Description

  The present invention relates to a syringe container.

  Conventionally, for example, a syringe container as shown in Patent Document 1 below is known. This dropper container is inserted into the container main body in which the contents are stored, a mounting cylinder that is removably screwed into the mouth of the container main body, and the mouth of the container main body, and the mounting cylinder is removed from the mouth. A nozzle member that moves downward with respect to the mounting cylinder by an urging force, a cylinder chamber provided at the upper end of the nozzle member, an elastic dome communicating with the cylinder chamber, and a mounting cylinder provided above the elastic dome. And a push button that protrudes upward from the mounting cylinder and is movable downward with respect to the mounting cylinder.

To use this dropper container, first, the mounting cylinder is removed from the mouth of the container body. When the mounting cylinder is removed from the mouth, the nozzle member moves downward with respect to the mounting cylinder by the urging force. Along with this, the internal volume of the cylinder chamber increases and the cylinder chamber becomes negative pressure. This negative pressure acts on the contents of the container body through the inside of the elastic dome and the nozzle member, and the contents are sucked into the nozzle member.
Next, when the push button is pushed down with respect to the mounting cylinder, the elastic dome pressed by the push button is elastically deformed, and the internal volume of the elastic dome is reduced. The contents in the nozzle member are discharged according to the amount of decrease in the internal volume of the elastic dome.

Japanese Patent No. 4251340

  However, in the above-described conventional dropper container, there is room for improvement in that all of the contents sucked into the nozzle member are completely removed by an operation of depressing the push button once.

Specifically, in order to remove all the contents by a single push-down operation, the amount of increase in the internal volume of the cylinder chamber when the attached cylinder is removed from the mouth of the container body is less A large reduction in the internal volume of the elastic dome must be secured. That is, it is necessary to increase the discharge volume when discharging the contents in the nozzle member as compared with the suction volume when sucking the contents into the nozzle member.
For this purpose, the stroke of the push button must be increased, and the outer shape of the elastic dome and the dropper container must be increased. For this reason, it has been difficult to remove all the contents in the nozzle member by a single pressing operation while keeping the stroke of the push button and the outer shape of the dropper container small.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and can completely remove the contents in the nozzle member by a single pressing operation while keeping the stroke of the push button and the outer shape of the dropper container small. The purpose is to provide a dropper container.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes the following means.
That is, the dropper container of the present invention includes a container main body in which contents are accommodated, a mounting cylinder that is detachably mounted in a mouth portion of the container main body, and is inserted into the mouth portion and is attached to the mounting cylinder. A nozzle member that moves downward relative to the mounting cylinder by an urging force when rotation in the circumferential direction is restricted and the mounting cylinder is removed from the mouth, and a cover cylinder that is externally mounted on the mounting cylinder And a button member that is disposed in the cover tube and that is restricted from rotating in the circumferential direction with respect to the cover tube and is capable of moving downward. A nozzle cylinder that opens into the container body, and a piston cylinder that is provided at an upper end of the nozzle cylinder and communicates with the inside of the nozzle cylinder. As a cylinder chamber A cylinder cylinder in which an outer peripheral surface of the piston cylinder is in sliding contact with an inner peripheral surface of a peripheral wall; and a push-down button provided at an upper end portion of the cylinder cylinder and protruding upward from the cover cylinder, and is formed on the nozzle member. An upper end portion of the nozzle guide and a lower end portion of the button guide formed on the button member are disposed so as to be in contact with each other, and the cover tube is disposed on the mounting tube with respect to the upper end portion of the nozzle guide and The restriction position where the convex portions provided at the lower end portion of the button guide are arranged to face each other, and the release where the convex portion and the concave portion provided at the upper end portion of the nozzle guide and the lower end portion of the button guide are arranged to face each other. It is possible to move between the positions in the circumferential direction.

  To use this dropper container, first, the mounting cylinder is removed from the mouth of the container body. When the mounting cylinder is removed from the mouth, the nozzle member moves downward with respect to the mounting cylinder by the urging force. As a result, the piston cylinder of the nozzle member moves downward relative to the cylinder cylinder of the button member, the internal volume of the cylinder chamber increases, and the cylinder chamber becomes negative pressure. This negative pressure acts on the contents of the container body through the inside of the piston cylinder and the nozzle cylinder, and the contents are sucked up into the nozzle cylinder.

  Next, when the push button is pushed down with respect to the cover tube, the cylinder tube is pushed down together with the push button, and the internal volume of the cylinder chamber is reduced. The contents in the nozzle cylinder are discharged from the nozzle cylinder in accordance with the amount of decrease in the internal volume of the cylinder chamber.

  In the dropper container of the present invention, when the cover cylinder is disposed at the restriction position with respect to the mounting cylinder, the convex portions provided on the upper end portion of the nozzle guide and the lower end portion of the button guide are disposed to face each other. Therefore, the nozzle member and the button member are brought into contact with each other at the restricting position.

On the other hand, when the cover tube is disposed at the release position with respect to the mounting tube, the convex portion and the concave portion provided at the upper end portion of the nozzle guide and the lower end portion of the button guide are disposed to face each other. Therefore, in this release position, the nozzle member and the button member are brought into contact with each other at the convex portion and the concave portion.
For this reason, the vertical distance between the nozzle member and the button member at the release position is smaller than the vertical distance between the nozzle member and the button member at the restriction position.

Therefore, when the mounting cylinder is removed from the opening of the container main body at the restriction position, the release position is larger than the increase amount (the stroke amount by which the piston cylinder moves downward relative to the cylinder cylinder). When the push button is pressed down, the amount by which the internal volume of the cylinder chamber decreases (the stroke amount by which the cylinder cylinder moves downward relative to the piston cylinder) increases. That is, the discharge volume for discharging the contents in the nozzle cylinder is larger than the suction volume for sucking the contents into the nozzle cylinder.
Thereby, all the contents in the nozzle cylinder can be taken out by one operation of depressing the push button. Therefore, the operability is improved.

Moreover, the cylinder chamber is formed in the cylinder cylinder with a top. When the push button is depressed, the cylinder cylinder itself moves downward with respect to the piston cylinder to reduce the internal volume of the cylinder chamber. For this reason, compared with the case where the elastic dome of patent document 1 is used, the internal volume of a cylinder chamber can be reduced greatly, suppressing the amount of pushing down of a push-down button small (a large discharge amount of contents can be secured).
In this way, the stroke (the amount of pressing down) of the push button can be kept small, so that the operability can be further improved. In addition, the outer shape of the dropper container can be formed compactly.

  Further, in the dropper container of the present invention, the mounting cylinder is screwed into the mouth portion of the container body, and the direction of rotation in the circumferential direction when the mounting cylinder is attached to the mouth portion is tightened. The restriction position is a terminal position where the cover cylinder is rotated to the tightening side with respect to the mounting cylinder, and the release position The position is preferably a terminal position where the cover tube is rotated to the loose side with respect to the mounting tube.

In this case, when attaching the mounting cylinder to the mouth portion of the container main body, the cover cylinder is operated to rotate the mounting cylinder together with the cover cylinder to the tightening side with respect to the mouth portion of the container main body. At this time, the cover cylinder naturally moves to the tightening side with respect to the mounting cylinder and is arranged at the restriction position. Therefore, when the syringe container is used next time, the mounting cylinder is disposed at the restriction position.
Further, when removing the mounting cylinder from the mouth portion of the container main body, the cover cylinder is operated to rotate the mounting cylinder together with the cover cylinder to the loose side with respect to the mouth portion of the container main body. At this time, the cover cylinder naturally moves to the loose side with respect to the mounting cylinder and is arranged at the release position. Therefore, when the push button is depressed, the mounting cylinder is disposed at the release position.

That is, the operation of mounting the mounting cylinder on the mouth of the container body and the operation of placing the cover cylinder at the restriction position with respect to the mounting cylinder can be performed by a single operation. Further, the operation of removing the mounting cylinder from the mouth portion of the container body and the operation of placing the cover cylinder at the release position with respect to the mounting cylinder can be performed by a single operation.
Therefore, the operability of the dropper container can be further improved.

  In the dropper container of the present invention, it is preferable that the mounting cylinder is provided with a locking portion that comes into contact with the nozzle member when the nozzle member moves downward relative to the mounting cylinder.

In this case, when the mounting cylinder is removed from the mouth of the container body, the nozzle member moves downward by a predetermined amount with respect to the mounting cylinder. Along with this, the amount of increase in the internal volume of the cylinder chamber also becomes a predetermined value, so that the amount of the contents sucked into the nozzle cylinder becomes the same value every time.
Therefore, according to this dropper container, when the contents are sucked into the nozzle cylinder, the weighing is accurately performed, and the amount of the contents discharged by the pressing operation of the push button is set to an expected amount. Can do.

  In the dropper container of the present invention, it is preferable that a spring member for urging the nozzle member downward with respect to the mounting cylinder is provided outside the cylinder chamber.

  In this case, the spring member can surely bias the nozzle member downward with respect to the mounting cylinder, and the spring member is prevented from contaminating the contents in the cylinder chamber. Moreover, since it can prevent that a spring member is immersed in the content, the performance of a spring member is maintained favorably over a long period of time.

  According to the dropper container of the present invention, all the contents in the nozzle member can be taken out by a single push-down operation while keeping the stroke of the push button and the outer shape of the dropper container small.

The upper end portion of the nozzle guide 4c formed on the nozzle member 4 and the lower end portion of the button guide 6c formed on the button member 6 are abuttable so as to be opposed to each other in the vertical direction.
Specifically, the nozzle convex part 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button convex part 27 of the button guide 6c can contact | abut in an up-down direction. Further, at least one of a set of the nozzle convex portion 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button concave portion 28 of the button guide 6c and a set of the nozzle concave portion 16 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button convex portion 27 of the button guide 6c. The pair of convex portions and concave portions can be contacted in the vertical direction (see FIG. 10).

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the nozzle guide 4 c of the nozzle member 4 and the button guide 6 c of the button member 6 are “regulatory positions” in which the convex portions 15 and 27 are opposed to each other in the vertical direction. 6, 8, 10, and 11, relative rotation is possible between the “releasing position” where the convex portions 15, 27 and the concave portions 28, 16 are opposed to each other. is there.
The cover cylinder 5 that rotates integrally with the button guide 6c in the circumferential direction rotates between the “regulation position” and the “release position” with respect to the mounting cylinder 3 that rotates integrally with the nozzle guide 4c in the circumferential direction. It can move in the direction.

  In the example of this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 7, the direction of rotating in the circumferential direction when the mounting cylinder 3 is mounted on the mouth 2 a of the container body 2 is the tightening side A, The direction of rotation in the circumferential direction when removing the mounting cylinder 3 is defined as the loose side B, and the “regulatory position” is the terminal position where the cover cylinder 5 is rotated to the tightening side A with respect to the mounting cylinder 3. "Is a terminal position where the cover cylinder 5 is rotated to the loose side B with respect to the mounting cylinder 3.

  Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the cover cylinder 5 is loosened in the circumferential direction at the restriction position where the nozzle convex portion 15 of the nozzle guide 4 c and the button convex portion 27 of the button guide 6 c face each other. When rotated by 30 ° in the side B (opening direction), as shown in FIG. 7, the position switching rib 20 climbs over the protrusion protrusion 8 in the position switching groove 7, and the side wall (circumference) of the position switching groove 7 is reached. One side wall of the pair of side walls at both ends in the direction abuts. As a result, the position switching rib 20 is engaged with the position switching groove 7, and the cover cylinder 5 and the mounting cylinder 3 are rotated thereafter, and the mounting cylinder 3 and the mouth portion 2 a of the container body 2 are connected. The screw is loosened and the screwing is released.

  That is, at the restriction position where the nozzle convex portion 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button convex portion 27 of the button guide 6c face each other, the cover cylinder 5 is operated to release the screwing between the mounting cylinder 3 and the mouth portion 2a. At this time, the positional relationship between the nozzle guide 4c and the button guide 6c is naturally changed to the release position. At the release position, the nozzle convex portion 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button concave portion 28 of the button guide 6c face each other, and the nozzle concave portion 16 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button convex portion 27 of the button guide 6c face each other. To do.

  On the contrary, when the cover cylinder 5 is rotated in the circumferential tightening side A (closed direction) at the release position shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, first, the cover cylinder 5 and the mounting cylinder 3 are provided. When the screw between the mounting cylinder 3 and the mouth portion 2a of the container body 2 is gradually tightened and the fastening force becomes a predetermined value or more, as shown in FIG. 20 climbs over the overhanging protrusion 8 in the position switching groove 7 and contacts the side wall of the position switching groove 7 (the other side wall of the pair of side walls at both ends in the circumferential direction). That is, the cover cylinder 5 is rotated by 30 ° in the closing direction with respect to the mounting cylinder 3. Thereby, the position switching rib 20 is engaged with the position switching groove 7, and the screw between the mounting cylinder 3 and the mouth portion 2 a of the container body 2 is tightened to the end, and these are screwed together.

  That is, in the release position where the nozzle convex portion 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button concave portion 28 of the button guide 6c face each other, and the nozzle concave portion 16 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button convex portion 27 of the button guide 6c face each other. When the cover cylinder 5 is operated and the mounting cylinder 3 and the mouth portion 2a are screwed together, the positional relationship between the nozzle guide 4c and the button guide 6c is naturally changed to the restricted position. . And in the regulation position, the nozzle convex part 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button convex part 27 of the button guide 6c oppose.

In order to use the dropper container 1 of the present embodiment described above, the mounting cylinder 3 is first removed from the mouth 2a of the container body 2 in the state shown in FIGS. Specifically, the cover cylinder 5 is rotated to the slack side B in the circumferential direction with respect to the mouth 2a, and the mounting cylinder 3 is rotated to the slack side B together with the cover cylinder 5 and removed from the mouth 2a.
At this time, after the cover cylinder 5 rotates relative to the mounting cylinder 3 from the restriction position shown in FIG. 3 to the release position shown in FIG. It has become.

As shown in FIGS. 5 to 8, when the mounting cylinder 3 is removed from the mouth portion 2 a, the nozzle member 4 moves the stroke amount S <b> 1 (suction stroke amount. Move down by an amount equivalent to 6). Accordingly, the piston cylinder 4b of the nozzle member 4 moves downward relative to the cylinder cylinder 6a of the button member 6, the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 increases, and the inside of the cylinder chamber 24 becomes negative pressure. This negative pressure acts on the contents of the container body 2 through the inside of the piston cylinder 4b and the nozzle cylinder 4a, and the contents are sucked into the nozzle cylinder 4a.
At this time, the downward movement of the nozzle member 4 with respect to the mounting cylinder 3 is such that the lower surface of the bottom wall of the large-diameter cylindrical portion 13 of the nozzle guide 4c is relative to the upper end portion (locking portion) of the inner cylinder 3b of the mounting cylinder 3. Allowed in the range until the contact (range of the stroke amount S1), and after the contact, further downward movement is restricted. Thereby, the contents sucked into the nozzle cylinder 4a are accurately measured to a predetermined value.

  At this time, the nozzle convex portion 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button convex portion 27 of the button guide 6c are separated in the vertical direction by the stroke amount S1. In FIG. 6, the vertical distance between the nozzle convex portion 15 of the nozzle guide 4c and the button concave portion 28 of the button guide 6c, the nozzle concave portion 16 of the nozzle guide 4c, and the button convex portion 27 of the button guide 6c Is the stroke amount S2 (discharge stroke amount) that is allowed when the push-down button 6b is subsequently pressed down. That is, the discharge stroke amount S2 is made larger than the suction stroke amount S1.

  Also, what is denoted by reference numeral S3 in FIG. 6 is the vertical distance from the top wall of the push button 6b to the top wall of the cover cylinder 5, and is a virtual stroke amount S3 (press button stroke amount) of the push button 6b. is there. However, in this embodiment, the push button stroke amount S3 is larger than the discharge stroke amount S2, and therefore the vertical movement amount when the push button 6b is actually depressed is equal to the stroke amount S2. .

  Next, as shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, when the push-down button 6 b is pushed down with respect to the cover tube 5, the cylinder tube 6 a is pushed down together with the push-down button 6 b, and the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 is reduced. Depending on the amount of decrease in the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24, the contents in the nozzle cylinder 4a are discharged from the lower end opening of the nozzle cylinder 4a.

After discharging the contents, the mounting cylinder 3 is mounted on the mouth 2a of the container body 2 again. Specifically, the cover tube 5 is rotated to the tightening side A in the circumferential direction with respect to the mouth portion 2a, and the mounting tube 3 is rotated to the tightening side A together with the cover tube 5, so that the mouth portion 2a Installing.
At this time, the cover cylinder 5 is rotationally moved from the release position shown in FIG. 7 to the restriction position shown in FIG. Further, the nozzle member 4 moves upward with respect to the mounting cylinder 3, and the upper end portion of the nozzle guide 4c comes into contact with the lower end portion of the button guide 6c. This prevents the push button 6b from being unintentionally depressed with respect to the cover cylinder 5.

  In the dropper container 1 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, when the cover cylinder 5 is arranged at the restriction position with respect to the mounting cylinder 3, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the nozzle guide The convex portions 15 and 27 provided at the upper end portion of 4c and the lower end portion of the button guide 6c are arranged to face each other. Therefore, in this restricting position, the nozzle member 4 and the button member 6 are brought into contact with each other with the convex portions 15 and 27.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7, when the cover cylinder 5 is disposed at the release position with respect to the mounting cylinder 3, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, the upper end portion of the nozzle guide 4c and the lower end of the button guide 6c. The convex part 15 and the concave part 28 provided in the part, and the concave part 16 and the convex part 27 are arranged to face each other. Therefore, when the push button 6b is pushed down with respect to the cover cylinder 5 in this release position, as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the nozzle member 4 and the button member 6 are a set of convex portions 15 and concave portions 28, And the convex part and recessed part of at least any one group are made to contact | abut among the group of the recessed part 16 and the convex part 27. FIG.
Therefore, the vertical distance between the nozzle member 4 and the button member 6 at the release position shown in FIG. 10 is larger than the vertical distance between the nozzle member 4 and the button member 6 at the restriction position shown in FIG. Get smaller. Specifically, the difference in the vertical direction between the nozzle guide 4c and the button guide 6c is equal to the difference (S2-S1) obtained by subtracting the stroke amount S1 (suction stroke amount) from the stroke amount S2 (discharge stroke amount) shown in FIG. The distance gets closer.

Therefore, when the mounting cylinder 3 is removed from the opening 2a of the container body 2 at the restricting position, the amount of increase in the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 (the stroke amount S1 in which the piston cylinder 4b moves downward relative to the cylinder cylinder 6a). More specifically, the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 when the push-down button 6b is pushed down at the release position as compared to the increase amount of the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 from FIG. 2 to FIG. Decrease amount (corresponding to the stroke amount S2 in which the cylinder cylinder 6a moves downward relative to the piston cylinder 4b, specifically, the decrease amount of the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 from FIG. 6 to FIG. 10). But it gets bigger. That is, the discharge volume (discharge amount) when discharging the contents in the nozzle cylinder 4a is larger than the suction volume (suction amount) when sucking the contents into the nozzle cylinder 4a.
Thereby, all the contents in the nozzle cylinder 4a can be taken out by one operation of depressing the push button 6b. Therefore, the operability is improved.

Moreover, the cylinder chamber 24 is formed in the top cylinder-shaped cylinder cylinder 6a. When the push-down button 6b is pressed down, the cylinder cylinder 6a itself moves downward relative to the piston cylinder 4b to reduce the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24. For this reason, compared with the case where the elastic dome of patent document 1 (patent 4251340 gazette) mentioned above is used, the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 can be reduced greatly, suppressing the amount of pushing down of the push-down button 6b small. Large amount of contents can be secured).
In this way, the stroke (pressing amount) of the push button 6b can be kept small, so that the operability can be further improved. Moreover, it becomes possible to form the outer shape of the dropper container 1 in a compact manner.

  Further, in this embodiment, the mounting cylinder 3 is screwed into the mouth portion 2a of the container body 2, and the restricting position is a terminal position where the cover cylinder 5 is rotated to the tightening side A with respect to the mounting cylinder 3. The release position is the terminal position where the cover cylinder 5 is rotated to the loose side B with respect to the mounting cylinder 3, and therefore has the following effects.

That is, in this case, when attaching the mounting cylinder 3 to the mouth 2a of the container body 2, the cover cylinder 5 is operated to tighten the mounting cylinder 3 together with the cover cylinder 5 against the mouth 2a of the container body 2. Rotate to the intrusion side A. At this time, the cover cylinder 5 naturally moves to the tightening side A with respect to the mounting cylinder 3 and is arranged at the restriction position. Therefore, when the dropper container 1 is used next time, the mounting cylinder 3 is disposed at the restriction position.
Further, when removing the mounting cylinder 3 from the mouth 2a of the container body 2, the cover cylinder 5 is operated to move the mounting cylinder 3 together with the cover cylinder 5 to the loose side B with respect to the mouth 2a of the container body 2. Rotate. At this time, the cover cylinder 5 naturally moves to the loose side B with respect to the mounting cylinder 3 and is disposed at the release position. Therefore, when the push button 6b is pressed down, the mounting cylinder 3 is located at the release position.

That is, the operation of mounting the mounting cylinder 3 on the mouth portion 2a of the container body 2 and the operation of placing the cover cylinder 5 at the restriction position with respect to the mounting cylinder 3 can be performed by a single operation. Further, the operation of removing the mounting cylinder 3 from the mouth 2a of the container body 2 and the operation of placing the cover cylinder 5 at the release position with respect to the mounting cylinder 3 can be performed by a single operation.
Therefore, the operability of the dropper container 1 can be further improved.

In the present embodiment, the mounting cylinder 3 is provided with a locking portion (the upper end portion of the inner cylinder 3b) that is brought into contact with the nozzle member 4 when the nozzle member 4 moves downward with respect to the mounting cylinder 3. Therefore, the following effects are achieved.
That is, in this case, when the mounting cylinder 3 is removed from the mouth 2a of the container body 2, the nozzle member 4 moves downward by a predetermined amount (stroke amount S1) with respect to the mounting cylinder 3. Accordingly, the amount of increase in the internal volume of the cylinder chamber 24 also becomes a predetermined value, so that the amount of the content sucked into the nozzle cylinder 4a becomes the same value every time.
Therefore, according to this dropper container 1, when the contents are sucked into the nozzle cylinder 4a, the weighing is accurately performed, and the amount of the contents discharged by the pressing operation of the push button 6b is an expected amount. (Predetermined value).

Further, in the present embodiment, the spring member 17 that urges the nozzle member 4 downward with respect to the mounting cylinder 3 is provided outside the cylinder chamber 24. Therefore, the following effects can be obtained.
That is, in this case, the spring member 17 can surely urge the nozzle member 4 downward with respect to the mounting cylinder 3, and the spring member 17 may contaminate the contents in the cylinder chamber 24. Is prevented. In addition, since the spring member 17 can be prevented from being immersed in the contents, the performance of the spring member 17 is well maintained over a long period of time.
