Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea]

0001

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a content extraction mechanism, and in particular, the content can be retrieved by pressing the operation part. The present invention relates to a content extraction mechanism for taking out objects.

0002

[Conventional technology]

For example, for bottle-type containers containing shampoo, etc., there is a content removal machine. A metering pump is installed as a structure. In a container equipped with this metering pump, Simply operate the push button on the head of the metering pump without tipping the container. This is convenient because a predetermined amount of contents can be removed from the container with just a single step.

0003 An example of a conventional container of this kind is shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. capacity as shown in each figure. The container 1 includes a container body 2 filled with contents 4 and a metering device for discharging the contents to the outside of the container. The pump 3 is composed of a pump 3 and a pump 3. Roughly speaking, the metering pump 3 consists of a movable part and a fixed part. It is composed of fixed parts. In addition, the metering pump 3 shown in FIG. 3 is FIG. 3 shows the state in which the button is pressed.

0004 The movable part is a part that moves integrally by pressing the push button 5 on the head. , push button 5, nozzle 6, pressure plunger 7, valve body 8, coil spring It is made up of 9 etc. On the other hand, the fixing part fastens the screw cap 10. This is the part that is fixed to the container body 2, and the screw cap 10, the series It is composed of a cylinder 11, a filling rod 12, a pipe 13, a ring 14, etc. Furthermore, 1 5 and 16 are valves that prevent the contents from flowing back inside the dispenser 3, and 18 is a pad. It's Kin.

[0005] Spaces A and B are formed between the movable part and the fixed part, and space parts A and B are formed in the metering pump 3. A fluid passage from the pipe 13 to the nozzle 6 is formed. Also, the pre-operation state The fluid passage is configured to be filled with a content 4. press button here When 5 is pressed, the pressurizing plunger 7 and the valve body 8 attached to it move downward. The volume of space A becomes smaller, and the contents in space A are pressurized and move relatively upward until empty. It passes through the space B and is discharged from the nozzle 6 to the outside of the container body 3.

[0006] Also, when the pressing operation is stopped, the movable part moves upward due to the coil spring 9. Since this space-time part A is in a reduced pressure state, the contents 4 enter the container body 2 through the pipe 13. The liquid then enters the space A and is filled into the metering pump 3. On the other hand, the content 4 is When the pressure inside the container body 2 is reduced by filling the inside of the pump 3, the container body 2 Air outside the cylinder 11 and the gap between the pressurized plunger 7 and the link 14 Since the contents 4 flow into the container body 2 through the air holes 17 formed in the The pump 3 was designed to be filled smoothly.

[0007]

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

However, in the conventional structure described above, the nozzle 6 has a shape that extends laterally. Therefore, when using the pushbutton 5, as shown in Fig. 5, operate the pushbutton 5 with one hand and It was configured to receive the contents 4 discharged from the nozzle 6 by hand. For this reason, The problem is that both hands are required when dispensing the contents, making it difficult to use. It was.

[0008] This invention was made in view of the above points, and can be operated with one hand. The purpose is to provide a content removal mechanism.

[0009]

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to solve the above problems, in this invention, It is attached to the container body filled with the contents, and the operation part is pressed to release the contents. In a contents removal mechanism configured to take out the contents from a discharge nozzle to the outside of the container body. , The discharge nozzle is extended upward, and the discharge port of the discharge nozzle is connected to the operation section. It opens at the upper position of the screen, and the contents are discharged downward by pressing the operation part above. It is characterized by being configured so that

0010

[Effect]

With the above configuration, the contents can be operated by pressing the operating section. It is discharged from the discharge nozzle so that it falls from the top of the unit. Therefore, you can operate it with the back of your hand. By pressing the part, the contents will be discharged into the palm, and the contents can be dispensed with one hand. It becomes possible to perform an operation of discharging objects.

[0011]

【Example】

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In this example, contents removal An example of applying this mechanism to a metering pump is shown below. Figure 1 shows a quantitative port that is an embodiment of the present invention. A container 21 to which a pump 20 is applied is shown. Note that the metering pump 20 shown in the same figure is Most of them have the same configuration as the metering pump 3 explained earlier using FIGS. 3 to 5. Therefore, the same components will be given the same reference numerals and their description will be omitted.

0012 The metering pump 20 according to the present invention has a large curved shape with the discharge nozzle 22 facing upward. At the same time, the discharge port 23 formed at the tip is connected to the upper part of the push button 5. It is characterized by having an opening toward the push button 5 at the position. Ru. Further, the above-described discharge port 23 is arranged at the upper position of the push button 5, and The range is selected such that when the back of the hand is placed on the back of the hand, the contents 4 are discharged onto the palm. According to the metering pump 20 configured as described above, when the push button 5 is pressed, the content is The object 4 travels inside the curved discharge nozzle 22 and moves downward from the discharge nozzle 23. It will then be discharged. Therefore, as shown in the figure, you can press the push button with the back of your hand. By pressing 5, the contents 4 will be discharged onto the palm. Okay According to the metering pump 20, it is possible to take out the contents 4 from the container body 2 with one hand. This makes it possible to improve usability.

[0013] Furthermore, since the discharge nozzle 22 has a shape that extends greatly upward, it is difficult to manufacture the container 21. When shipping as a product, the presence of this discharge nozzle 22 allows the container 21 to be transported in a box, etc. However, this problem also occurs due to the bay of the discharge nozzle 22. The curved portion 22a is configured to be detachable, and during transportation, the curved portion 22a is removed and the container 2 is removed. 1, this curved portion 22a can be attached and used as the configuration shown in FIG. This can be easily solved.

[0014] In addition, in the embodiments described above, an example was shown in which the present invention was applied to a metering pump. However, the application of the present invention is not limited to metering pumps, but also to aerosols. It can be applied to various content removal mechanisms including type dispensers. Of course it can be done.

[0015] Furthermore, in the metering pump 20 shown in FIG. 1, the discharge nozzle 22 is curved and extends upward. Although the shape of the discharge nozzle is not limited to this, for example, 2, the discharge nozzle 24 may be bent into a rectangular shape.

[0016]

[Effect of the idea]

As mentioned above, according to the present invention, the contents can be removed with one-handed operation. It has features such as improved operability.
