Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a source pump structure with an anti-overflow function. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, shampoos, conditioners, detergents, cosmetics, or liquid or gel-like substances such as soy sauce, vinegar, and ketchup are usually stored in containers of a certain size and shape. These containers are typically equipped with pumping devices to pump the contents into the container's lid for easy storage.

[0003] Reference Figure 1 The conventional pumping device is equipped with a nozzle, a pump connected to a pump pipe, and a cap screwed onto the outlet of the receiving container (when not visible). A helical spring and a ball valve are embedded in the sensing tube. Therefore, when the user presses the pump in the direction of the arrow, the liquid substance stored in the storage container rises through the air supply pipe, sensing tube, and pump pipe, and is then discharged to the outside through the nozzle.

[0004] In this situation, in addition to the source being discharged from the nozzle as expected, there is also the problem of the source falling off at the nozzle tip and contaminating the surrounding area.

[0005] Furthermore, if conventional pumping devices are used to pump liquid substances stored in storage containers, contamination of the interior of the storage containers is always a problem. In addition, the internal cleaning process is also challenging.

[0011] (Patent Document 4) KR 20-0410138Y1 Summary of the Invention

[0012] The problem that the invention aims to solve

[0013] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems and aims to provide a pump structure that can prevent surrounding pollution even if the source at the nozzle end is discharged as expected and the source at the nozzle end is removed.

[0014] In addition, we hope to provide a pump structure that is easy to retract internally.

[0015] means for solving problems

[0016] The source pump structure with anti-overflow function of the present invention is characterized in that fluid is contained in a storage device, a channel device is inserted through an opening at the top of the storage device for fixing the channel device to a coupling device of the storage device and is screwed to the opening of the storage device, a nozzle device discharges outward when fluid passes through the channel device, a pumping device allows fluid contained in the storage device to pass through the channel device, and the pumping device discharges the fluid remaining at the end of the nozzle device to the end of the nozzle device.

[0017] Next, the storage device consists of a container with a defined internal space to contain fluid. On the upper surface of the storage device, a main hole for inserting the channel device and a sub-hole for inserting the support device are formed. The support device is disposed at the lower part of the nozzle device. The hopper is installed in the sinkhole by a sinkhole formed by a concave funnel shape at the center of the hopper and a recovery pipe installed through the sub-hole formed in the storage device. The hopper consists of a shape that increases in height along the diameter direction from the sinkhole and slopes towards the ground at a predetermined angle, and a shape that increases in height along the diameter direction from the first slope, but the angle of the ground is greater than that of the first slope.

[0018] Next, a check valve is installed on one side of the recovery pipe, allowing fluid to flow only from the drain hole towards the storage device. Fluid deviating from the end of the nozzle device passes through the drain hole but stagnates in the recovery pipe through the check valve. The pumping device returns upward via a helical spring, reducing the internal pressure of the storage device. As the internal pressure of the storage device decreases, the check valve opens, and the stagnant fluid in the recovery pipe is transferred to the storage instrument.

[0019] Furthermore, the hopper also includes a vertical surface extending from the second ramp, the vertical surface being perpendicular to the ground, and the outer surface of the vertical surface having external threads. The diameter of the sinkhole is the same as the diameter of the recovery pipe, and the diameters of the sinkhole and the collection pipe are formed to be longer than the diameter of the channel device by a predetermined length. The support device also includes a sealing cap for sealing the storage device opened from the sinkhole of the hopper, the inner diameter of which is the same as the outer diameter of the vertical surface, and the inner and outer circumferential surfaces are intended to be tightened with external threads. The sealing cap with internal threads has internal threads to be tightened on the upper part of the cap and the cap. However, the channel device that fixes the channel device to the storage device includes a sealing device. The coupling is installed in the sealing hole and the main hole respectively. The sealing cap is installed on the hopper. The storage device forms a sealed state. The channel device is inserted into the recovery pipe through the sealing hole and the drain hole in sequence. Due to the downward movement of the pumping device, the pressure resistance of the space formed by the sealing cap and the hopper is increased. Therefore, the check valve is opened to transfer the stagnant fluid in the channel device to the storage device.

[0020] Next, the support device also includes a spray cleaning device for cleaning by spraying cleaning fluid inside the storage device. The spray cleaning device is made of rubber material, formed to a predetermined length, with one end connected to the recovery pipe, and the other end including a tube sealed with a knot and a plurality of micropores formed inside the tube. The contact point is where one end of the tube is connected to the recovery pipe and extends perpendicularly toward the bottom surface of the storage device. The contact point is defined as the starting point for measuring the tube length, the position of the knot is defined as the ending point for measuring the length, and the length from the starting point to the ending point is defined as the spray length range. The jet length range is formed to be the same length as the longest side of the bottom surface of the storage device. When fluid is pumped onto the tube at a predetermined pressure, the tube is inflated, and the cleaning fluid injected into the hopper is sprayed in all directions through the micropores.

[0021] Invention Effects

[0022] The overflow-proof source pump structure of the present invention can provide an overflow-proof function in the source pump structure because it is acceptable for fluid remaining at the end of the nozzle device to deviate from the end of the nozzle device.

[0023] Next, the fluid that deviates from the end of the nozzle device can be collected at the center along the second and first ramps and recycled to the storage device through the drain hole so that it can be reused and spillage is prevented.

[0024] Secondly, its characteristic is that not only can the fluid be discharged to the nozzle device through the pumping device, but the fluid separated from the end of the nozzle device can then be automatically restored to the storage device by the elastic force provided by the helical spring provided in the pumping device.

[0025] Next, the couplings are installed in the sealing hole and the main hole respectively, and the sealing cover is installed on the hopper to form a sealed storage device. After passing through the sealing hole and the drain hole in sequence, the channel device is inserted into the inside of the recovery pipe. As the pumping device moves downward, the internal pressure of the space formed by the airtight cover and the hopper increases, and the check valve is opened to transfer the stagnant fluid in the channel device to the storage device.

[0026] Secondly, its advantage is that it can use a pumping device to pump fluids such as sauces as a means of evenly spraying the cleaning solution into the storage vehicle. Attached Figure Description

[0082] Figure 1 The conventional source pump structure is shown.

[0083] Figure 2 An embodiment of a source pump structure with splash-proof function according to the present invention is shown.

[0084] Figure 3 Another embodiment of the source pump structure with splash-proof function according to the present invention is shown.

[0085] Figure 4 Showing the installation in Figure 3 An airtight cover on a vertical surface.

[0086] Figure 5 Showing Figure 3 The state of the vertical surface with an airtight cover.

[0087] Figure 6 The spray cleaning device is equipped with, for example Figure 5 The condition of the channel device shown.

[0088] See Figure 1 The source pump structure with anti-overflow function according to the present invention may include a storage device 100, a channel device 200, a coupling device 300, a nozzle device 400, and a pumping device 500.

[0089] The channel device 200 may include a feed pipe 210, a sensing tube 220, and a pump pipe 230.

[0090] The pumping device 500 may include a ball valve 510, a helical spring 520, and a pusher portion 530.

[0091] When the user applies downward pressure to push part 530, the channel means that 200 can move downward together.

[0092] As the pusher 530 moves downward, the internal volume of the sensing tube 220 decreases, the internal pressure increases, the ball valve 510 opens, and the fluid contained in the storage device 100 can be drawn into the channel device 200 through the pressure difference.

[0093] When the pressure applied by the user to the push part 530 is removed, the coil spring 520 can return upward.

[0094] The coupling assembly 300 may include a threaded cap 310.

[0095] An opening can be formed in the cover 310, through which the channel device 200 can pass.

[0096] The cover 310 is threadedly connected to the opening of the storage device 100, and the channel device 200 can be fixed to the storage device 100.

[0097] The storage device 100, channel device 200, coupling device 300, nozzle device 400 and pumping device 500 may be configured as described above.

[0098] See Figure 2 The source pump structure with anti-overflow function according to the present invention may further include a support device 1000.

[0099] The support device 1000 is designed to contain fluid remaining at the end of the nozzle device 400, which is offset from the end of the nozzle device 400.

[0100] With the above configuration, it is acceptable for residual fluid at the end of the nozzle device 400 to deviate from the end of the nozzle device 400, and the source pump structure can provide an anti-overflow function.

[0101] refer to Figure 2 The storage device 100 may consist of a container with a defined internal space to hold fluid.

[0102] On the upper surface of the storage device 100, a main hole 110 for inserting the channel device 200 and a sub-hole 120 for inserting the support device 1000 can be formed.

[0103] The support device 1000 may include a configuration of a hopper 1100, a sinkhole 1200, and a recovery pipe 1300.

[0104] The hopper 1100 is located at the lower part of the nozzle device 400, and the middle part 0 can be composed of a concave funnel shape.

[0105] Sinkhole 1200 can be formed by penetrating hopper 1100 through the center of hopper 1100.

[0106] The recovery pipe 1300 is installed at the lower part of the sinkhole 1200 and can be installed by penetrating the sub-hole 120 formed at the storage device 100.

[0107] Here, the hopper 1100 can be divided into a first ramp 1110 and a second ramp 1120.

[0108] The first slope 1110 consists of a shape that increases in height along the diameter direction from the sinkhole 1200 and slopes to the ground at a certain angle.

[0109] The second slope 1120 is composed of a form that increases in height along the diameter of the first slope 1110, but the angle at which it forms the ground is greater than the predetermined angle of the first slope 1110.

[0110] With the above configuration, the fluid 400 released from the nozzle end is collected in the center through the sinkhole 1200 along the second slope 1120 and the first slope 1110 to prevent overflow and for reuse.

[0111] refer to Figure 2 The check valve 1500 can be installed on one side of the recovery pipe 1300 to allow fluid to flow from the sinkhole 1200 to the storage device 100.

[0112] Fluid deviating from the nozzle tip passes through sinkhole 1200, but check valve 1500 may get stuck in recovery pipe 1300.

[0113] The pumping device 500 can return upward via the helical spring 520 to reduce the internal pressure of the storage device 100.

[0114] As the internal pressure of the storage device 100 decreases, the check valve 1500 is opened, allowing the fluid stagnation in the recovery pipe 1300 to be transferred to the storage device 100.

[0115] With the above configuration, not only can the fluid from the pumping device 500 be discharged to the nozzle device 400, but also the fluid that has deviated from the end of the nozzle device 400 can be restored to the storage device 100 by the elastic force provided by the helical spring 520 provided in the pumping device 500.

[0116] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The hopper 1100 may also include an upright surface 1130 formed by extending from the second ramp 1120.

[0117] Vertical plane 1130 can be arranged perpendicular to the ground.

[0118] External threads 1131 can be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the vertical face 1130.

[0119] The diameter of the sinkhole 1200 and the diameter of the recovery pipe 1300 can be made to be the same.

[0120] The diameter of the sinkhole 1200 and the diameter of the recovery pipe 1300 can be made to be longer than the diameter of the channel device 200.

[0121] The support device 1000 may also include an airtight cover 1400 for sealing the storage device 100 that is opened from the sinkhole 1200 of the hopper 1100.

[0122] A sealing cover plate 1400 is formed, wherein the length of the inner diameter is equal to the length of the outer diameter of the vertical surface 1130, the internal thread 1430 is provided with an external thread 1131, the inner and outer peripheral surfaces are provided with internal threads 1430, the cover plate 1420 is provided on the upper part of the cover plate 1420, but the channel device 200 is fixed on the storage device 100, and the sealing hole 1410 for installing the coupling device 300 can be included in the configuration.

[0123] The coupling device 300 is installed in the sealing hole 1410 and the main hole 110 respectively, and the sealing cover 1400 is installed on the hopper 1100, so that the storage device 100 can be formed in a sealed state.

[0124] The channel device 200 can be inserted into the interior of the recovery tube 1300 by passing through the sealing hole 1410 and the sinkhole 1200 in sequence.

[0125] As the pumping device 500 moves downward, the internal pressure of the space formed by the closed cover 1400 and the hopper 1100 increases, the check valve 1500 opens, and the stagnant fluid 200 in the channel is transferred to the storage device 100.

[0126] With the above configuration, the coupling device 300 is installed in the sealing hole 1410 and the main hole 110 respectively, and the sealing cover 1400 is installed on the hopper 1100, so that the storage device 100 can be formed in a sealed state.

[0127] The channel device 200 can be inserted into the recovery tube 1300 by passing through the sealing hole 1410 and the sinkhole 1200 in sequence.

[0128] As the pumping device 500 moves downward, the internal pressure of the space formed by the closed cover 1400 and the hopper 1100 increases, the check valve 1500 opens, and the stagnant fluid 200 in the channel is transferred to the storage device 100.

[0129] Next, the support device 1000 may also include a spray cleaning device 1600 for cleaning by spraying a cleaning solution inside the storage device 100.

[0130] The spray cleaning device 1600 is made of rubber material and is formed to a specified length. One end is connected to the recovery pipe 1300, and the other end is sealed with a junction pipe 1630 1610. The pipe 1610 may include multiple micropores 1620.

[0131] Since one end of tube 1610 is connected to recovery tube 1300 and extends perpendicularly to the bottom surface of storage device 100, the contact point is defined as the starting point for measuring the length of tube 1610, the position of junction 1630 is defined as the ending point for measuring the length, and the length from the starting point to the ending point can be defined as the spray length range.

[0132] The spraying length range can be formed such that the length is equal to the length of the longest side of the bottom surface of the storage device 100.

[0133] When fluid is pumped to pipe 1610 at a predetermined pressure, pipe 1610 expands and the cleaning solution is injected into hopper 1100 through micro-holes 1620, characterized by being sprayed in all directions.

[0134] With the above configuration, the pumping device 500 for pumping fluids such as sauces has the advantage of being able to be used as a device for uniformly spraying cleaning liquid inside the storage device 100.

[0135] Referring to the accompanying drawings, embodiments of the present invention have been described in more detail.
