    •  BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
  • Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described more in detail hereinafter in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numerals will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts.
  • FIGS. 1 through 3 shows a cap according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • A cap 1 is screw-coupled to a container.
  • The cap 1 includes a cap main body 10 having a storage portion 12 defining a storage space 11 and an outer cap 20 coupled to the cap main body 10.
  • The cap 1 includes a seal plate 30 and an operation member 40 that is designed to break the seal plate according to the operation of the outer cap 20. The operational member 40 is located inside the storage portion 12.
  • The seal plate 30 is preferably formed of synthetic resin or aluminum, being attached on a lower end of the storage portion 12.
  • The cap main body 10 is provided with a folding portion 21 with a folding line 13. A spouting portion 24 is formed on an outer surface of the folding portion 21 and coupled to the outer cap 20. A spouting member 22 is inserted in the spouting portion 24.
  • The spouting member 22 is provided with an operational projection 23 extending downward to break the seal plate 30. A hook step 27 is formed on the spouting portion 24 to prevent the spouting member 22 from removing. A spouting hole 28 is provided to exhaust a mixture.
  • The spouting member 22 is provided with a spouting passage 25 and an air introduction portion 26 in a longitudinal direction.
  • The operational member 40 is provided with fixing portion 41 fixed inside the storage portion 12 and connected to the fixing portion 41 by a connection portion 42.
  • In the above-described embodiment, in a state when different material is stored in the storage portion 12, the seal plate 30 is attached and the cap main body 10 coupled to the outer cap 20 is fixed on the container.
  • In this state, the spouting portion 24 and the outer cap 20 are disposed on a horizontal plan as shown in FIG. 2.
  • At this point, as shown in FIG. 1, when the spouting portion 24 and the outer cap 20 are pivoted to a vertical position, the folding portion 21 is moved outward by the folding line 13 and the operational projection 23 formed on the spouting portion 22 pivots to allow the operational member 40 to pivot and break the seal plate 30.
  • Therefore, the different material stored in the storage portion 12 is dropt into the container to mix with main material contained in the container.
  • In this state, the outer cap 20 is separated and the mixture can be spouted through the spouting passage 25 through the spouting hole 28 of the spouting member 22.
  • Since the spouting member 22 is vertically movable, the user can be more easily drink the mixture. Furthermore, since the air introduction portion 26 is formed on the spouting member 22, the mixture can be effectively discharged.
