The use of "first" and "second" in the description is solely for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and is not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, implicitly specifying the number of the indicated technical features, or implicitly specifying the order of the indicated technical features.

[0027] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, and connecting should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0028] Reference Figure 1In an embodiment of the present invention, a squeeze bottle structure includes a bottle body 100, the bottle body 100 includes a bottle mouth 105 at the top and a bottle bottom 104 at the bottom, support grooves are provided at both ends of the bottle body 100, the support grooves are recessed on the wall surface of the bottle body 100, the support grooves extend along the circumference of the bottle body 100, and a deformation zone 110 is defined between the two support grooves, the deformation zone is located on both sides of the bottle body 100 and is recessed, a reinforcement portion is provided on the side of the support groove away from the deformation zone 110, the reinforcement portion is recessed, a transition surface 118 is provided between the two deformation zones 110, the transition surface 118 is located on both sides of the deformation zone 110, The transition surface 118 and the surface of the deformation zone 110 are continuous curved surfaces. It can be understood that the deformation zone 110 is a curved surface or a flat area. When the bottle body 100 is squeezed or shrinks due to cooling, the deformation zone 110 can produce an inward concave deformation. The depth of the deformation spreads outward from the center of the deformation zone 110 away from the support groove and gradually extends to the transition surface 118. Since the transition surface 118 and the surface of the deformation zone 110 transition smoothly, the overall deformation amplitude of the bottle body 100 can be weakened, and the deformation amount of the area outside the deformation zone 110 can be reduced by providing a reinforcement portion, thereby maintaining the shape of the bottle body 100 and maintaining the aesthetics of the product.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The bottle body 100 has an elliptical cross-section and includes a wide side 106 and a narrow side 107. The deformation zone 110 is located on the wide side 106, and the transition surface 118 is located on the narrow side 107. During use, the larger deformation zone 110 on the wide side 106 facilitates manual squeezing. Furthermore, after filling and cooling, atmospheric pressure acts on the bottle body 100, causing the deformation zone 110 to more easily concave. Due to the elliptical shape of the bottle body 100 and the concave configuration of the deformation zone 110, the deformation zone 110 remains concave after elastic deformation. Therefore, the deformation of the bottle body 100 is minimal, effectively reducing visual distortion and maintaining the product's shape and aesthetics. Furthermore, after the product is opened or squeezed, the internal and external pressures of the bottle body 100 balance, causing the deformation zone 110 to automatically rebound and return to its original shape, thus maintaining the product's shape.

[0030] It is understood that the deformation zone 110 includes a first extrusion surface 111 and a second extrusion surface 112. The first extrusion surface 111 is located on the side of the deformation zone 110 near the bottle mouth 105. The concave depth of the first extrusion surface 111 is greater than the concave depth of the second extrusion surface 112, which facilitates the manual extrusion of the bottle body 100. Moreover, when the bottle body 100 contracts due to cooling, the first extrusion surface 111 preferentially undergoes an inward concave deformation, thereby reducing the visual effect of the deformation of the bottle body 100. Furthermore, the first extrusion surface 111 is a concave arc surface, and the curvature of the second extrusion surface 112 is smaller than that of the first extrusion surface 111. The first extrusion surface 111 and the second extrusion surface 112 have a smooth transition. During the deformation process, the deformation range of the first extrusion surface 111 can extend toward the second extrusion surface 112, which can make the deformation uniform and effectively reduce the visual deformation effect. Furthermore, the second extrusion surface 112 is provided with a recessed rib 113. In this embodiment, at least two ribs 113 are provided. The ribs 113 can extend in the vertical direction or along the width direction of the wide side 106, which can effectively improve the rigidity of the second extrusion surface 112 and help reduce the deformation.

[0031] It can be understood that the support groove includes a first support groove 114 and a second support groove 115. The first support groove 114 has a first arc portion 116 close to the bottle mouth 105, and the second support groove 115 has a second arc portion 117 close to the bottle bottom 104. The centers of the first arc portion 116 and the second arc portion 117 are both located within the deformation zone 110, that is, the first support groove 114 and the second support groove 115 define the deformation zone 110 domain through the first arc portion 116 and the second arc portion 117, respectively. Since the support groove is a groove, the amplitude of the concave deformation of the deformation zone 110 is difficult to extend to the outside of the support groove. Therefore, the wall shape of the support groove can be kept away from the deformation zone 110, so that the bottle body 100 can be deformed at a preset position, reducing the impact on aesthetics. Furthermore, the second support groove 115 also includes a support segment 120. The support segment 120 is located in the middle of the bottle body 100, and both ends of the support segment 120 are connected to the second arc portion 117. Figure 3As can be understood, the support segment 120 is located on the narrow side 107 of the bottle body 100, and the support segment 120 smoothly transitions to the second arc portion 117. During use, when a person squeezes the deformation zone 110 on the wide side 106 of the bottle body 100, the narrow side 107 deforms to protrude outward. That is, when the bottle body 100 is "flattened," both sides protrude outward. Providing the support segment 120 on the narrow side 107 effectively improves the rigidity of the bottle body 100, reduces the extent of the protrusion of the narrow side 107, and improves the ability of the bottle body 100 to rebound and return to its original shape after squeezing, thereby effectively maintaining the predetermined shape and aesthetics of the bottle body 100. As can be understood, a transition segment is also provided on the first support groove 114, which smoothly transitions to the first arc portion 116, further enhancing the structural rigidity of the narrow side 107.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 It can be understood that the reinforcement portion is located on the narrow side 107, and the reinforcement portion includes a first recess 102. The first recess 102 is located on the side of the second support groove 115 away from the deformation zone 110. The first recess 102 is recessed, which can effectively improve the structural rigidity of the narrow side 107 of the bottle body to prevent the bottle body 100 from being excessively deformed and unable to recover. Furthermore, the reinforcement portion includes a second recess 103, and a second recess 103 is provided at both ends of the narrow side 107 close to the bottle body 100 and the bottle bottom 104. Specifically, the second recess 103 is approximately flat, which can, on the one hand, improve the structural rigidity of the narrow side 107 of the bottle body 100. On the other hand, since the narrow side 107 of the bottle body 100 is an arc surface, during storage, the provision of the second recess 103 with an approximately flat surface can shorten the placement distance between two adjacent bottle bodies 100, thereby saving storage space. Moreover, during storage or transportation, it can avoid the arc surface of the narrow side 107 from causing irreversible concavity due to collision or squeezing of adjacent bottle bodies 100, thereby enabling the bottle body 100 to better maintain its original shape.

[0033] Furthermore, a third support groove 119 is provided. The third support groove 119 surrounds the outer circumference of the bottle body 100 and is located at one end of the bottle body 100 near the bottle base 104. Specifically, the third support groove 119 is located on the side of the second support groove 115 away from the deformation zone 110. This further enhances the rigidity of the peripheral wall of the bottle body 100 near the bottle base 104, thereby helping to maintain the shape of the bottle body 100. Furthermore, the bottle base 104 is provided with a bottom wall 121 that is recessed into the bottle body 100. The bottom wall 121 is a circular arc surface. During the filling process, the temperature of the liquid is relatively high. The provision of the inwardly recessed circular arc surface helps prevent the bottle base 104 from convexly deforming due to heat. The circular arc surface also provides a certain cushioning capacity, effectively withstanding the impact of the liquid on the bottle base 104 during transportation, thereby helping to reduce deformation of the bottle body 100.

Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
