Abstract

FIELD: transportation, packaging.

SUBSTANCE: device for batched distribution of fine-dispersed material comprises container, fixed part of cover with vertical side walls, which is rigidly fixed on container neck and having plane covering section of container neck, movable part and plug installed with the possibility of their simultaneous rotation, through vertical hole, through which fine-dispersed material arrives. Fixed part of cover with plane covering section of container neck has round hole with diametre of at least twice below diametre of neck, axis of which is displaced from centre of neck by quarter of its diametre. Vertical side walls of fixed cover part have output hole and symmetrically arranged profiled grooves, which are not connected to each other, where protruding profiled elements of movable part are installed, and movable part tightly interacts with fixed part of cover, and movable part itself has holes similar to holes in fixed part of cover and oriented with protruding elements so that movable part may be fixed in two positions relative to fixed part of cover, besides in the first position round holes match each other, and in the second position output holes are matched, and round ones are overlapped. Fixed part of cover is closed with plug having corrugated side surface.

EFFECT: development of new device design for batched distribution of fine-dispersed material, which provides for its accurate batching.

Description

The device relates to packaging for finely dispersed materials, which carry out the dosed dispensing of finely dispersed material. The invention relates to the field of food products for dispensing a dose of a bulk product, such as, for example, instant coffee, but it can also be used to dispense any product that has a finely divided structure, for example, laundry detergent, detergent or the like.

Currently, many bulk products are dosed using measuring spoons, lowered into a container with the product. This is not very convenient, since the measuring spoon may be wet or not clean enough, which will affect the quality and shelf life of the product. Also, in order to lower the measuring spoon into the container, it must be opened, and therefore, the product is in contact with the environment, which can also lead to a decrease in shelf life and loss of product quality. For example, instant coffee can lose its aroma and absorb odors from the environment, and moisture causes the coffee granules to stick together. The proposed device is devoid of these disadvantages, because allows you to get a certain dose of bulk product without opening the container.

In the known device for the issuance of fine material contains a container with a fixed part of the lid with vertical side walls. The lid is fixed rigidly on the neck of the container and is equipped with a plane overlapping the section of the neck of the container, and a movable part with a plug, which are installed with the possibility of their simultaneous rotation. The cover has a through vertical hole through which finely dispersed material [1].

The disadvantage of this device is that it is capable of delivering some indefinite amount of material, which depends on the opening time of the through hole, which causes uncertainty in dosing.

The proposed device is devoid of these disadvantages, because capable of delivering a certain dose of bulk material. For this, a lid consisting of the fixed and movable parts and the plug is fixed to the neck of the container. The movable part can be fixed in two positions relative to the fixed part, and in the first position, the circular openings coincide, and in the second position, the outlet openings coincide, and the round openings overlap. Thus, in the first position in the lid, a certain dose of fine material is formed, and in the second position, this dose is precipitated. The movable part of the lid is closed with a plug. For ease of rotation, the plug has a corrugated side surface.

Figure 1 shows an isometric projection of the proposed device; figure 2 - operating position of the device.

The device has a container 1, on the outer side of the neck there are two symmetrically located profile grooves that are not connected to each other and in which the protruding elements of the fixed part of the lid 2 are fixed. This part of the lid has a plane with a round opening with a diameter of at least two times smaller than the diameter of the neck. The axis of the hole is offset from the center of the neck by a quarter of its diameter. In this part of the cover there are vertical side walls in which there is an outlet and symmetrically located profile grooves that are not connected to each other. The protruding profile elements of the movable part of the cover 3 are inserted into these grooves. This part has openings similar to the holes in the fixed part of the cover and oriented with the protruding elements so that the movable part can have two positions relative to the fixed part. In the first position shown in FIG. 1, the round holes coincide, and in the second position shown in FIG. 2, the outlet openings match. The movable part of the lid is closed by a cap 4. On the side of the cap there is a wide corrugated surface.

The operation of the device is as follows.

The container 1 is filled with fine material and closed with a lid consisting of parts 2-4. In order to measure the dose of fine material, it is necessary to turn the container 1 180 degrees. Due to this, powder begins to pour out through round holes in parts 2 and 3 of the lid, the volume of which is determined by the side walls of part 3 and the plug 4. After that, the plug 4 together with the movable part 3 are rotated 120 degrees. In this case, the round holes diverge, and the outlet openings in parts 2 and 3 of the cover coincide. Next, the device is placed in a horizontal position with the outlet down. A certain part of the material placed in the container is always poured out of the hole. To obtain the next next dose, it is necessary to repeat all operations again, starting with the flipping of the container.
