【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic configuration in which a part of an aerosol container according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown in section. The aerosol container 1 has a container body 2, a rotation stopper member 3, a rotation cover member 4, a push button 5, and the like.

The container body 2 is provided with a storage chamber therein, in which contents such as cosmetics, medicines, insecticides and the like are stored together with a propellant, and an upper end portion is covered with a lid portion 8 as shown in the figure. U The lid 8 is provided with a winding portion 8a on the outer periphery thereof, an outlet of the storage chamber is provided at the center, and an ejection valve (not shown) is provided there. A vertically movable jet pipe 9 is connected to the jet valve. The jet pipe 9 has an upper portion projecting upward from the lid portion 8 of the container body 2, and is provided so that the jet valve that is normally closed can be opened when moving downward.

The rotation stopper member 3 is a cap-shaped member having a low height, and covers the lid portion 8 of the container body 2 and tightly fits the winding tightening portion 8a from the outside to make it unrotatable. The top plate portion 3a of the rotation stopper member 3 is provided with a large-diameter window hole 3b in the central portion around the ejection pipe 9, and a rotation stopper piece 3c is integrally formed at a part of the window hole edge. Form. The rotation stopper piece 3c is in the shape of a small piece, rises from the top plate portion 3a near the edge of the window hole 3b, and the inner end thereof slightly projects into the window hole 3b.

The rotary cover member 4 has a substantially hemispherical shape as a whole, and has a mounting cylinder portion 4a integrally formed therein. Then, while covering the upper portion of the container body 2, the mounting cylinder portion 4a is loosely attached to the rotation stopper member 3 from the outside so as to be freely rotatable. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, a central hole 4b is opened at the top of the rotary cover member 4, and a notch groove 4c is formed by partially notching the hole edge at a radial direction, as shown in FIG. The engaging portion 4d is integrally formed downward from the inner end of the cutout groove 4c, and the lower end is bent inward at a right angle.

The push button 5 has a vertical portion 5a and a horizontal portion 5b formed integrally with each other, and has an ejection passage 5c therein. On the outer periphery of the lower end of the vertical portion 5a, a concave portion 5d is provided on one side in the radial direction and an engaging projection 5e is provided on the other side. When the push button 5 is attached in the direction of the arrow as shown in FIG. 2, the engaging projection 5e is passed through the notch groove 4c, and the ejection pipe 9 is inserted into one end opening of the ejection passage 5c. Fit the upper end firmly. At the same time, the recess 5d and the inner end 3d of the rotation stopper piece 3c are fitted and provided. Then, the upper portion of the vertical portion 5a and the horizontal portion 5b are provided so as to project to the outside of the rotary cover member 4.

When the rotary cover member 4 is rotated to a predetermined rotational position when not in use, the locking portion 4d is located below the engaging projection 5e of the push button 5 as shown in FIG. It will be in a position. Therefore, when the push button 5 is pushed down, the engaging projection 5e engages with the locking portion 4d to stop the push button 5 from being pushed down. On the other hand, in use, when the rotary cover member 4 is rotated to a position other than the predetermined rotation position, the engagement between the locking portion 4d and the engagement protrusion 5e of the push button 5 is released. Then, when the push-down button 5 is pushed down, the lower end of the push-down button 5 enters the window hole 3b and pushes the ejection pipe 9 into the state shown in FIG. Then, an ejection valve (not shown) is opened, and the contents in the container body 2 are sent into the ejection passage 5c through the ejection pipe 9 and ejected from the push button 5. Since the rotation stopper piece 3c is inserted in the recess 5d of the push button 5, it is possible to prevent the push button 5 from being rotated when the rotary cover member 4 is rotated, so that the push button 5 can be rotated around the ejection pipe 9. Prevent movement.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, on the top plate portion 3a of the rotation stopper member 3, an abutting portion 3e with which one side of the locking portion 4d abuts when the rotating cover member 4 is rotated is turned upward. It is recommended to project it. In FIG. 2, another abutting portion located in the reverse direction of the rotary cover member 4 with the locking portion 4d interposed is omitted from the drawing. Then, when the rotary cover member 4 is rotated to a predetermined rotation position, the locking portion 4d hits another abutting portion (not shown), and further rotation is restricted. On the other hand, when the rotation cover member 4 is inverted to a position other than the predetermined rotation position, the locking portion 4d abuts on the abutting portion 3e, and further rotation is restricted. As a result, the rotary cover member 4 is surely rotated to the predetermined rotation position or a position other than the predetermined rotation position.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the rotary cover member 4 is attached to the container body 2 via the rotation stopper member 3 so as to be rotatable. However, although not shown, the rotary cover member 4 may be directly attached to the container body 2 so as to be rotatable.

[0020]

[Effect of the device]

 Therefore, according to the invention as set forth in claim 1, when not in use, the rotary cover member is set to a predetermined rotation position, the engaging projection is engaged with the locking portion, and the push down of the push button is stopped by the rotary cover member. On the other hand, when in use, the rotary cover member is set to a position other than the predetermined rotation position to release the engagement so that the push button can be pressed down. Since the object is ejected from the push button, the conventional cap member can be dispensed with. Therefore, it is possible to save the trouble of attaching and detaching the cap member each time it is used and not used, and it is possible to prevent the loss of the removed cap member.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the rotation stopper member prevents the push button from rotating, when the rotary cover member is rotated, the push button is prevented from rotating with the rotary cover member. It is possible to reliably engage and disengage the locking portion and the push button, and it is possible to prevent the ejection pipe from rotating and adversely affecting the ejection valve.

According to the third aspect of the invention, since the rotation cover member is restricted from rotating by the abutting portion of the rotation stopper member, the rotation cover member is surely moved to the predetermined rotation position or a position other than the predetermined rotation position. Can be rotated to.
