I do.

In this embodiment, the powder is a cleaning powder which is housed in a bag denoted by reference numeral 50 in FIG. 1 and is provided separately from the container body 1. It is put into the main body 1 and used. The cleaning powder is a powder having a cleaning action containing a peroxide and a surfactant. Examples of the peroxide include alkali metal perborates, percarbonates, and perphosphates. Inorganic peroxides, organic peroxides, or organic peroxide precursors are used. Particularly preferred among the inorganic peroxides are sodium peroxides such as sodium percarbonate, sodium perborate and sodium persulfate. These peroxides may be used alone or in a combination of two or more. In this embodiment, a synthetic resin bag 50 having a seal portion 50a is used.
Alternatively, it is configured so that the internal cleaning mixture can be easily taken out by breaking other portions.

As the surfactant, generally used surfactants can be used, for example, alkyl sulfates, alkyl benzene sulfonates, polyoxyethylene alkyl ether sulfates, polyoxyethylene alkyl phenyl ethers Anionic surfactants such as sulfates, α-sulfo fatty acid alcohol ester salts and sulfosuccinic acid monoester salts, and nonionic surfactants such as polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers, sorbitan fatty acid esters, alkyl glycosides and alkyl glycoside fatty acid esters And cationic surfactants such as long-chain mono- and dialkyl quaternary ammonium salts and amine oxides, and amphoteric surfactants such as carboxybetaine and sulfobetaine.

The above-mentioned peroxide and the surfactant may be mixed with a liquid, if the peroxide is 1 to 40% by weight (in the present specification, the content ranges from the lower limit to the upper limit of the content).
, The upper and lower limits are included, so that 1 to 40% by weight indicates 1% by weight or more and 40% by weight or less. ), Preferably 0.1 to 20% by weight for a surfactant, 1 to 30% by weight for a peroxide, and 1 to 10% by weight for a surfactant. Is more preferable.
If the peroxide is less than 1% by weight, sufficient washing (bleaching effect)
Is not preferred, and if the amount exceeds 40% by weight, the effect cannot be expected to be improved and the solubility is not preferred. If the amount of the surfactant is less than 0.1% by weight, bubbles or fog is not generated when sprayed or sprayed with a dispenser, and if the amount is more than 20% by weight, not only the effect cannot be expected, but also the cleaning solution cannot be improved. The viscosity is too high, which is not preferable in that injection may not be possible. In addition, even within the above-mentioned range,
For reasons of adhesion and retention of bubbles when sprayed on a wall or the like, the amount of the peroxide is 1 to 30% by weight, and the amount of the surfactant is 1 to 30% by weight.
More preferably, it is set in the range of 10% by weight.

In the powder-mixed liquid product of this embodiment, a liquid such as water is stored in the container body 1 in advance, and the separately-used cleaning powder is taken out of the bag body 50 at the time of use. Of the dispenser 2 into the mouth 12 of the container body 1, and the screw 27 a of the screw cap 27 is screwed into the screw 12 a of the mouth 12. Thereby, the container main body 1 and the dispenser 2 are integrated by the mounting portion 3.

Here, when the container body 1 is gripped and gently rotated in a horizontal plane in a state of being substantially vertical, the ball holder 32 of the suction tube 22 rotates along the cylinder pocket 13 due to the inertial force of the weight 33. Then, the liquid in the container body 1 and the cleaning powder are stirred to form a cleaning aqueous solution in which the cleaning powder is dissolved in the liquid. In this case, the rotation of the ball holder 32 and the weight 33 causes the cleaning powder to rapidly dissolve in the liquid, so that the powder hardly remains undissolved.

Further, by making the container body 1 cylindrical with a bottom, the weight 33 can be easily rotated in a circle, so that the rotational movement of the weight 33 and the stirring of the liquid are promoted. In addition, the provision of the cylinder pocket 13 prevents the ball holder 32 of the suction tube 22 from moving up and down, and promotes the rotating action of the weight 33.

The gas generated inside the container body 1 when the peroxide is dissolved passes through the ventilation groove 41 or 42 of the packing 28 and passes through the screw portion 27a of the screw cap 27 and the screw portion 12a of the mouth portion 12. Can be prevented from being pressurized by the generated gas by being discharged outward from the gap.

After the cleaning powder is dissolved in a liquid to form a cleaning aqueous solution, the trigger lever 24 is grasped by hand and pulled, and the cleaning aqueous solution passes through the gap between the filter 35 and the ball holder 32 and the weight 33. Then, it is blown out from the nozzle portion 23 by the pump portion of the dispenser 2 through the suction tube 22 as a foam or a mist. Next, when the puller of the trigger lever 24 is loosened, the pump unit returns to the original state by the urging force of a spring (not shown). At this time, the cleaning aqueous solution is introduced from the filter 35 through the tube 23 into the pump section of the dispenser main body 21 and filled therein. By repeating the trigger operation, the cleaning aqueous solution in the container body 1 can be continuously blown out.

Next, by providing the ball holder 32 of the suction tube 22 with a weight 33 for obtaining a rotating action and a stirring action, the movement of the internal solution and the cleaning mixture in the container body 1 is promoted, and Can be promoted.

The neck 25 of the dispenser body 21
Ring-shaped packing 2 having ventilation grooves 41 and 42 between the lower surface of flange 26 and the upper end of mouth 12 of container body 1.
8, the gas generated when the cleaning powder containing peroxide dissolves in the liquid is supplied to the ventilation groove 41 or 4.
2 and is discharged to the outside to prevent expansion of the container due to high pressure inside the container body 1.

Next, specific examples of the present invention are shown in Table 1 below as Examples 1 to 6. Table 1 shows an experimental example performed for comparison with Examples 1 to 6 as a comparative example. Here, the material of the suction tube is made of three kinds of polyethylene, silicone resin and soft polyvinyl chloride (PVC). A container was made.
