Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a dual-liquid discharge member for discharging two contents, and a dual-liquid discharge device using the dual-liquid discharge member. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1 discloses a discharge device including a discharge container that discharges a first content and a second content from separate stems and a discharge member attached to the discharge container. The discharge member is provided with a discharge nozzle that guides the first and second contents to the outside without mixing them. In a plan view, the nozzle portion of the discharge nozzle extends in a direction perpendicular to the line connecting the two stems, and two discharge holes opening at the tip are aligned in a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the nozzle portion. This discharge nozzle can discharge the first and second contents in a double line, with the first and second contents aligned approximately parallel, by tilting the entire discharge device so that the discharge holes face downward and discharging while moving the discharge device in the axial direction of the discharge container. Discharging in a double line makes it easier to visually identify abnormalities, such as one of the contents not being discharged. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2019-182538 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] With the discharge nozzle of the above configuration, it is difficult to discharge the contents in a double line when the discharge device is not held in the hand but is placed on a sink or table, for example. To discharge the contents in a double line, the brush or palm of the hand that receives the contents must be moved in a direction approximately perpendicular to the line connecting the two discharge holes. However, this movement causes the brush or palm to hit the discharge device. If the brush or palm is moved in a way that avoids the discharge device, the direction of movement becomes approximately parallel to the line connecting the two discharge holes, resulting in one content being discharged on top of the other.

[0005] An object of the present invention is to provide a two-liquid dispensing member that makes it easy to visually recognize that two contents are being dispensed. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The two-liquid discharge member of the present invention comprises a first connection port 42b1 connected to the first stem 21a, a second connection port 42b2 connected to the second stem 22a, a nozzle portion 52 extending laterally, a first discharge port 52a opening at the tip of the nozzle portion 52 for discharging the first content C1 from the first stem 21a, and a second discharge port 52b opening at the tip of the nozzle portion 52 for discharging the second content C2 from the second stem 22a, wherein the second discharge port 52b is set back more than the first discharge port 52a, and in a planar view, the straight line L1 connecting the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b is approximately parallel to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52 or is inclined and not perpendicular to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52.

[0007] In the two-liquid discharge member, the second connection port 42b2 is preferably set back from the first connection port 42b1.

[0008] Furthermore, it is preferable that the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b overlap in the vertical direction, and the combined shape of the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b is either an approximately ellipse, an approximately track shape, an approximately rectangular shape, or an approximately diamond shape, with the longitudinal direction of the shape facing up and down.

[0009] It is also preferable that the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b open obliquely downward.

[0010] The two-liquid discharge device of the present invention is characterized in that the two-liquid discharge member 4 is attached to a discharge container 3 having a first stem 21a and a second stem 22a. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] In the two-liquid discharge member and two-liquid discharge device of the present invention, the second discharge outlet is set back more than the first discharge outlet, and in a plan view, the line connecting the first discharge outlet and the second discharge outlet is approximately parallel to the extension direction of the nozzle portion or is inclined and not perpendicular to the extension direction of the nozzle portion. Therefore, if a brush or the like is moved in a direction that does not hit the two-liquid discharge member or two-liquid discharge device, the two contents can be automatically discharged in a double line.

[0012] In the dual-liquid discharge member, when the second connection port is set back from the first connection port, the difference in length between the second discharge path from the second connection port to the second discharge port and the first discharge path from the first connection port to the first discharge port can be reduced or eliminated, making it easier to discharge the two contents substantially simultaneously and to visually confirm that the two contents are being discharged.

[0013] When the first and second discharge outlets overlap in the vertical direction, and the combined shape of the first and second discharge outlets is elliptical, track-shaped, rectangular, or approximately diamond-shaped, and the longitudinal direction of the shape is oriented vertically, one content is less likely to overlap the other content compared to when the longitudinal direction is oriented horizontally, making it easier to visually confirm that two contents are being discharged.

[0014] When the first discharge port and the second discharge port are open obliquely downward, scattering of the contents during discharge can be suppressed. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] Next, a two-liquid discharge device 2 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. As shown in Fig. 1, the two-liquid discharge device 2 includes a discharge container 3 and a two-liquid discharge member 4 attached to the discharge container 3.

[0017] First, the discharge container 3 will be described. The discharge container 3 is a so-called pressure-resistant container, and is an airtight container including a container body 10 and a valve assembly 20 attached to the container body 10.

[0018] The container body 10 is made of a metal such as tinplate or aluminum. The container body 10 includes a substantially disk-shaped bottom 10a, a substantially cylindrical body 10b extending upward from the outer edge of the bottom 10a, a substantially tapered shoulder 10c tapering upward from the upper end of the body 10b, a substantially cylindrical neck 10d provided at the upper end of the shoulder 10c, a ring-shaped bead 10e at the upper end of the neck 10d, and an opening 10f opening at the upper end of the bead 10e. The container body 10 may also be made of a synthetic resin such as polyethylene terephthalate, in which case a thick flange is provided instead of the bead 10e.

[0019] As shown in Figure 2, the valve assembly 20 includes a first valve 21, a second valve 22, a valve holder 23 that houses the first valve 21 and the second valve 22, and a mounting cup 24 for fixing the valve holder 23 to the opening 10f of the container body 10.

[0020] The first valve 21 includes a first stem 21a with a stem hole 21a1, a stem rubber 21b that closes the stem hole 21a1, a biasing member (spring) 21c that constantly biases the first stem 21a upward and maintains the stem rubber 21b closing the stem hole 21a1, a housing 21d that accommodates the first stem 21a, the stem rubber 21b, and the biasing member 21c, and a cover cap 21e that secures the first stem 21a, the stem rubber 21b, and the biasing member 21c to the housing 21d. When the first stem 21a is pushed down (pushed toward the housing 21d) or tilted, the first valve 21 opens, releasing the stem rubber 21b from closing the stem hole 21a1, and the first valve 21 opens. A first inner container 25 (see Figure 1), such as a pouch for containing the first contents C1, is attached to the lower end of the housing 21d, and when the stem hole 21a1 is unblocked by the stem rubber 21b, the first contents C1 are ejected to the outside from the first stem 21a.

[0021] The second valve 22 has the same configuration as the first valve 21. However, the stem of the second valve 22 is referred to as a second stem 22a. Furthermore, a pouch or the like attached to the lower end of the housing 21d of the second valve 22 is referred to as a second inner container 26 (see FIG. 1).

[0022] The valve holder 23 is generally cylindrical, and its lower portion is housed in the neck portion 10d of the container body 10. As shown in Fig. 2, the valve holder 23 has two housing holes 23a that penetrate vertically and are arranged side by side in a plan view. The first valve 21 is housed in one of the two housing holes 23a, and the second valve 22 is housed in the other. In this housed state, the first stem 21a and the second stem 22a are aligned horizontally at the same height.

[0023] The mounting cup 24 is roughly cup-shaped and is turned upside down, and covers the valve holder 23 from above, which houses the first valve 21 and the second valve 22. The lower end is fixed to the bead portion 10e of the container body 10 by, for example, crimping.

[0024] 3A, the planar shape of the mounting cup 24 is approximately D-shaped and is composed of one arcuate portion 24a and one linear portion 24b. This is for restricting the direction when the dual liquid discharging member 4 is attached to the dispensing container 3. That is, on the inner surface of a shoulder cover 30 (described later) of the dual liquid discharging member 4, a direction restricting portion (a convex portion 32a (described later: see FIG. 3B)) is provided that comes into contact with the arcuate portion 24a and prevents attachment, but does not come into contact with the linear portion 24b, allowing attachment, so that the dual liquid discharging member 4 can be attached only when oriented in a certain direction relative to the dispensing container 3. This ensures that a first connecting port 42b1 (described later) can be reliably connected to the first stem 21a, and a second connecting port 42b2 (described later) can be reliably connected to the second stem 22a, even though the cylindrical dispensing container 3 has two stems.

[0025] The dispensing container 3 having the above-described configuration is filled with two contents and a pressurizing agent P for discharging the contents. Specifically, as shown in Fig. 1, the first inner container 25 is filled with the first content C1, the second inner container 26 is filled with the second content C2, and the spaces between the first inner container 25 or the second inner container 26 and the container body 10 are filled with the pressurizing agent P.

[0026] The contents are two-component reactive contents that exert their effects by reacting two types of contents. Examples include two-component warming agents, two-component heat-generating agents, two-component cooling agents, two-component gelling agents, two-component film-forming agents, two-component adhesives, two-component hair dyes, and two-component perm agents. However, it does not necessarily have to be a two-component reactive type; contents that exert two effects can also be used. Examples include sunscreen and antiperspirant, sunscreen and pest repellent, hand sanitizer and moisturizer, foundation and antiperspirant, lotion and cosmetic coating agent, etc.

[0027] Examples of the pressurizing agent P include liquefied gases, compressed gases, and mixtures thereof. Examples of the liquefied gas include normal butane, isobutane, propane, and mixtures thereof such as liquefied petroleum gas, dimethyl ether, hydrofluoroolefins, and mixtures thereof. Examples of the compressed gas include nitrogen, air, oxygen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide, and the pressure at 25°C is 0.2 to 1.0 MPa.

[0028] The method of filling the contents and pressurizing agent P into the discharge container 3 is not particularly limited, but for example, before sealing the container body 10 with the valve assembly 20, the container body 10 is under-cup-filled with the pressurizing agent P, and after sealing the container body 10 with the valve assembly 20, the first contents C1 are filled into the first inner container 25 from the first stem 21a, and the second contents C2 are filled into the second inner container 26 from the second stem 22a. The two-liquid discharge device 2 filled with the first contents C1, the second contents C2, and the pressurizing agent P becomes the two-liquid discharge product 1.

[0029] Next, we will explain the two-liquid discharge member 4. As shown in Fig. 1, the two-liquid discharge member 4 includes a shoulder cover 30 that covers the shoulder portion 10c of the discharge container 3, a main body portion 40 attached to the upper part of the shoulder cover 30, a discharge nozzle 50 attached to a connecting portion 42 (described later) of the main body portion 40, and an operating portion 60 attached to the upper part of the main body portion 40.

[0030] First, the shoulder cover 30 will be described. As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B , the shoulder cover 30 is generally bell-shaped overall and includes an expanded diameter portion 31 whose diameter expands downward, a cup portion 32 provided at the upper end of the expanded diameter portion 31, and a rising wall 33 rising from the upper surface of the cup portion 32. The expanded diameter portion 31 is a portion that mainly covers the shoulder portion 10c of the container body 10. An engaging claw 31a for engaging with the dispensing container 3 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the expanded diameter portion 31. The cup portion 32 is a portion that mainly covers the valve assembly 20. A convex portion 32a corresponding to the linear portion 24b of the valve assembly 20 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the cup portion 32 (see FIG. 3B ). This convex portion 32a serves as a direction restricting portion when attaching the two-liquid dispensing member 4 to the dispensing container 3. An engaging protrusion 32b for engaging with the main body 40 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cup portion 32. A generally convex, flat avoidance hole 32c is provided on the top surface of the cup portion 32 to avoid interference with the connecting portion 42, which swings up and down during dispensing. A rising wall 33 is provided so as to surround the outer periphery of this avoidance hole 32c, and guides the swinging of the connecting portion 42.

[0031] The main body 40 includes a cylindrical portion 41 and a connecting portion 42 located within the cylindrical portion 41. A notch 41a is provided at the front of the cylindrical portion 41 to allow a nozzle portion 52 (described later) of the discharge nozzle 50 to extend outward. To ensure a sufficient range of motion for the operating portion 60, the height of the portion facing the notch 41a in a plan view is kept low. The cylindrical portion 41 is provided with an engagement hole 41b1 that engages with the engagement protrusion 32b. Specifically, the cylindrical portion 41 is provided with an engagement / disengagement operating portion 41b that can swing like a seesaw, and the engagement hole 41b1 is provided at the bottom of the engagement / disengagement operating portion 41b. To remove the main body 40 from the shoulder cover 30, the top of the engagement / disengagement operating portion 41b is pushed inward and the bottom is pushed outward, thereby disengaging the engagement protrusion 32b from the engagement hole 41b1.

[0032] The connecting portion 42 includes a linking portion 42a extending from the inner surface of the cylindrical portion 41 and a swinging portion 42b connected to the tip of the linking portion 42a and capable of swinging up and down. The linking portion 42a includes a hinge 42a1 that enables the swinging portion 42b to swing (rotate). The swinging portion 42b has a generally oval shape in a plan view and is provided with two internal passages that penetrate in the up and down direction. The lower portion of one internal passage is a first connection port 42b1 that is connected to the first stem 21a, and the lower portion of the other internal passage is a second connection port 42b2 that is connected to the second stem 22a.

[0033] The discharge nozzle 50 includes a base 51 having substantially the same shape as the swinging portion 42b in a plan view, and a nozzle portion 52 extending mainly in the horizontal direction (forward) from the base 51. An abutment portion 51a protruding upward is provided on the upper surface of the base 51 to abut against an abutment portion 61b (described later) of the operating portion 60. A first discharge port 52a for discharging the first content C1 and a second discharge port 52b for discharging the second content C2 are provided at the tip of the nozzle portion 52.

[0034] The discharge nozzle 50 has two internal passages that run from the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b through the nozzle portion 52 and the base portion 51, respectively, and open at the lower end of the base portion 51. By attaching the base portion 51 so that it overlaps with the swinging portion 42b, the internal passages communicate with each other, forming a first passage 70 that connects the first connection port 42b1 and the first discharge port 52a, and a second passage 80 that connects the second connection port 42b2 and the second discharge port 52b, as shown in Fig. 5. The first passage 70 and the second passage 80, which serve as discharge paths for the contents, are independent of each other, and the first contents C1 and the second contents C2 do not mix within the two-liquid discharge member 4. The first passage 70 and the second passage 80 each include vertical passages 71, 81 that are located mainly in the swinging portion 42b and the base portion 51 and extend vertically, and horizontal passages 72, 82 that are located mainly in the nozzle portion 52 and extend horizontally from the upper portions of the vertical passages 71, 81. The vertical passage 71 of the first passage 70 is longer than the vertical passage 81 of the second passage 80, and a portion of the horizontal passage 72 of the first passage 70 overlaps the horizontal passage 82 of the second passage 80. The tip of the nozzle portion 52 is curved obliquely downward, and the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b open obliquely downward.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 6, the first outlet 52a and the second outlet 52b are vertically overlapping with the first outlet 52a facing upward. The combined shape of the first outlet 52a and the second outlet 52b is generally elliptical, with the longitudinal direction of the ellipse facing up and down. When the longitudinal direction faces up and down in this manner, one content is less likely to overlap the other, making it easier to visually confirm that two contents are being discharged, compared to when the longitudinal direction faces horizontally. The combined shape of the first outlet 52a and the second outlet 52b may be generally track-shaped, rectangular, or diamond-shaped.

[0036] As shown in FIG. 7, the second outlet 52b is set back from the first outlet 52a when viewed from the tip of the nozzle portion 52. In a plan view, a straight line L1 connecting the first outlet 52a and the second outlet 52b is substantially parallel to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52. In FIG. 7, the straight line L1 and the extension direction L2 overlap. Therefore, if the contents are discharged while moving a brush or the like in a direction substantially perpendicular to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52 so as not to interfere with the two-liquid discharge device 2, the two contents C1 and C2 can be automatically discharged in a double line. The straight line L1 connecting the first outlet 52a and the second outlet 52b does not necessarily have to be substantially parallel to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52; it can simply be tilted so as not to be perpendicular to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52. In this case, the contents C1 and C2 can be discharged in a double line, although they will partially overlap each other. The inclination of the straight line L1 with respect to the straight line L2 is preferably within 45 degrees in a plan view, and more preferably within 30 degrees.

[0037] Because the second discharge port 52b is set back from the first discharge port 52a, a difference in length occurs between the horizontal passages 72, 82 of the first passage 70 and the second passage 80. To eliminate this difference, the second connection port 42b2 is set back from the first connection port 42b1 when viewed from the tip of the nozzle portion 52. Furthermore, the vertical passage 71 is made longer than the vertical passage 81. As a result, the difference in length between the first passage 70 and the second passage 80 is reduced or eliminated, allowing the first content C1 and the second content C2 to be discharged approximately simultaneously. Note that the setback of the second discharge port 52b is achieved by tilting (rotating) the discharge container 3 with respect to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52 in a plan view. The rotation angle α is, for example, 20 to 70 degrees, preferably 30 to 60 degrees, and more preferably 40 to 50 degrees. In FIG. 7, the angle is 45 degrees, and the straight line L3 connecting the first connection port 42b1 and the second connection port 42b2 is inclined at 45 degrees.

[0038] In this embodiment, the distance from the position where a horizontal line H1 tangent to the lower end of the tip of the nozzle portion 52 and an extension line L4 of the horizontal passage 72 of the first passage 70 intersect to the first connection port 42b1 is adjusted to be equal to the distance from the position where the horizontal line H1 and an extension line L5 of the horizontal passage 82 of the second passage 80 intersect to the second connection port 42b2 in a side view (see FIG. 5). Also, the volume of the first passage 70 and the volume of the second passage 80 are adjusted to be equal.

[0039] As shown in Figures 4A and 4B, the operating unit 60 for performing the discharge operation includes a disk portion 61 located above the discharge nozzle 50 and a finger grip portion 62 extending rearward from the disk portion 61. A shaft portion 61a is provided in front of the disk portion 61, and the operating unit 60 is pivotally supported on the main body 40 by this shaft portion 61a so as to be rotatable in the up and down direction. The rotation axis of the shaft portion 61a is inclined with respect to the rotation axis of the hinge 42a1 in a plan view. An abutting portion 61b that abuts against the abutted portion 51a is provided on the underside of the disk portion 61.

[0040] As shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B , the dual-liquid dispensing member 4 configured as described above can dispense the contents C1 and C2 by operating the operating portion 60. Specifically, by placing a finger or the like on the finger rest 62 and pushing it downward, the rotating operating portion 60 is pushed in, causing the connecting portion 42 to rotate downward. As a result, the first stem 21a and the second stem 22a are pushed in and open substantially simultaneously. The first content C1 is dispensed from the first outlet 52a via the first passage 70, and the second content C2 is dispensed from the second outlet 52b via the second passage 80. As shown in FIG. 8B , the contents C1 and C2 are dispensed side by side in the front-to-back direction. Therefore, by moving a brush or the like in a direction substantially perpendicular to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52 (i.e., left-to-right, e.g., the direction of the arrow in the figure), the two contents C1 and C2 can be dispensed in a double line. This makes the dual-liquid dispensing member suitable for stationary use and allows for a larger volume of contents than handheld products.

[0041] To stop the discharge of the contents C1 and C2, the discharge operation can be stopped. Specifically, the pushing can be stopped by removing the fingers from the finger hook 62. When the discharge operation is stopped, the stems 21a and 22a return to their original positions before being pushed in by the biasing force of the biasing member 21c, and the valves 21 and 22 are closed again.

[0042] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments and can be modified and implemented within the scope of the present invention. For example, in the two-fluid dispensing nozzle of FIG. 7, the line L1 connecting the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b is inclined relative to the line L3 connecting the first connection port 42b1 and the second connection port 42b2 in a plan view, but it may be parallel. Even in this case, if the line L1 connecting the first discharge port 52a and the second discharge port 52b is inclined rather than perpendicular to the extension direction L2 of the nozzle portion 52, double-line dispensing can be achieved. Furthermore, the dispensing container 3 may be a dual-connected dispensing container in which a first dispensing container filled with a first content and a pressurizing agent is connected to a second dispensing container filled with a second content and a pressurizing agent.
