Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a dispenser container for seasonings and the like.

[Prior Art] Traditionally, seasonings such as salt, pepper, and monosodium glutamate have been used in the diet to make prepared foods more delicious, and these seasonings are used in shaker containers. .

The following containers are known as this type of dispenser container.

(1) As shown in Fig. 1, a dispenser opening 5 having a dispenser hole 3 and an opening/closing lid 4 that closes the dispenser hole 3 is screwed into an opening 2 of a container body 1 that accommodates seasonings. , the lid 4 is opened and the seasoning is dispensed from the small hole.

(2) As seen in Utility Model Publication No. 33-17994 and Utility Model Publication No. 38-14846, the container body is provided with dispensing holes of different sizes side by side, and the hole of the desired size can be adjusted by rotating the top lid of the container. A device that allows the contents to be shaken out is known.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] In the case of (1) above, there is only one type of dispense hole, so if the user wants to dispense a large amount, he or she must repeat the dispensing operation many times. Moreover, when only a small amount is desired to be dispensed, the dispenser may dispense more than the desired amount, making it difficult to adjust the dispensed amount as desired, which is extremely inconvenient.

In addition, in case (2), the hole in the container top lid and the hole in the container body are on the same circumference, so it is necessary to match the hole in the top lid with the hole of the desired size. With such a configuration, it is necessary to visually check the size of the hole to determine whether a large hole or a small hole is open, which is a burden for people with impaired eyesight.

[Means for solving the problem] The present invention stores seasonings in such a way that it is possible to easily adjust the amount of seasonings dispensed according to each person's preference. A hemispherical cylindrical shaking outlet is provided at the opening of the container, consisting of an inner lid and a rotatable outer lid that fits on the outside of the inner lid. A hole, a groove-like small hole, and a non-perforated part are formed at different positions in the circumferential direction near the periphery, and a vertical notch is formed in the outer lid to open and close the small hole groups individually. The inner lid attached to the shaker container has multiple types of shaker hole groups in different positions, such as near the top and near the periphery, so that they can be clearly distinguished even with poor eyesight. To provide a dispensing container in which the selection of dispensing or dispensing in small amounts can be easily and reliably made.

[Operation] According to the present invention, when the outer cover formed with the vertical notch is rotated, the notch sequentially changes the rotational position and the vertical position to individually open each small hole group formed therein. Since it acts to open and close, the contents can be shaken out through small holes of different sizes from the top or circumference.

[Example] As described above, the present invention provides at least two types of dispensing hole groups on the periphery of the inner lid attached to the opening of the dispensing container main body for storing seasonings, and the respective positions are set on the circumferential surface. When dispensing is performed by placing the outer cover on top of the inner cover and dispensing the dispenser by shifting the dispenser in the direction and height direction, the dispenser is formed so that the required dispense hole is opened to dispense a satisfactory amount. The present invention will be explained below with reference to Examples.

Figures 2a and 2b are perspective views of a dispenser container according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 is a plan view of Figure 2a, and Figure 4.
The figure is a vertical sectional view of the shaker container according to the present invention. The shaker container according to the present invention includes a container main body 1 for storing seasonings, an inner lid 6 screwed into the opening 2 of the container body 1, and an inner lid 6 that is rotatably attached to the outside of the inner lid 6. The inner cover 6 has a plurality of types of dispense hole groups 8 and 9, and the outer cover 7 is provided with a vertical notch 12 for opening and closing the dispense holes. The outer cover 7 is rotatably integrated with the outer cover 7 by a circumferential groove 10 and a circumferential protrusion 11 provided at each lower end. In addition, as shown in FIG.
By rotating and positioning the opening/closing notch 12 of the outer cover 7 by the user, the second
If the upper small hole group 8 is located at the position of the opening/closing notch 12 as shown in Figure a, the seasoning can be dispensed from the small hole at the tip, and the groove-like hole at the peripheral edge position as shown in Figure 2 b. When the hole group 9 is located at the opening/closing notch 12 position, a relatively large amount of seasoning can be dispensed from the circumferential side groove-like small hole group 9. Moreover, if the opening/closing notch 12 is placed in a position where no group of drawing holes is provided, all the drawing holes are closed and a sealed state is created.

[Effects of the invention] As explained above, in the shaker container according to the invention, the lid is rotatably fitted to the outer lid and the inner lid, and the inner lid has an upper part, a lower part, and a circumferential arrangement. By changing the position, a group of drawing holes with different hole sizes are opened, and a hole portion of a predetermined size, that is, a small hole or a groove-shaped small hole that is larger than this, is released by an opening/closing notch provided in the outer cover. However, by closing the other holes, the position of the large and small holes can be adjusted not only in the circumferential direction, but also in the circumferential direction.
At the same time, it is possible to clearly distinguish and recognize the area near the top and the area near the periphery, so it is not only possible to accurately recognize the size of the dispense hole and dispense the desired amount of seasoning, but also to dispense the desired amount of seasoning. By arranging the groups of different sized drawing holes at the tip end portion or the circumferential side portion, it is possible to change the way the drawing operation is performed.

Therefore, according to the shaker container of the present invention, not only can the user enjoy the deliciousness by sprinkling an appropriate amount of seasoning on the prepared food according to his/her preference, but also the shaker operation can be varied, making it easier to use. It can make people's hearts happy.

If it is desired to further finely adjust the amount of seasoning dispensed, the purpose can be achieved by appropriately changing the type and arrangement of the dispensing hole group and the shape of the notch in the outer lid.
