Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of liquid containers, and in particular to an inverted valve cover. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most bottled containers for holding liquids are designed with the cap facing up and the bottle bottom down. When using them, the cap is opened, the bottle is turned upside down, and the liquid inside flows out under gravity, or the bottle is squeezed to promote the flow of liquid. However, for some highly viscous liquids, such as dish soap, this design means that after the bottle is turned upside down, it takes a while for the liquid to flow from the inside of the bottle to the outlet, resulting in a poor user experience. In addition, it is inconvenient to open the cap and turn the bottle upside down every time you use it. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the above problems, this utility model provides an inverted valve cover. The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problems is as follows:

[0004] An inverted valve cover includes a push plate and a valve cover seat that is detachably and fixedly connected to a liquid storage bottle; the valve cover seat is provided with a liquid outlet that aligns with the mouth of the liquid storage bottle, a one-way liquid outlet structure is provided between the liquid outlet and the mouth of the bottle, and parallel sliding grooves are provided on both sides of the liquid outlet; the push plate is provided with a liquid outlet hole, the push plate slides along the sliding groove, and the liquid outlet hole overlaps / misaligns with the liquid outlet to open / seal the liquid outlet by means of the push plate.

[0005] Furthermore, a disposable limiting component is provided at the front end of the push plate. One end of the disposable limiting component is connected to the push plate, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the valve cover seat to restrict the push plate from sliding along the slide groove to open the liquid outlet.

[0006] Furthermore, a fixing groove is provided around the liquid outlet, and a sealing ring is installed in the fixing groove. The sealing ring is located between the push plate and the liquid outlet to increase the sealing performance of the push plate to the liquid outlet.

[0007] Furthermore, the push plate has raised ridges on both sides, which insert into the slide groove, allowing the push plate to slide within the slide groove; the push plate also has anti-slip textures.

[0008] Furthermore, ventilation holes are provided on the side wall of the valve cover seat.

[0009] Furthermore, the valve cover seat is also equipped with a removable cap to cover the bottom surface of the valve cover seat.

[0010] Furthermore, the cap is provided with a boss, and the liquid outlet extends outward from the protruding hole wall. When the liquid outlet overlaps with the liquid outlet, the boss is fitted into the protruding hole wall to block the liquid outlet.

[0011] Furthermore, parallel sliding walls are provided on both sides of the liquid outlet, and a sliding groove is provided on the sliding walls; a stabilizing element is provided on the cap, which docks / abuts with the sliding wall to form a stable horizontal bottom surface.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This inverted valve cap includes a push plate and a valve cap seat that is detachably and fixedly connected to the liquid storage bottle. The valve cap seat has a liquid outlet that aligns with the bottle mouth. A one-way liquid outlet structure is provided between the liquid outlet and the bottle mouth. Parallel sliding walls with grooves are provided on both sides of the liquid outlet. The push plate has a liquid outlet hole. The push plate slides along the groove, and the liquid outlet hole overlaps / misaligns with the liquid outlet to open / seal the liquid outlet. This valve cap is designed to be inverted, with the bottle body placed with the cap facing down. The one-way liquid outlet structure prevents liquid from flowing out, and the push plate is added for opening and closing to further ensure the sealing when inverted. Since the valve cap is always in an inverted state, even for highly viscous liquids, the liquid has already accumulated at the liquid outlet of the valve cap when in use. There is no need to flip the bottle body. Simply push the push plate lightly until the liquid outlet opens, or squeeze the bottle body directly when the liquid outlet is already open to achieve rapid liquid dispensing. It is convenient to use and provides a good user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0024] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following detailed description of a specific embodiment of "an inverted valve cover" of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the inverted valve cover includes a push plate 100 and a valve cover seat 200 detachably and fixedly connected to the liquid storage bottle 300. The valve cover seat 200 is provided with a liquid outlet 201 that mates with the bottle opening 301 of the liquid storage bottle 300. A one-way liquid outlet structure is provided between the liquid outlet 201 and the bottle opening 301. The one-way liquid outlet structure is preferably a one-way rubber valve or a silicone valve, so that the liquid inside the liquid storage bottle 300 will flow out from the liquid outlet 201 when the bottle body is squeezed, preventing liquid leakage when inverted. Parallel sliding grooves 203 are provided on both sides of the liquid outlet 201. The push plate 100 is provided with a liquid outlet hole 101, and protruding ribs 103 are provided on both sides of the push plate 100. The protruding ribs 103 penetrate into the sliding grooves 203. The push plate 100 slides back and forth along the groove 203 via the protrusion 103, and slides to the same position. The liquid outlet 101 on the push plate 100 overlaps or is misaligned with the liquid outlet 201. When the liquid outlet 101 overlaps with the liquid outlet 201, the body of the storage bottle 300 is squeezed, and the liquid flows out after passing through the bottle mouth 301, the one-way liquid outlet structure, the liquid outlet 201, and the liquid outlet 101, so that the liquid can be discharged immediately after the bottle is squeezed. When the liquid outlet 101 is misaligned with the liquid outlet 201, the push plate 100 abuts against and seals the liquid outlet 201. Even if the bottle body is accidentally squeezed, the liquid will not flow out from the liquid outlet 201, so as to achieve further sealing and prevent the liquid from leaking when the bottle body is inverted or when the bottle body is accidentally squeezed.

[0026] It should be noted that, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the liquid storage bottle 300 and the inverted valve cap are positioned with the liquid storage bottle 300 on top and the valve cap on the bottom when in use. The liquid inside the bottle accumulates at the valve cap position due to gravity. Therefore, when in use, simply push the push plate 100 to align the liquid outlet 101 on the push plate 100 with the liquid outlet 201 on the valve cap seat 200, and squeeze the bottle body to quickly dispense the liquid. There is no need to invert the bottle for use, making it convenient and providing a good user experience. Furthermore, when not storing the liquid for an extended period but only temporarily placing it after opening, it is not necessary to push the push plate 100 to the position of closing the liquid outlet 201, as the one-way dispensing structure also prevents liquid leakage when inverted. This allows for immediate dispensing upon short-term reuse, making it even more convenient to use.

[0027] See further Figure 2In this embodiment, a disposable limiting member 102 is provided at the front end of the push plate 100. One end of the disposable limiting member 102 is glued to the push plate 100, and the joint has a thinned adhesive section that is easy to tear off when subjected to lateral force. The other end of the disposable limiting member 102 abuts against the inner wall of the valve cover seat 200 to restrict the push plate 100 from sliding along the slide groove 203 to open the liquid outlet 201. When in use, it is only necessary to tear off and remove the disposable limiting member 102 to slide the push plate 100 to open the liquid outlet 201. This design can prevent the push plate 100 from accidentally sliding to the position of opening the liquid outlet 201 before the product is opened and used, thus preventing possible liquid leakage problems.

[0028] More specifically, in this embodiment, a fixing groove 204 is provided around the liquid outlet 201, and a sealing ring 205 is provided in the fixing groove 204. The sealing ring 205 is located between the push plate 100 and the liquid outlet 201, further increasing the sealing performance of the push plate 100 to the liquid outlet 201. The push plate 100 is provided with anti-slip texture 104 to increase the friction between the user's fingers and the push plate 100, making it easier to push the push plate 100. A ventilation hole 206 is provided on the side wall of the valve cover seat 200, or a notch is provided on the top of the valve cover seat 200. In this way, when the liquid storage bottle 300 and the valve cover are inverted, the moisture and liquid components remaining at the liquid outlet 201 and the liquid outlet hole 101 inside the valve cover can be evaporated more quickly, avoiding the growth of bacteria due to prolonged dampness.

[0029] See further Figure 3 and Figure 4 In another embodiment, the valve cover seat 200 is also provided with a removable cap 400. The cap 400 covers the bottom surface of the valve cover seat 200, which has a certain aesthetic effect. Moreover, the surface area of ​​the cap 400 in contact with the ground is larger than that of the valve cover seat 200, making it more stable when placed and less prone to tipping over. Furthermore, the cap 400 is provided with a boss 401, and the liquid outlet 101 extends outward from the protruding hole wall 105. When the liquid outlet 101 overlaps with the liquid outlet 201, the cap 400 covers the bottom surface of the valve cover seat 200, and the boss 401 is matched with the protruding hole wall 105, which can block the liquid outlet 101, replacing the sealing function of the push plate 100. When in use, the cap 400 can be removed and the body of the liquid storage bottle 300 can be squeezed to dispense the liquid. When it is necessary to leave it still for a long time, the cap 400 can be sealed to the bottom surface of the valve cover seat 200 and placed upside down.

[0030] Furthermore, parallel sliding walls 202 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outlet 201, and a sliding groove 203 is arranged on the sliding wall 202; a stabilizing element 402 is also symmetrically arranged on the cap 400. The stabilizing element 402 can abut against or be inserted into the sliding wall 202 to form a stable horizontal bottom surface, which is conducive to the stable placement of the liquid storage bottle 300 and the inverted valve cap.

[0031] It should be noted that the contact or fit between the cover 400 and the valve cover seat 200 varies depending on the condition of the valve cover seat 200: When the push plate 100 moves to a position where the outlet hole 101 and the outlet port 201 are misaligned, and the inverted valve cover is in the closed state, the fit between the cover 400 and the valve cover seat 200 is an interference fit; when the push plate 100 moves to a position where the outlet hole 101 and the outlet port 201 coincide, and the inverted valve cover is in the open state, when the cover 400 is placed on the valve cover seat 200, there are two possibilities: one is that the stabilizer 402 just avoids the sliding wall 201, in which case the arrow on the inner side of the cover 400 intersects with the arrow on the push plate 100 (see appendix for details). Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 The boss 401 on the cap 400 enters the protruding hole wall 105, and the two end faces abut against each other. When the valve cap seat 200 and the bottle body assembly are inverted, it is not easy for them to stand stably. Therefore, once the inverted valve cap is put into use, the cap 400 needs to be rotated to another position when inverted, at which point the arrow on the inner side of the cap 400 is parallel to the arrow on the push plate 100 (see appendix for details). Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 This allows the boss 401 on the cap to engage with the protruding hole wall 105, with their end faces abutting against each other. Simultaneously, the stabilizer 402 and the sliding wall 201 maintain stable contact, providing support and balance, ensuring the valve cap and bottle assembly remain stable and do not tilt when inverted. Additionally, the inner outer edge of the cap 400 has an annular protrusion that can be used as a container. If, when the bottle and valve cap assembly are inverted, the bottle is accidentally squeezed, causing the one-way valve or the seal between the boss 401 and the protruding hole wall 105 to fail, the liquid can be collected by the cap 400, preventing contamination of the countertop (floor).
