JP5785060B2 - Mixing container - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to a mixed container in which a plurality of types of containers, mainly liquids, are separated and stored, and these containers can be mixed in a container and poured out as needed.

  Conventionally, what is disclosed by patent document 1 is known as such a mixing container.

  The mixing container disclosed in this document 1 has a bottomed cylindrical bottle in which a first container is accommodated, a cylindrical inner stopper fixed to the opening edge of the bottle, and the inner stopper. An outer plug having a cylindrical housing portion that is mounted so as to cover the inner plug in a state in which relative rotation is possible and in which the second container is accommodated, and a nozzle that can be opened and closed from the outside are provided. An outer cap that is attached to the outer plug so as to close the opening of the accommodating portion, and an inner cap and an outer plug (accommodating portion) that are disposed inside the both plugs so as to pass through the center of the inner plug. An intermediate cap screwed on the intermediate cap. The middle cap closes the nozzle opening of the nozzle from the inside of the container at its tip (upper end). Further, the middle cap is engaged with the outer plug so as to be able to rotate integrally (co-rotate) with the outer plug and to be relatively displaceable in the vertical direction.

  In such a conventional mixing container, when the contents are mixed and used, the outer plug is rotated in a specific direction with respect to the inner plug. When the outer plug is rotated in this way, the inner cap screwed on the inner plug is loosened together with the outer plug, and falls out of the inner plug into the bottle. As the inner cap is removed, the second container enters the bottle from the container and enters the first container, and the nozzle opening is opened inside the container. Therefore, after that, by opening the outer cap from the outside and tilting the entire mixing container, the mixture of the first container and the second container can be poured out from the spout.

  In this mixing container, when the middle cap is loosened by rotating the outer plug, the closed state of the spout from the inside of the container by the middle cap is released even before the contents are mixed. Therefore, by completely removing the inner cap from the inner plug and thereby allowing the user to recognize that the contents are mixed together, the contents are mistakenly dispensed alone before the mixed contents are generated. To prevent this.

  However, in the above-described conventional mixing container in which the middle cap is dropped into the bottle, depending on the user, there may be a feeling of strangeness or resistance in a state where the dropped middle cap (container part) is mixed in the mixed container. is there.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and can reliably prevent mis-pourage of contained items, and further mix the contained items without mixing components in the mixed contained items. It is an object to provide a mixing container that can be used.

  As a means for solving the above-mentioned problem, the mixing container according to the present invention is a mixing container that can contain two kinds of contained items in a state of being separated from each other, and can mix and pour out these contained items at the time of use. A container body that opens upward and has a shape capable of accommodating the contents; and is attached to an upper end of the container body, and receives a rotational operation in a certain direction from the outside. An operating body that is displaced downward relative to the container body, and the operating body is located outside the operated part that mainly receives the rotational operation, and inside the operated part, A storage part having a shape capable of storing the storage object, and having a lead-out port for leading out the storage object at the lower end part thereof, and being arranged so that the lower end part is located in the container body; Located above this housing part, A cap portion having an openable and closable spout for pouring the mixed contents at a position between the storage portion and the operated portion, and the container portion and the storage portion of the operating body include Before the operating body receives the rotating operation, the inner peripheral surface of the container body and the outer peripheral surface of the housing portion are in close contact with each other at a specific position in the vertical direction, and the outlet port of the housing portion is closed. While the opening of the container body is closed by the storage portion, after the operation body receives the rotation operation by a certain amount, the discharge port of the storage portion is shifted downward from the specific position and the discharge port is An opening is formed in the container body, and a gap leading to the spout is formed between the inner peripheral surface of the container body and the outer peripheral surface of the housing portion.

  In this mixing container, the contents are accommodated in the accommodating portions of the container body and the operation body, respectively. In this mixing container, until the container is used (until the operation body is subjected to a rotation operation), the opening of the container body is closed by the housing part of the operation body, and the outlet of the housing part of the operation body is the container Blocked by the body. Thereby, each stored item is stored in the mixing container in a state of being isolated from each other. In addition, since the spout for pouring out the mixed contents is located outside the accommodating portion, it is prevented that the contents are poured out even if the spout is opened unexpectedly. On the other hand, when using the contents, the operating body is rotated in a certain direction. When the operating body is rotated in this manner, the housing portion is displaced downward relative to the container body, and with this displacement, the position of the outlet port of the housing portion is shifted downward and opened in the container body. . As a result, the contents in the container are introduced into the container and mixed with the contents in the container. In addition, the inside of the container body and the spout are in communication with each other, so that the mixed contents in the container body can be poured out.

  In this mixing container, as the operating body receives the predetermined amount of rotation operation, the outlet port first opens into the container body, and after the opening, the inner peripheral surface of the container body and the housing It is preferable that the container body and the accommodating portion for the operation body are formed so that the gap is formed between the outer peripheral surface of the portion.

  According to this configuration, a time difference is provided from when the outlet port of the accommodating portion of the operating body is opened into the container body until the inside of the container body and the spout are brought into communication. Therefore, before the stored item can be poured out from the spout, the stored item on the operating body (accommodating portion) side can be reliably mixed with the stored item inside the container body. In other words, it is possible to reliably prevent the stored items from being poured out from the spout before the mixed items are generated.

  In this mixing container, the container body has a mouth-and-neck portion that opens upward and a main body portion that is positioned below the mouth-and-neck portion and has a larger outer diameter than the mouth-and-neck portion. An operating body is mounted, and the operating body has a gap formed between a lower end of the operated part and an upper end of the main body before the operating body receives the rotation operation, It is preferable that the gap is formed so that the gap disappears after the rotation operation is performed by the predetermined amount.

  According to this configuration, it is possible to quickly determine from the appearance of the container whether the operation body is before or after being subjected to the rotation operation, that is, before or after mixing the contents.

  In the mixing container, the operating body is locked so that the operating body cannot be rotated in the reverse direction with respect to the container body after the operating body is subjected to the rotation operation by the predetermined amount. A lock mechanism is preferably provided.

  According to this configuration, it is possible to prevent the user from turning the operating body in the reverse direction and returning the operating body to the original state after mixing the contents. That is, when the operating body is returned to the original state after mixing the contents, the appearance returns to the state before the contents are mixed, so that it may be handled as a container before mixing. However, according to the above configuration, once the contents are mixed, the operation body cannot be rotated in the reverse direction, so that the above-described inconvenience can be avoided.

  Further, in the mixing container, the accommodating portion of the operation body is a bottomed cylindrical shape, and is provided at the lower end portion of the peripheral wall portion with the outlets at a plurality of positions in the circumferential direction, and radially outward from the center. It is preferable to provide a conical inner bottom surface that slopes downward toward the front.

  According to this configuration, it is possible to smoothly lead out the contents accommodated in the accommodating portion of the operation body while widely diffusing the inside of the container body.

  In addition, as a specific configuration of the mixing container, the operation body includes the operation portion and the cap portion that are integrally formed of the same material, and the storage portion that is formed separately from the formed body. The container body comprises a bottomed cylindrical container body that opens upward and a cylindrical member that is fixed to the upper end of the container body, and the operating body is attached to the cylindrical member. It is also possible to adopt a configuration such as

  According to the mixing container of the present invention as described above, even if the spout is opened unexpectedly before mixing the contents, it is possible to prevent the contents from being poured out. In addition, the outlet is opened in the container by shifting the position of the outlet of the storage portion downward from the specific position in accordance with the rotation operation of the operating body, whereby the storage in the storage and the storage in the storage Therefore, it is possible to mix the contents without mixing the parts in the mixed contents.

In other words, as shown in FIG. 2, the operation member 50 has the support member 20 inserted inside the large-diameter portion 56 of the main body 51, and the protrusion 56 a of the large-diameter portion 56 is connected to the support member 20 (mounting). The portion 22) is interposed between the pair of protrusions 26 and is engaged with the protrusions 26 in the vertical direction to be locked to the container body 1. In this state, as shown in the drawing, the upper end portion of the container body 1, that is, the operating body of the support member 20 is provided inside the mounting portion 57 so that the screwing of the male screw 25 and the female screw 57a can be started. The support part 21 is inserted.

  The male screw 25 and the female screw 57a are arranged so that the operating body 2 is relatively downward relative to the container body 1 (supporting member 20) when the operating body 2 (operating member 50) receives a rotation operation in a certain direction. It is formed so as to be displaced. In this example, each operation body 2 is displaced downward with respect to the container body 1 when the operation body 2 receives a clockwise rotation operation with respect to the container body 1 when viewed from above the mixing container. Screws 25 and 57a are formed.

  An annular rib 60 protruding downward from the inner top surface is formed at the center of the ceiling portion 54 of the main body 51, and at the outer circumferential side of the rib 60 at a plurality of positions in the circumferential direction. A plurality of ribs 62 projecting downward from the inner top surface are formed. In this example, a total of six ribs 62 arranged in the circumferential direction at intervals of 60 ° are formed on the ceiling portion 54. The ribs 60 and 62 are for holding the housing member 40. That is, the upper end portion of the accommodating member 40 is press-fitted between the rib 60 and each rib 62, and the accommodating member 40 is sandwiched in the radial direction by the ribs 0 and 62, so that the accommodating member as shown in FIG. 40 is held (assembled) by the operation member 50.

Specifically, when the operating body 2 is displaced to the end position (see FIG. 8) where the operating body support portion 21 of the support member 20 abuts the back end portion of the mounting portion 57 of the operating member 50, the rib 59 is The protrusions 32 of the support member 20 are passed over in the circumferential direction and engaged with the protrusions 32, respectively, so that the rotation of the operating body 2 in the reverse direction is restricted by this engagement. That is, when the operating body 2 is rotated by a certain amount as described above, the operating body 2 is in a locked state in which neither forward rotation nor reverse rotation is possible. In the present embodiment, the rib 59, the protrusion 32, and the like correspond to the lock mechanism of the present invention.

  The sleeve-like rib 58 of the main body 51 has a shape that can be fitted inside the support member 20 (operation body support portion 21). As a result, when the operation body 2 (operation member 50) is displaced to a position where the operation body 2 is locked as described above, the small-diameter portion 55 of the main body 51 and the operation body support portion 21 of the support member 20 become continuous. The rib 58 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the support member 20 to seal between the small diameter portion 55 and the operating body support portion 21.

  As described above, the operation member 50 is locked to the container body 1 (support member 20), and before the operation body 2 is operated, as shown in FIG. A constant gap is formed between the lower end portion of the diameter portion 56 and the shoulder portion 13 of the container body 10 of the container body 1 (a gap according to the present invention, which is formed between the lower end of the operated portion and the upper end of the body portion. Corresponding to the gap). This gap is set so as to decrease as the operating body 2 (operating member 50) is displaced downward along with the rotation operation, and to substantially disappear when the operating body 2 is displaced to the end position. That is, in this embodiment, the operating body support portion 21 of the support member 20 of the container body 1 corresponds to the “mouth neck portion” of the present invention, and the housing portion 12 of the container body 10 corresponds to the “main body portion” of the present invention. Equivalent to.

  On the upper surface of the ceiling portion 54 of the main body 51, a nozzle 65 (corresponding to the “spout” of the present invention) is formed so as to protrude upward from the upper surface. The nozzle 65 is located at a position opposite to the position (the position of the hinge 53) where the opening / closing lid 52 is connected with the accommodating member 40 interposed therebetween, and is formed in the gap between the accommodating member 40 and the small diameter portion 55. It is formed at a position that communicates.

  The opening / closing lid 52 is connected to the top portion of the operation member 50, specifically, the boundary portion between the ceiling portion 54 and the small diameter portion 55 via the hinge 53. The opening / closing lid 52 includes a shaft-like plug portion 52a. As shown in FIG. 2, the closure portion 52a is inserted into the nozzle 65 to close the nozzle hole, and the ceiling portion is connected to the ceiling portion. It is possible to displace (rotate) over an open position where the nozzle hole is opened outside the nozzle hole 54.

  In this embodiment, the portion of the operation member 50 that is mainly above the small diameter portion 55 corresponds to the “cap portion” of the present invention, and the other portion corresponds to the “operated portion” of the present invention. .

  Next, the assembly procedure of this mixing container is demonstrated using FIG.4 and FIG.5.

  This mixing container can be easily assembled by the following procedures (1) to (3).

Specifically, while inserting the housing member 40 held by the support member 20 from the mouth-neck portion 11 of the container body 10 to the inside thereof, the mouth-neck portion 11 is inserted into the inside of the mounting portion 22 of the support member 20. Then, the support member 20 is strongly pushed into the container body 10 side. When the support member 20 is pushed in in this way, the projections 28 on the support member 20 (mounting portion 22) side get over the projections 14 on the container body 10 (mouth neck portion 11) side and engage with each other, whereby the container body 10, the support member 20 is locked. That is, the container body 1 in which the container body 10 and the support member 20 are combined is configured. At this time, the rib 15 on the container body 10 side is inserted between the ribs 27 adjacent to each other of the support member 20, whereby the relative rotation of the support member 20 with respect to the container body 10 is restricted.

  In this state where the support member 20 and the like are assembled to the container body 10, the sleeve-like rib 31 of the support member 20 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the container body 10, thereby Continue in a sealed state. In addition, as described above, as a result of the inside of the support member 20 being blocked by the storage member 40, the container body 1 is closed by the storage member 40.

(3) Assembly of the operation member 50 (FIG. 7)
The operation member 50 is assembled to the container body 1 (support member 20). Specifically, the operation member 50 is put on the support member 20 of the container body 1, and the upper end portion of the housing member 40 is press-fitted between the ribs 60 and 62 formed on the ceiling portion 54 of the operation member 50. Then, the operation member 50 is strongly pushed into the support member 20 side. When the operation member 50 is pushed in, the projections 56a on the operation member 50 (large diameter portion 56) side are fitted between the pair of projections 26 on the support member 20 (mounting portion 22) side, and are engaged with each other. Thus, the operation member 50 is locked to the support member 20. Further, the operation body support portion 21 of the support member 20 is inserted inside the mounting portion 57 of the operation member 50 so that the male screw 25 and the female screw 57a can be screwed together.

  By assembling the operation member 50 to the container body 1 (support member 20) in this way, the upper end of the storage member 40 is press-fitted between the ribs 60 and 62 of the ceiling portion 54, and the storage member 40 is operated. Thus, the operation body 2 is configured. In this state, the upper opening of the housing member 40 is blocked by the ceiling portion 54, and the rib 60 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the housing member 40, thereby sealing between the operation member 50 and the housing member 40. It will be in the state. Thus, the assembly of the mixing container is completed.

  Although not mentioned in the above description, the storage of the first liquid in the container body 1 and the storage of the second liquid in the storage member 40 are appropriate for the assembly process according to the properties of the liquid. Can be done in stages. For example, the storage of the first liquid in the container body 1 can be performed immediately before assembly of the support member 20 and the like to the container body 10. Further, the storage of the second liquid in the storage member 40 can be performed immediately before the operation member 50 is assembled to the support member 20 or the like.

  As described above, the first and second liquids stored in the mixing container have the opening of the container body 1 closed by the storage member 40, and the upper opening of the storage member 40 is operated. Since the outlets 42 are respectively closed by the supporting members 20 (cylindrical portions 30) by the members 50 (ceiling portions 54), they are accommodated in the mixing container in a state of being isolated from each other. And since the nozzle 65 is formed in the position outside the accommodating member 40 among the ceiling parts 54 of the operation member 50 as described above, even when the open / close lid 52 is unexpectedly operated to the open position, the first None of the second liquid is dispensed. That is, erroneous dispensing before liquid mixing is reliably prevented.

  Next, the use point of this mixing container (how to mix the first liquid and the second liquid and pour out the mixed liquid) will be described.

  First, the 1st liquid accommodated in the container body 1 (container main body 10) and the 2nd liquid accommodated in the operation body 2 (accommodating member 40) are mixed. This mixing is performed by holding the container body 10 of the container body 1 and the operation member 50 of the operation body 2 and rotating the operation body 2 relative to the container body 1. When the operation body 2 is rotated as described above, the operation body support portion 21 (male screw 25) of the support member 20 is screwed into the mounting portion 57 (internal thread 57a) of the operation member 50 along with the rotation. The operating body 2 is relatively displaced downward with respect to 1. Then, along with the downward displacement of the operating body 2, as shown in FIG. 8, the lower end portion of the housing member 40, that is, the position of the outlet port 42 is shifted downward from the cylindrical portion 30, and the outlet port 42 is opened inside the container body 1 (container body 10). By opening the outlet 42, the second liquid is mixed into the first liquid in the container body 1, and both liquids are mixed. In this case, as described above, as a result of the inner bottom portion of the containing member 40 being formed in a conical shape that slopes downward from the center toward the radially outer side, the second liquid remains in the containing member 40. Instead, they are led out equally from each outlet 42.

  Then, the operation body 2 (operation member 50) is rotated by a certain amount, whereby the tip of the container body 1 (the operation body support portion 21 of the support member 20) is screwed to the mounting portion 57 to the end position. Then, the rib 59 of the operation member 50 gets over the protrusion 32 of the support member 20 in the circumferential direction, and thereby the operation body 2 is locked in a non-rotatable state. In this locked state, as shown in the figure, the upper end of the operating body support portion 21 abuts on the back end portion of the mounting portion 57 and a sleeve-like rib 58 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the operating body support portion 21. Thus, the small diameter portion 55 of the operation member 50 and the operation body support portion 21 are in a continuous state. Further, as a result of the downward displacement of the housing member 40, the cylindrical portion 30 supports the housing member 40 from the radially outer side at the position of the groove portion 48. A gap is formed by the groove portion 48, and the upper and lower sides of the cylindrical portion 30 are in communication with each other through the gap (groove portion 48). That is, the nozzle 65 and the inside of the container body 10 are in communication. Therefore, the mixed liquid in the container body 1 (container body 10) can be poured out by tilting the entire mixing container after operating the open / close lid 52 to the open position.

  According to the mixing container as described above, even when the opening / closing lid 52 is unexpectedly opened before mixing the first liquid and the second liquid, it is possible to reliably prevent the liquid from being poured out.

  Moreover, this mixing container does not drop the parts of the container into the container body 1 as in the prior art, but displaces the accommodating member 40 downward as the operating body 2 rotates as described above. The outlet 42 is opened in the container body 1, whereby the second liquid is introduced into the container body 10 and mixed into the first liquid, so that the components of the container are mixed with the liquid mixture as in a conventional mixing container. There is no mixing. Therefore, there is no sense that the user feels uncomfortable or resists when the container parts are mixed in the liquid mixture.

  Further, according to this mixing container, as described above, the accommodating member 40 is formed with the outlet 42 on the outer periphery of the lower end and the groove 48 formed on the upper side thereof. First, the outlet 42 is opened to the inside of the container body 1 (container body 10), and then the nozzle 65 and the inside of the container body 10 are brought into communication with each other through the groove 48 (gap). That is, there is a time difference from when the outlet 42 of the housing member 40 opens into the container body 10 until the nozzle 65 communicates with the inside of the container body 10. Therefore, before the liquid can be dispensed from the nozzle 65, the second liquid in the housing member 40 can be reliably mixed with the first liquid in the container body 10. In other words, there is also an advantage that the first liquid and the second liquid can be reliably prevented from being poured out from the nozzle 65 before the mixed liquid is generated.

  In addition, according to this mixing container, since the total length (length in the vertical direction) of the mixing container changes due to the displacement of the operation body 2 accompanying the rotation operation, it is determined from the appearance whether the stored liquid is before or after mixing. be able to. However, according to the mixing container, before the liquid mixing, the large-diameter portion 56 of the operating body 2 and the shoulder portion 13 of the container body 10 of the container body 1 (the upper end portion of the housing portion 12) are mixed as described above. A gap is formed between them, and after mixing the liquid, the mixing container is configured so that this gap disappears, so it is more quickly determined from the appearance whether the liquid in the mixing container is before or after mixing. There is an advantage that can be. That is, when the entire mixing container is long in the vertical direction and the displacement amount of the operation body 2 is relatively small, it is visually determined from the change in the total length of the mixing container whether the liquid is before or after mixing. It can be difficult. However, according to the mixing container of the embodiment, since the determination can be easily performed based on the presence or absence of the gap, it is possible to quickly and accurately determine whether the liquid is before or after mixing from the appearance.

  Furthermore, according to the mixing container, once the operating body 2 is operated to mix the liquids, the operating body 2 is locked in a non-rotatable state as described above. Therefore, after the liquid is mixed, the operation body 2 is operated in the reverse direction, whereby the mixing container can be prevented from being erroneously handled as a container before use, that is, a container before mixing the liquid. There is also.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a mixing container according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described.

  9 to 11 schematically show a mixing container according to a second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 9 is a half longitudinal sectional side view, and FIG. 10 is a longitudinal sectional view showing a main part. 11 is a longitudinal sectional view in an exploded state, showing mixing containers, respectively. Since most of the configuration of the mixing container of the second embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, in the following description, parts common to the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals and described. Omitted or simplified, the differences from the first embodiment will be mainly described in detail.

  As shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, the mixing container of the second embodiment has the same configuration as that of the first embodiment in that it includes the container body 1 and the operation body 2, but the following In this respect, the configuration is different from that of the first embodiment.

  The container body 1 of 2nd Embodiment consists of a single molded article. The container body 1 has a structure substantially equivalent to that in which the container body 10 and the support member 20 of the first embodiment are integrated. That is, the container body 1 includes an opening and neck portion 11 that opens upward, a storage portion 12 that is positioned below the opening and neck portion and has a diameter larger than the opening and neck portion, and a shoulder that connects the opening and neck portion 11 and the storage portion 12. Part 13 and these are integrally molded of the same synthetic resin material. The accommodating portion 12 includes an upper small-diameter portion 12a, a large-diameter portion 12b located on the lower side and having a larger diameter than the small-diameter portion 12a, and a shoulder portion 12c that connects the small-diameter portion 12a and the large-diameter portion 12b. have. A male screw 25 for screwing the operation body 2 (operation member 50) is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the mouth-and-neck portion 11, and an operation body is formed on the upper end portion of the small-diameter portion 12a of the housing portion 12. A pair of projections 26 for locking 2 is formed. Further, a protrusion 32 for locking the operating body 2 to be non-rotatable is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the mouth / neck portion 11 and in the vicinity of the lower end thereof (see FIG. 12).

  The operating body 2 is the same as that of the first embodiment in that it includes the accommodating member 40 and the operating member 50. In the second embodiment, the operating body 2 is operated by a separate cap member 50a and operated member 50b. The member 50 is comprised and is different from the first embodiment in this respect.

  The cap member 50a (corresponding to the cap portion of the present invention) has a structure equivalent to that of the upper portion mainly from the small diameter portion 55 of the operation member 50 of the first embodiment. That is, the cap member 50 a connects the cap body 70 having the disk-shaped ceiling portion 54 and the cylindrical peripheral wall portion 72 that hangs straight from the periphery thereof, the opening / closing lid 52, and the cap body 70 and the opening / closing lid 52. Including a hinge 53, which are integrally molded of the same synthetic resin material. Ribs 60 and 62 and a nozzle 65 are formed on the ceiling portion 54.

  The cap body 70 includes a plurality of protrusions 72a on the inner peripheral surface of the lower end portion thereof, protruding inward from the inner peripheral surface and arranged intermittently in the circumferential direction. A sleeve-like rib 74 extending so as to protrude downward from the ceiling portion 54 is formed at a position inside the inner peripheral surface of the cap body 70 and outside the position of the nozzle 65. These protrusions 72a and ribs 74 are for assembling the cap body 70 to the operated member 50b.

  On the other hand, the operated member 50b (corresponding to the operated portion of the present invention) has substantially the same structure as that obtained by removing the upper portion from the small diameter portion 55 of the operating member 50 of the first embodiment. Yes. The operated member 50b includes a cylindrical mouth-and-neck portion 80 and a cylindrical portion 81 (to the large-diameter portion 56 of the first embodiment) connected to the lower side of the mouth-and-neck portion 80 via a shoulder that gradually increases in diameter. The mounting portion 57 that is located inside the cylindrical portion 81 and hangs straight from the position of the shoulder portion, and is located further inside the mounting portion 57 and continues to the mouth and neck portion 80. A sleeve-like rib 58 projecting downward from the lower end of the mouth-and-neck portion 80. And the protrusion part 56a and the rib 59 are provided in the internal peripheral surface of the cylindrical part 81. As shown in FIG.

  Note that a protrusion 80 a that protrudes outward from the outer peripheral surface and continues to the entire periphery is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the mouth and neck portion 80. The protrusion 80a is for locking the cap member 50a. Further, locking projections 80b projecting inward from the inner circumferential surface are formed at a plurality of positions in the circumferential direction on the inner circumferential surface of the mouth and neck portion 80. In this example, as shown in FIG. 13, a total of four locking projections 80b are formed at intervals of 90 °. These locking projections 80b are for assembling the accommodating member 40 to the operated member 50b. That is, as shown in FIG. 11, the housing member 40 of the second embodiment includes locking portions 90 that protrude outward from the outer peripheral surface at a plurality of positions in the vicinity of the upper end and in the circumferential direction. In this example, a total of four locking portions 90 are provided at 90 ° intervals corresponding to the locking protrusions 80b. The engaging portions 90 are formed with fitting portions 92 that open to one side in the circumferential direction of the housing member 40 and into which the engaging protrusions 80b can be fitted. Then, the housing member 40 is inserted into the mouth-and-neck portion 80 so that the locking portion 90 and the locking projection 80b are displaced from each other in the circumferential direction. In this state, the storage member 40 and the operated member 50b are relative to each other. , The locking protrusions 80b are inserted into the fitting recesses 92 of the locking portions 90, and the housing member 40 is locked to the operated member 50b.

  In addition, the projection part 46 and the groove part 48 like 1st Embodiment are not formed in the accommodating member 40 of 2nd Embodiment.

  Next, the assembly procedure of this mixing container will be described with reference to FIGS. 14 and 1.

  This mixing container can be easily assembled by the following procedures (1) to (3).

(1) Assembling of the accommodating member 40 to the operated member 50b (FIG. 14)
First, the accommodating member 40 is inserted into the inside of the operated member 50b from the lower side, that is, the mouth-and-neck portion 80, and the accommodating member 40 is locked to the operated member 50b. The details are as described above.

  In the state where the housing member 40 is assembled to the operated member 50b as described above, the housing member 40 is held at the center of the operated member 50b with the upper end of the housing member 40 slightly protruding outside the operated member 50b. Is done.

(2) Assembly of the operated member 50b to the container body 1 (FIG. 14)
The operated member 50b to which the housing member 40 is assembled in the procedure (1) is assembled to the container body 1. Specifically, the operated member 50b is strongly pushed into the container body 1 side while the accommodating member 40 held by the operated member 50b is inserted into the container body 1 from the mouth-neck portion 11 to the inside thereof. When the operation member 50 is pushed in this way, the projections 56a on the operated member 50b (cylindrical portion 81) side are fitted between the pair of projections 26 on the container body 1 (small diameter portion 12a) side, and are engaged with each other. Thus, the operated member 50 b is locked to the container body 1. Further, the mouth and neck portion 11 of the container body 1 is inserted inside the mounting portion 57 of the operation member 50 so that the male screw 25 of the mouth and neck portion 11 and the female screw 57 a of the mounting portion 57 can be screwed together. Further, the protrusions 44 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the housing member 40 are in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the mouth-and-neck portion 11, so that each outlet 42 of the housing member 40 is closed, and the container body 1 is closed by the housing member 40. That is, the container body 1 is closed by the housing member 40 (see the lower diagram of FIG. 15).

(3) Assembly of the cap member 50a to the operated member 50b (FIG. 15)
While the upper end of the housing member 40 is press-fitted between the ribs 60 and 62 formed on the ceiling portion 54, the cap member 50a is put on the operated member 50b and strongly pressed. When the cap member 50a is pushed in, the projection 72a on the cap member 50a (cap body 70) side gets over the projection 80a on the operated member 50b (mouth neck portion 80) side and engages with each other. 50a is locked to the operated member 50b. That is, the operation body 2 is formed by combining the cap member 50a, the operated member 50b, and the housing member 40.

  In this state where the cap member 50a is assembled to the operated member 50b, the sleeve-like rib 74 of the cap main body 70 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the operated member 50b (mouth neck portion 80), thereby the cap member 50a. And the operated member 50b are sealed. Further, the upper opening of the housing member 40 is closed by the ceiling portion 54, and the sleeve-like rib 60 is in close contact with the inner peripheral surface of the housing member 40, thereby sealing between the cap member 50 a and the housing member 40. The Thus, the assembly of the mixing container is completed.

  Although not mentioned in the above description, the storage of the first liquid in the container body 1 and the storage of the second liquid in the storage member 40 are appropriate for the assembly process according to the properties of the liquid. Can be done in stages. For example, the storage of the first liquid in the container body 1 can be performed immediately before assembly of the operated member 50b or the like to the container body 1. Further, the second liquid can be accommodated in the accommodating member 40 immediately before the cap member 50a is assembled to the operated member 50b.

  As for the first and second liquids contained in the mixing container of the second embodiment as described above, the container body 1 is closed by the containing member 40 as described above. The upper opening of the member 40 is closed by the cap member 50a (ceiling part 54), and the outlet 42 is closed by the container body 1 (inner peripheral surface of the mouth / neck part 11), so that they are isolated from each other. Housed in a mixing vessel. And as above-mentioned, also about this mixing container, since the nozzle 65 is formed in the position outside the accommodating member 40 among the cap members 50a (ceiling part 54), the open / close lid 52 is unexpectedly operated to the open position. Even in the case, the first and second liquids are not dispensed. That is, erroneous dispensing before liquid mixing is reliably prevented.

  Next, the use point of the mixing container according to the second embodiment (how to mix the first liquid and the second liquid and pour out the mixed liquid) will be described.

  The usage of this mixing container is substantially the same as that of the mixing container of the first embodiment. That is, the operation is performed by gripping the operation member 50 (mainly the operated member 50 b) of the container body 1 and the operation body 2 and rotating the operation body 2 relative to the container body 1. When the operating body 2 is rotated as described above, the mouth neck portion 11 (male screw 25) of the container body 1 is screwed into the mounting portion 57 (female screw 57a) of the operated member 50b along with the rotation. However, the operating body 2 is relatively displaced downward. As the operating body 2 is displaced downward, as shown in FIG. 16, the lower end portion of the housing member 40, that is, the position of the outlet port 42 is displaced below the mouth neck 11, and the outlet port 42. Is opened inside the container body 1. By opening the outlet 42, the second liquid in the housing member 40 is mixed into the first liquid in the container body 1, and both liquids are mixed.

  Then, when the operating body 2 (operated member 50b) is rotated by a certain amount, the rib 59 of the operated member 50b is engaged with the protrusion 32 of the mouth-and-neck portion 11 in the circumferential direction. The operation member 50b is locked in a non-rotatable state. In this locked state, as shown in the figure, the upper end of the container body 1 (mouth neck portion 11) abuts on the back end portion of the mounting portion 57 and sleeve-like ribs 58 are formed on the inner peripheral surface of the container body 1. In close contact with each other, the inside of the container body 1 and the operation member 50 are sealed, and the inside of the container body 1 and the nozzle 65 are connected to the inner peripheral surface of the housing member 40 and the mouth and neck portion 11. And communicate with each other through a gap formed between them. Therefore, after the first liquid and the second liquid are mixed, the mixed liquid can be poured out from the nozzle 65 by operating the open / close lid 52 to the open position and tilting the entire mixing container.

  Such a mixing container of the second embodiment can also enjoy the same effects as those of the first embodiment. That is, as described above, even when the opening / closing lid 52 is unexpectedly opened before mixing the first liquid and the second liquid, the liquid can be reliably prevented from being dispensed.

  Further, the outlet member 42 is opened in the container body 1 by displacing the accommodating member 40 in the downward direction in accordance with the rotation operation of the operation body 2, whereby the second liquid is introduced into the container body 10 and the first liquid is introduced. Since it is mixed in the liquid, the parts of the container are not mixed in the liquid mixture. Therefore, when the container parts are mixed in the liquid mixture, the user does not feel discomfort or resistance.

  As the operating body 2 is rotated, the outlet 42 of the housing member 40 is first opened inside the container body 1, and then the nozzle 65 communicates with the inside of the container body 1 through the groove 48 (gap). Therefore, there is an advantage that the first liquid and the second liquid can be reliably prevented from being poured out from the nozzle 65 before the mixed liquid is generated.

  In the mixing container according to the second embodiment, the operating body 2 (operation member 50) is locked to the container body 1 as described above. As shown, a certain gap is formed between the lower end portion of the cylindrical portion 81 of the operation member 50 and the shoulder portion 12c of the accommodating portion 12 of the container body 1 (the upper end of the large diameter portion 12b). This gap is set so that it decreases as the operating body 2 (operation member 50) is displaced downward along with the rotation operation, and substantially disappears when the operating body 2 is displaced to the end position. Therefore, also for this mixing container, as in the mixing container of the first embodiment, it is possible to quickly and accurately determine whether the contained liquid is before or after mixing from the appearance. In the present embodiment, the large-diameter portion 12b of the accommodating portion 12 in the container body 1 corresponds to the “main body portion” of the present invention.

  By the way, the mixing container concerning 1st, 2nd embodiment demonstrated above is illustration of preferable embodiment of the mixing container concerning this invention, Comprising: The concrete structure is changed in the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention. Is possible.

  For example, in the above embodiment, the female screw 57a on the operation body 2 side is screwed into the male screw 25 on the container body 1 side, and the operation body 2 is rotated relative to the container body 1, so that the container is accompanied with the rotation. The operation body 2 (housing member 40) is displaced relatively downward with respect to the body 1. For example, the cam is mounted on the container body 1 side (the outer peripheral surface of the operation body support portion 21 of the support member 20). While a protrusion (cam) protrudes, a cam groove is formed on the operating body 2 side (inner peripheral surface of the mounting portion 57), and a combination of these cam protrusion and cam groove causes the operation body 2 to rotate. The operation body 2 may be configured to be displaced downward with respect to the container body 1.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, with rotation operation of the operation body 2, the outlet 42 of the accommodating member 40 is first open | released inside the container body 1, and the nozzle 65 and the container body 1 are then interposed via the groove part 48 (gap). The container body 1 and the operation body 2 are formed so as to be in communication with each other. Of course, as the operation body 2 is rotated, the opening of the outlet 42 into the container body 1 and the nozzle The container body 1 and the operation body 2 may be formed so that the communication between 65 and the inside of the container body 1 is achieved substantially simultaneously.

  In addition, the specific sizes and shapes of the container body 1 and the housing member 40 can be changed as appropriate so that both liquids can be appropriately mixed according to the type, properties, and amount of the liquid to be stored.
