Description

Vessel containing internal receptacle and hot / cold water dispenser equipped with the same}

The present invention relates to a container for holding a liquid substance and a cold and hot water machine for use thereof. More specifically, the contents contained in the inner container are separated into the inner container containing the liquid contents and the outer container of a material having a stiffness that is not more than the shape does not change due to the pressure caused by the atmospheric pressure and the pressure difference inside the container. And a container for preventing the deterioration of the contents thereof and a cold / hot water machine having an internal structure suitable for use thereof.

Conventionally used containers include glass bottles, pe bottles, pp bottles, aluminum cans, aluminum packs, paper packs, and the like. In general, the container to be used is determined in consideration of the nature of the contents to be contained in the container and the distribution process until the contents contained in the container are consumed. However, the existing container is opened and the contents are exposed to the outside when the contents are exposed to the outside air to start the deterioration of oxidation and vaporization of the contents. Even if the opened container is closed again with a lid or the like, oxidation cannot be prevented completely because external air has already flowed into the container. In addition, once the container is opened, the carbonated beverage or aromatic contents are diluted with carbon dioxide or vaporized contents as they are released to the outside through the opening of the container. In case of repeated use after opening, the dilution is further accelerated, resulting in a difference in quality from when the container is first opened. As the contents of the liquid are consumed, the empty space inside the container increases, thus promoting the vaporization of the contents.

This action deteriorates the contents and reduces the freshness. Silk, even if it does not harm a person hygiene is different from the original quality, resulting in a decrease in the satisfaction of the product. In addition, a large bottle of mineral water is consumed for a relatively long time after opening, so there is a high possibility that the contents will be deteriorated. The large bottle of water is continuously recycled through a washing process, and whether the inside of the bottle is cleanly cleaned may also be of interest and doubt to consumers. In addition, perfumes and other chemicals are adsorbed inside the container and it is very difficult to clean up the residues. Therefore, it is often better to use a new container than to recycle the container. Thus, once used containers are disposed of, causing a lot of economic and environmental problems.

The present invention separates the inner container and the outer container to contain the contents in the inner container, by introducing air into the space between the inner container and the outer container to discharge the contents to block the contact between the contents and the outside air and use all the contents inside Only the container is replaced to provide a means to induce recycling of the outer container.

An object of the present invention is to separate the inner container and the outer container by introducing air into the space between the outer container and the inner container to provide a means for preventing the contents contained in the inner container in contact with the external air to prevent the deterioration of the contents. It is for.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a means by which only the inner container can be removed by simply removing the inner container.

The present invention relates to a container 100 in which an outer container and an inner container are separated, and a cold / hot water bottle 200 used in combination therewith.

The container 100 of the present invention includes the outer container 110, the inner container 120, the inner stopper 130, the external air inlet means 140, and the outer stopper 150 as basic components.

The outer container 110 is a material having a rigidity not more than the deformation of the shape with respect to the external force due to the pressure difference between the atmospheric pressure and the atmospheric pressure inside the container and an opening 111 capable of discharging the contents contained in the container from a portion thereof. To form. As the material of the outer container 110, for example, a plastic bottle, a glass bottle, an aluminum can of a predetermined thickness, or the like having a predetermined thickness is suitable. According to the present invention, as the contents of the liquid contained in the container are discharged, the internal pressure of the container is lowered, and the air is introduced into the container by the difference between the atmospheric pressure and the internal pressure of the container. By inducing the space between the contents to prevent contact with the outside air. Therefore, the material of the outer container 110 may maximize the effect of the external air induction action should not be deformed by the pressure difference.

The inner container 120 is physically separated from the outer container 110. The opening 121 of the inner container 120 is formed at the same position as the opening 111 of the outer container, and the contents contained in the inner container 120 are liquid contents. And the inner container 120 is formed as a material of a soft material such as pe, pp film that can shrink by crushing after the contents are discharged to the outside.

The inner stopper 130 is coupled to the inner container 120 and fitted into the opening 111 of the outer container to be fixed. Since the inner container 120 is formed of a soft material, when the contents of the liquid are contained, the inner container 120 cannot support its own weight. Therefore, it must be fixed somewhere. By the way, the inner container 120 and the outer container 110 has a completely separated structure is advantageous to separate the inflow path of the air and the discharge path of the contents. Therefore, the inner stopper 130 serves as a buffer component to prevent the outer container 110 and the inner container 120 is not directly coupled.

The external air inlet means 140 allows the external air to flow into the space between the outer container 110 and the inner container 120 to smoothly discharge the contents contained in the inner container 120. The external air inlet means 140 may be modified in the form of holes 141 and 143 or the pressurizing device 144, and may be replaced by performing the same function.

The outer stopper 150 serves to prevent the contents from spilling while completely blocking the inside of the container and the outside air. The outer stopper 150 is coupled to the opening 111 or the inner stopper 120 of the outer container by a screw type or frictional force.

Various modifications are possible as a method of separating the inflow path of the air and the discharge path of the contents based on the basic components. Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the present invention and a detailed plan view of the inner plug which is a component of the present invention, wherein the inner plug 130 has an outlet 131 and the outside air of the contents connected to the opening 121 of the inner container; The hole 143 as the inflow means 140 is formed. The outlet 131 of the inner stopper is formed with a one-way valve 132 that opens when the contents are discharged and closes when the contents stop. As shown in FIG. 1, the one-way valve 132 includes a ball and a spring, and while the ball is not discharged, the ball blocks the outlet 131 of the inner plug by elastic force of the spring. It blocks the inflow of external air into the inner container 120. Therefore, even when the outer cap 150 is opened, the external air can only flow into the space between the inner container 120 and the outer container 110 through the air inlet hole 143 formed in the inner stopper and inflow into the inner container. Is impossible. If the discharge pressure of the contents of the inner container 120 is greater than the elastic force of the spring supporting the ball (BALL) blocking the outlet 131 of the inner cap (BALL) the contents were blocking the outlet 131 of the inner cap (BALL) The outlet of the inner stopper 131 is opened by pushing), and the contents are discharged through the open outlet. When the discharge pressure of the contents becomes lower than the elastic force of the spring supporting the ball as the contents are released, the ball (BALL) again blocks the outlet 131 of the inner plug by the restoring force of the spring so that the external air Do not allow to enter 120). In other words, the one-way valve 132 opens and closes the outlet 131 of the inner plug according to the difference between the discharge pressure of the contents and the elastic force of the spring, thereby discharging the contents of the inner container 120 to the outside, but the inner container 120 of the outside air. The inflow of the furnace serves to block. Naturally, the one-way valve 132 shown in FIG. 1 may be replaced with another device that performs the same function as one embodiment.

Figure 2 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the present invention and a detailed cross-sectional view of the inner plug that is a component of the present invention, the length of the straw (outlet 131) to the lower portion of the inner container 120 from which the outlet is discharged The one-way valve 132 consisting of a ball (BALL) and a spring, as shown in the specific example of FIG. 1, is formed at a portion formed of the 133 and in contact with the straw 133 and the inner stopper 130. In addition, the pressurizing device 144 is installed as a means 140 for introducing external air. When the pressure device 144 increases the pressure in the space between the inner container 120 and the outer container 110, the pressure is applied to the inner container 120 by the increased pressure and the inner container 120 by this force. The contained contents are discharged to the outside through the straw 133. As shown in FIG. 2, the pressurizing device 144 is installed on the upper portion of the inner stopper 130, and unlike the straw 133, a passage is not formed with the inner container, and the inner container 120 and the outer container 110 are formed. Connected with the space between. The pressurizing device 144 has a cylinder, a piston and a piston restoring spring projecting to the upper surface of the inner stopper 130, and a plurality of air passages are provided on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder at the portion where the cylinder and the inner stopper 130 are coupled. It is formed and a ball and a spring are mounted inside the air passage. In addition, the air passage is also formed in the inner stopper 130 of the cylinder mounting portion of the pressurizing device 144, the ball (BALL) and the spring is mounted inside the air passage. Therefore, the outside air flows into the space between the inner container 120 and the outer container 110 through the air passage formed on the outer peripheral surface of the cylinder and the inner stopper 130. When pressing the T-shaped handle protruding out of the cylinder of the pressurizing device 144 shown in FIG. 2, the piston connected to the handle moves downward along the inner wall of the cylinder while compressing the spring inside the cylinder, thereby compressing and compressing the air inside the cylinder. If the compressed air pressure is greater than the elastic force of the spring supporting the ball (BALL) blocking the air passage formed in the inner cap 130, the compressed air is blocked the ball (BALL) blocking the air passage formed in the inner plug 130 Pushed out to open the air passage of the inner plug 130, the compressed air inside the cylinder is introduced into the space between the inner container 120 and the outer container 110 through the open air passage. As such, the air passage formed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder in the process of compressing the piston is blocked by the ball (BALL) supported by the spring so that the air inside the cylinder does not leak to the outside. As the piston moves to the bottom dead center, the compressed air is introduced into the space between the inner container 120 and the outer container 110 through the air passage of the inner cap 130, and the air pressure inside the cylinder is lowered below the elastic force of the spring. The ball (BALL) pushed by the restoring force of the mask spring again blocks the air passage of the inner plug 130. On the contrary, if the T-shaped handle protruding out of the cylinder of the pressurizing device 144 is left in a free state, the piston moves upward along the inner wall of the cylinder by the restoring force of the spring, and the inside of the cylinder is temporarily close to vacuum and the outside air Air pressure acts on the ball blocking the air passage formed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder and pushes the ball supported by the spring to open the air passage formed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder. Through the outside air is introduced into the cylinder. As such, the air passage formed in the inner stopper 130 during the expansion of the piston is blocked by a ball supported by the spring, and thus the space between the inner container 120 and the outer container 110 is prevented. Do not allow air in the cylinder to leak in the direction of the cylinder. As the outside air flows into the cylinder through the air passage formed on the outer circumference of the cylinder, when the pressure difference between the inside of the cylinder and the outside air falls below the elastic force of the spring, the ball that was pushed by the restoring force of the spring is returned to the cylinder. It blocks the air passage formed on the outer circumferential surface. The pressurizing device 144 is a plurality of air passages formed on the outer circumferential surface of the cylinder and a plurality of air passages formed on the inner stopper 130 through the compression and expansion of the piston as described above. The air flows into the space between 110. Since the one-way valve 132 is formed in the straw 133 as described above, external air does not flow into the inner container 120. The straw 133 shown in FIG. 2 is mounted on the outer surface of the inner stopper 130 to be in contact with the outside air and the inner surface of the inner stopper 130 to be inserted into the inner container 120. The inner stopper 130 in which the straw 133 divided into two parts is mounted is mounted to the one-way valve 132 shown in FIG. 1 so that the contents of the inner container 120 may be discharged to the outside through the straw. It can be, but the outside air can not flow into the inner container (120). In other words, two separate straws 133 are connected to the outer surface and the inner surface of the outlet 131 of the inner stopper 130 on which the one-way valve 132 is mounted as shown in FIG. This will form a passage for release. The one-way valve 132 of FIG. 2 shows one embodiment and can be replaced by a device that performs the same function.

Figure 3 is a separate longitudinal cross-sectional view and a detailed cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the present invention, by another modification of the inner cap 130 and the deformation of the outer container 110 can be made another embodiment of the container. The inner stopper 130 is not a structure that can separate the discharge path of the contents and the inflow path of the outside air, the discharge port 131 is connected to the opening 121 of the inner container 120 as a path through which the contents are simply discharged. Form a bay. However, the outlet 131 is blocked by a thin closed membrane 134 such as pp, pe material that can be easily drilled with a tool such as an awl. In addition, the outer container 110 is a container in which a hole 141 serving as the external air inlet 140 and a stopper 142 that can block the hole 141 are formed. That is, the contents are discharged through the opening 111 formed in the upper portion of the outer container 110, and air is introduced into the hole 141 formed in the lower portion of the outer container 110. This embodiment is to replace the bottled water used on cold and hot water used in homes and offices.

Figure 4 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view showing the embodiment of Figure 3 is used, the specific example is the same as used upside down on the cold and hot water heater as the conventional bottled water, but air is introduced into the lower portion of the outer container 110 as described above Since the hole 141 is formed, the cold and hot water heater 200 of the present invention is completely combined with the upper opening 111 of the outer container 110 of the above embodiment so that air may be introduced into the opening 111 through which the contents are discharged. It should have no internal structure. And before starting the first use should be an internal structure in which the protrusions 220 that can penetrate the thin closed membrane 134 of pp, pe material formed on the inner stopper 130 is formed. The protrusion 220 is advantageously formed with a larger diameter than the lower portion of the head. As a specific example of the internal structure of the cold and hot water heater 200, there may be an internal structure in which the female screw portion 210 is formed so as to be engaged with the opening 111 of the outer container by screwing, the other having the same effect Of course, it can be replaced by a structure.

The present invention separates the inner container and the outer container to prevent the contents contained in the inner container from being deteriorated in contact with the outside air and to provide a means for recycling the outer container by replacing only the inner container after consuming all the contents. It became.
