Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a cap head capable of adjusting a discharge amount,

The present invention relates to a cap head capable of adjusting the amount of discharge and a container having the cap head. More particularly, the present invention relates to a cap head capable of adjusting the discharge amount of the liquid or gaseous contents which has been excessively consumed unintentionally, Lt; / RTI >

Generally, contents contained in a container such as ordinary cosmetics, ironing pads, detergent liquid substances such as hand cleaners, liquid soaps, shampoos, and mousse containing bubbling substances such as LPG are sprayed, pumped, or pumped .

Herein, it is to be understood that the contents refer to those contained in a container such as the above-mentioned ordinary cosmetics, ironing paste, hand cleaner, liquid soap, shampoo or mousse.

On the other hand, there are roughly two methods of using such contents by discharging them from the container.

First, as in Patent Document 1, the head portion formed at the central portion of the container is pressed to discharge a predetermined amount of contents.

The second is a method (not shown and not shown) which is formed by projecting on one side of the head portion of the container and which pushes the operation lever with the spring incorporated therein to pump the contents in the container.

The container of the first type is known as the container shown in Fig.

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a contents discharging container according to a conventional conventional method. According to Fig. 1, a contents discharging container 10 includes a container body 1; A contents (3) accommodated in the container body (1); A discharge tube (2) installed at a central position in the container body (1) in the form of a substantially straight tube formed for discharging the contents (3) to the outside of the container body (1); A cap 4 located at the top of the container body 1; And, optionally, a cap head 5, which may be formed on top of the container body 1 or otherwise additionally located on top of the cap 4; And a pressing head portion 8 that can be pressed by a user to discharge the contents 3 in the container body 1 to the outside.

Here, between the cap head 5 and the pressurizing head portion 8, the cap head 5 and the pressurizing head portion 8 are formed so as to extend from the discharge pipe 2, The shaft 6 as an intermediate structure for delivering the contents 3 to the nozzle 7 can be formed.

It is to be understood that the shaft 6 may have a sufficient length, as shown in Fig. 1, but may be formed in a shape hidden in the cap 4 or cap head 5, as the case may be.

The nozzle 7 may be formed so as to extend to one side of the pressing head portion 8 and the contents 3 discharged from the inside of the container body 1 may be finally discharged to the outside of the container body 1 .

Such a conventional container 10 can be easily understood by a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs (hereinafter referred to as "a typical technician") even if there is no further description of a specific pumping mechanism or other configuration , And further detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In such a conventional container, it is recommended that the contents be used by an amount determined by a single pumping. For example, in the case of shampoo, the amount used once is assumed to be approximately 3.5 ml is discharged.

In such a case, for example, in the case where the length of the hair is short or a smaller amount may be used as needed among family members, the user presses the pressure head portion 8 appropriately and discharges the desired amount, In such a case, it is quite difficult to discharge the desired amount properly. In most cases, the contents are discharged by simply pushing them in at once, which consumes an unnecessary amount of the contents, There is a problem in that the replacement cost of the contents due to the use of excessive detergent is generated even when the detergent is used. Also, when viewed from the environmental standpoint, there is a problem that the unused shampoo is excessively discharged and flows into the river or the like to increase environmental pollution.

In order to solve such a problem, a configuration using a guide bush having a plurality of guide grooves having different lengths as in the conventional patent document 1 is disclosed.

However, in the structure of Patent Document 1, since the projections are accurately inserted into the guide grooves in the guide bushes before use or during use in order to discharge the user's proper amount of contents, It is often difficult to correctly recognize the respective guide grooves and accurately insert the projections in accordance with the recognized guide grooves.

Accordingly, the inventors of the present invention have proposed a cap head capable of adjusting the discharge amount, which can reduce the amount of material used while simplifying the manufacturing process, Thereby creating a container equipped with this.

Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 1999-0078534 (published on Nov. 05, 1999, entitled "

In the following, in describing the present invention, a detailed description of a known technique, including the prior art, for example, a configuration that may unnecessarily obscure the gist of the present invention may be omitted, It is possible.

First, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a container capable of adjusting the emission amount according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

In Fig. 2, it should be noted that the description of the same components as those of the components shown in Fig. 1, for example, the constitution of the container body 1, the contents 3 and the like, is omitted.

Referring to FIG. 2, a container 100 capable of adjusting the amount of emission according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is configured such that the lower flat portion 22 and the step portion (not shown) 24 and the top recess 26 of the concave shape are different from each other in shape.

The cap head 20 is structured such that the nozzle 7 of the pressing head portion 8 is provided in the upper surface of the cap head 20 when the user needs to use a standard usage amount as usual by the configuration of the lower flat portion 22 and the upper concave portion 26 It is preferable to rotate the nozzle toward the lower flat part 22 and press the pressing head part 8 to discharge the contents. On the other hand, when the amount of use is about half of the standard usage amount unlike usual, It is preferable to rotate the upper flat plate portion 7 toward the lower flat portion 22 to push the pressing head portion 8 to discharge the contents.

That is, unlike the conventional container 10, the normal capacity can be discharged by the configuration of the lower flat portion 22 on the left side of the drawing, and the half capacity of the normal capacity, for example, (26).

Next, a specific configuration of the lower flat portion 22 and the upper concave portion 26 of the cap head 20 will be described with reference to FIG. 3 And will be further described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 3 is a front view of a top portion of a container capable of adjusting the emission amount according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a front view of a container capable of adjusting the emission amount, And the upper portion is a rear view seen from the rear side.

3 and 4, the cap head 20 of the present invention is illustrated as being formed on top of the cap 4, but it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that the cap 4, It will be appreciated that the structure of the head 20 may be formed.

That is, according to the present invention, the cap 4 and the cap head 20 may be integrated into one in one embodiment.

Hereinafter, FIGS. 3 and 4 will be described collectively without being separately described, and only one of them can be selected and described as necessary, and if necessary, will be described with reference to the configuration of FIG. 2 You should know that it is possible.

In the figure, a typical cap head 20 may have the height 22 of the lower flat portion.

3, the upper recess 26 is formed in the region of the half (1/2) of the cap head 20 with respect to the lower portion of the cap head 20 Is formed concavely downward from the height of the stepped portions (24) between the protruding wall-like stepped portions (24) protruding upward from one side of the flat portion (22).

At this time, the height of the stepped portion 24 can be set in consideration of the amount of the contents 3 to be discharged.

That is, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the stepped portion 24 may be formed of a high step (for example, about 1/4 capacity), a middle step (for example, about 1/2 capacity) (For example, about 3/4 capacity), and the like.

The use of the word "degree" does not determine the amount of the contents to be discharged depending on the height of the stepped portion 24, but is not designated by the reference numerals in the drawings, Since the discharge amount of the optimum contents is determined when the nozzle 7 of the head part 8 is located and the concave shape of the upper concave part 26 may be changed if necessary, It should be noted that it is used to measure.

In this way, when the stepped portions 24 are formed at different heights, it is possible to know the discharge amount of the contents necessary for the user only by purchasing and using the container 100 only once according to the user, It is sufficient to purchase the container 100 having the stepped portion 24 of the height.

This is because, for example, when the adolescent continues to grow, the container 100 having the high stepped portion 24 is used, and when the adolescent is grown, the container 100 having the low stepped portion 24 is purchased It is possible to dynamically cope with changes in the members in the family, such as a pattern in which a person is in a family.

Although the stepped portion 24 of the present invention is shown as being formed vertically, it is also possible for the user to construct a tilted stepped portion 24 projecting obliquely upward from the lower flat portion 22 for the convenience of the user.

As described above, when the inclined stepped portion 24 is formed, even when the user presses the pressing head portion 8 by moving it to the approximate position, it is possible to ensure a normal discharge amount, that is, It is possible to expect an effect of moving quickly and accurately to the position.

Similarly, the top recess 26 of the present invention begins to be recessed immediately from the position where the step 24 is formed, so that, as can be seen in FIG. 3, the recess 7 The depth can be most deeply formed.

As described above, when adopting a partially inclined configuration, accurate and rapid movement of the pressing head portion 8 can be ensured, even when the amount of material used does not significantly increase.

Alternatively, the upper concave portion 26 may have a concave shape, for example, concavely formed substantially vertically concave at the end of the step portion 24. In such a case, Although an effect that is easy to be expected can be expected, there may be a slight disadvantage that the nozzle 8 must be accurately positioned in the recessed concave portion when the user pivots the pressing head portion 8.

On the contrary, when the upper concave portion 26 has a shape that is continuously concave between the both step portions 24, when the user pivots the pressing head portion 8, the nozzle 8 is positioned in the upper concave portion 24 The nozzle 8 can be positioned at the deepest position of the upper concave portion 26 as shown in Fig. 3, even when the nozzle 8 is moved upward again, As shown in FIG.

As can be seen from Fig. 3, when the user turns the pressure head portion 8 appropriately, for example, to the position of the upper concave portion 26 at the position of the lower flat portion 22 and pivots it to any suitable position , It can always be positioned at the deepest top recess 26.

That is, even when the user places the pressure head portion 8 close to the leftmost position of the upper concave portion 26 or near the rightmost position of the upper concave portion 26 as viewed in the drawing, (8) can be moved to the deepest position of the top recess (26) at any time.

At this time, it should be noted that the nozzle 7 can be placed at the deepest position, for example, the content can be appropriately discharged to about 1/2 of the discharge amount at the lower flat portion 22, .

According to another embodiment of the present invention, instead of forming only one upper concave portion 26, concave portions having two depths may be formed as in the form of? It is to be understood that forming such two or more top recesses when considered is not desirable due to space constraints and that it may be rather difficult for the user to precisely control the amount of contents discharged.

The stepped portion 24 and the upper concave portion 26 can be formed of the same material as the material forming the cap head 20. Since it is sufficient to extend upward from the cap head 20, Does not become extremely high.

It is also possible to form the upper concave portion 26 on the outer periphery of about half of the entire circumference of the cap head 20 without forming the upper concave portion 26, / 3, the upper concave portion 26 can be formed. Therefore, the amount of material used can be remarkably reduced compared to, for example, Patent Document 1.

Furthermore, since the container capable of adjusting the discharge amount of the present invention has a configuration in which the protruding portion 24 and the upper concave portion 26 are formed along the outer periphery of a part of the cap head 20, ) Is simplified.

Further, since the container capable of adjusting the emission amount of the present invention can be operated only in two states as in digital, it can be easily operated even as a child.

Further, if necessary, the stepped portion 24 and the upper recessed portion 26 of the cap head 20 can be made of a different color material from the color of the cap head 20, so that the user can more easily control the discharge amount of the contents .

Alternatively, the cap head 20 itself may be formed in two colors in consideration of the configuration of the stepped portion 24 and the like. For example, white may represent a normal usage amount, and green may represent a usage amount that is reduced by half.

While the present invention has been described in connection with the first of the two methods described in the Background of the Invention section, it will be appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art that the present invention is also applicable to the second method.

For example, according to one modification of the present invention, in order to adjust the amount of the contents to be discharged when the operation lever is completely pressed, (Corresponding to the configuration of the upper concave portion 26 of the present invention) can be formed on the inner side of the projecting portion 24 as shown in Fig.

That is, the preferred embodiment of the present invention differs in that, if the upper recess 26 is formed upwardly of the cap head 20, the recess of the modification is formed in a certain region along the outer periphery of the cap 4 in the radial direction Only.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the scope of the present invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments. It is to be understood that the present invention may be embodied with various changes and modifications and may be practiced or equivalent to those of the present invention.

In addition, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited by the foregoing description, and that the present invention is only defined by the scope of each claim in the claims, since the present invention can be embodied in various other forms as such.
