Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a supply pipe, and particularly to a supply pipe capable of adjusting the formula ratio in stages. Background Art

[0002] Nowadays, there are quite diverse beauty and skincare products. Beauty and skincare products may offer multiple formulas, such as those focusing on whitening, moisturizing, firming and wrinkle resistance.

[0003] Users may hope to adjust the proportion of various beauty formulas according to different skin conditions. For example, when feeling dry skin, increase the moisturizing formula; if recently tanned, increase the proportion of the whitening formula. However, the operation mode of having users separately take out one formula from different bottles or jars and then mix them is not convenient, nor does it conform to the purchasing habits of most consumers, and it cannot ensure that the dispensing ratio of manually squeezing each bottle / tube is consistent each time. Generally, users do not tend to purchase precise liquid dispensing pump products or electronic instruments.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide multiple formulas in a manually squeezed supply pipe and provide precise staged formula adjustment for users to easily select and dispense under the premise of conforming to consumers' usage habits is the current problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to solve various problems of existing supply pipes and propose a supply pipe capable of adjusting the formula ratio in stages.

[0006] To achieve the above and other purposes, the present invention proposes a supply pipe capable of adjusting the formula ratio in stages, which includes: a main pipe having a main space and an outlet; a first pipe body disposed in the main space, the first pipe body having a first fluid space; a second pipe body disposed in the main space, the second pipe body having a second fluid space; a proportioning member disposed in the main space, the proportioning member having a plurality of through holes on the cross-section of the main pipe, the plurality of through holes including at least two first communication ports and at least two second communication ports, the at least two first communication ports connecting the first fluid space and the outlet, and the at least two second communication ports connecting the second fluid space and the outlet; and a masking member configured to rotatably block at least one of the plurality of through holes.

[0007] Optionally, the masking member is configured to rotatably block two of the plurality of through holes.

[0008] Optionally, the plurality of through holes is more than five, and the masking member is configured to rotatably block two of the plurality of through holes.

[0009] Optionally, the number of the plurality of through holes is N + 3, and the mask member is configured to rotatably block N - 1 of the plurality of through holes, where N is a positive integer greater than 3.

[0010] Optionally, the number of the first communication ports is four, the number of the second communication ports is three, and the mask member is configured to rotatably block at least three of the plurality of through holes.

[0011] Optionally, the number of the first communication ports is four, the number of the second communication ports is three, and the mask member is configured to rotatably block four of the plurality of through holes.

[0012] Optionally, the plurality of through holes are equiangularly distributed.

[0013] Optionally, the projection of the mask member on the cross-section of the main pipe is a sector, a semi-circle, a crescent shape, or a circle with partial hollowing.

[0014] Optionally, the projection of the mask member on the cross-section of the main pipe is a double-sector shape.

[0048] In order to fully understand the present invention, through the following specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the present invention will be described in detail. Those skilled in the art can understand the purpose, features and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. It should be noted that the present invention can be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified and changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the inventive point of the present invention. In addition, the drawings of the present invention are only simple schematic illustrations and are not drawn according to actual dimensions. The following embodiments will further describe the relevant technical content of the present invention in detail, but the disclosed content is not intended to limit the claims of the present invention. The description is as follows:

[0049] As Figure 1 shown, the supply pipe 100 with a phase-adjustable formulation ratio according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes: a main pipe 3, a first pipe body 1, a second pipe body 2, a proportioning member 4 and a mask member 5.

[0050] The main pipe 3 has a total space S and an outlet 31. In this embodiment, the main pipe 3 is a flexible pipe, and the user can manually squeeze the pipe wall to directly extrude the content from the outlet 31. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the user can apply force in other ways to take out the content from the outlet 31, such as pressing a pump to spray the content from the outlet 31 by introducing air flow; or rotating a screw extending into the total space S from the outside, and the screw converts the rotational force applied by the user into a linear force for squeezing the total space S, and the content is extruded to the outlet 31.

[0051] The first pipe body 1 is arranged in the total space S. The first pipe body 1 has a first fluid space S1 for storing the first type of content. The output port of the first pipe body 1 also leads to the outlet 31.

[0052] The second tube body 2 is also disposed in the total space S. The second tube body 2 has a second fluid space S2 for storing the second type of content. The outlet of the second tube body 2 also leads to the outlet 31. In other words, the supply tube 100 with adjustable formulation ratio in stages of the present invention actually has a structure of tube-in-tube to provide multiple types of content in one tube, and the content is stored independently. Although only the first tube body 1 and the second tube body 2 are taken as examples in this embodiment, actually the main tube 3 can include more other tube bodies to provide various types of content and store them separately and independently from each other.

[0053] The proportioning member 4 is disposed in the total space S. The proportioning member 4 is provided with a plurality of through holes 41 on the cross section of the main tube 3. These plurality of through holes 41 can be further subdivided into a first communication port 411 and a second communication port 412. The first communication port 411 refers to the communication port for communicating the first fluid space S1 and the outlet 31, and the second communication port 412 refers to the communication port for communicating the second fluid space S2 and the outlet 31. The minimum number of the first communication port 411 and the second communication port 412 is at least two each. If a third tube body, a fourth tube body, etc. are further disposed in the main tube 3, the proportioning member 4 will correspondingly add a third communication port for communicating the third fluid space and the outlet 31, a fourth communication port for communicating the fourth fluid space and the outlet 31, and so on.

[0054] The masking member 5 is configured to rotatably block at least one of the plurality of through holes 41.

[0055] Next, it will be described how to achieve the effect of adjusting the formulation ratio in stages by rotating the masking member 5. For convenience, the cross-sectional areas of the respective through holes 41 in each embodiment are equal. However, in other embodiments, the cross-sectional areas of the respective through holes 41 can also be varied and adjusted as required.

[0056] In this embodiment, seven through holes 41 (including four first communication ports 411 and three second communication ports 412) are taken as an example. As Figures 6A to 6D shown, the masking member 5 blocks a total of four through holes 41, and the user can manually rotate the masking member 5 to determine which of the through holes 41 to block. Or, conversely, the user determines which of the through holes 41 to expose by rotating the masking member 5.

[0057] In Figure 6A , the masking member 5 exposes three first communication ports 411 and blocks the other through holes 41 (one first communication port 411 and three second communication ports 412). Therefore, when the user squeezes the main tube 3, 100% of the first type of content can be obtained.

[0058] In Figure 6BIn [description], the mask member 5 exposes two first communication ports 411 and one second communication port 412, and shields the other through holes 41. Therefore, when the user squeezes the main pipe 3, the combined formula ratio of the first type of content and the second type of content that can be obtained is two to one.

[0059] In Figure 6C In [description], the mask member 5 exposes one first communication port 411 and two second communication ports 412, and shields the other through holes 41. Therefore, when the user squeezes the main pipe 3, the combined formula ratio of the first type of content and the second type of content that can be obtained is one to two.

[0060] In Figure 6D In [description], the mask member 5 exposes three second communication ports 412 and shields the other through holes 41. Therefore, when the user squeezes the main pipe 3, 100% of the second type of content can be obtained.

[0061] As can be seen from the above, as long as the user rotates the mask member 5 to select to shield some of the through holes and expose some of the first communication ports 411 and / or second communication ports 412, specific ratio of content can be obtained according to needs or mood, and this ratio is phased and adjustable. The supply pipe 100 with a phased adjustable formula ratio of the present invention is not only simple to operate but also can maintain accurate ratio, and can meet the user's demand for adjusting the formula ratio without any complicated and expensive electronic liquid supply components or pumps.

[0062] The first embodiment of the present invention is a situation with more variations. The present invention also presents a more basic second embodiment. As Figure 2 shown, the through hole 41 includes two first communication ports 411 and two second communication ports 412, and the mask member 5 is configured to rotatably shield one of the multiple through holes 41. When the mask member 5 shields one first communication port 411, the combined formula ratio of the first type of content and the second type of content that can be obtained when the user squeezes the main pipe 3 is one to two; when the mask member 5 is changed to shield one second communication port 412, the combined formula ratio of the first type of content and the second type of content that can be obtained when the user squeezes the main pipe 3 is two to one. Therefore, the formula ratio can also be adjusted phasedly, but with fewer variations.

[0063] As Figure 3As shown in the figure, the present invention further provides a third embodiment similar to the second embodiment, with the difference that the masking member 5 is configured to rotatably block two of the plurality of through holes 41. When the masking member 5 covers the two first communication ports 411, the user can obtain 100% of the second type of content by squeezing the main pipe 3; when the masking member 5 covers the two second communication ports 412, the user can obtain 100% of the first type of content by squeezing the main pipe 3; when the masking member 5 covers one first communication port 411 and one second communication port 412, the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content obtained by the user squeezing the main pipe 3 is one to one.

[0064] The present invention further provides a more advanced fourth embodiment. As Figure 4 shown, the through holes 41 include three first communication ports 411 and two second communication ports 412, and the masking member 5 is configured to rotatably block two of the plurality of through holes 41. According to the masking method of the masking member 5, three stage changes can be obtained: "100% of the first type of content", "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is two to one", and "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is one to two".

[0065] The present invention further provides a more advanced fifth embodiment. As Figure 5 shown, the through holes 41 include three first communication ports 411 and three second communication ports 412, and the masking member 5 is configured to rotatably block two of the plurality of through holes 41. According to the masking method of the masking member 5, three stage changes can be obtained: "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is one to three", "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is one to one", and "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is three to one".

[0066] If the first embodiment is slightly changed to have the same four first communication ports 411 and three second communication ports 412, and the masking member 5 is changed to block three of the through holes 41, then four stage changes can be obtained: "100% of the first type of content", "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is three to one", "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is one to one", and "the combined formula ratio of the first type of content to the second type of content is one to three".

[0067] Therefore, according to the variations of the above-mentioned fifth embodiment and the first embodiment, if more than N segments of variations are required, it can be summarized as follows: The number of the plurality of through holes 41 is set to N + 3, and the mask member 5 is configured to rotatably block N - 1 of the plurality of through holes 41, then N segments of variations can be obtained, where N is a positive integer greater than or equal to 3. For example, in the case of eight through holes 41, the mask member 5 is configured to rotatably block four of the plurality of through holes 41, and five-stage variations can be achieved. Of course, if the difference in the number of the first communication ports 411 and the second communication ports 412 is too large, it may not be possible to achieve N segments of variations (for example, the number of one of the communication ports is much less than N), so the number of the first communication ports 411 and the second communication ports 412 must be appropriately adjusted.

[0068] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the plurality of through holes 41 are equally angularly distributed on the cross-section of the main pipe 3. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the through holes 41 may not be equally angularly distributed as needed. For example, the first communication ports 411 and the second communication ports 412 are each densely distributed.

[0069] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 6D shown, the projection of the mask member 5 on the cross-section of the main pipe 3 may be a sector, a semi-circle, or a crescent shape. Among them, the crescent shape, as Figure 1 and Figure 6D shown, is a shape slightly larger than a semi-circle, and the chord it cuts is shorter than the diameter, so the area of the mask member 5 is larger than that of a semi-circle. Of course, the shape of the mask member 5 may also be a shape slightly smaller than a semi-circle, and the chord it cuts is longer than the diameter, so the area of the mask member 5 is smaller than that of a semi-circle.

[0070] As Figure 7A and Figure 7B shown, the projection of the mask member 5 on the cross-section of the main pipe 3 may also be a circular shape with partial hollowing. The mask members of these shapes are all suitable for rotating 360 degrees or an angle greater than 180 degrees. The partial hollowing of the mask member 5 can be determined according to the configuration of the through holes 41.

[0071] As Figure 7C shown, the projection of the mask member 5 on the cross-section of the main pipe 3 may also be a double-sector shape. The double-sector shape can also be regarded as a circular shape with partial hollowing. The difference is that the double-sector shape has symmetry and is more suitable for rotating within 180 degrees. Or an asymmetric double-sector shape rotates within 180 degrees to respectively control the shielding quantity of the first communication ports 411 and the second communication ports 412.

[0072] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as Figure 8As shown, a bump 51 is provided at the contact position between the mask member 5 and the main pipe 3. The main pipe 3 is provided with a plurality of grooves 32 for receiving the bump 51. The bump 51 can be designed to protrude beyond the inner diameter of the main pipe 3. Therefore, the user must apply a certain force to force the elastic deformation of the bump 51 to rotate the mask member 5, and the bump 51 tends to be received in the groove 32. The number and design position of the grooves 32 can match the rotation stage of the mask member 5, giving the user a feeling of segmented operation. With the scale or description on the appearance, it is easier for the user to understand how to rotate the mask member 5 to obtain the desired formula ratio.

[0073] However, the present invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the mask member 5 can also be made of a transparent material, such as transparent polyvinyl chloride. The user observes the internal proportioning member 4 through the transparent mask member 5 to determine how to rotate the mask member 5 to a specific position to obtain the desired formula ratio.

[0074] The present invention has been disclosed above in preferred embodiments. However, those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that all equivalent changes and substitutions to the embodiments should be considered as covered within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the content scope defined by the claims.
