edible inner shell having an elasticity property that is stronger than that of the outer shell with a first adhesive layer, wherein with an assumption that two areas of the body sheet, which are divided by an imaginary line that crosses the body sheet, are a first wing part and a second wing part, the conical shape is formed by bonding the first wing part and the second wing part with a second adhesive layer while the first wing part and the second wing part are superimposed on each other while one point, at which the imaginary line meets an edge of the body sheet, is taken as an apex, and
 wherein the conical shape of the body sheet is maintained by balancing a force of unfolding the body sheet by an elasticity of the inner shell and a force of restraining the body sheet from being unfolded, by a bonding force of the first wing part and the second wing part, in a state in which the body sheet forms the conical shape.
