摘要

A portable combination dishware set comprising a first surface comprising a female part and a second surface comprising a male part of a fastening mechanism. The female part comprises a circular recess that forms a protuberance on the first surface, the protuberance terminating in a raised circular periphery, the raised circular periphery comprising a number of inwardly extending locking brackets, each locking bracket comprising an inner arcuate edge that joins the raised circular periphery at the first end of the inner arcuate edge and at the second end of the inner arcuate edge, and a locking channel situated directly underneath the arcuate edge of each locking bracket. The male part comprises a number of locking members, each comprising a vertical extension that connects the locking member to the second surface and a horizontal portion that extends partially around an outer circumference of a circular protrusion on the second surface.

1. A portable combination dishware set comprising:
(a) a plate comprising a female part of a fastening mechanism, the female part comprising a circular recess on an underside of the plate, the circular recess forming a protuberance on a top surface of the plate, the protuberance terminating in a raised circular periphery, the raised circular periphery comprising a number of inwardly extending locking brackets, each locking bracket comprising an inner arcuate edge with a first end and a second end, the inner arcuate edge joining the raised circular periphery at the first end of the inner arcuate edge and at the second end of the inner arcuate edge, a locking channel situated directly underneath the arcuate edge of each locking bracket, the female part being positioned on the plate so as to leave room for food on the plate; and (b) a bowl having a bottom surface comprising a male part of the fastening mechanism, the male part comprising a number of locking members, each of the locking members comprising a vertical extension that connects the locking member to the bottom surface and a horizontal portion that extends partially around an outer circumference of a circular protrusion on the bottom surface; wherein the number of locking brackets equals the number of locking members; wherein each locking bracket has a height, wherein each locking channel has a floor, and wherein the floor of each locking channel is formed by a flat member that is offset from a top edge of the raised circular periphery by a distance equal to the height of each locking bracket; wherein the flat member covers an entire inner surface area of the protuberance with the exception of cut-outs that form viewing windows; wherein the viewing windows are located directly underneath the locking brackets; and wherein the viewing windows are configured to allow visual confirmation that the bowl is in a fully locked position.
