Description

[Detailed description of the invention] A. Purpose of the invention: Industrial field of application The invention relates to containers. Specifically, it relates to containers for liquids that can be easily poured, such as water jugs, sauce and soy sauce containers, liquor containers, soft drink bottles, kerosene containers, and other various containers. It concerns containers.

Conventional technology and its problems Conventionally, when pouring liquid from a container, most containers have a pouring spout at the top and are poured by tilting the spout.

However, with this conventional dispensing method, if there is a lot of liquid in the container, it tends to spill unless you tilt it very carefully, and if you cannot see the amount of liquid inside, it is difficult to know what slope is appropriate. This was extremely inconvenient as it would only come out little by little or a large amount would come out all at once. Moreover, even if the liquid was visible, the degree of inclination had to be carefully adjusted while looking at the liquid surface, and it was not easy to pour out. In other words, conventional dispensing containers such as water jugs, soybean oil pitchers, sake bottles, etc., are not all capable of dispensing in a constant state while keeping the angle of inclination constant. In other words, if there was a large amount of liquid in the container, it was necessary to reduce the angle of inclination and gradually increase the inclination while dispensing, which required extremely careful dispensing.

Furthermore, most conventional containers do not drain well at the spout, which means that water remains from the spout, making it extremely difficult to use, for example, sake bottles and soybean oil bottles.

The above-mentioned difficulty in using conventional products has been overlooked by everyone as a matter of course, but the inventor of this invention purposefully developed a new technical solution to solve this natural drawback. This was taken up as an issue.

This invention was obtained as a result of various studies aimed at solving these drawbacks, and it is extremely easy to pour out, and the internal liquid can be poured out in a stable state at a constant angle of inclination. He devised a dispensing container that stops dispensing when the dispensing process is stopped, and there is almost no lingering phenomenon at this time.

B. Structure of the invention The structure of the invention is such that a spout is attached to the lower part of the front of the container, an inlet is provided in the front of the container, a cylindrical body facing rearward from the inlet is inserted into the container, The gist of the present invention is a pouring container characterized in that the tip of the cylindrical body is located near the bottom surface of the container.

Measures to solve the problem: Attach a spout at the bottom of the front of the container, insert the cylinder from the spout side, that is, from the front, toward the rear of the container, so that the tip of the cylinder is near the bottom of the container. I made it so that it would come.

The present invention will be explained in detail below.

FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of one embodiment of the container of the present invention.

2 is a perspective view of the embodiment of FIG. 1; FIG.

As shown in these figures, in the present invention, a spout 1 is attached to the lower part of the front of a container a, and a cylindrical body 2 is inserted from the side where the spout 1 is installed, that is, from the front of the container a toward the rear of the container a. It is something. The inlet of this cylindrical body 2 is an inlet 3, and the cylindrical opening 8 at the tip of this cylindrical body 2 is opened close to the bottom surface 4 through an appropriate shape and angle of the cylindrical body 2.

Further, the cylinder opening 8 is the internal opening 6 of the spout 1.
The spout 1 is located approximately on the same plane as the spout 1 and spaced apart from the spout 1 in a direction opposite to the direction of the spout 1.

Note that it is sufficient if the small hole 5 is provided in the vicinity of the cylindrical body opening 8.

Function The configuration of the present invention is as described above, and when pouring liquid s into this container a, the container is placed so that the spout 1 and the spout 3 are on the top, and the spout 3 is placed on the top.
It is injected through the cylinder body 2.

In this case, it is of course possible to inject from the spout 1, and the inlet 3 is not limited to injecting liquid.

Furthermore, if a flat surface 7 is formed on the container a, this flat surface 7 can be placed as a bottom surface at the time of pouring, so that stable pouring becomes possible.

After injecting liquid s into container a in this way,
When this container a is placed as shown in FIG. 1, the liquid s does not flow out from the spout 1 or the inlet 3 due to atmospheric pressure, and a constant liquid level h is maintained.

When pouring out the liquid s, the container a is tilted to lower the outlet of the spout 1, and the liquid in the spout 1 flows and reaches the outlet. At the same time, the liquid in the cylinder 2 is pushed out and the liquid level h in the cylinder 2 approaches the cylinder opening 8, and the small hole 5 is completely opened, so that air bubbles from the small hole 5 into the container a. It flows in and starts dispensing from the spout 1.

When the container a stops tilting and returns to its normal position, the opposite effect to that described above occurs and the dispensing stops.

At this time, a portion of the liquid in the spout 1 is sucked into the cylinder 2, so the liquid level h in the spout 1 becomes sufficiently low, and the amount of backflow is reduced. In other words, when it returns to normal, the liquid level h in the cylinder 2
As the liquid returns to its original position and rises, the necessary liquid is sucked up and the liquid level h of the spout 1 is lowered to return to its original position. This action eliminates the lingering phenomenon (bottom leakage), and at the same time, because the liquid level at the spout 1 is lowered, it is also possible to prevent spills from occurring due to slight shaking or temperature changes.

Furthermore, when pouring out liquid, there is no need to change the degree of inclination, regardless of the amount of internal liquid.
However, it goes without saying that in order to change the strength of pouring, it is necessary to change the degree of inclination.

As shown in FIG. 1, if the internal opening 6 of the pouring spout 1 is in contact with the bottom surface 4 of the container a, the liquid can be poured out easily.

Note that the small hole 5 is used to adjust the inflow of air, and adjusting the amount using the small hole 5 has the effect of making pouring very smooth.

In other words, if there is no small hole 5, a large amount of air is likely to enter the container a from the cylindrical opening 8 at once, and therefore the pouring of the liquid s from the spout 1 is likely to be disturbed.

Note that the position of the small hole 5 also affects the height of the liquid level h, the inclination angle at the time of pouring, etc., so care must be taken.
In particular, the purpose of the present invention can be achieved by appropriately designing the volume and shape of the cylindrical body 2.

Furthermore, in the present invention, it goes without saying that the pouring spout 1 and the filling spout 3 may be integrated in close proximity to each other, and thereby bottles and containers with various unique designs can be put to practical use. FIG. 3 is a sectional view of one example.

As described above, if the container of the present invention is tilted at a certain angle, the liquid s can be poured out in a constant state, there is almost no backflow from the spout 1, and the liquid s can be poured into the container a very easily. It is something that can be easily achieved.

C. Effect of the idea The effects of the present invention are listed below.

(a) Since the spout is located at a low position, it is easy to pour into relatively small drinking utensils, etc.

(b) Since there is almost no lingering phenomenon, the bottom of the container is clean and free of dirt.

(c) Since the liquid can be poured in a steady state by tilting at a certain angle, there is no need to look at the liquid level, so even in an opaque container, extremely smooth pouring can be achieved.

(d) Therefore, a wide range of materials such as glass, plastic, metal, and ceramics can be used to manufacture this container.

(e) It is also possible to design bottles with very unique designs for various beverages.

Because of the various effects mentioned above, the containers of this invention can be used as containers for dispensing sauces and soybean oil, dispensing containers for kerosene, etc., various types of water jugs, bottles for alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, etc.
It can be used extremely effectively for various other containers.
