The invention relates, inter alia, to a device (10) for holding foodstuffs in the manner of a cooking or baking mold (11), comprising a bottom wall (12) and a plurality of side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d), wherein the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are displaceable from a rest position (14), in which they lie flat, relative to the bottom wall (12) into an upright working position (15), and wherein a mat-like portion (16a, 16b, 16,c 16d) is arranged between each two side walls (13a, 13b) and forms an overlap (20) when the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are in the working position (15). The special feature of the invention consists, inter alia, in the fact that the bottom wall (12) and the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are made of metal, wherein the bottom wall (12) along its edge portions (21a, 21b, 21c, 21d) and the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) along their edge portions (22a, 22b, 22c, 22d) bordering the bottom wall (12) are covered with a plastics compound (23), which is arranged on the outer side (39, 40a, 40b, 40c, 40d) of the walls and which connects the edge portions (22a, 22b, 22c, 22d) of the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) to the edge portions (21a, 21b, 21c, 21d) of the bottom wall (12), wherein the inner sides (25, 26a, 26b, 26c, 26d) of the walls (12, 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are kept free of plastics compound (23).
A device (10) for receiving foodstuffs, like a cooking mold or baking mold (11), comprising a bottom wall (12) and a plurality of side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d), wherein the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are displaceable from a rest position (14), in which they lie flat relative to the bottom wall (12) into an upright working position (15), and wherein between two neighboring side walls (13a, 13b) there is arranged a mat-like portion (16a, 16b, 16,c 16d) which forms an overlap (20) when the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are in the working position (15), characterized in that the bottom wall (12) and the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are made of metal, wherein the bottom wall (12) along its edge portions (21a, 21b, 21c, 21d) and the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) along their edge portions (22a, 22b, 22c, 22d) bordering the bottom wall (12) are covered with a plastic mass (23), which is arranged on the outer side (39, 40a, 40b, 40c, 40d) of the walls (12, 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) and which connects the edge portions (22a, 22b, 22c, 22d) of the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) to the edge portions (21a, 21b, 21c, 21d) of the bottom wall (12), wherein the inner sides (25, 26a, 26b, 26c, 26d) of the walls (12, 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) are kept free of plastic mass (23), and wherein a side wall (13a) in its working position (15) is arranged in abutment against the bottom wall (12) and against each adjacently arranged side wall (13b, 13c, 13d), so that the device (10) in its use position (15) forms an inner face (27), that is provided continuously by metal faces.
The device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that, when the device (10) is in the state in which it lies flat, a groove-shaped gap (32) is arranged between a narrow side (30) of an edge portion (22c) of a side wall (13c) and a narrow side (29) of the bottom wall (12) along the adjacent edge portion (29c) of the bottom wall (12).
The device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the side wall (13c) in its use position (15) stands with its narrow side (30) on the inner face (25) of the bottom wall (12).
The device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a side wall (13c) in its use position (15) stands with its narrow side (30c) on the inner face (26d) of an adjacently arranged side wall (13d), the latter being in its use position.
A device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a narrow-side face (39) of the bottom wall is kept free of plastics compound (23).
The device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a narrow-side face (30) of the side wall (13c) is kept free of plastics compound (23) along its edge portions (22c) bordering the bottom wall (12).
The device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a narrow-side face (30) of the side wall (13c) is kept free of plastics compound (23) along its edge portions bordering an adjacent side wall (13d).
The device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that locking elements (33a, 33b, 33c, 33d) are integrally molded on the outer side (40a, 40b, 40c, 40d) of at least two of the side walls (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d).
