Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem that it is troublesome and inefficient that for metering such an article frequently used everyday as an example of powdery sugar, salt or floor for cooking, the metering has to be performed by opening a lid one by one and transferring it to a metering spoon or a metering cup being a separated tool. <P>SOLUTION: A powder container with a metering function has a structure that several dispenser channels for metering with different volumes are provided on the bottom part of a powder container, and one end of a pipe communicating with the outside of the powder container is fitted on the dispenser channel with a required quantity, and the whole powder container is turned over to be able to pour the powder with a required quantity to the outside of the powder container from the dispenser channel through the pipe without opening the lid. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Description

  The present invention adds a measuring function to powder containers widely used for cooking seasoning containers, detergent containers, cosmetic containers, pharmaceutical containers, laboratory containers, household goods containers, etc. Therefore, the present invention relates to an invention for more efficient and easier use.

Conventional powder containers, such as seasonings for cooking, sugar, salt, flour,
Although it is used frequently, the main function is to simply save it.
There is no function to measure necessary for cooking,
Even if it was, only a certain amount was weighed.
In addition, the mainstream of measurement is to open the lid and transfer to a separate measuring spoon or measuring cup, which is cumbersome and inefficient.

Like examples of powdered sugar for cooking, salt, flour, etc.
For items that are used frequently every day, open the lid one by one,
Improve the inconvenience and inefficiency of transferring to another measuring spoon or measuring cup.

In order to improve these problems, the conventional powder container with only the function of storing,
A function to measure the required amount was added and integrated to make it more efficient and easier to use.

The present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. A thick bottom pedestal 6 is provided at the bottom of a cylindrical container body 4, and a plurality of dispensing grooves 11 having different volumes capable of containing powder are provided therein as required.
A quantity scale 8 corresponding to the volume of the quantity groove 11 is written on the outer peripheral side surface of the container body 4.
The upper part of the container body 4 is covered with a thick container lid 3,
A hole is provided in the vicinity of the outer periphery of the upper portion, and the cylindrical pipe 5 is fixed through the hole.
The upper portion of the pipe 5 protrudes from the upper portion of the container lid 3, and the lower portion protrudes to the front surface of the bottom pedestal 6 with a space therebetween, and the skirt 7 is stopped at its tip by a pin 10 so as to contact the upper surface of the dispensing groove 11. A quantity mark 9 is written on the outer peripheral side surface of the container lid 3 near the pipe 5.

With these structures, if there is powder in the container body 4 and you want to pour the required amount,
The quantity mark 9 on the container lid 3 is aligned with the quantity scale 8 of the necessary quantity by turning either the container lid 3 or the container body 4.
At this time, if the container lid 3 is rotated to the right, the pipe 5 and the skirt 7 fixed to the container lid 3 also rotate at the same time, and since the skirt 7 is stopped by the pin 10, the lower direction in the direction rotated by the powder pressure. Lean on.
The powder in the dispensing groove 11 is leveled on the upper surface of the dispensing groove 11 by the lower outer peripheral surface of the skirt 7, and the pipe 5 stops at a position on the intended dispensing groove 11. The reason why the pipe 5 is slightly lifted from the bottom pedestal 6 is that a relief is provided so that powder is not taken into the pipe 5 during rotation.
By reversing the container body 4 in this state, only the powder in the target dispensing groove 11 passes through the pipe 5 and is poured out from the spout 1.

  When the container body 4 is returned to its original position, the powder falls into each groove of the dispensing groove 11.

  In this way, the necessary amount can be poured into the required place with a simple operation by simply inverting it to the required scale.

By adding a weighing function to the powder container that is simply stored,
(I) It is not necessary to open the lid one by one.
(B) There is no need to transfer to a measuring spoon or measuring cup and measure, eliminating annoyance.
(C) Weighing can be done accurately just by adjusting the scale.
(D) The integrated type is easy to use with a simple operation, so speedy cooking is possible.
(E) The spout lid automatically opens and closes and is hygienic.

As described above, the necessary amount can be poured into a necessary place by a simple operation by simply inverting it according to the necessary scale, and cooking that is frequently used can be efficiently performed.

Not only for cooking seasonings such as sugar, salt, flour, detergents, medicines, cosmetics,
It can be applied to powder containers that require storage and weighing of powder in all fields.

It is a front perspective view of the present invention. (Including partial cross-sectional view, left side view, and bottom view)

Claims (1)

At the bottom of the powder container is provided with several different volumeable dispensing grooves
By aligning one end of the pipe leading to the outside of the powder container on the dispensing groove of the required amount and inverting the entire powder container, the necessary amount of powder is passed through the pipe and out of the powder container without opening the lid. Powder container with weighing function that can be poured.
