PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent generation of bad smells and molds caused by juices of foodstuffs or the like. SOLUTION: A bottom plate 21 of a display compartment 2 is formed by precipitation-hardened stainless steel melted with a large amount of copper therein. A juice Y dripped from a foodstuff X such as raw fish flows down along the inclination of the bottom plate 21 and is collected at the inside of an upstand 47 of a front edge. After completion of a working time, the inside of the display compartment 2 is washed away with water. However, the juice Y which has sunken in a gap between a fitting groove 47A of the upstand 47 and a fitting portion 48A of a frame member 48 for a front panel 7 to be fitted into the groove 47A, is difficult to completely remove, and when the juice is left as it is, germs are liable to be generated. Since the upstand 47 attached with the residual juice Y is made of the precipitation-hardened stainless steel containing a large amount of copper, the copper melted therein is ionized and dissolved out therefrom, which reacts with the enzyme of the germs so as to initiate the so-called antimicrobial action of stopping their breaths. Thus, generation of bad smells and molds can be prevented. |
