Description

  The present invention relates to a bottle container in which a liquid stored in the container is ejected and used by a pump or the like, and more particularly, to a bottle container provided with a storage space in which a part of the contents can be stored as a reserve.

  Conventionally, bottle containers that store liquid soaps, deodorants, and the like inside the containers and inject them with a pump, a gun spray, or the like are widely used.

  In these bottle containers, it may be difficult to visually check the remaining amount of the contents, such as when it is an opaque bottle or when the contents adhere to the inner wall even if it is a transparent bottle. . In addition, these bottle containers are often used on various floors such as washstands and floors, so there is little opportunity to know changes in weight and you will not notice a decrease in contents. There are many cases. In addition, it is difficult to grasp the exact remaining amount of the contents from visual inspection and the weight of the container. After all, whether or not there is an amount that can withstand one use remains. There is a fact that it is not understood without it. Because of these circumstances, if you do not notice that the remaining amount of content is decreasing, or if you forget to replenish it, you are exhausted when you need the content. There was a case.

  Therefore, in general, in preparation for the case where the content is exhausted, a spare content is prepared and supplemented appropriately when the content is exhausted. However, depending on the situation at the time of use and the nature of the contents, it may be difficult or inconvenient to replenish immediately. For example, if the liquid soap runs out during bathing, the bather must leave the spare contents naked and go to the storage location, and fill in the naked body. Etc., there were inconveniences. Further, there is not always a spare content, and there is a case where the supplement cannot be replenished because the spare content is not always provided.

  In view of the problems as described above, a part of the contents can be stored as spare contents inside the container, and the container can be used when the replenishment is urgently needed. Has also been proposed. For example, in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-1425), a certain amount of liquid detergent or the like stored in a pump bottle for liquid detergent or the like is ensured without being completely consumed by normal use. As for liquid detergent pump bottles that can be used, liquid detergent pump bottles with a spare space are provided to ensure a certain amount of liquid detergent is not consumed completely during normal use. Has been.

JP 2008-1425 A

  As described above, even in the past, a plurality of storage spaces are formed inside the container, a certain amount of contents are reserved as reserves, and used temporarily when the contents run out, so that replacement and refilling are possible. Techniques that can secure time for preparing contents for use have been proposed.

  However, conventionally provided pump bottles for liquid detergent or the like have a wall-like shape on the bottom of the container in order to distinguish between a storage space for storing contents used in normal times and a storage space for storing spare contents. A partition was provided. And this partition was formed in the wall shape which stands | starts up from the container bottom face. For this reason, when manufacturing the said container, you must form a wall-shaped partition member so that it may stand up from the bottom face of a container, and it is difficult to manufacture simply by means, such as blow molding of a synthetic resin. There was a problem. Therefore, the present invention is to provide a bottle container that can be easily manufactured while being a bottle container provided with a spare storage space by forming at least a part of the bottom part of the container as a partitioning portion. Let it be the first problem.

  In addition, in the case of a bottle container provided with a plurality of accommodation spaces that has been provided in the past, the contents are dispersed in the plurality of accommodation spaces and collected at the suction port of the injection member when only a small amount remains inside. It was difficult. In particular, due to the influence of the structure for partitioning the inside of the bottle, a part of the contents stays in the corners of the container, making it difficult to use the contents efficiently. Therefore, the present invention provides a bottle container that can efficiently use the contents while being a bottle container having a plurality of storage spaces by collecting the contents around the suction port of the injection member. Is a second problem.

  That is, the present invention is a bottle container comprising a bottle body capable of containing a liquid therein and an injection member for injecting the contents of the bottle body to the outside in order to solve at least one of the above problems. The bottle body has an inner space which is opened and partitioned by bending the bottom surface or the side surface or holding a small container having an upper opening in the inner space. Provided is a bottle container in which the above-described preliminary accommodating space is formed.

  The bottle body can be formed as a container that can store a liquid therein, and its volume and shape depend on various circumstances such as the amount and use of the contents to be accommodated and the capacity of a pre-accommodating space described later. It can be determined as appropriate. Since the bottle container according to the present invention stores part of the contents in the reserve storage space and uses it when the contents are lost, the decrease in the remaining amount of the contents is overlooked. This is particularly effective for easily opaque bottles. In addition, it is a bottle container that is always used on various floors such as a wash basin or on the floor because it is particularly effective when the container is difficult to understand the remaining amount of contents. desirable.

  The contents stored in the bottle body may be liquid, and may be not only liquid but also semi-fluid. For example, liquid soaps such as body soaps, bath cosmetics such as rinses, liquid cosmetics such as lotions, liquid deodorant fragrances, liquid seasonings such as soy sauce and dressings, and other liquid products can be widely used.

  In the internal space of the bottle main body, one or more spare storage spaces are formed that open upward. Such a preliminary storage space can be formed by bending the bottom surface or side surface of the bottle body, or by holding a small container having an open top in the internal space.

  When the preliminary storage space is formed by bending the side surface of the bottle body, it can be formed as a liquid pool in which the side surface of the bottle body protrudes outwardly in a bag shape or a box shape, and the wall surface of the bottle body is It can be formed as a liquid reservoir that is bent so as to protrude in a bag shape or a box shape toward the inner side (internal space side).

  The preliminary accommodating space can also be formed by a partition part in which the bottom surface of the bottle body is bent. That is, at least the lower side of the bottle body can be divided by a partition portion protruding from the bottom surface formed by bending the bottom surface of the bottle body. That is, the internal space of the bottle body is a main storage space for storing contents to be used in normal times and a spare storage space for storing contents to be used when the contents in the main storage space are exhausted. Can be formed.

  The main storage space can be formed as a part or all of the internal space of the bottle body other than the preliminary storage space, and the shape and overall volume of the bottle body, the amount of contents to be stored It can be formed as appropriate according to various circumstances such as application and usage. However, since the main storage space is a storage space for storing contents used in normal times, a volume capable of storing a quantity of contents that does not cause inconvenience in normal use depending on the use of the contents. It is desirable to form as.

  The preliminary storage space may be formed as a space that is partitioned from the main storage space and open upward from the internal space of the bottle body. When the preliminary accommodating space is formed on the bottom surface side of the internal space by the partition portion, the preliminary accommodating space is adjacent in the horizontal direction and has a volume that can store at least one use amount of contents in normal use. It can be formed as a space. The volume of the preliminary storage space is preferably formed as a volume capable of storing the contents for two to five times of normal usage, particularly as a volume capable of storing the contents for three to four times of normal usage. It is desirable to do. Even if the contents are not available and cannot be replenished in time, or if the contents are exhausted and forgotten to be replenished, etc., the contents may be used multiple times in the spare storage space. This is because storing the amount of contents that can be used increases the number of times that the contents are used up completely. On the other hand, if the volume is increased too much, the volume of the main storage space is reduced, and replenishment may be forgotten due to an increase in the number of times the contents in the spare storage space are used.

  The preliminary accommodating space may be provided at a plurality of locations, for example, the partition portion may be formed by a wall surface that intersects at one or more locations. The plurality of preliminary accommodating spaces can be formed, for example, by dividing the space below the bottle body by a partitioning portion that intersects in a Y shape or a cross shape in plan view. According to such a configuration, it is possible to expand the spare storage space volume and store more contents. Moreover, the said partition part can also be formed by the wall surface which protrudes circularly.

  When the content stored in the main storage space is exhausted, the content stored in the preliminary storage space is used. The use of the contents in the preliminary storage space is, for example, when the preliminary storage space is partitioned on the bottom side of the internal space, for example, by replacing the nozzle of the injection member with the preliminary storage space, It can be performed by tilting and moving the contents in the preliminary accommodating space into the main accommodating space. In addition, when the preliminary storage space is formed in a small container that exists in the side surface of the container body or in the internal space, the bottle container is tilted so that the contents in the preliminary storage space are placed in the main storage space. It can be done by moving.

  The partition portion may be formed in a shape that divides the internal space of the bottle main body into the main storage space and the auxiliary storage space. For example, at least a part of the bottom surface of the bottle main body is reversed "V" It can be formed by bending in a letter shape and projecting across the bottom surface. Such a partition may be formed in a convex or wall shape in addition to the inverted “V” shape. The bottle container according to the present invention is formed by bending the bottom and side surfaces of the bottle main body to form the partition part, so that a process such as attaching a partition member to the inside of the container becomes unnecessary. It can be easily prepared by means such as blow molding.

  The position where the partitioning portion is provided can be appropriately formed according to various circumstances such as the shape of the bottom surface of the bottle main body, the volume of the preliminary accommodation space, etc., for example, so as to cross the center of the bottom surface of the bottle main body. An inverted “V” shaped protrusion can be formed. Depending on the volume desired for the preliminary accommodating space, it may be formed not on the center of the bottom surface of the bottle body but on one side.

  The height of the partition portion can be appropriately adjusted according to various circumstances such as the volume of the preliminary accommodating space and the mode of use of the bottle container. However, the height of the partition is preferably 1/3 or less, more preferably 1/3 to 1/10 of the height of the bottle body, and particularly 1/5 to 1/1 of the height of the bottle body. 8 is desirable. This is because if the partition portion is too low, the volume of the spare storage space becomes small, a sufficient amount of contents cannot be stored, and when the container is tilted or falls, This is because the contents may move to the main accommodation space unintentionally. On the contrary, if the partition portion is too high, the volume of the preliminary storage space that expands in proportion to the height of the partition portion becomes excessive, and the volume of the main storage space may be reduced.

  As the injection member provided in the bottle main body, a material for injecting the liquid filled in the internal space of the bottle main body to the outside is used. For example, a pump provided with a nozzle, a gun spray, or the like can be used. When the contents in the preliminary accommodation space are moved to the main accommodation space by inclining the bottle main body, it is desirable that the injection member is such that the lower end (suction port) of the nozzle is located on the bottom surface of the internal space. In addition, when the lower end (suction port) of the nozzle in the injection member is replaced between the main storage space and the preliminary storage space, the injection member includes the content stored in the main storage space and the content stored in the preliminary storage space It is possible to use one that can be injected properly.

  The bottle container according to the present invention uses an injection member equipped with a nozzle that can appropriately adjust the insertion position, etc., because the pump and gun spray suction nozzles can be interchanged between the accommodation spaces to properly use the contents. It is desirable to do. The length of the suction nozzle is preferably a length in contact with the bottom surface in order to use up the contents without waste. In addition, it is desirable to provide at least one suction port such as a notch so that suction can be performed even if the suction port contacts the bottom surface.

  The bottle container according to the present invention may further be provided with a content collecting portion in order to easily collect the content around the suction port of the injection member. For example, the content collecting portion is formed in a tapered shape in which the bottom surface of the bottle body, particularly the main storage space or the preliminary storage space is narrowed toward the bottom surface, so that the content flows into the periphery of the injection member. Can be.

  The bottle container according to the present invention configured as described above uses the contents stored in the main storage space in normal use, and when the contents disappear from the main storage space, By using the stored contents, it is possible to secure a time delay until the contents are completely exhausted, and to make the bottle container capable of alleviating or eliminating difficulties and disadvantages when replenishing the contents. it can.

  In particular, in the case of bottle containers that are used by being installed on various platforms or floors, it is unlikely that they are used by hand, and it is difficult to recognize the amount of contents by weight. The fact that the contents have been lost is known when the contents have not come out due to the operation of an injection member such as a pump, that is, when the contents in the bottle container are emptied. In this case, in the bottle container according to the present invention, even if the contents do not come out from the injection member, the contents are stored in the spare accommodating space. Thus, it can be used once or several times until the contents are refilled.

  Further, when the bottle container according to the present invention is formed as a partition portion by bending the bottom surface or wall surface of the bottle body, a process such as installing a wall-shaped partition member inside the bottle container becomes unnecessary. Therefore, although it is a bottle container provided with a reserve storage space, it can be easily prepared by means such as blow molding of synthetic resin, for example.

  Further, the bottle container according to the present invention concentrates the contents around the injection member, thereby reducing the dissipation and stagnation of the contents while being a bottle container provided with a plurality of accommodation spaces, and efficiently. It can be a bottle container that can be used.

  Hereinafter, the bottle container according to the present embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. 1A is a plan view of a bottle container according to a first embodiment, and FIG. The bottle container concerning this Embodiment was comprised as a pump container which inject | emits the content stored by the bottle main body 11 with the pump 12, and uses it. Although not shown, the pump 12 may be replaced with another injection member such as a gun spray. On the bottom surface of the bottle main body 11, a partitioning portion 14 is formed that projects in a vertical “V” shape in a reverse direction, and a preliminary storage space is provided below the storage space of the bottle main body 11 by the partitioning portion 14. 22 was formed. The height of the partition 14 is formed as 1/9 of the height of the bottle body 11, and the volume of the spare storage space 22 is taken into consideration while preventing the contents in the spare storage space 22 from moving unintentionally. Was formed as a height that would not be excessive.

  The main storage space 21 is a storage space other than the preliminary storage space 22 in the internal space of the bottle body 11. Here, in the region partitioned by the partitioning portion 14 below the bottle main body, which is the preliminary accommodating space 22 and which is the main accommodating space 21 is the suction port at the lower end of the suction nozzle 13 in the pump 12. It depends on whether it exists in That is, when the pump 12 is initially installed, a region where the suction port of the suction nozzle 13 exists becomes the main storage space 21, and a region where the suction port of the suction nozzle 13 does not exist becomes the preliminary storage space 22.

  The bottle container concerning this Embodiment can be filled with the content from the insertion port (not shown) which inserts the pump 12 in the bottle container 11 similarly to a general bottle container, and the bottle main body 11 is filled with the content. When the container is filled, a part of the contents is naturally stored in the preliminary accommodating space 22. In normal use, the contents in the main storage space 21 are sucked by the suction nozzle 13 and used, and when the contents in the main storage space 21 are exhausted, the contents stored in the preliminary storage space 22 are stored. used. The contents in the preliminary accommodating space 22 can be used by replacing the suction nozzle 13 with the preliminary accommodating space 22 as shown in FIG. However, depending on the assembly structure of the injection member, such as when the injection member is attached to the bottle body by attaching, it may be difficult to insert the suction nozzle into the intended position. Therefore, in such a case, as shown in FIG. 3, the container can be tilted and the contents in the preliminary accommodating space 22 can be moved to the main accommodating space 21 for use.

  The bottle container according to the embodiment configured as described above uses the contents stored in the main storage space 21 in normal times, and when the contents disappear from the main storage space 21, the preliminary storage space By using the contents stored in 22, a bottle container that can secure one or more times until the contents are completely exhausted and alleviate or eliminate difficulties and inconveniences related to replenishment of contents. It can be. Further, since the bottle container according to the present embodiment forms the partition portion 14 by bending the bottom surface of the bottle body, a process such as installing a wall-shaped partition member inside the container is unnecessary, Although it is a bottle container provided with a spare storage space, it can be manufactured by a simple technique such as blow molding.

  FIG. 4: is (A) top view (B) principal part BB sectional drawing which shows the bottle container concerning 2nd Embodiment. In addition to the configuration of the first example, the bottle container according to the present embodiment is formed in a shape in which the bottom surface side of the bottle body 11 is further narrowed toward the bottom surface, and the content collecting portion 31 is provided. Since the contents flowing into the contents collecting section 31 flow down on the inclined slope by being narrowed and gather around the suction nozzle 13, even in a bottle container provided with a plurality of storage spaces, Dissipation and stagnation can be reduced, and the use efficiency of the contents can be increased. Also in the present embodiment, the contents in the preliminary accommodating space 22 can be used by replacing the suction nozzle 13 or moving the contents by tilting the container, as in the first embodiment.

  FIG. 5: is the (A) front view (B) side view (C) principal part CC sectional drawing which shows the bottle container concerning 3rd Embodiment. In the bottle container according to the present embodiment, the preliminary accommodating space 22 is formed by forming the partition portion 14 formed by bending the bottom surface of the bottle body 11 in a reverse “V” shape in a cross shape in a plan view. Four places were formed. Thereby, the whole volume of the one preliminary | backup storage space 22 can be expanded, and the frequency | count of use after the content in the main storage space is lost can be increased.

  FIG. 6: is (A) principal part longitudinal cross-sectional view which shows the bottle container concerning 4th Embodiment, (B) The principal part longitudinal cross-sectional view which shows a use condition. In the bottle container according to this embodiment, a part of the side surface of the bottle main body bulges outward to form a liquid reservoir 31, and the liquid reservoir 31 is used as a preliminary accommodating space. The preliminary storage space (liquid reservoir 31) having such a shape is provided with an area portion that hangs downward so as to be open at least on the side surface of the bottle body and store liquid contents. Becomes a preliminary storage space (liquid reservoir).

And when the contents filled in the interior space of the bottle container disappear, as shown in FIG. 6 (B), the bottle container is tilted to the side opposite to the side where the liquid reservoir is formed, The contents in the liquid reservoir (preliminary contents) are moved into the main storage space. Thereby, it can be used once or several times by the amount stored in the liquid reservoir.
In relation to the fourth embodiment, the side wall of the bottle body protrudes toward the inner space and is bent, and a gap between the bent portion and the side wall can be used as a preliminary accommodating space.

  FIG. 7 is a partially transparent perspective view showing a bottle container according to a fifth embodiment, wherein (A) an exploded main part longitudinal sectional view, (B) a waist part sectional view, and (C) a small container are shown. The bottle container according to this embodiment shows an example in which a small container is disposed in an internal space, and the space in the small container is used as a spare storage space.

  That is, as shown in FIG. 7A, the small container 41 formed in a bottomed cylindrical shape is held by the suction nozzle 13 in the pump 12 and is inserted into the internal space of the bottle body 11. For this reason, the small container 41 needs to be formed in a size that can penetrate the opening of the bottle body 11 or be formed of a soft material that is flexible and can be arbitrarily deformed. As a result, by inserting the suction nozzle 13 in the pump 12 into the bottle container main body 11, the small container 41 exists in the internal space of the bottle container main body 11 as shown in FIG. The inside of the small container 41 can be used as the preliminary accommodating space 42. In this embodiment, the small container 41 is provided with a through-hole 43 through which the suction nozzle 13 is pierced in order to be attached to the suction nozzle 13 in the pump 12. Therefore, the suction nozzle 13 is attached by fitting the suction nozzle 13 into the through hole 43.

The small container 41 is not limited to the suction nozzle 13 and can be installed at any place in the internal space of the bottle body. However, it is desirable that the small container is opened upward. Moreover, the same effect as the bottle container concerning this embodiment is acquired by installing the said small container with respect to the bottle container provided with the pump 12 which has the suction nozzle 13 especially the bottle container marketed. Can do.
In the bottle container according to this embodiment, when the contents in the main storage space are used up, the contents stored in the small container 41 are tilted or turned upside down. The (preliminary contents) can be moved to the main storage space and can be used once or multiple times.

  In addition, the bottle container concerning this invention is not limited to said embodiment at all, and can be suitably changed unless it deviates from the meaning of this invention.
