BEVERAGE DISPENSER HAVING PRESSURIZED UNDD UTED
SOLUTION CONTAINER
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a beverage dispenser having a pressurized undiluted solution container, and more particularly, to a beverage dispenser capable of separately storing two different substances in one container, whereby a user can mix and drink the substances.
Background Art
Generally, dispensers or bottles for storing a beverage fluid are made of a transparent material, and have on its upper end a cap to isolate the contents from the atmosphere. Liquid substances to be stored in the dispenser are previously mixed to make one mixture, and then the mixture is introduced into the dispenser. Since such mixture of different substances causes rapid deterioration, the product to be sold has an available period provided by a rule. In particular, in order to use a beverage made from vegetable concentrated sap obtained from a fruit, trunk, root or the like of a plant, the sap is mixed with water, and then is stored in the dispenser. In this case, since the contents of the dispenser is easily deteriorated, it provides a problem that the contents cannot be stored in the dispenser for a long time. Therefore, it is impossible to properly commercialize the sap.
Meanwhile, it is a matter of how much the quality of the contents stored in the dispenser is trusted. As a matter of fact, consumers are in a delicate position of fully trusting a description provided from a producer which is attached to a surface of the dispenser, thereby no providing a method of identifying the truth of the contents. Disclosure of the Invention
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to solve the problems involved in the prior art, and to provide a beverage dispenser having a transparent container for storing an undiluted solution, in which the container is separately accommodated in water in the dispenser to isolate the undiluted solution from the water, so that a user opens the container to mix the undiluted solution with the water and drink the mixture before drinking.
In order to accomplished the above mentioned objects, the present invention provides a beverage dispenser having a double structure composed of a dispenser for storing a water and an undiluted solution container, the container engaged to a cap of the dispenser, the beverage dispenser comprising: a cap having a supporting portion downwardly and coaxially protruded from the cap, a lower portion thereof a groove being formed under the supporting portion for receiving and securing an opening of the undiluted solution container, the groove being integrally formed with a plurality of cutting blades along an inner edge of the groove, and a cut groove being formed in the cap under the cutting blade so that the cutting blade access; a resilient member inserted into an inside of the supporting portion, and having a disc-shaped flange and a resilient portion integrally formed with the flange; and a push button inserted into the resilient member, and having on its lower portion a slant surface contacted to the cutting blades and a locking portion for preventing the inserted push button from being moved upward; the undiluted solution container having a thin film formed along a periphery thereof on a position corresponding to the respective cutting blade, and made of a transparent rubber having a hollow capable of storing the undiluted solution. In addition, the cap is provided in its center with a recessed portion to receive the resilient member and the push button, so that the cover is engaged to the recessed portion to cover the push button.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
The construction of a beverage dispenser accommodating a container for storing a pressurized undiluted solution according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown in detail.
A cover 36 is inserted into a recessed portion 21 of a cap 20, but it is appreciated that the beverage dispenser of the present invention can use without the cover. This is the reason a push button 30 is located at a position lower than an upper portion of the cap, so that the possibility of the cap being operated due to the external impact may be prevented.
A supporting portion 22 is downwardly and coaxially protruded from the cap, and has on a lower portion thereof a groove 16 for receiving and securing an opening of an undiluted solution container 14. The groove 16 is integrally formed with a plurality of, at least two, cutting blades 26 along its inner edges. Each of the cutting blade has a sharpened portion faced outwardly (referring to Fig. 5). The supporting portion 22 has a cut groove 27 at a portion corresponding to the cutting blade so that the sharpened portion of the cutting blade can access to the corresponding cut groove 27. It is preferable to integrally manufacture the cap 20, the supporting portion 22, the cutting blade 26 and the cut groove 27, by means of injection molding. A resilient member 24 made of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, synthetic resin or the like is inserted into an inside of the supporting portion 22. The resilient member has on its upper portion a disc-shaped flange 28 contacted with a lower end of the recessed portion 21 of the cap, and a tubular resilient portion 29 integrally formed with the disc-shaped flange 28. Accordingly, the position of the push button 30 inserted into the supporting portion 22 can be maintained by the resilient member. The resilient member engages to a ring-shaped locking portion 38 protruded from a center of the push button to prevent the inserted push button from being moved upward. In addition, in order to use the beverage dispenser of the present invention, if the user presses in the push button and then releases the pressing force from the push button, the push button is risen by the resiliency of the resilient member. In other words, a groove 32 is circumferentially formed in the upper portion of the push button. If the push button is lowered, the resilient portion 29 of the resilient member 24 is sloped toward the groove 32, thereby distorting a height of the resilient portion. If the force applied to the push button is released, the push button is risen by the resilience of the resilient portion 29.
A slant surface 34 is circumferentially formed on a lower portion of the push button, and is contacted to the cutting blades. If the push button is pressed, the slant surface 34 is lowered, so that the cutting blades are stretched outwardly to rupture a thin film 14a of the undiluted solution container.
Preferably, the undiluted solution container 14 is made of transparent natural rubber, transparent nontoxic synthetic rubber or resin or the like. A diameter of the container filled with undiluted solution 110 therein has to be slightly smaller than an inner diameter of the dispenser 10. It is the reason the container filled with the undiluted solution is assembled to the cap, and then it is engaged to the dispenser 10. The method of filling the undiluted solution container 14 with the undiluted solution 110 will now be explained in brief. Referring to Fig. 2, a pair of detachable molds 40 is formed in a center thereof with a hollow 42, a volume of the hollow 42 is equal to that of the maximally expanded container. The hollow 42 is provided with a plurality of intake holes 44 for discharging air from the mold, the intake holes connected to an air intake unit (not shown). The undiluted solution container 14 engaged to the supporting portion 22 of the cap 20 is inserted into the hollow 42 of the mold 40 through a narrow passage form in an upper portion of the hollow. When the air is discharged outwardly from the hollow 42 of the mold through the intake holes 44, the interior of the mold forms a vacuum, so that the undiluted solution container 14 is expanded to closely contact with an inner wall of the mold. At that time, a constant amount of undiluted solution 110 is introduced into the container through the center of the supporting portion by use of an automatic liquid injecting machine. After that, the supporting portion is closed by the push button 30, and then the mold 40 is detached from the container.
As described above, the undiluted solution container 14 filled with the undiluted solution is inserted into the opening of the dispenser 10, and simultaneously, the dispenser 10 is closed by engaging the cap 20 to the opening 12 of the dispenser 10, so that two different substances may be separately stored in one dispenser. The cap is provided in its center with the recessed portion 21 to receive the cover 36 covering the recessed portion 21, as well as receiving the resilient member 24 and the push button 30. The water stored in the dispenser 10 comprises mineral water, spring water or the like. The undiluted solution 110 comprises an undiluted solution of beverage such as fruit, greengrocery or the like, and a natural medicine extract of ginseng, drugstuff or the like.
With the construction described above, the beverage dispenser accommodating the container for storing the pressurized undiluted solution according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention may be used as following. Referring to Figs. 3 and 4, the cover 36 is detached from the cap (if there is no the cover, this process is omitted), the push button 30 is pressed by a thumb of the user. The resilient portion 29 is inserted into the groove 32 and is compressed, and simultaneously, the push button 30 is lowered, so that the cutting blades 26 contacted with the slant surfaces 34 of the push button are outwardly expanded. After that, if the force applying to the push button is released, the push button is risen to its original position by the resilient portion 29 of the resilient member. Accordingly, the sharpened portion of each cutting blade tears the thin film 14a of the container. At that time, the undiluted solution filled in the container is rapidly discharged through the ruptured portion of the thin film to be mixed with the water in the dispenser. After that, the user shakes well the dispenser to sufficiently mix the water with the undiluted solution, and opens the cover 20, before drinking.
Meanwhile, as shown in Fig. 4, if the undiluted solution is entirely discharged from the compressed container, the container is shrunk to a minimum volume, and is located under the supporting portion 22, thereby no causing any inconvenience of drinking the mixed beverage. Industrial Applicability
As apparent from the above description, to the beverage dispenser according to the present invention separately stores two different substances in respective container, so that it can store them in one container to prevent the store substances from being deteriorated.
In addition, with the construction of the present invention, when drinking the contents, the user can mix the undiluted solution with the water by rupturing the undiluted solution container at once before drinking, thereby providing an advantage that the user can always drink the fresh beverage. Also, the undiluted solution stored in the container is kept in a vacuum state, thereby preventing the deterioration of the contents and maintaining flavor, perfume and local component of the contents in the best of condition.
Furthermore, according to the present invention, the colored undiluted solution floated in the water in the transparent dispenser provides a visible effect such as a weightless state. When the undiluted solution container is ruptured for drinking, the colored undiluted solution is rapidly dispersed into the water. Therefore, the consumer has a trust in the product, and also, the consumer derives pleasure from the product.
