Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to containers, specifically a condiment bottle capable of dispensing condiments in measured quantities. Background Technology
[0002] Seasonings are widely used in food preparation and cooking to enhance flavor; however, for health reasons, soy sauce should not be consumed in excess. Common seasonings, such as salt, pepper, MSG, cooking oil, and soy sauce, are dispensed directly from seasoning bottles, or, as disclosed in Chinese patent document CN215777617U, a seasoning bottle that uses a baffle plate and a dispensing port to adjust the size of the dispensing hole (orifice) for quantitative dispensing. While able-bodied people can confidently control the amount of seasoning they need, conventional seasoning bottles are simply unsuitable for visually impaired individuals who cannot visually measure the amount dispensed.
[0003] For liquid seasonings, such as cooking oil or soy sauce, in order to enable visually impaired people to dispense soy sauce in measured quantities, an oyster sauce bottle, as disclosed in Chinese patent document CN215157243U, is used. By installing an oil suction device on the bottle cap, the soy sauce is pumped out by pressing. Since the amount of liquid pumped each time is relatively quantitative, it is close to the purpose of measurable seasoning. However, because the soy sauce is sprayed under the pressure of the pump, visually impaired people cannot perceive the range (distance) of the liquid spray, which makes it impossible for the soy sauce to fall accurately onto the food, and may also cause splashing or waste. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned technical defects, this invention proposes a quantitative seasoning bottle that is convenient to control the quantity, easy to operate, and suitable for visually impaired people.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a quantitative seasoning bottle, comprising a bottle body for holding seasonings, the bottle body being sealed by a bottle cap, the bottle cap having an additional cavity, an appropriate amount of seasonings in the bottle body being transferred to the cavity for storage, and the seasonings being poured out from the cavity when the required amount is reached.
[0006] Preferably, the bottle cap has an internal chamber through which a pump body is installed; the pump body's nozzle is located in the chamber, and the pump body's conduit extends into the bottle body; the pump body pumps an appropriate amount of seasoning from the bottle body into the chamber for storage.
[0007] Preferably, the bottle cap has a window, and a flip-up button is hinged to the window. The inside of the button is set as a chamber for temporarily storing seasonings.
[0008] Preferably, a discharge nozzle extends from the side of the chamber.
[0009] Preferably, a pressure cap is provided at the bottle cap, and the pressure cap is integrated with the pump body.
[0010] Preferably, the surface of the button is provided with Braille friction particles.
[0011] Preferably, the bottle body and the bottle cap are attracted to each other by a magnetic strip.
[0012] By implementing the above technical solution, a chamber is set at the bottle cap, and the seasonings in the bottle are transferred to the chamber for storage. The chamber plays a temporary or intermediate storage function. Since the capacity of the chamber is fixed, the purpose of quantitative control can be achieved when the amount of seasoning stored in the chamber reaches the required amount. It is particularly suitable for visually impaired people to accurately grasp and obtain the required amount of seasoning without relying on visual identification. When using it, you only need to shake it once or use the pump pressure to make the seasonings enter the chamber of the button to complete the quantitative control, allowing visually impaired people to independently call for seasonings. The operation is convenient and quick. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Figure 5 This is an exploded view of the quantitative seasoning bottle of the second embodiment. Detailed Implementation
[0018] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0019] Example 1: See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pre-measured seasoning bottle mainly consists of a bottle body 1, a cap 2, and a button 3. The bottle body 1 closes to the cap 2. Magnetic strips 6 are provided along the edges of the bottle body 1 and the cap 2 to facilitate visually impaired people in opening the seasoning bottle to add seasonings and to easily close the cap back onto the bottle body.
[0020] A button 3 is hinged to a window 2.1 on the bottle cap 2. The interior of the button 3 is a chamber 3.1 with an opening for storing a measured amount of seasoning. The surface of the button 3 is provided with Braille friction marks 3.2, which allow visually impaired individuals to sense the pressing position and distinguish the container. A pin 3.3 is located on the side of the button 3, and the button 3 is hinged to the window 2.1 of the bottle cap 2 via the pin 3.3.
[0021] The procedure for dispensing a measured amount of seasoning using the measuring seasoning bottle is as follows: First, shake the entire bottle to fill the chamber of button 3 with seasoning, thus achieving the purpose of measuring and storing the seasoning. Then, as... Figure 3 As shown, tilt or invert the entire bottle momentarily, press the button, causing it to flip 20-30 degrees and expose the opening. The seasoning will then pour out from the chamber inside the button. At this time, the bottom of the button still blocks the window, preventing the seasoning from leaking out of the bottle.
[0022] Example 2: See Figure 4 and Figure 5 The dispenser for measuring seasonings mainly consists of a bottle body 1, a cap 2, a pump body 4, and a pressure cap 5. The outer surface of the bottle body has textures that allow visually impaired people to easily identify seasonings based on different shapes and textures. The cap 2 has an open chamber 2.1 inside, and a dispensing nozzle 2.4 extends from the side of the chamber 2.1, communicating with the chamber 2.1. The top of the cap 2 has a groove 2.3 for accommodating the pressure cap 5.
[0023] The pump body 4 is provided with a conduit 4.2, which connects to the spray nozzle 4.1. The pump body 4 is connected to a pressure cap 5, which covers the pump body 4. The pump body 4 is housed inside the chamber 3.1, and the conduit 4.2 extends out of the chamber 3.1 and into the bottle body. The structure of the pump body is prior art. Reference can be made to the pressure cap described in Chinese patent document CN209492870U, the pump body described in Chinese patent document CN214398007U, the pump body described in Chinese patent document CN215016495U, and the press pump described in Chinese patent document CN213075481U.
[0024] The procedure for dispensing a measured amount of soy sauce using a measuring seasoning bottle is as follows: Press the cap 5 once or multiple times. The pump 4 pushes the soy sauce from the bottle body 1 upwards through the conduit 4.2 to the spray nozzle 4.1, where it is temporarily stored in the chamber 3.1. Once the desired amount of seasoning is reached, tilt the entire bottle, and the soy sauce will pour out from the dispensing spout 2.4. Visually impaired consumers can dispense a consistent amount by pressing the cap. Each press dispenses the same amount, and the liquid is temporarily stored in the chamber, allowing visually impaired consumers to control the amount of seasoning based on the number of presses. This quantitative control method enables visually impaired consumers to use the seasoning bottle just like able-bodied consumers.
[0025] It should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This way of describing the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
