Description

  The present invention relates to a pump mechanism having a back suction function, such as an airless pump mechanism.

  In particular, immediately after cancellation of the liquid content discharge operation of the operation member, back suction is performed on the residual liquid content on the discharge port side by the valve action between the operation member and the discharge valve member and the action of the operation member return operation unit. The present invention relates to a pump mechanism that exhibits an action.

  The “liquid content” used in this specification is a concept including various contents such as cream, paste or sol as described later.

  The present invention relates to an airless pump mechanism of a type in which a bottom portion defining a liquid content accommodation space region of a container body moves upward in response to a pressure drop in the space region accompanying a liquid content discharge operation, and the liquid content Each of the fixed-bottom type normal pump mechanisms in which the air corresponding to the pressure drop in the housing space flows into the space is targeted. However, in the following description, the case of an airless pump mechanism is mainly assumed for mere explanation.

  An airless pump mechanism itself having a back suction function is disclosed in, for example, Patent Document 1 below.

In the case of this airless pump mechanism (back suction mechanism)
(11) A discharge valve 19 (corresponding to the bellows member or cylindrical seal member of the present invention) provided upstream of the press-down head 12 with discharge nozzle (corresponding to the spout of the present invention) and interlocking therewith. Is equivalent to the discharge valve member of the present invention,
(12) The discharge valve 19 is formed by fitting an outer part 19b that is fixed to the piston 14 and is not substantially deformed, and an inner part 19a that is elastically deformed and exhibits an opening / closing action between the outer part 19b. Yes,
(13) When the press-down head 12 with discharge nozzle is in the fully-pressed state (= bottom dead center state), the inner part 19a of the discharge valve 19 is pushed up by the projecting portion 17d of the liquid sealing part 17 fixed to the cylinder, that is, the inner The part 19a is forcibly deformed into an open state in a manner that resists elastic action,
(14) Subsequently, when the push-down head 12 with discharge nozzle is released and the discharge valve 19 is also linked upward, the initial inner part 19a is still pushed up by the projecting portion 17d, and the discharge valve action portion is Exhibits a back-suction action in the open state,
It is like that.

JP-A-10-59405

  In such a back suction mechanism, a discharge valve having a shape in which a deformable inner part and a non-deformable outer part are fitted is used, and the pressing head with a discharge nozzle returns to its stationary mode from its bottom dead center state. A protruding portion (liquid sealing part) for maintaining the discharge valve action portion in an open state at a stage is separately provided.

  Further, the discharge valve action portion is set in an internal space region (= upstream space region of the head) of the piston attached to the pressing head with the discharge nozzle.

  For this reason, the number of components of the back suction mechanism is increased, and it takes time to assemble the back suction mechanism, resulting in an increase in the cost of the entire mechanism.

  In addition, the set point of the discharge valve that exhibits the back suction action is a portion away from the nozzle tip portion that is the discharge port of the liquid content, and the liquid content remaining at the discharge port and the nozzle portion in the vicinity thereof There is a problem that it is difficult to efficiently draw in the storage space area (the space area between the discharge valve and the suction valve).

  Therefore, in the present invention, the discharge valve action part includes an opening part on the discharge port side of the operation member and a movable discharge valve member that is separate from the operation member (the valve action part is not elastically deformed). The opening state between the opening and the discharge valve member, which is essential for the back suction action at the initial stage of returning to the stationary mode after the discharge operation is released, is used for maintaining a special open state. It is made to continue, without requiring a member etc. at all.

  An object of the present invention is to constitute a back suction mechanism (pump mechanism) using a discharge valve action portion comprising the operation member opening portion and a discharge valve member, thereby simplifying the assembly procedure of the mechanism, An object is to reduce the cost of the entire mechanism.

  In addition, the discharge valve action portion is set on the discharge port side of the operation member, thereby ensuring the operation of drawing the liquid content remaining in the discharge port and the nearby passage portion into the storage space area. Aim.

The outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion) means that at least the discharge valve member is held at the bottom dead center position by the frictional force with the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion when the discharge valve member reaches the bottom dead center. The shape and properties of the embodiment are as follows.

  For example, an outer diameter of the lower cylindrical portion of the outer surface gentle projecting portion 4e is set to be large on the lower side, and the inner surface of the discharge valve member 3, 3 ′ is at or near the bottom dead center position.

The basic features of the back suction mechanism in the illustrated airless pump are:
(21) Valve action comprising spouts 1 and 2 as a discharge valve action part, and a discharge valve member 3 which is a member independent of the spout and exhibits a separating action with the spout when the spout is pushed down and released. Set the
(22) The initial stage of the process in which the discharge valve action part returns from the previously opened state to the closed state in the stationary mode after the push-down operation is released, that is, the spouts 1 and 2 are moved upward while the discharge valve action part is still open. As the volume of the storage space area B increases at the stage where it is present, it exerts a back suction action on the residual liquid content on the pump discharge port side (see FIGS. 4, 8, and 11).
That is.

Another basic feature of this back suction mechanism is
(31) A discharge valve action part, that is, a back suction mechanism is provided near the liquid content discharge port (see FIGS. 1 to 5 and 9 to 11) or the liquid content discharge port itself (see FIGS. 6 to 8). Formed,
That is.

The airless pump type product shown is
・ Using a lateral discharge type spout 1 and a bellows member 6 as a member for forming the storage space B (Part 1: FIGS. 1 to 5)
-Using an upper discharge type spout 2 and a bellows member 6 as a member for forming the storage space B (Part 2: FIGS. 6 to 8)
· Using a lateral discharge type spout 1 and a seal member 8 as a member for forming the storage space B (Part 3: FIGS. 9 to 11)
There are three types.

  All airless pump type products have the same operation mode, and hereinafter, an airless pump (FIGS. 1 to 5) using the spout 1 and the bellows member 6 will be mainly described.

In the static mode of airless pump products (see Fig. 1, Fig. 6 and Fig. 9),
(41) The spouts 1 and 2 are respectively urged upward by the elastic action of the bellows member 6 and the coil spring 9,
(42) Due to this urging force, the discharge valve action part, that is, the valve action part composed of the inwardly loose projecting parts 1d and 2b of the spouts 1 and 2 and the outward slow projecting part 3a of the discharge valve member 3 is brought into close contact with each other. Closed state,
(43) Similarly, the inner surface of the discharge valve member 3 is held in a state of being engaged with the outer surface of the suction valve member 4 and the outer surface of the suction valve member 4 is engaged.
(44) The locked tapered portions 1g and 2e of the spouts 1 and 2 are held in a state of being slightly separated from the locked tapered portions 5f and 7g of the cover bodies 5 and 7,
(45) The suction valve 4a is in close contact with the valve action portions 5b and 7b of the cover bodies 5 and 7,
(46) In the storage space area B, the suction valve 4a is temporarily opened (see FIG. 5) due to a decrease in internal pressure due to the release of the previous spout pressing operation (= liquid content discharge operation) (see FIG. 5). It is the closed space area after the liquid content of the accommodation space area A flows in from the part.

  When the upper surface portions of the spouts 1 and 2 in the stationary mode (annular upper surface portion 2g in the case of the spout 2) are pushed down, first, the spouts 1 and 2 are placed on the discharge valve members 3 and 3 ′. The drive action portion 1e and the upper vertical rib-like portion 2d are moved downward until they come into contact with the upper surface portion of the discharge valve member 3 and the upper end portion of the lower vertical rib-like portion 3e (discharge valve member 3 ′), respectively.

  In this contact state, the inwardly loose projecting portions 1d and 2b (spouts 1 and 2) of the discharge valve operating portion and the outward gentle projecting portion 3a (discharge valve members 3 and 3 ') are separated from each other. That is, the discharge valve action part is in an open state.

  After this contact, the discharge valve members 3 and 3 ′ are interlocked downward together with the spouts 1 and 2, and the capacity of the storage space B is reduced (see FIG. 2).

  As the volume decreases, the storage space area B is pressurized, and the liquid content stored in the space area is discharged from the open discharge valve action portion to the external space area. At this time, of course, the suction valve 4a remains closed.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, the intermediate path when the liquid content of the storage space area B is discharged to the external space area
The annular space between the inner cylindrical portions 1f and 2c of the spouts 1 and 2 and the bellows member 6 and the outer peripheral surfaces of the discharge valve member 3 and the suction valve member 4, the discharge valve member 3 and the suction valve member 4; Each internal space area and the longitudinal cutout 3b
In other words, there are two systems in parallel.

  The liquid contents in the case of the spout 1 in FIGS. 1 to 5 and 9 to 11 are discharged from the hole 1b to the external space region through the passage portion 1a.

  Moreover, the liquid content in the case of the spout 2 in FIGS. 6 to 8 is discharged directly from the opening 2a to the external space area.

  As an application mode of this airless pump with spout, for example, the annular upper surface portion 2g of the spout 2 is pushed down with cotton, paper, cloth or the like placed on the opening 2a, and the liquid content in the storage space area B is changed to cotton or the like. Application and penetration.

  3, 7 and 10 show a state in which the spouts 1 and 2 are pushed down to the bottom dead center, respectively.

In the bottom dead center state of these spouts 1 and 2,
(51) The above-mentioned discharge valve action part (the valve action part consisting of the inwardly loose projections 1d and 2b of the spouts 1 and 2 and the outward gentle protrusion 3a of the discharge valve member 3) is opened,
(52) The suction valve 4a is closed,
(53) The liquid content discharge operation is completed,
(54) The bellows member 6 and the coil spring 9 are each compressed in a form that resists their own elastic force,
(55) The upper end portion of the reverse skirt portion 3d of the discharge valve member 3 pushed down by the spouts 1 and 2 is frictionally engaged with the inner peripheral surfaces of the inner standing portions 5c and 7c of the cover bodies 5 and 7,
(56) Similarly, the inner surface loosely projecting portion 3c of the discharge valve member 3 is frictionally engaged with the outer peripheral surface of the upper cylindrical portion of the suction valve member 4,
(57) The liquid contents to be discharged remain in the passage portion 1a and the opening 1c of the spout 1 and the opening 2a of the spout 2 and the like.
It is in a state.

  When the user stops the pressing operation of the spouts 1 and 2, as shown in FIGS. 4, 8, and 11, only the spouts 1 and 2 have the bellows member 6 while the substantially discharge valve member 3 remains at the bottom dead center position. And return to the upper side by the elastic action of the coil spring 9.

  The returning operation of only the spouts 1 and 2 continues until the inward gentle protrusions 1d and 2b come into contact with the outward gentle protrusion 3a of the discharge valve member 3. After the contact, the spouts 1 and 2 and the discharge valve member 3 are interlocked upward.

  During the returning operation of only the spouts 1 and 2, the discharge valve action part between the spouts 1 and 2 and the discharge valve member 3 is separated, and the discharge valve member 3 is the frictional engagement of the above (55) and (56). It is substantially held at the position of the bottom dead center by the combined action.

  Thus, since the spouts 1 and 2 move upward while the discharge valve action portion is open, the pressure in the space area immediately upstream of the discharge valve action portion decreases.

  As a result, the liquid contents remaining in the passage portion 1a and the opening portion 1c of the spout 1 and the opening portion 2a of the spout 2 are stored in the storage space area as shown by the arrows in FIGS. Aspirated into B. That is, a back suction action occurs.

  This back suction action is caused by the inwardly loosely projecting portions 1d and 2b of the spouts 1 and 2 coming into contact with the outwardly gently projecting portion 3a of the discharge valve member 3, that is, the discharge valve acting portion shifts from the open state to the closed state. It ends by doing.

  Then, after the discharge valve action part shifts from the open state to the closed state, the spouts 1 and 2 and the discharge valve member 3 move up to return to the stationary mode state shown in FIGS.

  In the process of returning the spouts 1 and 2 and the discharge valve member 3 to the stationary mode, the volume of the storage space area B increases and the pressure of the storage space area decreases.

  As the pressure drops, the suction valve 4 a opens, and the liquid content in the storage space area A of the container body 10 flows into the storage space area B. At this time, the discharge valve action portion is of course closed. Then, when the pressure difference between the two space regions is almost eliminated, the suction valve 4a is closed and the mode is changed to the stationary mode. In addition, the liquid content which flowed into the storage space area B from the accommodation space area A is a discharge target content at the time of the next spout pressing operation.

  That is, when the liquid content in the internal space region B is discharged from the hole 1b or the opening 2a to the external space region by the liquid content discharge operation associated with the pressing operation of the spouts 1 and 2, the liquid corresponding to the discharge amount. The contents flow from the storage space area A of the container body into the storage space area B on the downstream side.

  As the liquid content flows into the storage space area B, the pressure in the accommodation space area A becomes smaller than the atmospheric pressure, so that the movable bottom member 11 moves upward in the figure by the action of the atmospheric pressure. The lower space in the container body defined by the bottom surface portion of the container body 10 and the lower surface portion of the movable bottom member 11 is always in communication with the external space through the hole 10a.
