[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of liquid outlet devices, in particular to a liquid outlet component and a container. BACKGROUND

[0002] The reasons for the false induction of the automatic liquid outlet device are not only the possible damage of the device, but also the fact that the liquid taking window is generally forwardly extended, because it needs to provide sufficient liquid taking range for the hands. Since the liquid taking induction itself has a certain distance, when the liquid taking window is extended too far forward, it is easy to cause the user to move closer to the liquid taking window range in the case of washing / rinsing tableware, washing hands, etc., thereby more easily causing false induction of liquid. In addition, the larger the induction range of the liquid taking window, the greater the probability of false induction. However, the liquid taking window range of the automatic liquid outlet device is mainly designed to better meet the hand size of the user, so as to facilitate the user to take liquid.

[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The liquid outlet component of the first aspect embodiment of the present application is applied to an automatic liquid cleaning product. The liquid outlet component includes a shell 100, a sensing component 200, and a mounting end 120.

[0038] The shell 100 has an output end 110. The sensing component 200 includes a sensing window 210 arranged on the surface of the shell 100. The mounting end 120 is arranged on the shell 100 and includes a plurality of mounting portions 121 for detachable connection with the container bottle mouth. Each mounting portion 121 is respectively used to correspond to a different orientation of the output end 110 in the circumferential direction, so that when the mounting end 120 is connected with the bottle mouth of the container through one of the mounting portions 121, the output end 110 has a preset orientation in the circumferential direction.

[0039] It can be understood that by arranging a plurality of mounting portions 121, the output end 110 has a plurality of directions for taking liquid in the circumferential direction. When a mis-touch situation occurs, the taking liquid direction can be adjusted in time by selecting different mounting portions 121 to cooperate with the bottle mouth, so as to avoid the mis-sensing situation as much as possible and improve the user experience.

[0040] In some embodiments, the mounting end 120 is located at the lower end of the shell 100, and the upper end or one side is used to arrange the output end 110. The sensing component 200 is arranged on the shell 100 and the sensing window 210 is arranged on the surface of the shell 100, so that the approaching object can be smoothly detected to trigger the output of the output end 110. The mounting portion 121 is located on the inner side of the mounting end 120, so that when the mounting end 120 is sleeved on the bottle mouth, one of the mounting portions 121 can cooperate with the corresponding mounting structure on the bottle mouth, so as to realize the reliable connection between the components when the output end 110 can select one of the taking liquid directions. In some embodiments, the output end 110 can be an output nozzle. In other embodiments, the output end 110 can be a mounting window with an output nozzle. The mounting window can adaptively install the corresponding output nozzle component according to the different materials in the container.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present application, the mounting portion 121 is a threaded structure, and the plurality of mounting portions 121 form a multi-start threaded structure and each has a plurality of starting positions, so that when the mounting end 120 is screwed into the bottle opening of the container through one of the starting positions, the output end 110 corresponds to have a preset orientation in the circumferential direction. It can be understood that the mounting end 120 is detachably connected to the bottle opening of the container by means of threaded connection, and at this time the multi-start threaded structure has a plurality of starting positions, and different screwing positions can ensure that the output end 110 has different directions when the mounting end 120 is installed to the appropriate position of the bottle opening, that is, the multi-start threaded structure can make the output end 110 have a plurality of liquid taking directions.

[0042] In other embodiments, the mounting portion 121 is a buckle structure, and a plurality of buckle structures are arranged along the circumferential direction of the mounting end 120, and a corresponding buckle structure capable of cooperating with the mounting portion 121 is arranged on the bottle opening. Selecting one of the buckle structures to cooperate with the buckle structure of the bottle opening can also make the output end 110 correspondingly have a preset orientation in the circumferential direction. Similarly, embodiments in which the mounting portion 121 is provided in other structure forms capable of achieving detachable connection are not limited here.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, the multi-start threaded structure is provided as a four-start threaded structure, and the output end 110 has four liquid taking directions in the circumferential direction, and the adjacent liquid taking directions are arranged at an included angle of 90°. It can be understood that the four-start threaded structure makes the output end 110 have four liquid taking directions, and the liquid taking directions are arranged in a cross shape opposite to each other, so that the liquid outlet component can meet the use requirements in most scenes.

[0044] In some embodiments, the multi-start threaded structure is provided as at least two start threaded structures, and the included angles between adjacent liquid taking directions are equal, so that the liquid taking directions can be evenly distributed, thereby meeting the use requirements while the structural design is more standardized.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present application, the shell 100 includes an outwardly extending liquid outlet arm 130, and the output end 110 is arranged on the liquid outlet arm 130, and the induction window 210 is arranged close to the output end 110. It can be understood that the liquid outlet arm 130 is used to make the output end 110 have a certain distance from the bottle body to facilitate use, and the output end 110 is arranged at a suitable position of the liquid outlet arm 130 and realizes liquid outlet, thereby further achieving the effect of facilitating use.

[0046] In some embodiments, the output of the output end 110 can be liquid spraying, liquid spraying, or can be replaced by a pump body to dispense foam, solid microparticles, etc., which are not limited here.

[0047] In some embodiments of the present application, the induction window 210 is arranged on the liquid outlet arm 130 and can change the orientation synchronously with the output end 110. It can be understood that the induction window 210 arranged on the liquid outlet arm 130 can better achieve induction and liquid outlet, and the orientation of the induction window 210 can change synchronously with the output end 110, so that the misinduction can be further avoided, and the user experience can be improved.

[0048] In some embodiments, the induction component 200 can be arranged on the liquid outlet arm 130 of the shell 100, one end of the liquid outlet arm 130 is connected to the shell 100, the bottom surface of the other end is provided with the output end 110, and the induction component 200 is arranged between the two ends of the liquid outlet arm 130 and relatively close to the position where the output end 110 is arranged, so that induction can be more easily achieved.

[0049] In another embodiment, the induction component 200 can also be adaptively arranged, for example, on the vertical surface of the shell, as long as the induction component 200 is relatively close to the position where the output end 110 is arranged and can normally induce.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, the liquid outlet component includes a control assembly 300, which is configured to control the output end 110 to pump out different gradients of liquid according to the different induction distance information between the induction component 200 and the induction window 210. It can be understood that in order to meet the liquid demand of users in different scenarios, the automatic liquid outlet device in this embodiment does not have a completely predetermined pump-out amount, but has two or more different gradient pump-out amount options. The automatic liquid outlet principle of the conventional automatic liquid outlet device mainly depends on induction technology and intelligent control. The automatic liquid outlet device usually includes a shell, an induction module, a control module, a driving module, a power module, and a packaging bottle. When the user's hand approaches the induction module, the induction module detects the approach of the hand through infrared induction technology and immediately sends a signal. After receiving the signal, the control module drives the motor to work, extracts the liquid in the packaging bottle, and then pumps out the liquid through the liquid outlet nozzle. However, the conventional automatic liquid outlet device is limited by the predetermined pump-out amount, which makes it difficult to meet the use requirements of different groups of users in different scenarios.

[0051] To this end, the application controls the liquid output amount by sensing the distance. When the user performs the liquid taking operation of different gradient pump output liquid according to the actual use scene requirement, only needs to sense the liquid taking according to the distance between the hand and the liquid taking window, so as to realize the pump of different liquid amount. Thus, the cleaning scene requirement of different groups such as single person, multiple person family and the like is met. The automatic liquid output device is more humanized, and the liquid waste is avoided. The design is not only convenient to use, high in hygiene, but also can accurately position the actual liquid taking amount requirement of the user, effectively reduces the hand pollution, improves the cleaning efficiency, avoids the liquid waste, and meets the sustainable requirement of the current environment.

[0052] In some embodiments of the application, the liquid output component further comprises a conveying component 400 for conveying the liquid in the container to the output end 110 and a check valve 500 arranged in the conveying channel 410 of the conveying component 400 and capable of unidirectional conduction in the conveying direction. It can be understood that the check valve 500 can be used to solve the problem of stable pumping of the automatic liquid output device. After taking liquid, the conventional automatic liquid output device will be found to be empty pumping or the initial pumping liquid to be less when taking liquid again after a period of time without continuous frequent operation. The root cause of the unstable pumping amount is that the liquid in the pipeline is affected by gravity and flows back downward, resulting in a cavity in the first half of the liquid outlet pipe. To solve this problem, a check valve 500 can be added in the liquid channel range. Thus, even in the case of infrequent use, the problem of empty pumping or significant less pumping liquid does not occur, and the stable amount and stability of liquid pumping are better ensured.

[0053] In some embodiments, the conveying component 400 comprises a pump body battery assembly and the like. The pump body is controlled by the control action of the control assembly 300, the battery assembly can power the entire liquid output component, cooperate with the conveying channel 410 to enable the liquid in the container to be conveyed to the output end 110, and arrange the check valve 500 in the conveying channel 410 to solve the problem of stable pumping of the automatic liquid output device as much as possible.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present application, the liquid outlet component further comprises a pump sleeve 600 arranged at the bottle mouth of the container, and the mounting end 120 is connected to the pump sleeve 600 through one of the mounting portions 121, so that the mounting end 120 is arranged at the bottle mouth of the container through indirect connection, and the output end 110 corresponds to a preset orientation in the circumferential direction. It can be understood that the mounting end 120 can be connected to the bottle mouth through direct or indirect arrangement, and when direct connection is adopted, the connection structure of the mounting portion 121 and the bottle mouth is designed specifically to meet the use requirements. When indirect connection is adopted, the connection structure of the mounting portion 121 and the intermediate structural member such as the pump sleeve 600 is designed specifically, and the connection structure of the intermediate structural member such as the pump sleeve 600 and the bottle mouth is designed at the same time, so that the pump sleeve 600 can be normally mounted on the bottle mouth, and the mounting portion 121 can be smoothly mounted on the pump sleeve 600 and the liquid taking direction can be selected.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, the output end 110 is provided with a one-way cut-off valve 111 in the output direction. It can be understood that the cut-off valve 111 is used to solve the problem of liquid hanging and weathering and drying of the automatic liquid outlet device. In some embodiments, the cut-off valve 111 is a one-way silicone cut-off valve. In other embodiments, other structures or materials of the cut-off valve 111 can be used to meet different use requirements.

[0056] It can be understood that the conventional automatic liquid outlet device will have some liquid remaining in the mouth part of the automatic liquid outlet device after taking liquid, which is what we call liquid hanging of the liquid outlet nozzle. And these liquid residues are not limited to the following situations, including: ① the cut-off force of the liquid outlet nozzle to the content liquid is not good, the liquid cannot be quickly cut off, resulting in liquid hanging of the liquid outlet nozzle; ② the viscosity of the content liquid is too high and is not easy to cut off; ③ after the liquid is pumped out, a small amount of liquid will remain in the channel of the liquid outlet nozzle, and when the pump stops working, the liquid in the channel will flow downward under the influence of gravity, and the liquid outlet nozzle is usually designed vertically downward or downward curved, which causes the content liquid remaining in the channel of the liquid outlet nozzle to flow to the liquid outlet nozzle, forming a liquid hanging situation. When the liquid remaining and hanging on the automatic liquid outlet device is not removed or processed, and in the case of accumulation over time or infrequent use, the content liquid in the liquid outlet nozzle part will be dried, resulting in drying and clumping. Not only is there a hygiene problem, but the clotted content liquid may also block the automatic liquid outlet device, causing the liquid to be unable to be pumped out for use or the automatic liquid outlet device to be damaged.

[0057] Therefore, in order to solve the problem of liquid hanging on the nozzle after the automatic liquid outlet device takes liquid, a one-way silica gel cut-off valve 111 is added to the liquid outlet nozzle. When the automatic liquid outlet device is triggered to dispense liquid by hand induction, the one-way silica gel cut-off valve 111 will open due to the extrusion pressure of the liquid. After the liquid is taken, the one-way silica gel valve will automatically close the opening due to its structure and material characteristics, and quickly cut off the liquid, thereby avoiding the problem of liquid hanging on the liquid outlet nozzle of the liquid outlet device. In addition, the closing of the opening of the one-way silica gel cut-off valve 111 can also better protect the liquid in the interior of the liquid outlet nozzle and the interior of the liquid outlet channel from being dried by air, solving the problem of liquid weathering and drying and clumping in the liquid outlet nozzle, which also avoids bringing bad user experience at the source.

[0058] With reference to Figures 1 to 4 The container of the second aspect embodiment of the present application can be a product containing cleaning liquid, and the container comprises the liquid outlet component of the first aspect embodiment of the present application, which can solve the problem of easy misinduction of the automatic liquid outlet device as much as possible and improve user experience.

[0059] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are not described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist, they should be considered as the scope of the present application.

[0060] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the present application.
