Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a pedestal-equipped liquid dispensing container, and more particularly to a technique for a structure of a liquid dispensing container that is easy to use, does not drip, and is hygienic. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, liquid pouring containers such as seasoning containers have a spout on the top and are tilted when used. When pouring, liquid can drip or, depending on how it is tilted, can pour too much. There were also models that allowed seasoning to be poured without tilting the container, but the spout was tightly attached to the base, which could not be said to be hygienic. Therefore, there has been a demand for a liquid pouring container that allows the appropriate amount to be poured without tilting and that can maintain a hygienic spout.

[0003] To address these problems, various techniques have been proposed in the past. For example, a condiment container structure (see Patent Document 1) has been proposed and is known technology. More specifically, this relates to a container for dispensing viscous liquids such as mayonnaise, ketchup, and dressing, and is sealed and dispensing the condiment from a nozzle at the bottom by pressing a hollow ball at the top. However, since the spout is fixed to the base, it cannot be said to be hygienic, and the above problems are not yet solved. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0017] The greatest feature of the liquid pouring container with base of the present invention is that the appropriate amount of seasoning can be poured without tilting the container, and the liquid pouring container can be placed on the container mounting portion of the base only by the side of the storage portion, allowing it to be stored without the spout coming into contact with the base or the like.

[0020] The liquid dispensing container with base 1 is a container for dispensing liquids including seasonings, and is stored stably and hygienically by the base. The liquid includes seasonings such as soy sauce, sauce, vinegar, chili oil, etc. It also includes highly viscous seasonings such as mayonnaise and ketchup. In addition, the container can be used for food other than seasonings, medicines, etc., as long as the liquid can be dropped and kept sealed during storage. The pedestal-equipped liquid dispensing container 1 is composed of a container 10, which is a liquid dispensing container, and a pedestal 50 on which the container is placed. The container 10 is a main body portion that stores liquid, and the base 50 is a support portion that stores the container 10 in an upright position with the spout 21 of the container 10 facing downwards.

[0021] The container 10 is a container into which liquid can be dropped without tilting. The container 10 is composed of a storage portion 20, an inner lid 30, and an outer lid 40 (FIG. 3). The storage section 20 is a portion of the container 10 that holds liquid such as seasoning. The material used is glass, acrylic, plastic, or the like, which is strong and not easily affected by acids, etc. If it is transparent, the remaining amount can be checked, and if it is opaque, a desired design can be applied. The shape has few projections and recesses and is straight up to the spout 21. This shape makes the container 10 easy to clean, which is preferable from a hygienic standpoint. The outlet 21 is located at the bottom of the reservoir 20 and has an appropriate size so that the liquid 80 can drip easily and the liquid 80 does not drip from the outlet 21 due to its own weight. The upper part of the storage part 20 has an external threaded part 22 which is widely open. During use, the container 10 is sealed by the inner lid 30 and the outer lid 40, and the air pressure inside the container 10 becomes lower than the outside air pressure, so that even though the injection port 23 is located below the storage part 20, no liquid drips.

[0022] The inner lid 30 is in contact with the injection port 23 of the storage section 20, and prevents the liquid 80 from reaching the outer lid 40 when the container 10 is turned over. The inner lid 30 is made of a soft material such as silicone rubber. By using a soft material, airtightness can be ensured. The inner lid 30 is disposed between the storage portion 20 and the outer lid 40 . A through hole 31 is formed in the approximate center of the inner lid 30, and the through hole 31 allows the storage section 20 and the outer lid 40 to communicate with each other. Through-hole 31 is large enough to transmit air pressure from outer lid 40 to reservoir 20. In addition, since through-hole 31 is located near the center of inner lid 30, liquid 80 can be prevented from flowing into outer lid 40 even if container 10 falls over. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the liquid 80 from soiling the rear surface of the outer lid 40, and to prevent the liquid 80 from interfering with the movement of the pressing portion 43 of the outer lid 40 (FIG. 2(d)).

[0023] The outer lid 40 has an elastic pressing part 43. It also has an internal thread part 41, which screws into the external thread part 22 of the storage part 20. The area around the internal thread part 41 is a lightweight, strong member such as resin. The upper pressing part 43 part is made of a soft material such as rubber, or a button or the like. In either case, by applying pressure from above, the air pressure inside the container 10 is increased, which in turn increases the pressure on the liquid 80, pushing it down and causing the liquid 80 to drip from the spout 21 (Figure 2b). Another possible structure of the outer lid 40 is the structure shown in FIG. 2(c). The outer lid 40 has a tube 45 extending from the back surface to the side surface, and the tube 45 is usually stored in the outer lid 40 in a sealed manner by the rotating part 44. When the tube 45 is stored in the outer lid 40 in a sealed manner, the air pressure in the container 10 does not change, so there is no dripping. When the rotating part 44 is rotated and the tube 45 is brought out to the side surface of the outer lid 40, the mouth of the tube 45 is opened, and the inside of the container 10 communicates with the outside air through the tube 45. Then, the outside air pressure is transmitted to the inside of the container 10, increasing the air pressure and pushing down the liquid 80, so that the liquid 80 can drip from the spout 21. In this way, an openable hole is provided, and the amount of opening can be adjusted, so that the amount of dripping can be adjusted.

[0024] The base 50 is a portion on which the container 10 is placed, and has a container placement portion 62 that surrounds the side surface of the container 10. The container 10 is placed on the container placement portion 62 only by the side surface of the storage portion 20. Since the spout 21 of the container 10 always faces downwards and the size of the spout 21 is small compared to the overall size of the container 10, it is unstable and difficult to stand the container 10 on a table or the like by itself. Furthermore, if the container 10 is stood on its own, the spout 21 will come into contact with the table or the like, which is very unsanitary. The base 50 is a structure that solves these problems. The base 50 is composed of a container receiving portion 60 and a drip receiving portion 70 (FIG. 3). The drip receiving portion 70 is located on the bottom surface of the base 50 and is detachable. The container receiving section 60 places the container 10 on a container mounting section 62 continuing from a container insertion opening 61. The shape of the container mounting section 62 roughly follows the curved portion continuing from the pouring outlet 21 of the storage section 20, and has an O-ring (upper part) 63 on the upper part of the container mounting section 62 and an O-ring (lower part) 64 on the lower part. The O-ring (upper) 63 and the O-ring (lower) 64 are arranged to stably support the container 10 and to form a sealed area 51 around the pouring outlet 21 that is isolated from the outside. They are molded from an elastic material such as silicone and come into circumferential contact with the side of the container 10. Furthermore, the O-ring does not necessarily have to be disposed in two locations, one above and one below; as long as it can perform the above-mentioned function, it may be disposed in only one specified location in the container mounting portion 62, or it may be disposed in three or more locations to better perform its function. A lower portion of container receiving portion 60 that corresponds to pouring outlet 21 of storage portion 20 is spaced apart from pouring outlet 21 so as not to come into contact with pouring outlet 21 (FIG. 1(a)).

[0025] In addition, a connecting portion 65 is provided on the side of the container receiving portion 60 for connecting to another base 50. By matching the connecting portions 65 with each other, it is possible to connect a plurality of containers 10. Therefore, a plurality of bases 50 can be managed as a single unit. The drip receiver 70 is a portion that receives dripping liquid from the spout 21. Not only with this container, but with other cases as well, when dripping, the remaining dripping liquid may drip from the spout 21. The drip receiver 70 has a recess 71 that receives the dripping liquid, thereby keeping the spout 21 in a hygienic state. The dripping receptacle 70 is detachable from the container receiving part 60, and can be easily washed as needed. The dripping receptacle 70 is in close contact with the container receiving part 60 by an edge part 72 or the like, and the space between the container receiving part 60 and the dripping receptacle 70 is sealed.

[0026] The overall movement will be explained with reference to Figures 1 and 2. 1 is a cross-sectional view and a perspective view of a container 10 placed on a base 50. The container 10 is filled with a liquid 80. The container 10 is inserted through a container insertion opening 61 of the base 50, and is supported by an O-ring (upper part) 63 and an O-ring (lower part) 64 of a container placement portion 62. The spout 21 of the container 10 is held below the base 50 without making contact with the base 50. The area around the spout 21 is a sealed area 51 that is isolated from the outside, so that the container 10 does not come into contact with the outside during storage, making it extremely hygienic. As shown in FIG. 1(b), the upper portion of the container 10 is exposed from the base 50, so that the container 10 can be easily removed when it is to be used.

[0027] 2(a) shows the state after container 10 has been removed. Since the air pressure inside container 10 is slightly lower than the outside air pressure, liquid 80 is retained in reservoir 20 without dripping from spout 21. 2(b), by pressing the pressing part 43 of the outer lid 40, the air pressure inside the outer lid 40 increases, which increases the air pressure inside the storage part 20 through the through hole 31 of the inner lid 30, pushing down the liquid 80 and causing the liquid 80 to drip from the spout 21. The amount of dripping depends on the amount of pressing of the pressing part 43, so the amount of dripping can be easily adjusted.

[0028] Moreover, by using the structure shown in FIG. 6, the amount of dripping when the pressing portion 43 is pressed can be set to a predetermined value. The explanation will be given with reference to FIG. The push-up portion 43 is composed of a button portion 90 , a piston portion 91 , a cylinder portion 92 and a spring 93 . When a user drips liquid, the button portion 90 moves downward a certain distance by being pressed. A piston portion 91 is fixed below the button portion 90. The piston portion 91 is a portion that changes the amount of air in the cylinder portion 92 by moving up and down. When the piston portion 91 moves down, the air in the cylinder portion 92 is pushed into the storage portion 10, and the force of this pushes the liquid 80 down from the spout. When the piston portion 91 moves up, the air in the storage portion 10 is taken into the cylinder portion 92. A valve may be provided to prevent this air from being taken in. The spring 93 biases the piston portion 91 upward. When no force is applied to the button portion 90, the spring 93 moves the piston portion 91 and the button portion 90 to a position where their upward movement is limited. When the button portion 90 is pressed, the button portion 90 moves to a position where the downward movement is limited. Since the limit positions of the vertical movement are fixed, the amount of movement is always constant. When button portion 90 is pressed downward, piston portion 91 fixed to button portion 90 also moves downward. Then, piston portion 91 pushes air from cylinder portion 92 into container 10, and a corresponding amount of liquid 80 drips from spout 21. Since the amount of movement of the button part 90 is always constant, the amount of air accompanying the movement is also constant. Therefore, by setting the amount of air accompanying the movement to a predetermined amount, the amount of liquid dripping from the spout 21 can be set to a predetermined desired amount. For example, setting the specified amount as a teaspoon (5ml) or tablespoon (15ml) makes it convenient for cooking and for managing calories and salt. In addition, if it is necessary to change the amount of dripping at one time, a structure such as that shown in Figure 2(c) can be added. By adding such a structure, it is usually possible to drip a fixed amount, and to drip any amount as necessary. The shape of the button portion 90 may be a shape that presses only a part of a cylinder, as shown in Fig. 6(b). With such a shape, the button portion 90 can be pressed with the thumb of the hand holding the entire outer frame 40 in one hand. This makes it possible to drip liquid with one hand, which is preferable because it allows smooth dripping of seasonings during cooking, etc.

[0029] With a normal spice container, the amount of liquid that pours out depends on the speed and angle at which it is tilted, making it difficult to pour out a constant amount of liquid. In addition, there are spray types that dispense a fixed amount of liquid, but these generally have a complicated structure and are difficult to handle. Furthermore, pouring liquid into such a structure makes maintenance and cleaning complicated, and is often unhygienic. The seasoning container of this embodiment can be used to pour without tilting, and the pouring mechanism is simple, being achieved only by changes in air pressure inside the container, so it is also suitable for a structure that drips a fixed amount.

[0030] When pressing portion 43 of outer lid 40 is released, pressing portion 43 returns to its original state. At this time, the air pressure in reservoir 20 decreases, air enters reservoir 20 from spout 21, and dripping of liquid 80 stops.

[0031] Moreover, instead of the pressing portion 43, a structure in which a tube 45 and a rotating portion 44 are provided on the outer lid 40 may be used as shown in FIG. 2(c). When the tube 45 is stored in the outer lid 40 by being folded or the like in the rotating portion 44, the outside air pressure does not enter through the tube 45, and the liquid 80 in the container 10 is maintained. By rotating the rotating part 44 and letting the tube 45 come out from the side, the inside of the outer lid 40 communicates with the outside air through the tube 45. Then, the outside air pressure presses down on the liquid 80 in the container 10 through the tube 45 and the through-hole 31, causing the liquid 80 to drip from the spout 21. Unlike the case of the pressing part 43, the dripping continues while the tube 45 is open, which is convenient when it is desired to drip a relatively large amount. To adjust the dripping amount, the opening of the tube 45 can be changed. By rotating the rotating part 44 and storing it inside the outer lid 40, communication with the outside air via the tube 45 is cut off, and the dripping of the liquid 80 stops. In this manner, by using the tube 45 and the rotating portion 44, the amount of dripping can be easily adjusted within a wide range, which is convenient.

[0032] For more viscous condiments such as ketchup or mayonnaise, higher air pressure may be required to dispense them. As a structure for such a case, a structure in which an air reservoir is disposed within the container can be considered. As an example of the structure, it is possible to provide an air reservoir between the pressing portion 43 and the container 10 to temporarily store air. Each time the pressing portion 43 is pressed, air is added to the air reservoir, and the liquid is discharged from the spout 21 by utilizing the high air pressure in the air reservoir. The air reservoir is filled with air from the pressing portion 43 via a valve, for example, to prevent backflow of air. The air in the air reservoir can be made to flow into the container 10 all at once by, for example, pressing a button or the like on the side of the outer lid 40. With this structure, high pressure can be applied to the highly viscous liquid inside the container, allowing the liquid to be smoothly discharged from the spout.

[0033] A case where the pedestal-equipped liquid-dispensing container 1 is used in a connected state will be described with reference to FIG. The pedestal-equipped liquid dispensing container 1 has a connecting portion 65 on the side of the pedestal 50, and can mechanically connect the pedestal-equipped liquid dispensing containers 1 to each other. Also, in a store or the like, if it is clear in advance that multiple uses will be made, the pedestal 50 may be structured from the beginning as an integrated unit of multiple pedestals 50. As shown in FIG. 4(a), a plurality of pedestal-equipped liquid-dispensing containers 1 are integrated together, which makes them easy to use and store. In this case, by integrating a plurality of drip receivers 70, they can be managed as a single drip receiver as shown in FIG. 4(b), which is convenient as they can be cleaned collectively.

[0034] The operation of refilling the liquid 80 will now be described with reference to FIG. When refilling container 10 with liquid 80, if inner lid 30 and outer lid 40 are simply removed from container 10, the upper part of container 10 will be at outside air pressure, causing the liquid to drip. However, if container 10 is placed on base 50 as shown in Figure 5(a), the area around spout 21 of container 10 becomes sealed area 51, where the air pressure is kept constant and there is a force pushing back liquid 80, so that even if inner lid 30 and through hole 31 are removed, there will be no dripping and liquid 80 can be refilled.

[0035] When refilling with liquid 80, the inner lid 30 and the outer lid 40 are attached after refilling by a screwing action. When the outer lid 40 is screwed on, the air pressure increases, pushing against the liquid 80, which may result in dripping. Therefore, in order to prevent the air pressure in reservoir 20 from increasing when the lid is attached after filling, it is conceivable to use valve body 47. A through hole 46 is opened near the pressing portion 43 on the upper part of the outer lid 40, and a valve body 47 is provided so as to close the through hole 46. The valve body 47 has a structure for releasing air inside the outer lid 40 to the outside and preventing air from flowing from the outside to the inside. Due to the presence of valve body 47, when the air pressure inside container 10 increases by screwing outer lid 40 onto reservoir 20, the air is discharged to the outside through valve body 47, making it possible to maintain a constant air pressure inside container 10. Therefore, there is no need to worry about liquid dripping when tightening outer lid 40 after refilling with liquid 80, which is convenient. Furthermore, in order to prevent unnecessary pressure from being applied to the valve body 47 when the container 10 is tipped over during normal use, causing the liquid 80 to flow out through the valve body 47, a rotating portion 44 may be added so that the valve body 47 does not normally function (Figure 5(b)). This configuration eliminates the need to worry about dripping when refilling with liquid 80, and is convenient because there is no need to worry about problems caused by the valve body 47 during normal use.

[0036] 5(c) and (d), an operation for preventing dripping during refilling of liquid 80 by increasing the amount of adhesion of O-ring (upper part) 63 and raising the air pressure in sealed area 51 will be described. Typically, the O-ring (upper) 63 and the O-ring (lower) 64 are used to tightly seal the side of the storage section 20 against the container mounting section 62 when the container 10 is inserted into the base 50 and completely placed on the container mounting section 62. By increasing the diameter of O-ring (upper part) 63, a structure is created in which the side surface of reservoir 20 and O-ring (upper part) 63 of container mounting part 62 come into close contact with each other before container mounting part 62 is completely mounted thereon. 5(c) shows a state in which the side surface of the storage section 20 and the O-ring (upper part) 63 of the container mounting section 62 are in contact with each other. From this state, the sealed area 51 is formed. When the insertion of the container 10 is continued, the volume of the sealed area 51 decreases while the side surface of the storage section 20 and the O-ring (upper part) 63 remain in close contact with each other, and therefore the air pressure in the sealed area 51 increases. The increased air pressure pushes the liquid 80 up through the spout 21 . Therefore, even if the outer lid 40 is removed in this state, refilled with liquid 80, and the outer lid 40 is screwed back on, the air pressure in the sealed area 51 is sufficiently higher than the air pressure in the reservoir 20, so that the outer lid 40 can be tightened without dripping. Therefore, there is no need to worry about dripping when refilling with liquid 80, which is convenient.

[0037] Moreover, pressing unit 43 may be electrically powered. By having pressing unit 43 equipped with an electric pump, a battery, etc., a user can drip liquid 80 with little force by turning on the switch of the electric pump, without having to perform an operation such as pressing pressing unit 43. In particular, when dispensing viscous condiments such as mayonnaise or ketchup, the electrically operated type is convenient because it makes it possible to easily obtain a large air pressure.

[0038] In this way, with the liquid pouring container with base 1 of the present invention, an appropriate amount of liquid 80 such as seasoning can be poured without tilting the container 10, and since the spout does not come into contact with the base 50 or the like during storage, it can be stored hygienically, thereby contributing to improved convenience for users.

[0039] Furthermore, by having the inner lid 30 having the through hole 31, the outer lid 40 and the pressing portion 43 are prevented from being unnecessarily soiled with liquid 80 such as seasoning, making it easy to manage and convenient.

[0040] Furthermore, since the drip receiver 70 has the recess 71 and is detachable, only the recess 71 of the drip receiver 70 can be washed, which is convenient.

[0041] Furthermore, since the bases 50 can be connected to each other, it is easy and convenient to manage a plurality of liquids 80 such as seasonings.

[0042] Furthermore, since container 10 is held only by the sides, spout 21 does not come into contact with base 50 and the like, and base 50 is sealed, spout 21 can be maintained hygienically.

[0043] The container 10 and base 50 are in even circumferential contact via an O-ring, which allows the container 10 to be stably supported while keeping the area around the spout 21 sealed from the outside, which is advantageous.

[0044] By adopting a structure in which the outer lid 40 has an openable and closable hole, it is possible to drip liquid 80 such as seasoning without pressing the pressing portion 43. This makes it convenient because the amount of dripping can be easily adjusted over a wide range, for example when one wishes to drip a relatively large amount.

[0045] By adopting a structure in which the valve body 47 is provided on the outer lid 40, there is no need to worry about dripping when refilling with liquid 80 such as seasoning, which is convenient.

[0046] By making the pressing portion electrically operated, the air pressure can be easily changed and the layout of the switch can be freely selected, which is advantageous in terms of product design. [Industrial Applicability]
