Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a dispenser container, and more particularly, to a dispenser container in which the content of a hair-growth agent containing minoxidil can be measured and taken out from the container body once per use. Regarding

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a hair-growth agent for hair, a hair-growth agent containing minoxidil has been known. This minoxidil has an excellent hair-growth effect, but its use amount is limited for health reasons. Therefore, when using a hair-growth agent twice a day, the amount of one-time use is 1 In many cases, conditions such as limiting to milliliters were added.

Therefore, a container for storing a hair-growth material containing minoxidil is required to have a high quantitative property, and a certain amount of the hair-growth material can be measured and taken out from the container. An example of the container will be described with reference to FIGS.

The container 50 shown in FIG. 7A is a container body 5.
In the inside of No. 1, a hair growth material containing minoxidil is stored. When using this hair restorer, applicator 5
The black dot 52a displayed on the No. 2 is aligned with the measuring position 53, and the container 50 is turned upside down as shown in FIG.
Was directed downward and the hair-growth agent was allowed to flow down into the measuring chamber 54.

Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 7 (C), the container is returned straight upward, and a fixed amount (for example, 1 ml) of the hair-growth material is secured in the fixed amount chamber 54 in a state of being partitioned from the container main body, and thus the measurement is completed. Applicator 5
2 is rotated 90 degrees in the counterclockwise direction to raise the applicator 52 and the nozzle 55 as shown in FIG. 7 (D) to interrupt the communication between the measuring chamber 54 and the container body 51.

Then, as shown in FIG. 7 (E), the container 50
After turning the nozzle 55 upside down and turning the nozzle 55 downward,
The tip of is pressed to a desired position on the scalp 56, and the hair growth material is attached to the scalp from the nozzle 55. By repeating this operation multiple times, the fixed amount (1 milliliter) accumulated in the measuring chamber 54.
Apply the hair-growth agent to the scalp.

After applying a fixed amount of hair-growth material to the scalp 56, the container 50 is returned straight upward as shown in FIG. 7 (F), and then the applicator 52 is rotated 90 degrees in the clockwise direction, and the applicator 52 is rotated. And the nozzle 55 is lowered to prepare for the next measurement. In this way, the work of applying the hair-growth material containing minoxidil to the scalp 56 is completed.

By the way, using this container 50, the scalp 5
When applying the hair-growth agent to No. 6, as shown in FIG.
Since the procedure shown in (A) to (F) is required, its handling becomes complicated. Further, when applying the hair-growth agent to the scalp 56, the tip of the nozzle 55 is pressed against the scalp 56 and the hair-growth agent is applied from the tip of the nozzle 55 to the scalp 56, so there is room for improvement in terms of usability.

[0009] On the other hand, as this type of container, there is also known one in which a hair-growth agent is contained in a dispenser container. In the case of a dispenser container, a hair-growth agent is sprayed from a nozzle by pushing a spray spout to grow hair on the scalp. It becomes possible to charge. Therefore, according to the dispenser container, the contents of the hair-growth agent can be ejected without pressing the tip of the nozzle against the scalp, and the usability can be improved.

In this dispenser container, a spraying spout is pressed once to spray a predetermined amount (for example, 1 ml) of hair-growth material from the nozzle, or the spraying spout is pressed a plurality of times (for example, 5 times). In some cases, a predetermined amount of the hair-growth material or the like is taken out.

[0011]

However, in a dispenser container in which a predetermined amount (for example, 1 ml) of hair-growth material is collectively ejected from a nozzle by simply pushing the ejection spout once, the ejection amount per ejection is Since the amount increases, the injection amount will inevitably vary (there may be about 20% variation), and it has been difficult to secure an accurate injection amount of the contents. On the other hand, in a dispenser container that pushes the spray spout in multiple times (for example, 5 times), since the single injection amount is small, variations in the injection amount are less likely to occur, but the number of times the injection spout is pressed is reduced. It needs to be remembered, so there was room for improvement in terms of usability.

The present invention is intended to solve all the above problems by providing a dispenser container with which it is possible to easily take out accurately measured quantitative contents and thereby improve the usability. is there.

[0013]

In order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 is a dispenser container in which a dispenser is provided at the top of the container body and the contents of the container body are sprayed from the nozzle of the dispenser. There
A measuring chamber is formed in the vicinity of the top of the container body and directly below the dispenser to allow a certain amount of contents to be taken in, and a peripheral wall of the measuring chamber is arranged inside the top peripheral wall of the container body with a predetermined space. In the vicinity of the upper end of the peripheral wall, at least two contents intake holes that connect the weighing chamber and the predetermined space are formed, and a cylindrical body that connects the weighing chamber and the inside of the container body is arranged on the bottom surface of the weighing chamber. It is characterized in that the upper end of the cylindrical body is formed so as to project from the bottom surface of the measuring chamber by a predetermined dimension.

According to the dispenser container of the present invention described above, the measuring chamber is formed inside the top peripheral wall of the container body, and at least two or more contents intake holes are formed at the upper end of the peripheral wall of the measuring chamber. Therefore, by inverting the container body, the contents inside the container body can be easily taken into the measuring chamber from the contents intake hole.

Further, since the cylindrical body is provided on the bottom surface of the measuring chamber and the upper end of the cylindrical body is projected from the bottom surface of the measuring chamber by a predetermined dimension, when the container body is returned straight upward, the cylindrical body inside the measuring chamber is provided. All the contents existing above the upper end of the container are returned to the inside of the container body via this cylindrical body. Then, when the height position of the contents in the weighing chamber coincides with the upper end of the cylinder, the return of the contents stops, a fixed amount of the contents is stored in the weighing chamber, and as a result, the constant amount of the contents is weighed. Will be seen. In addition, since the content intake hole is formed near the upper end of the peripheral wall of the weighing chamber, even if the content in the container body is reduced to a small amount, it is possible to reliably guide the contents of the last drop from the content intake hole into the weighing chamber. It becomes possible to take in.

In this way, by only reversing the container body to take the contents into the measuring chamber and then returning the container body straightly upward, only a certain amount of the contents taken into the measuring chamber can be stored in the measuring chamber. After that, a certain amount of the content in the measuring chamber can be easily injected through the dispenser.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the cylindrical body is arranged at the center of the bottom surface of the measuring chamber. Since the cylinder is located in the center of the bottom of the weighing chamber, even if the container body is tilted to some extent, the contents are prevented from spilling indefinitely and a certain amount of the contents is stably stored in the weighing chamber. You will be able to leave.

A third aspect of the present invention is characterized in that the content is a hair-growing material containing minoxidil. By using minoxidil-containing hair-growing material as the content to be stored in the container body, the amount of the hair-growing material used is limited to, for example, two times a day and one milliliter per time. This dispenser container, even if
1 ml from the hair growth material in the container body can be accurately taken into the measuring chamber, which will help safe use,
It is suitable as a container for a hair restorer containing minoxidil.
