BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a liquid pouring cap used, for example, for soy sauce.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a generally used soy sauce cap or the like, a peripheral wall for fitting the mouth and neck of a container body is hung down from a lower surface of a thick top plate, and an outer peripheral portion is attached to a lower surface of the top plate surrounded by the peripheral wall. There is known a cap in which a concave portion is formed by leaving a hole, and a base end and a distal end are formed on both left and right surfaces of the concave portion and the top plate, respectively, and two left and right nozzle holes are formed in the diameter direction of the top plate.

[0003]

When the container is tilted in a state where the peripheral wall is fitted to the mouth and neck of the container, the liquid discharging cap passes through the nozzle hole located at one lower side. The body fluid is poured out, and the replacement air is provided at the same time from the nozzle hole located on the upper side so that the replacement air can enter the inside of the container. When it was knocked down, the liquid leaked through the nozzle holes.

[0004] In the present invention, the lower part of the top plate inside the peripheral wall is
A valve is provided that can be opened and closed by the vertical movement of a rod-shaped handle that rises through the center of the cap top plate so as to prevent the liquid leakage.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A cap according to the present invention comprises a cap body, a plug member and a seat.

The cap body 1 hangs a peripheral wall 3 for fitting the mouth and neck of the container body from a lower surface of an outer peripheral portion of a thick top plate 2. A concave portion 4 is formed in the lower surface of the top plate surrounded by the peripheral wall, leaving a peripheral portion, and a base end and a distal end are opened on both the left and right surfaces of the concave portion and the top plate, respectively. Drill.

The cap having the above-mentioned structure is a conventionally known cap. When the cap is fitted to the mouth and neck of the container and the liquid is discharged with the tip of the one nozzle hole facing downward, the cap is replaced from the other nozzle hole. Working air flows into the container.

In the present invention, a vertical hole 6 is formed in the center of the top plate 2 of the cap.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a plug-like member, which forms a valve with a seat described later. The plug member is provided with a horizontal and outward elastic first flange 11 at the lower end of a rod-shaped handle 10 having a large-diameter knob 9 at the upper end, which is vertically and movably inserted into the vertical hole 6 in a watertight manner. An elastic second flange 13 expanding downward and outward from the outer periphery of the flange 11 in a tapered manner via a first hinge 12, and a third flange 15 horizontally via a second hinge 14 from the outer periphery of the second flange. Each of the third flanges 15 is projected so as to contact the lower surface of the top plate between the peripheral wall 3 and the recess 4 of the cap body. The second flange 13 has a plurality of liquid outlet holes.
Drill 16

The first flange 11 and the second flange 13 are formed so that the second flange 13 can be elastically inverted as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 by moving the bar-shaped handle 10 up and down. When the knob 9 is pressed down from the ascending state of 1, the first and the second
The first and second flanges are elastically restored so as to descend as shown in FIG. 1 with the dead end when the lower ends of the rod-shaped handles descend to approximately the same height as the third flange 15 due to the elastic deformation of the flanges 11 and 13.

The receiving seat 18 is tapered from the inner periphery of the fourth flange 19 in contact with the lower surface of the third flange 15 to the fifth inner side.
The flange 20 is protruded, and the flange hole portion of the fifth flange is closed by a bottom plate 22 having a large opening 21 at the center.

The fifth flange 20 is provided with the plug member 8 as described above.
Is located below by elastic reversal, the second flange
The liquid outlet 16 is provided so as to be in contact with the surface 13 and the opening 21 of the bottom plate 22 is provided such that the lower end surface of the rod-shaped handle 10 and the lower surface of the first flange 11 are sealed.

The third flange 15 of the plug member 8 and the fourth
When the cap is fitted to the mouth and neck of the container body, the flange 19 is sandwiched between the upper end surface of the mouth and neck and the lower surface of the top plate between the peripheral wall 3 of the cap body and the recess.

Each of the above-mentioned three members is appropriately molded integrally with a synthetic resin material.

[0017]

[Effects of the Invention] The present invention has the above-described configuration, and is formed by the cap body 1, the plug-like member 8, and the receiving seat 18, and does not push down the rod-shaped handle 10 which stands through the center of the cap body top plate and rises. By pulling up, the valve formed by the plug-shaped member and the seat is provided so as to be opened and closed, so that the operation is easy, and the rod-shaped handle is pushed up and pulled up by the first and second flanges of the plug-shaped member. The valve does not open or close due to container vibration or the like, unless it is manually operated, and the knob 9 at the upper end of the rod-shaped handle is located upward, It is convenient to be able to know the open / closed state of the valve just by looking at the bottom.
