[0041] This utility model proposes a device that can be applied to the medical device industry, cosmetics industry, food industry, industrial chemical product industry, etc., and is not limited thereto.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 7In one embodiment of this utility model, the device is used to isolate and mix two substances. The device includes a first chamber 10 and a second chamber 20. The first chamber 10 has a first storage cavity 10a for storing a first substance and a docking cavity 10b communicating with the first storage cavity 10a. The docking cavity 10b has an open end away from the first storage cavity 10a, and a communicating groove 10b1 is provided on the inner wall of the docking cavity 10b. The second chamber 20 has a second storage cavity 20a for storing a second substance. The top and bottom of the second storage cavity 20a are closed, and the second chamber 20 is inserted into the docking cavity from the open end. The first storage cavity 10a and its opening are sealed inside the first storage cavity 10b. The second compartment 20 is located inside the docking cavity 10b and has a through hole 20b on its outer peripheral wall. The through hole 20b is connected to the second storage cavity 20a. The second compartment 20 and the first compartment 10 can rotate relative to each other to switch between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the inner wall of the docking cavity 10b covers the through hole 20b to isolate the first storage cavity 10a and the second storage cavity 20a. In the second position, the connecting groove 10b1 is connected to the through hole 20b to connect the first storage cavity 10a and the second storage cavity 20a.

[0043] like Figures 7 to 13 As shown, in this embodiment, the first compartment 10 includes a main shell 11 and a cover 12 screwed onto the main shell 11. The inner cavity of the main shell 11 forms a first storage cavity 10a and a docking cavity 10b. The two ends of the main shell 11 may have openings. The cover 12 can be screwed onto one end of the main shell 11 via a threaded structure. The other end of the main shell 11 is an opening of the docking cavity 10b. The second compartment 20 includes a compartment 21 and a compartment cover 22 covering the compartment 21. The second storage cavity 20a is disposed inside the compartment 21. One end of the compartment 21 may be a closed structure to close the bottom of the second storage cavity 20a. The other end of the compartment 21 may have an opening. The compartment cover 22 is placed over the opening to close the top of the second storage cavity 20a.

[0044] It is understood that this utility model, by adopting the above-described structure, enables the storage of two substances. When mixing the substances, the structure itself does not need to be damaged. The two storage cavities can be connected simply by rotating the first compartment 10 or the second compartment 20, so that the two substances can be mixed together under the action of gravity, which greatly improves the convenience of operation.

[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 7In one embodiment, the device can be configured as a cylinder, with two connecting grooves 10b1 extending axially along the first chamber 10. The two connecting grooves 10b1 are symmetrically arranged about the center line of the docking cavity 10b. Two through holes 20b are also symmetrically arranged about the center line of the second chamber 20. In the second position, the two connecting grooves 10b1 and the two through holes 20b are connected one-to-one. This helps to increase the mixing rate of the two substances while ensuring mixing uniformity, guaranteeing a better effect after mixing of the product within the packaging.

[0046] In this embodiment, the cavity wall of the docking cavity 10b has portions with different diameters to form an inwardly recessed connecting groove 10b1, where the diameter of the cavity wall at the connecting groove 10b1 is larger than the diameter of other portions.

[0047] In the initial state, refer to Figures 1 to 3 The through hole 20b of the compartment 21 abuts against the cavity wall of the main shell 11, separating the first substance from the second substance.

[0048] When mixing is required, refer to... Figures 4 to 6 When the chamber 21 is rotated to be opposite to the larger part of the inner diameter of the main shell 11 (i.e. the position of the connecting groove 10b1), the connecting groove 10b1 is connected to the through hole 20b. The first substance stored in the upper part of the main shell 11 falls into the connecting groove 10b1 under the action of gravity and enters the chamber 21 through the through hole 20b, where it is mixed with the second substance.

[0049] To further improve the mixing rate and effect, in this embodiment, the length of the connecting groove 10b1 is greater than or equal to the length of the through hole 20b.

[0050] Main reference Figures 7 to 13 In one embodiment, the inner wall of the end of the cover 12 connected to the main shell 11 may be provided with a plurality of anti-retraction teeth 121, and the main shell 11 may be provided with a plurality of protrusions 111 corresponding to the positions of the anti-retraction teeth 121. The anti-retraction teeth 121 abut against the protrusions 111 to restrict the cover 12 from moving in the opposite direction to the direction in which it is screwed onto the main shell 11. This arrangement can prevent operator misoperation, give the cover 12 an anti-loosening function, and further improve the convenience of operation.

[0051] To enable relative rotation between the first compartment 10 and the second compartment 20, and to prevent the operator from rotating them in the opposite direction, the following references are mainly made: Figures 7 to 13In one embodiment, the housing 21 may be provided with a plurality of protrusions 211, and the inner wall of the main shell 11 may be provided with a plurality of limiting protrusions 101 and a plurality of anti-rotation protrusions 102 at positions corresponding to the protrusions 211. The heights of the limiting protrusions 101 and the anti-rotation protrusions 102 are different (i.e., the height of the protrusions outward on the inner wall). The limiting protrusions 101 cooperate with the protrusions 211 to achieve rotational limiting, and the anti-rotation protrusions 102 cooperate with the protrusions 211 to prevent rotation in the wrong direction, providing a certain feel for operation, which makes operation simpler and more comfortable.

[0052] It should be noted that the first compartment 10 and the second compartment 20 can be designed such that the operator can rotate the second compartment 20 in the first direction to switch it from the first position to the second position, or it can be designed such that the operator can rotate the first compartment 10 in the first direction to switch it from the first position to the second position. The first direction is either clockwise or counterclockwise. The aforementioned incorrect direction refers to the opposite direction of the first direction.

[0053] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 In one embodiment, the compartment 21 may include a main body 201 and an insertion portion 202 connected to the main body 201. The diameter of the insertion portion 202 is smaller than the diameter of the main body 201. The end diameter of the main body 201 should be greater than or equal to the diameter of the first compartment 10 to cover the opening of the first compartment 10. The diameter of the insertion portion 202 should be close to the inner diameter of the docking cavity 10b.

[0054] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In one embodiment, the hopper 21 is interference-fitted with the docking cavity 10b to seal the first storage cavity 10a, preventing leakage of the contents and thus avoiding waste.

[0055] In this embodiment, the compartment 21 is installed inside the lower part of the main shell 11 and can be assembled by pressing or other means. During assembly, the outer wall of the compartment 21 is interference-fitted with the lower part of the main shell 11 with a smaller diameter.

[0056] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 11 In this embodiment, the compartment 21 may be provided with an annular sealing part 203, and a limiting groove 103 is provided in the docking cavity 10b at the position corresponding to the sealing part 203. In this way, the sealing performance of the first storage cavity 10a and the second storage cavity 20a can be further improved.

[0057] The annular sealing part 203 can be a rubber sealing ring sleeved on the outer periphery of the chamber body 21, or it can be a flexible protrusion integrally formed with the chamber body 21. This article does not limit it.

[0058] This invention utilizes a separate upper and lower compartment design to achieve the separation and mixing of two substances. From a product usage perspective, some substances are separated before use and only mixed when needed to achieve their desired effect. For example, AB glue and lyophilized powder are mixed before use. From a structural perspective, this invention features an ingenious device design. The connection and isolation of the two substances can be achieved simply by rotating the first compartment 10 or the second compartment 20, eliminating the need to break the packaging for mixing. This simplifies operation, avoids product waste, and the integrated structure results in an aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-operate, and highly practical product.

[0059] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
