It is spaced at regular intervals to form a space. The contents discharge guide 120 is recessed in the central portion while the liquid discharge port 123 is perforated discharge guide portion 122, and is provided in the center of the discharge guide portion 122 bottom and stored in the compression container (10) It is defined as a tube coupler 124 is coupled to the discharge tube 125 for discharging the liquid contents, and a valve seat 127 for seating the check valve unit 130 is formed to protrude in a circular shape on the bottom surface . In addition, an air flow path 126 is formed at an outer side of the discharge guide part 122 so that external air introduced through the air hole 114 can be distributed into and out of the compression container 10. In the embodiment of the present invention, the air flow paths 126 are configured to face each other at 180 degree intervals. In addition, the liquid discharge port 123 of the discharge guide part 122 discharges the liquid contents discharged upward through the discharge tube 125 so as to be smoothly mixed with the air in the gas-liquid mixing chamber S1 described later. Branches are formed in plural in the radial direction from the bottom. In the embodiment of the present invention, the liquid outlet 123 is formed to be divided into two to face 180 degrees.

Check valve unit 130 is made of an elastic rubber material (silicon or NBR, etc.); 3, 4 and 7, the lower end is in close contact with the bottom upper surface of the contents discharge guide 120, the upper end is in close contact with the lower stepped jaw 112 of the cap body 110, the bubble discharge portion 113 A ring-shaped partition wall 131 partitioning the interior into a gas-liquid mixing chamber S1 and an air circulation space S2, and extends downward from the inner side of the partition wall 131 toward the center portion, and an end portion of the contents discharge guide ( It is elastically in close contact with the discharge guide portion 122 of the 120 and when the compressed container 10 is compressed when the air of the compressed container 10 exited through the air flow passage 126 to escape to the gas-liquid mixing chamber (S1). The first check valve 132 and the allowable selectively extends upward from the outside of the partition wall 131 toward the outside and the end is elastically in close contact with the outside of the stepped jaw 112 of the cap body 110 When the compression container 10 is compressed, the air hole 114 is closed, and when the compression container 10 is restored, the air hole 114 is opened. It is defined as a unit from the second check valve 133 that allows the inflow of air into the air distribution space (S2).

As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 8, the filtering member 140 is inserted into the bubble discharge part 113 (gas-liquid mixing chamber: S1) of the cap body 110 to be accommodated, and the upper and lower portions thereof are opened. Body 141 made of a cylindrical shape, and

mesh sieve

142, 143 provided to cover the upper and lower surfaces of the body 141. Accordingly, the filtering member 140 is discharged to the upper side while homogenizing the foam formed by mixing the liquid contents and air in the gas-liquid mixing chamber (S1).

On the other hand, the auxiliary cap 150, as shown in Figures 3 and 4 and 9, in the compressed foam generator 100 according to the present invention, as well as guide the discharge of the foam to the outside as well as a stopper (locking) role In parallel; The lower end portion is coupled to the bubble discharge portion 113 of the cap body 110 by a screw coupling method is possible to move up and down, and the bubble discharge portion 113 and the upper end of the cylindrical coupling portion 151 and While in communication, the foam nozzle part 152 extends in the horizontal direction and blows out to the outside, and extends downwardly from the upper surface (ceiling surface) of the cylindrical coupling part 151 to the screwing degree of the cylindrical coupling part 151. Accordingly, it is defined as a cylindrical blocking wall 153 that selectively allows communication between the bubble discharge portion 113 and the bubble nozzle portion 152. Accordingly, when the cylindrical coupling portion 151 is fastened by screw coupling from the foam discharge portion 113 to the lowest portion, the cylindrical blocking wall 153 completely closes the upper portion of the foam discharge portion 113 to prevent bubbles from being discharged. (See FIG. 12). On the other hand, in the state in which the cylindrical coupling portion 151 is raised upward so that the cylindrical blocking wall 153 is spaced apart from the upper portion of the bubble discharge portion 113, the bubble discharge portion 113 and the bubble nozzle portion 152 communicate with each other. Can be discharged.

Next, the operation of the bubble generator for the compression container according to the present invention and the effects thereof will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 10 to 12.

First, as shown in Figure 2, in the initial state of the bubble generator 100 for the compression container according to the present invention, the compressed container 10 filled with air with the liquid contents is maintained in its original state, the check valve unit 130 ), The first check valve unit 132 is in close contact with the discharge guide unit 122 of the contents discharge guide 120 with its elastic restoring force, and the second check valve unit 133 of the check valve unit 130 is also In close contact with the stepped jaw 112 of the cap main body 110 by its elastic restoring force, the air hole 114 is kept closed.

In this state, as shown in FIG. 10, when the user presses the pressing container 10 and compresses it (see arrow direction in FIG. 10), an internal pressure is generated, which causes pressurization of the air and liquid contents inside the pressing container 10. do. Therefore, a part of the liquid contents stored in the compression container 10 exits to the gas-liquid mixing chamber S1 through the discharge tube 125 and the liquid discharge port 123 (see the solid arrow direction). In addition, some of the air in the pressurized container 10 is discharged to the air distribution space (S2) through the air flow passage 126 while the pressurized air continues to close the second check valve unit 133 and the first The check valve part 132 exits to the gas-liquid mixing chamber S1 while opening it (refer to the dotted arrow direction).

In the gas-liquid mixing chamber (S1), bubbles are formed while the pressurized air and the liquid contents are mixed, and since the liquid contents come up while being dispersed through the plurality of liquid outlets 123, the mixture with the air is more smoothly made and immediately bubbled. Will change. Such bubbles are homogenized while passing through the filtering member 140, and the homogenized bubbles are ejected to the outside through the bubble nozzle part 152 of the auxiliary cap 150.

And, as shown in Figure 11, if the artificial force applied to the pressing container 10 is removed; The negative pressure is formed therein while restoring the original state by the elastic restoring force of the pressing container 10 itself (see arrow direction in FIG. 11). That is, when the distorted compression container 10 is restored and negative pressure is formed therein, the second check valve part 133 of the check valve unit 130 is opened momentarily so that external air flows into the air distribution space S2. Subsequently, the air introduced into the air distribution space S2 is introduced into the compression container 10 through the air distribution path 126. That is, the compressed container 10 in which a portion of the liquid contents is removed is filled with the outside air by the volume through the air hole 114 and the air flow passage 126 to maintain the compressed container 10 in its initial state. At this time, the first check valve 132 of the check valve unit 130 is in close contact with the discharge guide portion 122 during the compression container restoration process.

By repeating such a series of processes, the liquid contents contained in the compression container 10 can be ejected and used in the form of bubbles. That is, in the bubble generator 100 for the compression container according to the present invention by directly compressing the compression container 10 in which the contents are stored, the liquid contents are mixed with air through the internal pressure and discharged directly in the form of bubbles. In addition, even if the pressing container 10 is directly compressed with one hand, the contents are discharged in the form of bubbles, thereby improving its convenience of use.

On the other hand, as shown in Figure 12, by turning the auxiliary cap 150 is locked until the cylindrical blocking wall 153 is in close contact with the upper portion of the bubble discharge portion 113 (see the arrow direction in Figure 12); As the auxiliary cap 150 is slightly lowered, communication between the bubble discharge part 113 and the bubble nozzle part 152 is blocked. In such a state, the foam can not escape even when the pressing container 10 is pressed, so that it remains in the locked state. That is, since the stopper function can also be parallel through the cylindrical coupling portion 151 of the auxiliary cap 150 fastened by the screw coupling method, the product can be used more stably and leakage can be prevented even during distribution.

The present invention can be widely used in the "foam generator field for the compression vessel" that compresses the compression vessel and discharges the liquid contents with the air while mixing in the form of bubbles.
