[0010]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 will be described below. 1 is a large container body, and a large diameter mouth / neck portion 4 is erected from an upper end of a body portion 2 through a shoulder portion 3. . The large diameter neck is a male screw cylinder.

Reference numeral 11 is a small container body, and a small-diameter mouth / neck portion 14 is erected from the upper end of the body portion 12 through a shoulder portion 13. The small container body is provided so as to be able to move in and out of the large container body 1. The small-diameter mouth / neck may also be a male screw cylinder.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a cap, which hangs a large-diameter peripheral wall 22 which is detachably fitted to the outer surface of the large-diameter mouth / neck portion 4 from the outer circumference of the top wall 23, and a first opening is formed in a part of the outer circumference of the top wall. Set up,
The first nozzle 24 is erected from the peripheral edge of the first opening. Another top wall 23
A small-diameter peripheral wall 25 to be fitted to the outer surface of the small-diameter mouth / neck portion 14 is hung from the central portion thereof, and all or a part of the top wall portion surrounded by the small-diameter peripheral wall is secondly opened, and the second opening peripheral edge 2 nozzles
Stand up 26. Both nozzles 24 and 26 have the same size and are tapered with a small upper diameter, and engaging ridges 27 and 27 are attached to the outer periphery of the upper end thereof. 28 are attached. Each of the large-diameter peripheral wall 22 and the small-diameter peripheral wall 25 is a female screw cylinder, and an outward flange 29 is attached to the lower end of the large-diameter peripheral wall 22.

Reference numerals 31 and 31 are palates, and in the illustrated example, from the rings 32 and 32 fitted to the outer surfaces of the lower end portions of both nozzles to the elastic connecting piece 33,
33 is projected and attached to the tip of these connecting pieces. The rings 32, 32 are fitted onto the outer surface of the nozzle portion below the engaging projections 28, 28 by forcibly pushing down, and the palate 31, 31 are detachably fitted on the outer surfaces of the spouts of both nozzles. There is. However, these palates may be attached to the upper portion of the nozzle via a hinge, or may be provided separately.

Reference numeral 41 designates a metering / combining cover. A peripheral wall 43 is hung from the outer circumference of the top plate 42, and the peripheral wall 43 is provided so that it can be fitted to the outer surface of the large diameter peripheral wall 22 of the cap 21 as shown in FIG.

In the above structure, first, the first type liquid or powder or the like is put into the small container body 11, and then the small diameter mouth / neck portion 14 of the small container body is made watertight or airtight into the small diameter peripheral wall 25 of the cap 21. Mating.

Next, after the second type liquid or powder is put into the large container body 1, the small container body attached to the cap is put into the large container body, and the large-diameter peripheral wall 22 of the cap 21 is attached to the large container body. The large diameter mouth / neck portion 4 is fitted in a watertight or airtight manner, the spouts of both nozzles are closed by the palate 31, 31 before and after the fitting, and then the measuring / combining cover 41 is fitted.

When pouring the stored fluid, first of all, a cover that also serves as a meter
41 may be removed, the palate 31, 31 may be removed, and the containers may be tilted to allow the heterogeneous fluids in both container bodies to flow into the cover for use.

It should be noted that the same amount of stored items may be stored in both container bodies, or different amounts may be stored at a fixed ratio. In this case, the nozzle holes may have different sizes and may be provided so as to flow out at a constant ratio. Both fluids can be discharged by opening only one palate.

FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment. In this embodiment, a pair of conventionally known vertical pumps is attached to a container, and the large and small container bodies 1 and 11 may be the same as those in the first embodiment.

The cap 21 has first and second caps in the illustrated example.
Double cylinder with the upper end folded back inward from the opening edge
The difference is that 30 is raised, and other parts may have the same structure.

Reference numeral 51 is a cylinder for forming the pump, in which fitting cylinders 52, 52 are erected from the upper end, and these fitting cylinders are fitted into the inner and outer cylinders of the double cylinder in a watertight manner so that they cannot be withdrawn. Then, it is suspended in the large and small container bodies 1 and 11. Suction pipes 53, 53 are hung from the lower end of the cylinder to the bottom of the container body.

A nozzle is provided at the upper end of each cylinder.
The actuating member 63, to which the push-down head 62 with 61 is fitted, is urged upward, and vertically movably inserted into the first and second openings and the double cylinders 30, 30 to stand upright.

As is well known, when the cylinder and the operating member are pushed down against the cylinder via the upper surface of the pushing head, the liquid in the cylinder is ejected from the nozzle, and when the pushing is released, the liquid is urged upward. Therefore, the liquid is sucked up into the cylinder through the suction pipe at this time. Incidentally, 64 is a cover cap.

The use of the second embodiment container is such that when the cover cap 64 is removed and the liquid in the container is ejected,
On the other hand, when only the push-down heads are pushed down and the liquid in both containers is ejected at the same time, the push-down heads 62, 62 may be rotated so that the nozzles are aligned and the both push-down heads are pushed down at the same time.

[0025]

The present invention has the above-mentioned configuration,
Since the small container body is housed in the large container body as described in claim 1, it is a container formed by only the large container body in appearance, regardless of the two-kind fluid container, thus improving the appearance of the container. Also, the structure can be simplified. Regarding the outflow of the two-kind fluid, it is convenient that both openings are opened to mix them, and one opening is closed so that only one is outflowed.

According to the second aspect, it is convenient for the fluid to flow out.

According to the third aspect, it is easy to pour out the one liquid while keeping the one palate closed, and there is no fear of loss of the palate.

According to the fourth aspect, it is easy to measure, and it is easy to distribute the two kinds of liquid fluid separately in the metering cover, so that the ratio distribution is easy. It is possible to prevent entering.

According to the fifth aspect, two liquid ejectors are provided in one large container body, which is convenient for carrying and the like.
