Various types of hair dyes are used, such as one that uniformly dyes hair in a desired color, one that bleaches hair, one that bleachs hair and then a desired color. When dyeing hair, a two-liquid mixed solution of a hair dye is used, but in some cases, a mixed solution of three or more liquids may be used.

When a two-liquid mixed liquid is used for dyeing hair, the mixing container A contains the first liquid of the hair dye as the content liquid and is covered with the cap E through the packing P. . The mixing container A containing the first liquid is provided to the market together with the container which contains the second liquid and is covered, and the comb attachment cap C in which the comb body D having the inner plug B is set and integrated. It

In use, the second liquid is placed in the mixing container A containing the first liquid, the cap E is attached, and the mixing container A is shaken to mix the two liquids. Next, the cap E is replaced and the comb attachment cap C is attached. Comb mounting cap C
When attached, the inner plug B is the bulge ring 12 of the inner cylinder 10.
Is tightened on the mouth tube portion 1 with a certain tightening margin, and a tightening force is generated, and the tightening force is stronger than the fitting of the comb mounting cap C. Therefore, the inner plug B is mounted by the comb mounting cap C. To the fastening of the mouth tube portion 1 of the mixing container A.

When dyeing hair, the two liquids are mixed and the body portion 3 of the mixing container A to which the comb attachment cap C is attached is pressed,
Due to the increase in the internal pressure, the hair dyeing liquid in the mixing container A is sent to each comb tooth 36 through the liquid flow path 32 in the base body 30 of the comb body D, and is discharged from each discharge hole 35. Next, when the pressure is released, the body portion 3 is restored and the inside of the mixing container A is depressurized, the suction valve 28 is opened according to the depressurization, and the atmosphere is introduced into the mixing container A through the air suction hole 27. When the pressure in the mixing container A is no longer reduced, the suction valve 28 is closed.

Next, when the body portion 3 of the mixing container A is pressed again, the suction valve 28 is closed and the contents are discharged from the discharge hole 35 of each comb tooth 36 in accordance with the rise of the internal pressure. Thus, according to the pressing of the body portion 3 of the mixing container A, the hair dyeing liquid corresponding to the pressing amount is discharged.

When the hair dyeing is completed, the comb attachment cap C is removed and washed, and the mixed solution is discarded. When the comb attachment cap C is removed, the inner plug B is transferred from the comb attachment cap C to the mixing container A, and remains fastened to the mouth tube portion 1 of the mixing container A.

When the cap E is covered before discarding the mixed solution when it cannot be immediately discarded due to some circumstances, the cap E is covered from above the inner plug B as shown in FIG. The through hole 11 of the inner plug B, the upper space of the screw 6,
A fluid communication path is formed through the cutout portion 5. Even if gas is generated by the mixed liquid, the gas is diffused to the outside through the fluid communication passage, so that the internal pressure of the mixing container A is not deformed or damaged. In addition, when the remaining amount of the mixed liquid is large, the mixed liquid may be discharged together with the gas through the fluid communication passage depending on the type of the mixed liquid.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the present embodiment, a deramie container is used as the mixing container. The inner plug, the comb body, and the cap are the same as those in the first embodiment, and the only difference is that the comb mounting cap does not have an outside air suction hole and a suction valve on the upper wall, and therefore only different mixing containers are provided. The other parts will be described with the same reference numerals and the description thereof will be omitted.

In FIG. 7, Aa is a mixing container for accommodating the first liquid of the hair dye and mixing the second liquid at the time of use, and a delamination container is used. B is an inner plug, C is a comb attachment cap, and D is a comb body.

The mixing container Aa of the deramie container has an outer layer 40
And an inner layer 41 releasably laminated on the outer layer 40
And has a mouth tube portion 42, a shoulder portion 43, a body portion 44, and a bottom portion. The outer layer 40 is deformed by a pressing operation and restored when the pressure is released to maintain the outer shape of the container, and the inner layer 41 is an inner bag that is peelable and deformable from the outer layer 40. .

A screw 46 having a notch 45 in the vertical direction is engraved on the outer periphery of the mouth tube portion 42, and a valve insertion hole is bored in the outer layer 40 below the screw 46 to form a suction valve. Four
7 is attached.

The body portion 44 has a circular or elliptical shape. The bottom part has the seal part adhered along the bottom seal part by the same resin as the outer layer 40 or a hot melt adhesive or the like.

Next, the mode of use and the function and effect of the present application container with a comb will be described. Similar to the above embodiment, in use, the second liquid is put into the mixing container Aa containing the first liquid, the inner stopper B and the cap E on which the comb body D is set are attached, and the mixing container Aa is shaken. And mix the two liquids. Then
Replace with the cap E and attach the comb mounting cap C.

In dyeing hair, when the two liquids are mixed and the body portion 44 of the mixing container Aa to which the comb attachment cap C is attached is pressed, the internal dye pressure causes the hair dyeing liquid in the mixing container Aa to come out of the comb body D. It is sent to each comb tooth 36 through the liquid flow path 32 in the base body 30 and is ejected from each ejection hole 35.

Next, when the pressure is released, the body 44 is restored and the inside of the mixing container Aa is decompressed, and the suction valve 4 is decompressed according to the decompression.
7 is opened, air is introduced between the outer layer 40 and the inner layer 41, and the inner layer 41 is peeled off to form a peeling layer. When the outer layer 40 is completely restored and the internal pressure in the peeling layer becomes equal to the outside air, the suction valve 47 is also closed.

Next, when the body portion 44 of the mixing container Aa is pressed again, the internal pressure in the mixing container Aa rises, but at that time, the air in the separation layer is not discharged because the suction valve 47 is closed. Instead, the contents are discharged from the discharge holes 35 of each comb tooth 36 in accordance with the increase in the internal pressure. Thus, according to the pressing of the body portion 44 of the mixing container Aa, the hair dyeing liquid corresponding to the pressing amount is discharged.

When the hair dyeing is completed, the comb attachment cap C is removed and washed, and the mixed solution is discarded. If the mixed solution cannot be immediately discarded, cover the cap E with
It is possible to obtain the same effect as that of the above-described embodiment.

In each of the above-mentioned embodiments, the comb is used as the applicator, but a brush or an applicator-attaching cap having an applicator nozzle may be used instead of the comb.
