Description

Dispenser cap

Invention field

The present invention relates to for covering the product with sealing container.It is more particularly related to a kind of be used for container Distribution lid, the distribution lid has coating member, and the coating member keeps its horizontal level, and unrelated with the inclination angle of container.

Background of invention

Generally, liquid container, container, cup, bottle etc. are it is well known in the art that it allows to transport and store liquid. Generally, this container can include ducted body and removable lid or closure member made of the light material of such as plastics, can The lid or closure member of removal may be provided on container, for sealing container with anti-leak and spilling.

Recently, bottled water has been obtained for huge popularity, because people are more interesting by keeping moisture to remain excellent Health.This trend has caused the variously-shaped and portable water container of size development, and it meets daytime in study, work Period is in frequent motion or the needs of the user of walking, or needs to keep the needs of the user of moisture in driving or travelling.

Broadly, exist third-order design be used for transport container.The first kind, which includes having carrying, is used for manual unlocking and pass The container of the lid of the Push-and-pull valve closed.Second class and by liking the container of class to include the pipe shape protruded by the lid of container or lid Pipe.Pipe extends to the bottommost of container, and liquid is extracted from bottle by being aspirated on pipe.Such container be present Various versions, include flexible silica gel tube head, its is foldable to prevent dust and other pollutants contacting pipe when not in use. 3rd class and last a kind of container include a lid simply screwed on and remove bottle.

As a kind of popular tendency, Push-and-pull valve is used for almost all of bicycle bottle, and the business for people on the move Obtainable bottled water receptacle in industry.However, the Push-and-pull valve of standard, although need, having makes it use difficult and fiber crops Tired many shortcomings.First, Push-and-pull valve continuously needs to use thumb and forefinger to carry out operation valve, so as to by harmful microorganism and its Its bacterium is transferred to drinking spout from the finger of user.Due to it is well known that hand and finger are almost always covered with nowhere not The various bacteriums touched at us and virus, therefore, because it is opened without effective method, without using it as The stepping-stone to spread germs with other germs, Push-and-pull valve produce very uncertain side between the liquid and user consumed Boundary.Another shortcoming of Push-and-pull valve is that it actually needs both hands, because a hand must hold container, and another hand operates Valve.Because some users hold valve with pulling valve in their tooth, they most must push on valve closing at last, and this is generally logical Cross using their palm to realize.Finally, because Push-and-pull valve almost always bimanualness, execution generally always needs at least one The typical security activity (such as driving or bicycle) of hand makes user's risk, because they are without using theirs Hand safely drives their vehicle.

Then, the result as various shortcomings related to Push-and-pull valve as described above, many user's selections widely use Sports cup, it uses the pipe shape pipe be kept upright by the hole in the closure member of bottle.The external diameter in hole is interior with pipe shape pipe Footpath is about the same, therefore allows suction pipe to be snugly mounted to sleep mode above hole.Sports cup generally means that remains stationary, And user is aspirated so that liquid is drawn upwardly out into cup on one end of pipe shape pipe.This construction and push-pull closure one Sample is popular, but has the place appearance of stable resting position more in office, school and bottle.All pipe shape tube capacity The major defect of device is that they are more difficult to transport when hydraulically full, because liquid is easy to overflow during traveling.Valveless door closure The shortcomings that be, it is always necessary to bottle cap is screwed on bottle or screwed down from bottle by two hands, and if bottle go over and Lid is not securely fastened, and it easily overflows very much.

In addition, for for customer providing various flavouring, such as catsup with being used for of being used in food corner at the restaurant With the container of wasabi, the commonly provided pressing mechanism, it allows user to be adjusted by overturning and then extruding container first to pour out Taste product.The tip of this container is unlapped mostly, is covered sometimes with small lid, and the small lid is very easy to rupture and do not risen Effect.Further, since flavouring is generally more more viscous than normal liquid, these flavouring are generally accumulated on the upper surface of container. Further, since the flavouring of storage in this container is the food preserved, therefore, as a result, the top of this container becomes Must be attractive to fly and other common insects, it has various infectious diseases and the serious threat of other harmful infection.

Therefore, this area needs container cover, and health, design simply, and can be used for being stored in not in use for it Various liquid or powder in the container of similar shape and size.Also need to a kind of container cover, its can allow container with similar to Push-and-pull valve and/or the mode of container with suction pipe work.In addition to that mentioned above, it is also necessary to which a kind of container cover, it contributes to Container is only operated with hand, and wherein hand need not directly contact with capping, and such as can also moved with pipe shape pipe Pipe shape pipe in cup is used together.
