  • the circular support wall 150 is formed in a cylindrical shape at the bottom of the inside of the bottom support 140 to support the lower portion of the shape resilient body 130 to stably support the shape resilient body 130 and to operate the container more accurately.
  • a plurality of flow holes 151 through which air flows are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the circular support wall 150.
  • the central protrusion 152 formed at the center of the inside of the circular support wall 150 is formed to protrude from the bottom support 140 for closing the vent hole 131 of the shape resilient body 130 and a conical closing protrusion 152a is formed at the center of the upper portion of the circular support wall 150 to more stably close the circular vent hole 131 of the shape resilient body 130 when the shape resilient body 30 is lowered.
  • the intermediate joint 120 is lowered together with the container body 110. Accordingly, the shape resilient body 130 coupled to the intermediate joint 120 descends and the conical closing protrusion 152a of the central protrusion 152 is inserted into the vent hole 131 of the shape resilient body 130. The shape resilient body 130 is compressed while the vent hole 131 is closed. Accordingly, the air inside the shape resilient body 130 is supplied upward through the check valve 126 of the intermediate joint 120 so that the contents S are discharged whole the push plate 112 is lifted up.
  • FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view of the liquid discharge container 100 according to the third example of the present disclosure
  • FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view for explaining an operation of the liquid discharge container 100 according to the third example.
  • the liquid discharge container 100 according to the third example is different from the second example in that a plurality of support legs 132 for supporting the shape resilient body 130 are formed under the shape resilient body 130 in the third embodiment.
  • the plurality of support legs 132 formed at the lower portion of the shape resilient body 130 are formed integrally with the shape resilient body 130 with a soft material and are spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval below the shape resilient body 130.
  • three legs 132 are formed.
  • the lower ends of the three support legs 132 are brought into contact with the bottom of the bottom support 140.
  • the shape resilient body 130 coupled to the intermediate joint 120 is lowered as shown in FIG. 9 , so that the conical closing protrusion 152a of the central protrusion 152 is inserted into the vent hole 131 of the shape resilient body 130 while the support legs 132 are bent outward, to close the vent hole 131.
  • the lower portion of the shape resilient body 130 is further closed while the upper end of the circular support wall 150 contacts the lower portion of the shape resilient body 130.
  • the closed shape resilient body 130 is compressed so that the air inside the shape resilient body 130 is supplied to the upper side through the check valve 126 of the intermediate joint 120 so that the contents S are discharged as the push plate 112 rises up. Then, when the pressing of the container body 110 is released, the shape resilient body 130 and the support legs 132 are restored to their original states and the resilience of the support legs 132 assists the resilience of the shape resilient body 130 and the container body 110.
  • the support legs 132 supporting the shape resilient body 130 are bent so that there are some advantages that the vent hole 131 is primarily closed by the closing protrusion 152a of the central protrusion 152, and the lower portion of the shape resilient body 130 is closed by the circular support wall 150 so that the operation of the container is more stably performed.
  • FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view of a liquid discharge container 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention.
  • the liquid discharge vessel 100 differs from the first example in that a throughhole 121a is formed at the center of the intermediate plate member 121 without a check valve 126, and circular support legs 133 are integrally formed at a lower portion of the shape resilient body 130 and circular coupling protrusions 146 are formed in the bottom support 140 so that the circular support legs 133 are coupled to the inside of the circular coupling protrusions 146, in the fourth embodiment.
  • the inner bottom of the circular coupling protrusion 146 in the bottom support 140 is provided with a check valve 145 that allows the inflow of air from the outside into the bottom support 140 and prevents the air from flowing out in the opposite direction.
  • the shape resilient body 130 when the intermediate joint 120 is lowered together with the container body 110 by pressing the container body 110, in a state where the circular support legs 133 of the shape resilient body 130 are coupled to the inside of the circular coupling protrusions 146 of the bottom support 140, the shape resilient body 130 is lowered and the shape resilient body 130 is compressed so that the air inside the shape resilient body 130 flows through the throughhole 121a of the intermediate joint 120 so that the contents S are discharged while the push plate 112 is lifted up.
  • the shape resilient body 130 and the container body 110 are restored to the original states and air is introduced into the bottom support 140 through the check valve 145 of the bottom support 140 and the introduced air flows into the inside of the shape resilient body 130 through the vent hole 131 of the inside of the circular support legs 133.
  • the liquid discharge container according to this additional embodiment differs from the liquid discharge device according to the previous embodiment in that the previous embodiment has been configured so that the discharge port insertion member in the upper plate of the container body has been inserted into the discharge port in the same manner as those previous examples,
  • the check valve is provided spaced by a predetermined distance below the discharge port of the upper plate.
  • a cylindrical mounting portion is formed on a lower surface of the upper plate and a check valve is coupled to the center of the bottom of the cylindrical mounting portion by being spaced apart from the discharge port.
  • the check valve provided below the discharge port allows the contents of the container body to be discharged via the discharge port through the check valve so that the contents S are allowed to move up through the check valve and to prevent the contents S from moving downward in the opposite direction.
  • the contents S accommodated in the container body are first filled in the cylindrical mounting portion through the check valve, and are discharged via the discharge port.
  • the contents S are prevented from falling down below the discharge port by the check valve.
  • the contents S do not go down, thereby further preventing the push plate from moving downward.
  • the upper plate having the above-described configuration can be applied to the previous examples as well.
  • a liquid discharge container having a dispenser structure for discharging a liquid material easily, to thereby completely exhaust the contents while providing easy operations, and reduce manufacturing cost with fewer parts.
