According to the present invention, the container main body 100 having an injection hole 110 in which a male screw 112 is formed on the outer periphery, and a storage member 200 detachably inserted into the injection hole 110. It is screwed to the male screw 112 of the inlet 110 and interferes with the storage member at a predetermined position during rotation is composed of an opening member 300 for separating the storage member 200 from the inlet 110.

The storage member 200 is configured to have a cylindrical shape, the upper end of which is open and the outlet 212 is formed at the lower end. The hook 214 is integrally formed at one side of the outlet 212.

The opening member 300 is a cylindrical end plate 310 formed at the open end of the receiving portion 210, and extends in the axial direction from the outer periphery of the end plate 310 is screwed to the inlet 110 The main cap 320 having the female screw 322 and axially extending from the inner circumference of the end plate 310 and axially movable inside the receiving portion 210 are selectively inserted into the outlet 212. The slider 330 which opens and closes is comprised integrally.

The lower end of the slider 330 is closed by the rupture part 334. The hook 334a coupled to the hook 214 is fixed to the rupture part 334 integrally. The rupture unit 334 is made of a material that can be easily ruptured when an external force is applied. The rupture unit 334 is preferably formed by thinly synthesizing the same synthetic resin as the storage member. Not formed). The rupture unit 334 may be a thin aluminum plate or the like. More preferably, the rupture portion 334 is configured so that the rupture occurs easily, but the rupture portions do not separate from each other and maintain an integral shape.

On the other hand, a fixed ratchet 224 consisting of a ring shape is integrally formed on the inner circumferential surface of the open end of the storage member 200, and the opening member 300 is released on the outer circumferential surface of the slider 330 when the opening member 300 is released with respect to the injection hole 110. A movable ratchet 336 is formed integrally with the fixed ratchet 224 in position.

The fixed ratchet 224 and the movable ratchet 336 are each configured to be in surface contact in the axial direction, respectively, is configured to limit the relative rotation during rotation in the direction in which the opening member 300 is released. In addition, rear surfaces of the fixed ratchet 224 and the movable ratchet 336 are formed with inclined surfaces 224a and 336a to allow the slider 330 to enter the inside of the storage member 220, respectively.

Reference numeral 218, which is not described, is a locking jaw that defines an assembly position of the storage member 200 with respect to the inlet 110, 312 is an entrance, and 350 is an upper cap for opening and closing the entrance.

The operation of the present invention will be described below. First, the clockwise direction mentioned below refers to the direction in which the opening member 300 is locked to the injection hole 110, and the counterclockwise direction refers to the release direction. 2 shows an initial state of the present invention. In this state, the opening member 300 is maintained in a state of being completely fastened to the inlet, and the fixed ratchet 224 and the movable ratchet 336 are kept axially spaced apart, and the hook 334a is hooked ( 214). The fixed ratchet 224 and the movable ratchet 336 have inclined surfaces 336a and 224a so that when the slider 330 enters the receiving portion 210, the upper open end of the storage member 200 is radially first. It is elastically deformed to the outside and can be assembled.

In this state, when the opening member 300 is rotated counterclockwise, the hook 334a is hooked to the hook 214, so that the rupture portion 334 is torn and the additive is discharged through the container body 100 through the outlet 212. It is injected into). If the opening member 300 continues to rotate and continues to climb, the movable ratchet 336 is caught by the fixed ratchet 224. From this point of time, the rotation of the opening member 300 causes the rotation of the storage member 200 and simultaneously moves the storage member 200 in the axial direction. That is, the fixed ratchet 224 and the movable ratchet 336 is limited to mutual rotation, the open member 300 has a force to move in the axial direction, so that the storage member 200 between the inner surface of the injection hole 110 Slip occurs and the movement starts.

And, after the opening member 300 is all released from the inlet 110, the storage member 200 is completely separated from the inlet by pulling the opening member 300 in the axial direction as shown in FIG. It is done.

Meanwhile, FIGS. 5 to 9 illustrate a second embodiment of the present invention. Here, another example of the configuration of the separating means is shown. The same configuration as in the first embodiment is given the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Rotate along and start moving downward (locking direction). At the same time, the slider 330 is lowered, and the rupture part 334 of the slider is torn by the rupture opening 216 disposed at the bottom thereof, so that the additive is introduced into the container body 100 through the outlet 212. Is done. Subsequently, as the descending progresses, the degree of rupture increases, and the addition of the additive is completed in the state in which the opening operation is completed as shown in FIG.

In addition, when the opening member 300 rotates, the movable ratchet 336 rotates together to descend. As shown in FIG. 8A, the movable ratchet 336 interferes with the fixed ratchet 224 at a predetermined position, and in this case, the teeth are deformed into inherent elastic forces while the teeth are formed in an arrangement allowing mutual rotation. And proceeds beyond the progress limit point to maintain the state as shown in Figure 8b.

On the other hand, when the opening member 300 is rotated counterclockwise in this state, the movable ratchet 336 is moved in the reverse direction along the same trajectory as when entering, as shown in Figure 8c. However, at this time, the fixed ratchet 224 is limited to increase the rotation of the movable ratchet 336. Accordingly, the storage member 200 is rotated together with the opening member 300, and the opening member 300 is raised as the female screw 322 rotates along the male screw 112, as shown in FIG. The opening member 300 and the storage member 200 are separated from the injection hole 110 at the same time.
