Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of milk powder box technology, and more particularly to a quantitative milk powder box. Background Technology

[0002] When going out with infants and young children, carrying large bags of formula not only takes up space, but also makes the formula more susceptible to contamination from germs when it comes into contact with the external environment during preparation. In addition, the formula is easy to spill and contaminate when using a spoon to scoop it out. Therefore, a measured formula container can solve the above problems.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN209582471U discloses a portable quantitative milk powder box, including a box body and a quantitative component. The box body has a powder storage chamber and a quantitative milk powder chamber. The quantitative component includes a valve stem, which is slidably disposed in the powder storage chamber. The lower end of the valve stem is provided with a powder dispensing valve and a powder dispensing valve. The lower end of the quantitative milk powder chamber narrows to form a first powder stop ring, and the upper end of the quantitative milk powder chamber narrows to form a second powder stop ring. The powder dispensing valve can be movably sealed with the first powder stop ring, and the powder dispensing valve can be movably sealed with the second powder stop ring. The distance between the first and second powder stop rings is less than or equal to the distance between the powder dispensing valve and the powder dispensing valve. This invention solves the technical problems of inability to dispense milk powder in a precise quantity and milk powder spillage.

[0004] In actual use, because milk powder is very fine, has a low specific gravity and poor flowability, it usually falls in clumps, causing the milk powder to bulge in the middle or bridge and not fall easily. The above-mentioned quantitative milk powder box cannot flatten the milk powder in the middle when in use, nor can it avoid bridging. In addition, it cannot adjust the amount of powder dispensed according to needs. When used by infants of different sizes, it cannot guarantee the weight of powder dispensed each time, making it inconvenient to use. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the above problems by providing a quantitative powder box that can prevent milk powder from coming into contact with the external environment during use, improve the hygiene and safety performance of milk powder preparation, and allow for quantitative powder dispensing with adjustable dispensing amount.

[0024] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1-6 A milk powder dispenser includes a milk powder dispenser 1 and a dispensing dispenser 2. One end of the milk powder dispenser 1 has a powder inlet cap 3. The outer walls of the milk powder dispenser 1 and the dispensing dispenser 2 are connected by a hinge 5. A sealing ring is provided at the connection between the milk powder dispenser 1 and the dispensing dispenser 2 to prevent air circulation. A leveling and separating mechanism is provided at the end of the milk powder dispenser 1 away from the powder inlet cap 3. The leveling and separating mechanism controls the connection and closure between the milk powder dispenser 1 and the dispensing dispenser 2. The dispensing dispenser 2 has a movable dispensing piston 22 inside. Under normal conditions, the dispensing piston 22 is sealed by a powder channel plug 42. The milk powder is poured into the milk powder box 1 and then closed by the powder inlet cap 3. The scraping and separating mechanism is then activated to connect the milk powder box 1 with the dispensing box 2. After connection, the milk powder falls into the dispensing piston 22. Since the dispensing piston 22 is blocked by the powder channel plug 42, the dispensing milk powder can be poured out after removing the powder channel plug 42. In addition, the milk powder is always in the milk powder box 1. During the preparation process, the milk powder is poured directly into the bottle from the powder channel of the dispensing piston without contact with the outside, which avoids the milk powder being infected by pathogens during preparation and improves the hygiene and safety of infant feeding.

[0026] Specifically, the leveling and separating mechanism includes a bracket 17, a horizontal slide rail 18, a vertical slide rail 141, two partition plates 15, a partition plate shaft 14, a lifting column 12, a sealing column 13, and a limiting shaft 16. The lifting column 12 is L-shaped and located inside the sealing column 13. The top of the sealing column 13 is sealed, and a sealing ring is provided at the bottom. The sealing ring prevents milk powder from entering the sealing column. The outer wall of the milk powder box 1 is provided with a groove 11. One end of the lifting column 12 extends outward through the milk powder box 1 at the groove 11. One end is vertically connected to the partition plate shaft 14, and two partition plates 15 are symmetrically hinged on the partition plate shaft 14. A limiting shaft 16 is located below the partition plates 15. A horizontal slide rail 18 is provided on the bracket 17, and the limiting shaft 16 is located inside the horizontal slide rail 18. The vertical slide rail is located on the side away from the lifting column 12. The partition plate shaft 14 moves up and down along the vertical slide rail 141. The moving up and down of the lifting column 12 causes the two partition plates 15 to unfold or retract within the bracket 17. When the two partition plates are unfolded, the milk powder box is sealed.

[0027] The milk powder box 1 can be in the shape of a frustum, a semicircle, or a 3 / 4 circle, as long as one side of the milk powder box 1 is a vertical plane. The sealing column 13 and the sliding groove 11 are set on this vertical plane. When placed, the whole box is upside down, with the milk powder box 1 at the bottom, which facilitates stable placement.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, milk powder container 1 is located at the bottom; this state is for storing milk powder and allowing it to settle. Figure 2As shown, the milk powder container 1 is located at the top, in the powder dispensing state. During the dispensing process, after the lifting column 12 moves upward, the partition plate shaft 14 will move along the vertical slide. At this time, the two partition plates 15 will come together, connecting the milk powder container 1 and the dispensing box 2. The partition plates 15 do not act as a barrier, allowing the milk powder in the upper milk powder container 1 to fall downward. After the milk powder falls downward, the lifting column 12 moves downward, and the partition plates 15 will expand to both sides along the horizontal slide 18 via the limiting shaft 16. At this time, the two partition plates 15 are unfolded within the bracket, simultaneously dispensing the milk powder. Box 1 and dispensing box 2 are separated; during the unfolding of the two partition plates 15, the limiting shaft 16 below the partition plates can not only isolate the milk powder, but also smooth the surface of the milk powder, improve the accuracy of dispensing the milk powder, and prevent the milk powder from piling up and being taken out in excess; that is, the milk powder usually falls in a pile, and after falling, the middle bulges up. When the limiting shaft 16 slides to both sides, it can scrape the excess milk powder that has bulged up. The scraped milk powder is put back into the milk powder box 1 for the next use. In this way, the lifting column 12 can ensure that the amount of milk powder taken out each time is consistent, which meets the needs of infant formula preparation and drinking.

[0029] In this invention, the upper opening of the metering piston 22 is provided with an inverted trapezoidal powder storage chamber 221. The metering piston 22 has a powder channel 222 along its height direction, which communicates with the powder storage chamber 221. The metering piston 22 is located inside the threaded sleeve 21, and the metering piston 22 and the threaded sleeve 21 are connected by a threaded engagement. The bottom of the threaded sleeve 21 is provided with a powder outlet 211, which extends outward through the metering box 2. The bottom circular hole of the metering box 2 is provided with an annular track, and the threaded sleeve 21 rotates within the metering box 2 via the annular track. In addition, a spiral fixing sleeve 23 is provided around the powder outlet 211, and the spiral fixing sleeve 23 is fixed to the periphery of the powder outlet 211 by screws. That is, after rotating the spiral fixing sleeve 23, the threaded sleeve 21 will rotate within the metering box 2. Since the threaded sleeve 21 and the metering piston 22 are connected by a thread, the metering piston 22 will move up and down within the metering box via the thread when the threaded sleeve 21 rotates.

[0030] When in use, the milk powder falls from the milk powder box 1 into the powder storage chamber 221 and the powder channel 222. Since the powder channel 222 is blocked by the powder channel plug 42 and the blocking position is unique, when the metering piston 22 moves upward, the depth of the powder channel 222 increases, thereby increasing the amount of milk powder stored. Similarly, when the metering piston 22 moves downward, the depth of the powder channel 222 shortens, thus reducing the amount of milk powder stored. In other words, twisting the screw fixing sleeve 23 controls the up and down movement of the metering piston 22, the purpose of which is to adjust the amount of milk powder dispensed, so as to make it easier to dispense different weights of milk powder for infants of different sizes.

[0031] Furthermore, the bottom of the powder channel plug 42 is provided with a channel handle 41, and the end of the channel handle 41 is provided with a powder outlet cap 4. The powder channel plug 42, the channel handle 41, and the powder outlet cap 4 are integrated. The powder channel plug 42 is plugged into and detached from the metering piston 22 at the powder channel 222. After the milk powder falls into the powder storage chamber 221 and the powder channel 222, hold the powder outlet cap 4 and pull out the powder channel plug 42. Then, the milk powder in the powder channel 222 can be directly poured into the baby bottle. The entire powder dispensing process does not come into contact with the external environment, thus improving the hygiene and safety performance of the milk powder.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the cross-section of the powder channel 222 can be any one of rectangular, circular, or elliptical shapes, and the cross-section of the powder channel plug 42 can be consistent with the cross-section of the powder channel 222, so as to seal and block the powder channel 222.

[0033] This invention, a quantitative powder dispenser, prevents milk powder from contacting the external environment during use, improving the hygiene and safety of preparing formula for infants. In addition, it can dispense powder in precise quantities. When dispensing powder, two partitions can flatten the milk powder pile and remove any raised parts on the surface, satisfying the requirement of quantitative dispensing while ensuring the accuracy of the powder weight. Furthermore, the dispensing capacity can be adjusted according to the different ages of infants, further increasing the quantitative dispensing capacity to meet the needs of infants.

[0034] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
