In Patent Document 1, as described above, a pinch valve provided with a lever for sandwiching the discharge tube in a normal state and maintaining a non-communication state is provided, and elasticity provided in the lever itself is used as a biasing means, so that an external force It is described that it has a restoring force that returns to the normal state even if it is deformed by the bias. This mechanism is composed of a movable body and a fixed body, and the fixed body is fixed to the upper surface of the lid. Since the user inhales the drinking water in the drinking container and uses it, the lever itself does not require a large restoring force, and the spring does not require the restoring force to be applied. To be done.

In recent years, attention has been paid to the reason that drinking water containing hydrogen gas has a positive effect on health, and various types of drinking water containing hydrogen gas have been generated, and various hydrogen water generators have been proposed.

In order to popularize the use of hydrogen water, it is proposed to attach a mechanism for maintaining the discharge tube in a non-conducting state and a conducting state on the surface of the lid. It is required to make the height as small as possible and reduce the number of parts to reduce the cost.

Further, there is a need to not only provide hydrogen water, but also to increase the pressure of hydrogen water in the drinking container and to discharge the hydrogen water stored in the drinking container from the discharge tube provided in the lid by utilizing the high pressure. When stored in a container, hydrogen has a property and a characteristic that it easily escapes from the container even if there is a small gap. A mechanism that can handle high-pressure hydrogen water in the drinking container is required.

Conventional mechanisms cannot meet these needs.

Under such circumstances, the present invention is applicable in the case of using the hydrogen gas-containing water liquid in view of the above point, and when the hydrogen gas-containing water liquid whose pressure is increased by the injection of the hydrogen gas is formed. When mounting a mechanism that keeps the discharge tube in a non-conductive state and a conductive state on the lid surface, it is possible to reduce the height of the mechanism as much as possible and reduce the number of parts to reduce cost. Therefore, it is an issue to make it possible to promote the use of hydrogen water.

In the above explanation, the hydrogen water in the drinking container was referred to, but hydrogen gas is not limited to drinking water, and juice, coffee, tea, other favorite drinks, as well as medicinal drinks that are medicated, agriculture and fisheries The water used for agriculture and fishing will also be available when hydrogen gas is input.

FIG. 1 is a diagram for explaining the concept of the present invention. FIG. 1(1) is an overall view of a drinking container for explaining the concept of the present invention, and FIG. 1(2) is a view showing details of a molding protrusion.

The present invention comprises a container main body and a lid provided at a spout of the container main body and having a through-hole portion, and a water solution containing hydrogen gas is stored inside the container, and the lid is the through-hole. The lid or the water liquid storage used in a water liquid storage container storing a hydrogen gas-containing water liquid, which includes a discharge tube that penetrates through a portion and a tube holding means that holds the discharge tube. The above-described problems are solved by configuring a container, typically a drinking container, as follows.

In FIG. 1, a water-liquid storage container, for example, a drinking container is prepared. Examples of the water liquid storage container include a drinking container, a PET bottle for storing drinking water, a pot for storing medicinal water, a pot for storing liquid for industrial use, agricultural use, and fishery. Hereinafter, a drinking container as a typical example will be described as an example. If other examples are used, state that fact.

The drinking container 1 includes a container body 2 and a lid (sometimes referred to as a cap) 3 attached to the container body 2.

The container body 2 is composed of an upper bottle part 4 for storing hydrogen water as drinking water and a hydrogen generation part 5 for generating hydrogen gas. The container body 2 has a spout 6 at the upper end and a screw 7 on the outer surface of the spout 6.

The lid 3 has a threaded portion 8 on its inner surface, and the threaded portion 8 is screwed into the threaded portion 7, so that the lid 3 is securely held in the container body 2 via the spout 6.

The hydrogen generation part 5 has a screw part 11 on the outer surface. The bottle portion 4 has a screw portion 12 on the outer surface of the lower end portion, and the hydrogen generating portion 5 is detachably attached to the bottle portion 4 by screwing the screw portion 11 and the screw portion 12. Grooves 13 for accommodating the packing are formed in the upper surface of the hydrogen generation part 5, and the packing is accommodated, and the watertightness and airtightness between the bottle part 4 and the hydrogen generation part 5 are secured.

The hydrogen generation part 5 has an internal space part 16, and the hydrogen generation agent 15 can be stored in the internal space part.

The bottle part 4 has an internal space 16 at the lower end, a hydrogen gas flow passage 17 communicating with the internal space 16 is formed, and a check valve 18 is arranged in the hydrogen gas flow passage 17. Due to the action of the check valve 18, hydrogen gas or drinking water containing hydrogen gas does not flow back.

A small hole 19 is provided on the bottom surface of the bottle portion 4 so as to face the check valve 18.

Water is added to the hydrogen generating agent 15. Hydrogen gas is generated by the reaction between the hydrogen generating agent 15 and moisture, and the hydrogen gas passes through the check valve 18 at a constant pressure and flows out from the small hole 19 into the bottle portion. The outflowing hydrogen gas is mixed with the water liquid in the bottle portion to form drinking water containing hydrogen gas, that is, hydrogen water.

On the outer surface of the container body 2, a display line 22 indicating the head height of hydrogen water stored inside the bottle is displayed, hydrogen water is formed up to the display line 22, and the internal space above the display line 22 is The hydrogen storage part 21 is formed.

The hydrogen storage part 21 becomes a pressure part by increasing the pressure from normal pressure as the amount of hydrogen gas generated increases.

The device for increasing the pressure of the hydrogen storage portion 21 is not limited to this example. It may be a device of a type that generates a hydrogen gas by installing a hydrogen generation source in the bottle part 4, or even a device of a type that inputs hydrogen from a hydrogen gas cylinder into the bottle part 4 has a high pressure inside the hydrogen storage part. Can be converted.

In the present invention, such a hydrogen water generator is used as a typical water liquid storage container, and a lid worn on the water liquid storage container and a water liquid storage container provided with the lid are proposed.

The lid 3 has the following configuration.

A through-hole portion 31 that penetrates the lid 3 in the vertical direction is provided, and a discharge tube 32 is installed through the through-hole portion 31. The tip 33 of the discharge tube 32 reaches the bottom of the bottle portion, and the tip 33 opens near the bottom. When the discharge tube 32 is provided so as to penetrate the through hole portion 31, the gap between the discharge tube 32 and the through hole portion 31 is closed by the adhesive.

Tube clamping means 34 is provided for clamping the discharge tube 32 at its upper end to form and maintain a non-communication state.

Formed on the outer surface of the lid are molding protrusions 53 and 54 that are molded at the same time when the lid is molded. That is, the molding protrusion is formed on the outer surface of the lid. The molding protrusion has two functions. One of them is a function of receiving the pressed discharge tube 32 and holding it by the lid 3 (function shown by 54), which is brought about by the protrusion 54. The other is a function of receiving a pressing force of a spring used to form a movable body and holding it by the lid 3 (function indicated by 53). The molding protrusion that achieves such a function may have a single structure or a divided structure divided according to function. FIG. 1 shows a molding protrusion having a single structure, but since it has two functions, two descriptions, 53 and 54, are made.

The lid 3 includes a tube sandwiching means 34, and the tube sandwiching means 34 is formed by a movable body 38, that is, a movable portion 35 and a fixed portion 36.

The movable portion 35 is composed of a movable body 38 and a spring 39 which are arranged in a direction perpendicular to the discharge tube 32, and a part of the movable body 38 is formed in a wrap-around portion 40 having a shape that wraps around the discharge tube 32. The wraparound portion 40 can contact the discharge tube 32 and can move along the outer surface of the lid 3.

The fixing portion 36 is formed by the molding protrusions 53 and 54 alone or by the molding protrusions 53 and 54 and a member provided on the molding protrusions. When the member provided on the molding protrusion is formed, the discharge tube 32 is fixed by contacting the member provided on the molding protrusion. As described above, the fixing portion 36 is formed by being used as all or part of the molding protrusions 53 and 54, and is formed on the molding protrusion.

The spring 39 is connected to the movable body 38 via a pressing piece 41 (see FIG. 3) provided at one end of the spring, and is connected to the molding projections 53, 54 via a connecting piece 42 provided at the other end of the spring. Then, the movable body 38 is automatically acted by the pressing force at all times, and the movable body is operated in the acting direction by the pressing force of the spring 39 to bring the wraparound portion 40 into contact with the discharge tube 32, thereby causing the discharge tube 32 to move. The tube pinching means 34 presses against the fixed portion 36, and thus the discharge tube 32 is sandwiched between the movable portion 35 and the fixed portion 36 to form and maintain the discharge tube 32 in a non-conductive state.

The spring 39 forms the discharge tube 32 used for discharging hydrogen water in a non-permeable state by the pressing force and maintains the discharge tube 32, and the hydrogen water containing hydrogen gas contained in the bottle portion may leak to the outside. To prevent. Since the spring is used, it is possible to easily form a large pressing force, and it is possible to prevent even high-pressure hydrogen water containing hydrogen gas from leaking to the outside.

When a pressing force in the direction opposite to the pressing force applied by the user of the drinking container is applied to the pressing portion 45 of the movable body which is arranged outside the lid in the pressing force direction of the spring 39, the movable body 38 is moved, By operating in the opposite direction, the wraparound portion 40 is separated from the discharge tube 32, and the tube pinching means 34 releases the pinch, thereby forming and maintaining the discharge tube 32 in a conductive state.

As a result, the user can use the hydrogen water that is automatically ejected at the pressure of the hydrogen reservoir 21 via the discharge tube 32 during the action of the pressing force in the opposite direction.

According to the drinking container 1 or the lid 3 used in the drinking container 1 configured as described above, the molding protrusions 53 and 54 formed at the time of molding the lid are provided on the front surface of the lid, and the molding is performed. The tube sandwiching means 34 is formed by utilizing the protrusions 53 and 54. When mounting the mechanism for maintaining the discharge tube in the non-conductive state and the conductive state on the surface of the lid, by using the molding projections 53 and 54 molded at the time of molding the lid, the height of the mechanism is minimized. It is possible to reduce the cost by reducing the number of parts.

By using the molding protrusions described as the molding protrusions 53 and 54, the spring 39 can be easily attached between a part of the lid and the movable body 38, and is formed by forming or supplying hydrogen gas. The high pressure can be used to automatically eject and discharge the hydrogen water stored in the drinking container 1 from the discharge tube 32. Even if a high pressure is applied to the discharge tube 32, the high pressure is normally opposed to the high pressure. The discharge tube 32 can be kept in a disconnected state.

The lid 3 used in the drinking container 1 having such a structure can be applied to a plastic bottle 1 for storing a small amount of hydrogen water, such as 350 to 500 ml, for storing hydrogen water whose inside has a normal pressure.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example in which the lid 3 having such a structure is applied to a plastic bottle 1 for storing hydrogen water in which the inside of the container has a normal pressure.

As shown in FIG. 2, a drinking container 1 having a unique lid 3A and capable of containing drinking water containing hydrogen gas is prepared inside the container body, and is replaced with the unique lid 3A. 3 is prepared. A mechanism having the above-described configuration is held on the lid 3 which is replaced by the unique lid 3A.

The lid 3 is replaced with a unique lid 3A attached to the drinking container 1, and the lid 3 is equipped with a hydrogen charging device and is attached to a screw portion of the upper portion of the drinking container 1 containing drinking water. The lid is replaced.

When the lid is replaced in this manner, the discharge tube 32 is sandwiched between the movable portion 35 and the fixed portion 36 by the tube sandwiching means 34, and the discharge tube 32 is formed in a non-conductive state and maintained. Is formed.

When the discharge tube is formed and maintained in a non-conductive state, hydrogen gas is injected into the drinking container, and the pressure inside the water-liquid storage container is increased. Ready to use the drinking water in the drinking container as needed.

When the preparation is completed, the user can use the tube holding means 34 to release the discharge tube 32 from the disconnected state, and suck the drinking water in the drinking container from the discharge tube to discharge the drinking water. In this way, a method of using drinking water at any time is constructed.

In FIG. 2(1), a user prepares a plastic bottle 1 for storing hydrogen water whose inside is a normal pressure and the lid 3 described above. A plastic bottle 1 for storing hydrogen water is composed of a container body 2 and a lid 3A. The lid 3A has a threaded portion 8 on its inner surface, the threaded portion 8 is screwed into the threaded portion 7, and the lid 3 is It is kept watertight and airtight in the container body 2 through the outlet 6.

The lid 3 prepared for replacement by the user is replaced with the lid 3A and installed. For this replacement and installation, the lid 3 has a threaded portion 8 on the inner surface, the threaded portion 8 is screwed into the threaded portion 7, and the lid 3 is watertight and airtight to the container body 2 via the spout 6. Held in.

As described above, the lid 3 has the through-hole portion 31 and the discharge tube 32 penetrating the through-hole portion 31 and the discharge tube 32, and the tube clamp for sandwiching the discharge tube 32 to form and maintain the non-communication state. The tube sandwiching means 34 is formed of a movable portion 35 and a fixed portion 36.

The spring 39 automatically acts on the movable body 38 by the pressing force at all times to move the movable portion 35 in the pressing force direction of the spring 39, bring the wraparound portion 40 into contact with the discharge tube 32, and move the discharge tube 32 to the fixed portion 36. It is pressed and sandwiched between the movable portion 35 and the fixed portion 36.

The pressing force of the spring 39 forms and maintains the discharge tube 32 in a non-conductive state, and the hydrogen water contained in the bottle is prevented from leaking to the outside.

On the other hand, when the user uses hydrogen water, a pressing force in a direction opposite to the pressing force applied by the user acts on the pressing portion 45 of the movable body 38 arranged outside the lid in the pressing force direction of the spring 39.

The movable body 38 is operated in the reverse direction by the action of the pressing force in the reverse direction, the wraparound portion 40 is separated from the discharge tube 32, the pinching is released, and the discharge tube 32 is formed and maintained in the conductive state.

As a result, the user can use the hydrogen water stored in the hydrogen reservoir 21 via the discharge tube 32 by sucking it through the discharge tube 32.

Since the internal pressure of this hydrogen water-containing PET bottle 1 is not increased, the hydrogen water contained in the hydrogen water-containing PET bottle 1 cannot be automatically discharged from the discharge tube. At the time of use, the hydrogen water stored in the hydrogen water storage PET bottle 1 is appropriately sucked from the discharge tube, and at the time of suction, air is appropriately introduced from the discharge tube 32.

According to the present invention, a spring is adopted, and it is possible to cope with the case where a water liquid represented by hydrogen water is used. The spring automatically acts on the movable body with a pressing force to move the movable body in the direction of the pressing force of the spring to bring the wraparound portion into contact with the discharge tube and press the discharge tube against the fixed portion to move the movable body. By sandwiching between the body and the fixed part that will be the molding projection, a mechanism can be configured to form and maintain the discharge tube used for discharging hydrogen water in a non-permeable state, and a large pressing force can be obtained in forming the non-conductive state. It was possible to incorporate it into the lid.

According to this, it is possible to deal with the use of hydrogen water containing hydrogen gas, and particularly to deal with the case where the hydrogen gas-containing water liquid whose pressure is increased by the injection of the discharge tube 32 hydrogen gas is formed. Since the mechanism with the tube clamping means is attached on the surface of the lid that keeps the discharge tube in the non-conductive state and the conductive state, the height of the mechanism is made as small as possible and the number of parts is reduced to reduce the cost. It is possible to promote the use of hydrogen water using drinking containers.

In addition, it is excellent in responding to the case where hydrogen gas-containing hydrogen water whose pressure has been increased by the injection of hydrogen gas is formed, and the high-pressure hydrogen gas-containing water liquid is discharged from the container via the discharge tube by utilizing the pressure. The needs to be discharged as

The mechanism described above can also be applied to a plastic bottle containing hydrogen water.
