Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は液体塗布容器に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、洗剤等のための液体塗布容器として、実開平1-126954号公報に記載の如く、スクイズ性のある容器本体に塗布ノズルを設け、容器本体の内容液を塗布ノズルの注出口から注出し、注出した液体を塗布ノズルの注出口回りの塗布作業面により、Yシャツの襟等の被塗布部に塗布可能としている。
【0003】
このとき、従来技術では、塗布ノズルを、容器本体に固定したノズル本体と、ノズル本体の先端部回りに着脱される塗布ヘッドとにより構成している。そして、被塗布部の塗布対象域が広い面積に渡る場合には、ノズル本体の先端部に塗布ヘッドを嵌着し、ノズル本体を経て塗布ヘッドの注出口から注出した液体を塗布ヘッドの注出口回りの大きな塗布作業面により被塗布部の広い塗布対象域に塗布可能としている。他方、被塗布部の塗布対象域が狭小の場合には、ノズル本体の先端部から塗布ヘッドを取外し、ノズル本体の先端部の注出口から注出した液体をノズル本体の注出口回りの端面の小さな塗布作業面により被塗布部の狭小な塗布対象域に塗布可能としている。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
然しながら、従来技術では、塗布ノズルを構成するノズル本体の先端部に設けられる注出口の口径と、塗布ヘッドの注出口の口径が、ともにノズル本体の導液路(容器本体の内容液を注出口に導く通路)の内径と同等にしている。
【0005】
このため、ノズル本体及び塗布ヘッドの口径、並びにノズル本体の導液路の内径を大き目に設定すると、容器本体を逆さにして塗布ノズルを被塗布部に近付ける過程で、容器本体の内容液が大き目の導液路を必要以上に多量に流下し、これがひいては注出口からの不測の洩出となって被塗布部の周辺を汚損する虞れがある。
【0006】
また、ノズル本体及び塗布ヘッドの口径、並びにノズル本体の導液路の内径を小さ目に設定すると、容器本体を逆さにして塗布ノズルを被塗布部に近付ける過程での内容液の不測の洩出は回避できるものの、塗布ノズルを構成するノズル本体もしくは塗布ヘッドの注出口回りの塗布作業面を用いて液体を被塗布部に塗布する際には、たとえスクイズ性の容器本体を押圧変形しても液体の注出量がそれらの注出口の小さ目の口径に規制されて小となり、液体の塗布作業速度を高速化できない。
【0007】
本発明の課題は、塗布ノズルをもつ液体塗布容器において、容器本体を逆さにして塗布ノズルを被塗布部に近付ける過程では内容液の不測の洩出を防ぎ、塗布ノズルの注出口回りの塗布作業面による塗布過程では塗布作業速度の高速化を図ることにある。
【0008】
【課題を解決するための手段】
請求項1に記載の本発明は、容器本体に塗布ノズルを設け、容器本体の内容液を塗布ノズルの注出口から注出し、被塗布部に塗布可能とする液体塗布容器であって、前記塗布ノズルが、容器本体側に固定されるノズル本体と、ノズル本体の先端部に嵌着され、ノズル本体の注出口に連なる注出口を開口するとともに、該注出口回りに塗布作業面を形成してなる塗布ヘッドとを備え、前記ノズル本体における容器本体側の導液路の内径を該ノズル本体の注出口の口径よりも小さく、前記塗布ヘッドにおける注出口の口径を前記ノズル本体の注出口の口径よりも大きく設定し、前記塗布ヘッドの塗布作業面回りの外周部であって、ノズル本体との間に液ダレ保留溝を備えてなるようにしたものである。
【0009】
請求項2に記載の本発明は、請求項1に記載の本発明において更に、前記塗布ノズルが、塗布ヘッドをノズル本体の先端部を回転軸として回転自在としてなるようにしたものである。
【0010】
請求項3に記載の発明は、請求項1又は2に記載の本発明において更に、前記塗布ヘッドが、塗布作業面の背面側にリブを備えてなるようにしたものである。
【0011】
請求項4に記載の本発明は、請求項1〜3のいずれかに記載の本発明において更に、前記容器本体が押圧変形性を有し、前記塗布ノズル本体の外周部に、2重をなす液ダレ保留筒とキャップ受筒とを備え、前記塗布ノズルは、塗布ヘッドをノズル本体の先端面と略面一とし、塗布ヘッドの注出口をノズル本体の注出口に連続化せしめてなるようにしたものである。
【0012】
【作用】
(1)液体塗布容器の塗布ノズルが容器本体側の導液路の内径を注出口の口径よりも小さく、注出口の口径を導液路の内径よりも大きく設定した。従って、(a)容器本体を逆さにして塗布ノズルを被塗布部に近付ける過程では、容器本体の内容液がノズル本体の小内径の導液路の流路抵抗により該導液路を適度に流下し、ノズル本体と塗布ヘッドの注出口からの不測の洩出による周辺汚損を招かない。また、(b)塗布ヘッドの注出口回りの塗布作業面を用いて液体を被塗布部に塗布する際には、内容液を大口径の注出口から多量に注出し、塗布作業速度を高速化できる。
【0013】
(2)液体塗布容器の使用後、容器本体を正立させると、塗布ヘッドの塗布作業面回りから液ダレを生ずることがある。この液ダレは、ノズル本体の外回りを伝わって液ダレ保留溝に一時保留される。そして、次回の使用時に、容器本体を逆さにすると、液ダレ保留溝に保留されていた液体が、ノズル本体の外回りを前述と逆方向に伝わって塗布ヘッドの塗布作業面に戻され、被塗布部に塗布される。これにより、液ダレによる容器回りの汚損を防止できる。
【0014】
(3)塗布ノズルがノズル本体と塗布ヘッドとからなるようにした。従って、塗布ヘッドに注出口と塗布作業面とを形成できる。即ち、容器本体の先端部にだけ注出口を設けるものに比して、ノズル本体の先端部に設けられる塗布ヘッドの注出口をより大口径化し、前述(1)の塗布作業速度のより高速化を図ることができる。また、塗布ヘッドの注出口回りの塗布作業面をより拡張し、被塗布部の広い面積を迅速に塗布できる。
【0015】
(4)塗布ノズルの塗布ヘッドをノズル本体の先端部を回転軸として回転自在としたから、塗布ヘッドの塗布作業面を被塗布部の繊維面等の表面に対して押付けて抵抗なくローリングさせつつ、スムースに塗布できる。
【0016】

【0017】
(液体塗布容器10)(図1、図2)
液体塗布容器10は、図1に示す如く、スクイズ性(押圧変形性)のある容器本体11の開口部11Aに塗布ノズル20を設け、塗布ノズル20をカバーキャップ12により被覆可能としている。尚、容器10は、容器本体11の開口部11Aをもつ首部11Bを鉛直軸に対し前傾させ、これによって、容器本体11を正立状態から逆さにして塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に近付ける際の、使用者の手首の回転角を小とし、操作性を向上可能とすることとしている。
【0018】
塗布ノズル20は、図2に示す如く、容器本体11の開口部11Aに設けたおねじ部に螺着されるめねじ部を備えた取付部21と、取付部21の天面部21Aの通液路21Bに連なるロング状ノズル本体22とからなる。
【0019】
ノズル本体22は、先端細径部22Aの先端面に注出口22Bを開口し、この先端面を塗布作業面22Cとし、取付部21の通液路21Bを注出口22Bに連通する導液路22Dを備える。
【0020】
塗布ノズル20は、ノズル本体22の導液路22Dの内径をd1 、注出口22Bの口径をd2 とするとき、d1 <d2 としている。
【0021】
塗布ノズル20は、取付部21の天面部21Aの上で、ノズル本体22回りにて2重に同心状をなす内外の2位置に液ダレ保留筒24とキャップ受筒25とを備える。
【0022】
尚、液体塗布容器10において、塗布ノズル20に被着されるカバーキャップ12は、その頂部内面に封止ピン12Aを備えている。カバーキャップ12を塗布ノズル20に封着した状態で、封止ピン12Aはノズル本体22の注出口22Bに封着する。
【0023】
従って、液体塗布容器10は以下の如く用いられる。
(1) 容器本体11に固定してある塗布ノズル20のキャップ受筒25からカバーキャップ12を外す。
【0024】
(2) 容器本体11を逆さにして塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に近付ける。
【0025】
(3) 塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に押付けた状態で、容器本体11をスクイズ変形して内容液を押出し、塗布ノズル20により被塗布部に塗布する。
【0026】
(4) 容器本体11を正立状態に戻し、塗布ノズル20のキャップ受筒25にカバーキャップ12を被着し、液体塗布容器10の使用を終る。
【0027】
本実施形態によれば以下の作用がある。
液体塗布容器10の塗布ノズル20が容器本体11側の導液路22Dの内径d1 を注出口22Bの口径d2 よりも小さく、注出口22Bの口径d2 を上記導液路22Dの内径d1 よりも大きく設定した。従って、(a) 容器本体11を逆さにして塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に近付ける過程では、容器本体11の内容液が小内径の導液路22Dの流路抵抗により該導液路22Dを適度に流下し、注出口22Bからの不測の洩出による周辺汚損を招かない。また、(b) 塗布ノズル20の注出口22B回りの塗布作業面22Cを用いて液体を被塗布部に塗布する際には、スクイズ性の容器本体11を押圧変形する如くにより内容液を大口径の注出口22Bから多量に注出し、塗布作業速度を高速化できる。
【0028】
(液体塗布容器10A)(図3〜図5)
液体塗布容器10Aは、上記実施形態と同様に、スクイズ性(押圧変形性)のある容器本体11の開口部11Aに塗布ノズル20を設け、塗布ノズル20をカバーキャップ12により被覆可能としている(図3)。
【0029】
塗布ノズル20は、図4に示す如く、容器本体11の開口部11Aに設けたおねじ部に螺着されるめねじ部を備えた取付部21と、取付部21の天面部21Aの通液路21Bに連なるロング状ノズル本体22と、ノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りに嵌着されるリング状塗布ヘッド23とからなる。
【0030】
ノズル本体22は、先端細径部22Aの先端面に注出口22Bを開口し、この先端面を小面積の塗布作業面22Cとし、取付部21の通液路21Bを注出口22Bに連通する導液路22Dを備える。塗布ヘッド23は、ノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りで、ノズル本体22の注出口22Bに連なる注出口23Bを開口し、この注出口23B回りに大面積の塗布作業面23Cを形成している。また、塗布ヘッド23は、塗布作業面23Cの背面側にリブ23Dを備えている。
【0031】
塗布ノズル20は、塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の先端面と略面一とし、塗布ヘッド23の注出口23Bをノズル本体22の注出口22Bに連続化せしめる。
【0032】
塗布ノズル20は、ノズル本体22の導液路22Dの内径をd1 、注出口22Bの口径をd2 、塗布ヘッド23の注出口23Bの口径をd3 とするとき、d1 <d2 <d3 としている。即ち、塗布ノズル20は、塗布ヘッド23の注出口23Bから内容液を注出せしめるものとなり、そのときの注出口径d3 を導液路22Dの内径d1 より相当に大きくしている。
【0033】
塗布ノズル20は、取付部21の天面部21Aの上で、ノズル本体22回りにて2重に同心状をなす内外の2位置に液ダレ保留筒24とキャップ受筒25とを備える。
【0034】
液ダレ保留筒24は、取付部21の天面部21Aの上でノズル本体22との間に、塗布ノズル20の塗布ヘッド23が形成する塗布作業面23C回りの外周部に連なる液ダレ保留溝24Aを形成する。塗布ノズル20の塗布ヘッド23から滴下しようとする液ダレは、塗布ヘッド23の背面側に回ってリブ23Dを橋絡部としてノズル本体22の外面に伝わり、ひいては液ダレ保留溝24Aに一時保留せしめられる(図5)。
【0035】
塗布ノズル20は、ノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りに嵌着した塗布ヘッド23を該先端細径部22A回りで回転自在としている。従って、塗布ヘッド23により被塗布部の広い塗布対象域を塗布するとき、塗布ヘッド23は被塗布部に押付けられて抵抗なくローリングしつつ、スムースな塗布を行なうことができる。
【0036】
尚、液体塗布容器10Aにおいて、塗布ノズル20に被着されるカバーキャップ12は、その頂部内面に封止ピン12Aを備えている。カバーキャップ12を塗布ノズル20に封着した状態で、封止ピン12Aはノズル本体22の注出口22Bに封着する。
【0037】
従って、液体塗布容器10Aは以下の如く用いられる。
(1) 容器本体11に固定してある塗布ノズル20のキャップ受筒25からカバーキャップ12を外す。
【0038】
(2) 容器本体11を逆さにして塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に近付ける。
【0039】
(3) 塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に押付けた状態で、容器本体11をスクイズ変形して内容液を押出し、塗布ノズル20により被塗布部に塗布する。
【0040】
(4) 容器本体11を正立状態に戻し、塗布ノズル20のキャップ受筒25にカバーキャップ12を被着し、液体塗布容器10Aの使用を終る。
【0041】
本実施形態によれば以下の作用がある。
▲1▼液体塗布容器10の塗布ノズル20が容器本体11側の導液路22Dの内径d1 を注出口22Bの口径d2 よりも小さく、注出口22B、23Bの口径d2 、d3 を上記導液路22Dの内径d1 よりも大きく設定した。従って、(a) 容器本体11を逆さにして塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に近付ける過程では、容器本体11の内容液が小内径の導液路22Dの流路抵抗により該導液路22Dを適度に流下し、注出口22B、23Bからの不測の洩出による周辺汚損を招かない。また、(b) 塗布ノズル20の注出口22B、23B回りの塗布作業面22C、23Cを用いて液体を被塗布部に塗布する際には、スクイズ性の容器本体11を押圧変形する如くにより内容液を大口径の注出口22B、23Bから多量に注出し、塗布作業速度を高速化できる。
【0042】
▲2▼液体塗布容器10の使用後、容器本体11を正立させると、塗布ノズル20の塗布ヘッド23が形成する塗布作業面23C回りから液ダレを生ずることがある。この液ダレは、塗布ノズル20の外回りを伝わって液ダレ保留溝24Aに一時保留される。そして、次回の使用時に、容器本体11を逆さにすると、液ダレ保留溝24Aに保留されていた液体が、塗布ノズル20の外回りを前述と逆方向に伝わって塗布ノズル20の塗布ヘッド23が形成する塗布作業面23Cに戻され、被塗布部に塗布される。これにより、液ダレによる容器10回りの汚損を防止できる。
【0043】
▲3▼塗布ノズル20がノズル本体22と塗布ヘッド23とからなるようにした。従って、塗布ヘッド23に注出口23Bと塗布作業面23Cとを形成できる。即ち、容器本体11の先端細径部22Aにだけ注出口22Bを設けるものに比して、ノズル本体22の先端細径部22Aに設けられる塗布ヘッド23の注出口23Bをより大口径化し、前述▲1▼の塗布作業速度のより高速化を図ることができる。また、塗布ヘッド23の注出口23B回りの塗布作業面23Cをより拡張し、被塗布部の広い面積を迅速に塗布できる。
【0044】
▲4▼塗布ノズル20の塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りで回転自在としたから、塗布ヘッド23の塗布作業面23Cを被塗布部の繊維面等の表面に対して押付けて抵抗なくローリングさせつつ、スムースに塗布できる。
【0045】
(液体塗布容器10B)(図6〜図9)
液体塗布容器10Bが前述の液体塗布容器10Aと実質的に異なる点は、図6〜図9に示す如く、塗布ノズル20が塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の軸方向に上下動できるようにしたことのみにある。
【0046】
即ち、塗布ノズル20は、図8に示す如く、塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りで該ノズル本体22の軸方向に上下動できる。塗布ヘッド23は、上動位置で、塗布ヘッド23の嵌合係止部23Aをノズル本体22の先端細径部22Aの外周の上係止部31に係止せしめられ、該塗布ヘッド23を広域塗布作業モード(図8(A))に切換設定される。他方、塗布ヘッド23は、下動位置で、塗布ヘッド23の嵌合係止部23Aをノズル本体22の先端細径部22Aの外周の下係止部32に係止せしめられ、該ノズル本体23を狭小域塗布作業モード(図8(B))に切換設定される。
【0047】
ノズル本体22は、先端細径部22Aの先端面に注出口22Bを開口し、この先端面を小面積の塗布作業面22Cとし、取付部21の通液路21Bを注出口22Bに連通する導液路22Dを備える。塗布ヘッド23は、ノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りで広域塗布作業モードに設定された状態で、ノズル本体22の注出口22Bに連なる注出口23Bを開口し、この注出口23B回りに大面積の塗布作業面23Cを形成している。また、塗布ヘッド23は、塗布作業面23Cの背面側にリブ23Dを備えている。
【0048】
塗布ノズル20は、塗布ヘッド23を広域塗布作業モードに設定したとき、塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の先端面と略面一とし、塗布ヘッド23の注出口23Bをノズル本体22の注出口22Bに連続化せしめる。他方、塗布ノズル20は、塗布ヘッド23を狭小域塗布作業モードに設定したとき、塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の基部寄りに待機せしめるものとなる。
【0049】
塗布ノズル20は、ノズル本体22の導液路22Dの内径をd1 、注出口22Bの口径をd2 、塗布ヘッド23の注出口23Bの口径をd3 とするとき、d1 <d2 <d3 としている。即ち、塗布ノズル20は、塗布ヘッド23を広域塗布作業モードに設定したとき、塗布ヘッド23の注出口23Bから内容液を注出せしめるものとなり、そのときの注出口径d3 を導液路22Dの内径d1 より相当に大きくしている。また、塗布ノズル20は、塗布ヘッド23を狭小域塗布作業モードに設定したとき、塗布ヘッド23がノズル本体22の基部寄りに待機せしめられるから、ノズル本体22は注出口22Bから内容液を注出せしめるもとなるが、このときの注出口径d2 も導液路22Dの内径d1 より大きくなる。
【0050】
塗布ノズル20は、取付部21の天面部21Aの上で、ノズル本体22回りにて2重に同心状をなす内外の2位置に液ダレ保留筒24とキャップ受筒25とを備える。
【0051】
液ダレ保留筒24は、取付部21の天面部21Aの上でノズル本体22との間に、塗布ノズル20の塗布ヘッド23が形成する塗布作業面23C回りの外周部に連なる液ダレ保留溝24Aを形成する。塗布ノズル20の塗布ヘッド23から滴下しようとする液ダレは、塗布ヘッド23の背面側に回ってリブ23Dを橋絡部としてノズル本体22の外面に伝わり、ひいては液ダレ保留溝24Aに一時保留せしめられる(図9)。
【0052】
塗布ノズル20は、ノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りに嵌着した塗布ヘッド23を該先端細径部22A回りで回転自在としている。従って、広域塗布作業モードに設定された塗布ヘッド23により被塗布部の広い塗布対象域を塗布するとき、塗布ヘッド23は被塗布部に押付けられて抵抗なくローリングしつつ、スムースな塗布を行なうことができる。
【0053】
尚、液体塗布容器10Bにおいて、塗布ノズル20に被着されるカバーキャップ12は、その頂部内面に封止ピン12Aを備えている。カバーキャップ12を塗布ノズル20に封着した状態で、封止ピン12Aはノズル本体22の注出口22Bに封着する。
【0054】
従って、液体塗布容器10Bは以下の如く用いられる。
(1) 容器本体11に固定してある塗布ノズル20のキャップ受筒25からカバーキャップ12を外す。被塗布部の塗布対象域が広い場合には塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22回りの上動位置である広域塗布作業モードに設定し、被塗布部の塗布対象域が狭い場合には塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22回りの下動位置である狭小域塗布作業モードに設定する。
【0055】
(2) 容器本体11を逆さにして塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に近付ける。
【0056】
(3) 塗布ノズル20を被塗布部に押付けた状態で、容器本体11をスクイズ変形して内容液を押出し、塗布ノズル20により被塗布部に塗布する。広い塗布対象域に対しては広域塗布作業モードに設定された塗布ヘッド23の塗布作業面23Cにより塗布が行なわれ、狭い塗布対象域に対してはノズル本体22の塗布作業面22Cによる塗布が行なわれる。
【0057】
(4) 容器本体11を正立状態に戻し、塗布ノズル20のキャップ受筒25にカバーキャップ12を被着し、液体塗布容器10の使用を終る。
【0058】
液体塗布容器10Bは、塗布ノズル20が塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りで回転できる如くの、液体塗布容器10Aが既に備える他の構成を液体塗布容器10Aにおけると同様に備える。従って、液体塗布容器10Aによれば、液体塗布容器10Aにおける前述▲1▼〜▲4▼の作用に加え、下記の作用を有する。
【0059】
塗布ヘッド23をノズル本体22の先端細径部22A回りで上下動し、塗布ヘッド23を広域塗布作業モードと狭小域塗布作業モードとに切換設定できるようした。従って、被塗布部の塗布対象域が広い場合には塗布ヘッド23を広域塗布作業モードに設定し、塗布ヘッド23の大きな塗布作業面23Cにより広い面積を迅速に能率的に塗布できる。他方、塗布対象域が狭い場合には塗布ヘッド23を狭小域塗布作業モードに設定し、ノズル本体22の先端細径部22Aの端面の小さな塗布作業面22Cにより狭小な塗布対象域に狙いをつけて、塗布作業域外を無用な塗布液により汚損することなく、狭小な面積を迅速に能率的に塗布できる。
【0060】
以上、本発明の実施の形態を図面により詳述したが、本発明の具体的な構成はこの実施の形態に限られるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲の設計の変更等があっても本発明に含まれる。例えば、本発明にあっては、塗布ノズルが容器本体側の導液路の内径を注出口の口径よりも小さく、注出口の口径を導液路の内径よりも大きく設定するものであれば良く、塗布ノズルはノズル本体と塗布ヘッドとの組合わせからなるものであることを必須としない。
【0061】
【発明の効果】
以上のように本発明によれば、塗布ノズルをもつ液体塗布容器において、容器本体を逆さにして塗布ノズルを被塗布部に近付ける過程では内容液の不測の洩出を防ぎ、塗布ノズルの注出口回りの塗布作業面による塗布過程では塗布作業速度の高速化を図ることができる。

[Prior art]
Conventionally, as a liquid application container for detergent, etc., as described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 1-126954, an application nozzle is provided in a squeeze container body, and the liquid in the container body is poured out from the spout of the application nozzle. The dispensed liquid can be applied to a portion to be coated such as a collar of a Y shirt by a coating work surface around the spout of the coating nozzle.
[0003]
At this time, in the prior art, the coating nozzle is constituted by a nozzle body fixed to the container body and a coating head attached and detached around the tip of the nozzle body. When the application target area of the application portion covers a wide area, the application head is fitted to the tip of the nozzle body, and the liquid discharged from the application head through the nozzle body is poured into the application head. Application is possible in a wide application target area of the application part by a large application work surface around the outlet. On the other hand, when the area to be coated of the coated portion is narrow, the coating head is removed from the tip of the nozzle body, and the liquid dispensed from the spout at the tip of the nozzle body is removed from the end surface around the spout of the nozzle body. Application is possible in a small application target area of the application part by a small application work surface.

However, in the prior art, the diameter of the spout provided at the tip of the nozzle body constituting the coating nozzle and the diameter of the spout of the coating head are both determined by the liquid guide path of the nozzle body (the content liquid in the container body is spouted). The inner diameter of the passage leading to
[0005]
For this reason, if the nozzle body and the diameter of the coating head and the inner diameter of the liquid guiding path of the nozzle body are set large, the content liquid in the container body is large in the process of turning the container body upside down and bringing the coating nozzle close to the portion to be coated. There is a possibility that the liquid flow path will flow more than necessary, and this may lead to unexpected leakage from the spout and contaminate the periphery of the coated part.
[0006]
In addition, if the nozzle body and coating head caliber and the nozzle body liquid guide channel inner diameter are set to be small, unexpected leakage of the content liquid in the process of turning the container body upside down and bringing the coating nozzle closer to the coated part will occur. Although it can be avoided, when applying liquid to the application part using the application work surface around the spout of the application head or the application head, even if the squeeze container body is pressed and deformed, the liquid The amount of water discharged is restricted by the smaller diameter of the outlets, and the liquid application work speed cannot be increased.
