Description

本発明は泡吐出器に関する。   The present invention relates to a foam dispenser.

装着した容器体内の液と外気とを混合・起泡して泡として吐出する泡吐出器が提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   There has been proposed a foam discharger that mixes and bubbles the liquid in the mounted container and the outside air to discharge as a foam (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

上記特許文献1に記載された泡吐出器は、容器体の口頸部外周に嵌合させた装着キャップに上端部を固定して容器体内に垂下するとともに、大径の空気用シリンダ及び小径の液用シリンダを上下に同心円状に連設してなるシリンダ部材と、液用シリンダ内を摺動する液用ピストンをステム外周下部より突設するとともに、空気用シリンダ内を摺動する空気用ピストンをステム外周上部に連係させ、ステム上端に吐出ヘッドを嵌着して上方付勢状態で上下動可能に装着した作動部材とを備え、作動部材の上下動により液用シリンダ内の液と空気用シリンダ内の空気を合流させて起泡させ、吐出ヘッドの吐出口より泡として吐出する如く構成している。   The foam discharge device described in the above-mentioned patent document 1 fixes an upper end portion to a mounting cap fitted to the outer periphery of the neck of the container body and hangs down in the container body, and has a large-diameter air cylinder and a small-diameter cylinder. A cylinder member in which liquid cylinders are concentrically connected up and down, and a liquid piston that slides in the liquid cylinder protrudes from the lower portion of the outer periphery of the stem, and an air piston that slides in the air cylinder Is connected to the upper periphery of the stem, and the discharge head is fitted to the upper end of the stem so that it can be moved up and down in the upward biased state. It is configured such that the air in the cylinder is merged to generate bubbles and discharged as bubbles from the discharge port of the discharge head.

従って、容器体内に大径の空気用シリンダと、その下方に連設した小径の液用シリンダとを、一緒に挿入した状態で使用するため、容器体の内容積に比較して使用可能な液の量が極めて小量に限定されるという不都合がある。   Therefore, since a large-diameter air cylinder and a small-diameter liquid cylinder provided below the container body are used in a state of being inserted together, a liquid that can be used compared to the internal volume of the container body. There is a disadvantage that the amount of is limited to a very small amount.

When the mounting cylinder 20 and the air cylinder 21 having the outer peripheral surface having the same outer diameter as the outer periphery of the container body 10 are provided, the vertically long cylinder having the same diameter from the lower end of the container body A to the upper end of the cylinder member B1. The shape is obtained, and it is easy to handle when used as a handy-type dispenser, and since the dead space in the container body A is small, an efficient liquid can be obtained even if the size of the container body A is reduced. Can be used.

Also, a nozzle 47 having one end opened at the upper end of the vertical cylinder 44 and the other end penetrating forward through the outer peripheral wall 46 is provided, and a discharge port 48 is opened at the tip thereof. The gas-liquid mixing chamber R in the stem 31 communicates with the discharge port 48 at the tip of the nozzle 47 through the bubble layer.

負圧解除弁体Cはエラストマー等の比較的柔軟な材質で形成され、容器体A内の液の減少による負圧時に外気を導入する負圧解除弁50を構成するもので、口頸部12上面と空気用シリンダ21下面との間に挟持させ、上面に内外を連通する通気用溝51を設けたフランジ52と、フランジ52内周縁より液用シリンダ22外周と隙間をあけ、下端縁を液用シリンダ22外周に密嵌させた筒状弁板53を垂設しており、筒状弁板53と液用シリンダ22の外周面とで負圧解除弁50を構成している。液の減少に伴い容器体A内が負圧化した際に、負圧解除弁が開いて、口頸部12と装着筒20の間、通気用溝51、液用シリンダ22と筒状弁板53との隙間を介して外気が容器体A内に導入され、容器体A内の負圧を解除する。   The negative pressure release valve body C is formed of a relatively flexible material such as an elastomer, and constitutes a negative pressure release valve 50 that introduces outside air at the time of negative pressure due to a decrease in the liquid in the container body A. A flange 52 that is sandwiched between the upper surface and the lower surface of the air cylinder 21 and provided with a ventilation groove 51 that communicates the inside and outside of the upper surface, and a clearance from the outer periphery of the liquid cylinder 22 is opened from the inner periphery of the flange 52, and the lower end edge is A cylindrical valve plate 53 closely fitted to the outer periphery of the cylinder 22 is suspended, and the negative valve 50 is constituted by the cylindrical valve plate 53 and the outer peripheral surface of the liquid cylinder 22. When the inside of the container A becomes negative as the liquid decreases, the negative pressure release valve opens, and between the mouth / neck portion 12 and the mounting cylinder 20, the ventilation groove 51, the liquid cylinder 22 and the cylindrical valve plate The outside air is introduced into the container body A through the gap between the container body 53 and the negative pressure in the container body A is released.

オーバーキャップDは、肩カバー23の周壁23c外周に周壁下端部を嵌合させて着脱可能に装着している。   The overcap D is detachably mounted by fitting the lower end of the peripheral wall to the outer periphery of the peripheral wall 23c of the shoulder cover 23.

上記泡吐出器1は、例えば、フォーマーポンプBに負圧解除弁体Cを装着したものを、口頸部12に装着筒20を螺着することで容器体Aに装着することができる。本例では、容器体Aの胴部10外周と、シリンダ部材B1の装着筒20外周及び周壁部22a外周とを略同径に形成しているため、上から下まで略同外径の泡吐出器として構成しており、片手で握っての容易な使用が可能なハンディタイプの泡吐出器として構成している。尚、本例では前記の如く容器体胴部10の外周面と装着筒20及び周壁部22aの外周面とを略同径に形成した例を示しているが、本発明では、これらが必ずしも略同径に形成されている場合に限られるものではない。   For example, the foam discharger 1 can be mounted on the container body A by screwing the mounting cylinder 20 on the mouth-and-neck part 12 with the former pump B mounted with the negative pressure release valve body C. In this example, since the outer periphery of the body 10 of the container body A, the outer periphery of the mounting cylinder 20 of the cylinder member B1 and the outer periphery of the peripheral wall 22a are formed to have substantially the same diameter, foam discharge having substantially the same outer diameter from top to bottom. It is configured as a handy type foam dispenser that can be easily used with one hand. In this example, as described above, an example in which the outer peripheral surface of the container body 10 and the outer peripheral surfaces of the mounting cylinder 20 and the peripheral wall portion 22a are formed to have substantially the same diameter is shown. The present invention is not limited to the case where the same diameter is formed.

上記フォーマーポンプBは、図1の状態からオーバーキャップDを外して吐出ヘッド33を押し下げると、空気用ピストン32がステム31に対して相対的に上昇し、空気吐出弁40が開き、また下降する空気用ピストン32により空気用シリンダ21内の空気が加圧され、空気通路41を介して吐出弁34下流位置のステム31内の気液混合室R内に導入される。一方、液用ピストン30が下降してポペット弁体24を吸込み弁用の弁座に当接させるまで下降させるとともに、逆止弁36が開き、液用シリンダ22内の加圧液を吐出弁34を介して気液混合室Rに導入させ、ここで、気液を混合する。気液混合室Rで混合された気液は起泡層を通過して発泡し、吐出ヘッド33のノズル47先端の吐出口48より泡として吐出される。   In the former pump B, when the overcap D is removed from the state of FIG. 1 and the discharge head 33 is pushed down, the air piston 32 rises relative to the stem 31 and the air discharge valve 40 opens and descends. The air piston 21 pressurizes the air in the air cylinder 21 and is introduced into the gas-liquid mixing chamber R in the stem 31 downstream of the discharge valve 34 via the air passage 41. On the other hand, the liquid piston 30 is lowered and lowered until the poppet valve body 24 is brought into contact with the valve seat for the suction valve, and the check valve 36 is opened to discharge the pressurized liquid in the liquid cylinder 22 to the discharge valve 34. Is introduced into the gas-liquid mixing chamber R through which the gas-liquid is mixed. The gas-liquid mixed in the gas-liquid mixing chamber R passes through the foaming layer and foams and is discharged as bubbles from the discharge port 48 at the tip of the nozzle 47 of the discharge head 33.

吐出ヘッド33の押圧を解除するとコイルスプリングsの付勢力により作動部材B2が上昇し、その際空気用ピストン32がステム31に対して相対的に下降して空気吐出弁40が閉じ、空気用シリンダ21内の負圧化によって外気導入弁42が開いて外気が空気用シリンダ21内に導入される。一方、ステム31の上昇によりポペット弁体24は上昇し、吸込み弁25が開いて負圧化した液用シリンダ22内に容器体A内の液が導入され、その際吐出弁34及び逆止弁36は閉じる。また、容器体A内の液の減少に伴って容器体A内が負圧化し、負圧解除弁50が開いて外気が容器体A内へ導入される。   When the pressing of the discharge head 33 is released, the actuating member B2 is lifted by the biasing force of the coil spring s. At that time, the air piston 32 is lowered relative to the stem 31 and the air discharge valve 40 is closed, and the air cylinder is closed. Due to the negative pressure in the air 21, the outside air introduction valve 42 opens and the outside air is introduced into the air cylinder 21. On the other hand, the poppet valve body 24 ascends as the stem 31 rises, and the liquid in the container body A is introduced into the liquid cylinder 22 that is opened and the suction valve 25 is opened to a negative pressure. At that time, the discharge valve 34 and the check valve 36 closes. Further, as the liquid in the container body A decreases, the inside of the container body A becomes negative pressure, the negative pressure release valve 50 is opened, and the outside air is introduced into the container body A.

容器体A内の液が無くなった場合には、フォーマーポンプBより容器体Aを外して液の詰め替えを行うことができ、或いは、液の充填されている詰め替え用の容器体Aを装着することで再使用が可能となる。   When the liquid in the container body A runs out, the container body A can be removed from the former pump B and the liquid can be refilled, or the refillable container body A filled with the liquid can be mounted. Can be reused.
