供雞販裝運雞隻用的容器,平底圓口,口有蓋。往日雞販騎腳踏車,載著雞籠到市集販賣,即用此形式的雞籠。其編作方法、材料規格、縫隙寬窄、造型款式、尺寸高低大小等,都以內容物做整體的設計考量,例如此件容器的高度,則是配合雞隻腳的長度;底部編作之縫隙較密集,用以保護雞隻的腳丫,使其不會輕易落出;緣口直徑的大小與雙層輪口收邊法的使用原因,則是為了讓雞隻不容易跳出,並加強整體結構之堅牢度。 |
This is a vessel that allows chicken venders to ship poultry. The base is flat, and the opening is round with a lid. In the past, chicken venders carried chicken on bicycles to the market to sell, which they use chick coops such as these. Weaving method, materials, size of crevices, style, and size is all dependent on the content. The height of the vessel is compatible with the length of the chicken legs, where the bottom is woven more tightly to protect the chicken’s feet, so they are not easily exposed. The circumference of the rim and the double layered rotary rounding off method prevent the chicken from jumping out, also increasing the security and strength of the structure.
