Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a liquid content dispensing container, and more particularly to a liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure in which an elastic body is deformed by the dispensing pressure of the liquid content and a nozzle valve coupled to the elastic body opens and closes the nozzle discharge port, thereby stably maintaining the sealing inside the nozzle and the restoring force of the elastic body. [Background technology]

[0002] In today's modern society, people of all ages and genders use cosmetics as needed due to the rapid diversification of the times. In particular, women use a wide variety of cosmetics and cosmetic products and tools in a wide range of colors, and a wide variety of high-quality cosmetic products and tools are sold on the market every day thanks to research and development by cosmetic-related businesses.

[0003] The above cosmetics can be classified according to their purpose of use into facial cleansing cosmetics used to remove sebum, waste products and pollutants from the surface of the skin, basic cosmetics used to properly supply moisture and oil to the skin, color cosmetics used to express beautiful colors, hair cosmetics used to remove foreign matter from the hair or scalp while protecting and nourishing the hair, and perfumes used by dissolving fragrances in alcohol or the like to let others smell them.

[0004] Meanwhile, as interest in the stability of cosmetic compositions and skin beauty has increased due to the improvement of living standards, cosmetics are increasingly being manufactured from natural raw materials. Such cosmetics do not contain preservatives to minimize irritation to the skin, and therefore have a disadvantage of being more susceptible to deterioration than cosmetics manufactured from chemical raw materials. For example, the cosmetics may be contaminated or deteriorated due to the penetration of bacteria or oxidation of the composition upon contact with the outside air during use.

[0005] In addition, in order to store and use cosmetics in liquid or gel form, such as lotions, creams, gels, shampoos, rinses, etc., among the above cosmetics, containers having a simple opening and closing function are generally used, and the cosmetics are taken out of the containers with a spatula or fingers and applied to the skin or hair. Such conventional containers cannot constantly control the amount of cosmetics dispensed, which causes the cosmetics to be wasted.

[0006] Therefore, pump-type cosmetic containers have been developed that minimize contact between the cosmetic and the outside air, are convenient to use, and can adjust the amount of cosmetic dispensed to a constant level.

[0007] The pump-type cosmetic container includes a container body in which the contents are stored, a pressure-type pump provided at the opening of the container body and operated by pressing, and a nozzle head coupled to the upper part of the container body while connected to the pressure-type pump. When the nozzle head exposed to the outside is pressed downward, the contents stored in the container body are discharged to the outside in a fixed amount by the pumping operation of the pressure-type pump.

[0008] The above-mentioned pump-type cosmetic container is economical because the contents stored in the container body are not exposed to the outside air and the contents are not excessively discharged through the nozzle outlet, and has the advantage of being convenient to use because it can be operated even when the container body is placed on the floor.

[0009] However, the pump-type cosmetic container has a problem that the discharge port for discharging the contents to the outside is always open, and the discharged contents do not come out completely, but flow down the bottom of the nozzle, causing a stain. In addition, the contents remaining in the discharge port and discharge flow path harden and clog the discharge port while being exposed to the outside for a long time, or become contaminated or the ingredients change, resulting in unhygienic problems.

[0010] In order to solve such problems, Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2012-0017628 discloses a nozzle structure of a dispenser pump button. The conventional technology includes an outer nozzle having a predetermined length to form a passage through which the contents move, one side of which is open so that the contents can flow in through the outlet and the other side of which is formed with a discharge hole so that the flowed-in contents can be discharged, a blocking bar accommodated inside the outer nozzle and opening and closing the outer nozzle by moving forward and backward to open and close the discharge hole, an elastic body coupled to the end of the blocking bar and moving the blocking bar forward and backward, and an inner nozzle composed of an elastic body support part coupled to the end of the elastic body to support the elastic body and formed with a content inlet hole.

[0011] However, the conventional technology has a problem that the self-restoring force is poor when the bellows-type elastic body is repeatedly compressed by the discharge pressure of the contents and is used for a long period of time.In addition, the conventional technology has a problem that the contents remaining inside the discharge hole of the outer nozzle are pushed out by the blocking bar at the moment when the blocking bar moves backward and then forward due to the contraction and restoration of the elastic body due to the discharge pressure of the contents, which causes an unhygienic problem in that the surroundings of the discharge port are soiled.

[0012] [Patent Document 1] Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2012-0017628 (Published on February 29, 2012) Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0013] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure that prevents a decrease in the restoring force due to repeated compression of the elastic body, by opening and closing the nozzle outlet from the outside while the elastic body is stretched and restored by the discharge pressure of the liquid content and a nozzle valve coupled to the elastic body opens and closes the nozzle outlet from the outside, thereby stably maintaining the sealing inside the nozzle and preventing a decrease in the restoring force due to repeated compression of the elastic body. [Means for solving the problem]

[0014] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure, the container including: a container body storing liquid content therein; dispensing means connected to the container body for dispensing the liquid content; a push button connected to the dispensing means to operate the dispensing means and having a discharge flow path formed therein; a nozzle coupled to one side of the push button and having a discharge outlet formed therein; an elastic body formed inside the nozzle and elastically deformable; and a nozzle blocking means comprising a nozzle valve that moves back and forth by the elastic body to open and close the discharge outlet, wherein the elastic body extends from the inside to the outside of the nozzle, causing the nozzle valve to separate from the discharge outlet to open the discharge outlet, and the elastic body is restored, causing the nozzle valve to cover the discharge outlet from the outside to close the discharge outlet.

[0015] The container body is characterized in that it is composed of an inner container in which a liquid content is contained, and an outer container surrounding the outside of the inner container.

[0016] In addition, a shoulder may be further coupled to one side of the container body, and the push button may be coupled to the shoulder to be linearly movable.

Therefore, the terms used in the present invention should be defined not simply as names of terms, but based on the meanings that the terms have and the overall content of the present invention.

[0031] In the present invention, when a part "comprises" a certain component, this does not mean that other components are excluded, but that other components may be further included, unless otherwise specified to the contrary.

[0032] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] FIG. 1 is an oblique view of a liquid content dispensing container according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an exploded oblique view of a liquid content dispensing container according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a liquid content dispensing container according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0034] As shown in the figure, a liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured to include a container body 10, a dispensing means 20, a push button 30, a nozzle 40, and a nozzle blocking means 50.

[0035] The liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with respect to each component.

[0036] The container body 10 may be composed of an inner container 12 having an internal space in which a liquid content is accommodated, and an outer container 14 into which the inner container 12 is inserted.

[0037] The inner container 12 is a storage container in which liquid contents are stored, and the inside is maintained in a vacuum state to safely store the liquid contents. The liquid contents can include any liquid or gel contents such as cosmetics, shampoo, or soap. The inner container 12 is formed of an oxygen barrier material or an aluminum material. In particular, it is preferable to form it of a polyketone (a high-performance thermoplastic polymer, a new material made by copolymerizing carbon monoxide, ethylene, and propylene) or Pokal (a new material that improves moisture resistance and flexibility by mixing polyketone and EVOH at a certain ratio) material with low oxygen permeability.

[0038] 2, the inner container 12 may be composed of a soft container 12a containing liquid contents therein, and a hard joint 12b joined to the container 12a. An inlet 12c through which the liquid contents are injected is formed on one side of the joint 12b, and at least a part of the discharge means 20 is inserted and installed in the inlet 12c. Here, the inner container 12 may be formed as a pouch container whose shape changes as the liquid contents contained therein are consumed, or may be formed as various types such as a general vacuum container, a short container for a dip tube, a blown container, or a glass container.

[0039] The outer container 14 protects the inner container 12 while surrounding the outside of the inner container 12. The outer container 14 is a hard cylinder with one side open, constituting the appearance of a liquid content dispensing container. Of course, the outer container 14 is not limited to a cylindrical shape, and may be formed in various shapes or materials in consideration of the type of content stored therein, usability, design elements, etc. However, it is preferable that the outer container 14 is narrow in width, relatively long in length, and has a gentle bottom so that the user can easily hold it in his / her hand and easily stand it on the floor.

[0040] Meanwhile, a shoulder 60 may be further coupled to one side of the outer container 14 of the container body 10. The shoulder 60 covers the open portion of the outer container 14 and protects the discharge means 20 provided in the container body 10, and the push button 30 may be coupled to the shoulder 60 so as to be movable in a straight line. The shoulder 60 includes a closure plate 62 extending outward from the center, a first upper extension protrusion 64 extending upward from the closure plate 62, and a second upper extension protrusion 66 extending upward from the first upper extension protrusion 64 at a predetermined distance outward. The closure plate 62 is coupled to one side of the outer container 14 while covering it, and the first upper extension protrusion 64 and the second upper extension protrusion 66 contact the inner periphery of the push button 30 to guide the linear reciprocating movement of the push button 30.

[0041] The discharge means 20 is provided inside the shoulder 60 and connected to the inner container 12 of the container body 10, and is operated by pressing the push button 30 to discharge the liquid content contained in the inner container 12. The discharge means 20 is fitted between the inner container 12 and the shoulder 60 and fixedly connected, with at least a portion inserted into the inlet of the inner container 12 and connected to the inner container 12, and the remaining portion penetrating the center of the shoulder 60 and connected to the push button 30. Here, the discharge means 20 is preferably a pump that discharges a fixed amount of the liquid content by pumping.

[0042] As shown in FIG. 3, the discharge means 20 may include a cylinder 21 that is inserted into the inlet of the inner container 12 and has a content suction port 21a formed at its bottom, a content suction pipe 22 that extends from the content suction port 21a and is inserted into the inside of the inner container 12, a suction valve plate 23 that opens and closes the content suction port 21a of the cylinder 21, a sealing cap 24 that is coupled to and surrounds the upper part of the cylinder 21, a stem 25 that reciprocates in the pumping direction while penetrating the sealing cap 24, an elastic spring 26 that elastically supports the stem 25, a working discharge pipe 27 that is coupled to the stem 25 and reciprocates therewith, and a working discharge ring 28 that is fitted around the working discharge pipe 27 and closely contacts the inner periphery of the cylinder 21.

[0043] Meanwhile, a sealing ring 29 is further formed between the cylinder 21 of the discharge means 20 and the inner container 12 to increase the sealing force of the inner container 12. Here, the sealing ring 29 is made of an elastic material to further improve the sealing force of the inner container 12, and is preferably made of one or more materials selected from the group consisting of urethane rubber, natural rubber, elastomer, NBR (nitrile-butadiene rubber), and silicone, or polypropylene, polyethylene, and ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) materials having elasticity. In particular, it is most preferable to make the sealing ring 29 of a TPE (Thermo Plastic Elastomer) material, which is an intermediate material between rubber and plastic, having softness and excellent durability.

[0044] The push button 30 is connected to one side of the discharge means 20 and operates the discharge means 20 while vertically reciprocating when pressed by a user, and can reciprocate within a certain range while contacting the outer periphery of the first upper extension ring 64 and the second upper extension ring 66 of the shoulder 60.

[0045] A discharge flow passage 32 is formed inside the push button 30. One end of the discharge flow passage 32 is connected to the discharge means 20, and the other end is connected to the nozzle 40. The discharge flow passage 32 is a passage through which the liquid contents discharged by the discharge means 20 passes, and at the same time, is a space into which the nozzle 40 and the nozzle blocking means 50 are inserted and installed. The discharge flow passage 32 may be formed by extending vertically for a certain distance from the lower center end of the push button 30 and extending horizontally at a certain point across the inner space of the push button 30. Meanwhile, the push button 30 may be formed in a double structure of an inner button 34 and an outer button 36, and the discharge flow passage 32 may be formed in the inner button 34.

[0046] The nozzle 40 is coupled to one side of the push button 30 and protrudes outward from the push button 30. As shown in Fig. 2, the nozzle 40 has a hollow tube shape, at least a portion of which is inserted into the inside of the push button 30 and connected to the discharge passage 32, and a discharge port 42 is formed on the opposite side to discharge the liquid content that has passed through the discharge passage 32 to the outside.

[0047] The nozzle 40 is extended in the same direction as the discharge passage 32 for smooth discharge and ease of use of the liquid content, and a nozzle blocking means 50 may be inserted into the internal space of the nozzle 40. That is, the nozzle 40 is fixedly coupled to one end of the discharge passage 32, with one portion inserted into the discharge passage 32 of the push button 30 and the other portion protruding outward from the push button 30.

[0048] Meanwhile, a locking claw 44 is protrudingly formed on the inner periphery of the nozzle 40, and at least a part of the nozzle valve 54 is locked by the locking claw 44. The locking claw 44 is in the shape of a ring extending around the inner periphery of the nozzle 40, and may be formed adjacent to the outlet 42 by partially reducing the inner diameter of the nozzle 40. In other words, the locking claw 44 is protrudingly formed on the inside of the nozzle 40, and restricts the nozzle valve 54 from being completely inserted into the inner space of the nozzle 40 from the outside while being pulled by the elastic body 52, so that the nozzle valve 54 opens or closes the outlet 42 of the nozzle 40 from the outside.

[0049] The nozzle blocking means 50 is formed inside the nozzle 40 and opens or closes the outlet 42 of the nozzle 40 while being elastically deformed by the discharge pressure of the liquid contents.

[0050] The nozzle shutoff means 50 may be composed of an elastic body 52 and a nozzle valve 54 coupled to the elastic body 52 and reciprocating to open and close the outlet 42. As the elastic body 52 expands from the inside of the nozzle 40 toward the outlet 42, the nozzle valve 54 separates from the outlet 42 to open the outlet 42, and as the elastic body 52 restores, the nozzle valve 54 covers the outlet 42 from the outside to close the outlet 42.

[0051] As shown in FIG. 3, the elastic body 52 may include a locking portion 52a, an elastic portion 52b extending from the locking portion 52a and elastically deforming, and a coupling portion 52c formed at an end of the elastic portion 52b to which a nozzle valve 54 is coupled.

[0052] The locking portion 52a is formed at one end of the elastic body 52 and can serve as a fixing shaft of the elastic body 52 which is elastically deformed inside the nozzle 40. The locking portion 52a is formed in a ring shape so that the liquid contents can pass through the center, and the diameter of the locking portion 52a is formed relatively larger than the inner diameter of the nozzle 40. The locking portion 52a is locked and fixed to one end of the nozzle 40, i.e., the end of the nozzle 40 portion inserted into the discharge flow passage 32, and when a discharge pressure of the liquid contents is generated, the elastic body 52 elastically extends toward the discharge port 42 of the nozzle 40 based on the locking portion 52a.

[0053] The elastic part 52b is a part that is restored by tension (the phenomenon in which an object stretches when a certain force acts outward parallel to the central axis of an object) or self-elasticity due to the discharge pressure of the liquid content, and connects the locking part 52a and the connecting part 52c, and the liquid content moves into the inner space. The elastic part 52b is preferably in the shape of a cylindrical screw in which at least one line is wound side by side at a certain angle around a virtual axis that passes through the locking part 52a and the connecting part 52c.

[0054] The coupling part 52c may be composed of a coupling ring 52c-1 and at least one coupling rib 52c-2 that couples the coupling ring 52c-1 and the elastic part 52b while being spaced apart at a certain interval. The coupling ring 52c-1 has a hole formed in the center to receive the nozzle valve 54, and the liquid content moves along the center of the locking part 52a and the inner space of the elastic part 52b, and then passes through the space between the coupling ribs 52c-2. At this time, the outer diameter of the coupling part 52c is formed relatively smaller than the inner diameter of the nozzle 40, so that the liquid content moves through the gap between the nozzle 40 and the coupling part 52c.

[0055] Meanwhile, the elastic body 52 is an injection spring made of a synthetic resin material by injection molding, and is preferably provided in the inner space of the nozzle 40 .

[0056] 2, the nozzle valve 54 is engaged with the engagement claw 44 of the nozzle 40 at least in part and exposed to the outside of the nozzle 40, and opens and closes the outlet 42 of the nozzle 40 from the outside. The nozzle valve 54 may include a central shaft 54a inserted into the inner space of the nozzle 40 and coupled with the elastic body 52, and a valve plate 54b extending outward from the central shaft 54a to close the outlet 42 of the nozzle 40 or to open and close the outlet 42 by being separated from the outlet 42. The central shaft 54a is fitted into the coupling ring 52c-1 while passing through a hole formed in the center of the coupling ring 52c-1 of the elastic body 52, and the valve plate 54b is formed in a disk shape and contacts one side of the engagement claw 44 of the nozzle 40. At this time, in order to ensure smooth opening and closing of the discharge port 42, it is preferable that the outer diameter of the valve plate 54b is formed relatively smaller than the inner diameter of the nozzle 40 and relatively larger than the inner diameter of the locking claws 44.

[0057] As discussed above, in the liquid content dispensing container having the nozzle blocking structure according to the embodiment of the present invention, the elastic body 52 stretches and restores due to the discharge pressure of the liquid content, and at the same time, the nozzle valve 54 connected to the elastic body 52 opens or closes the discharge port 42 of the nozzle 40 from the outside, thereby not only stably maintaining the airtightness inside the nozzle 40, but also preventing a decrease in the restoring force due to repeated compression of the elastic body 52.

[0058] 4 and 5 are diagrams illustrating the operation of a liquid content dispensing container according to an embodiment of the present invention, and the operating process of a liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to these.

[0059] FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the push button according to the embodiment of the present invention is pressed, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the push button according to the embodiment of the present invention is released from the pressed state.

[0060] In order to use a liquid content dispensing container having a nozzle blocking structure according to an embodiment of the present invention, the push button 30 is pressed to operate the dispensing means 20, as shown in Fig. 4. When the push button 30 is pressed, the stem 25 of the dispensing means 20 connected to the push button 30 and the actuation discharge pipe 27 both move downward. At this time, since the actuation discharge ring 28 is in close contact with the inner surface of the cylinder 21, only the actuation discharge pipe 27 moves downward, forming a gap between the actuation discharge pipe 27 and the actuation discharge ring 28, creating a passageway for the contents to move. When the push button 30 is pressed and continued, the lower end of the stem 25, which had been moved downward by the push button 30, pushes the actuated discharge ring 28, which then moves downward together with the actuated discharge pipe 27, reducing the volume inside the cylinder 21. As a result, the discharge pressure inside the cylinder 21 causes the suction valve plate 23 to close the contents suction port 21a, and at the same time, the liquid contents stored in the cylinder 21 are released between the actuated discharge pipe 27 and the actuated discharge ring 28 and move to the internal passage of the actuated discharge pipe 27 and the stem 25.

[0061] Next, as shown in the partially enlarged view of FIG. 4, the liquid contents discharged from the discharge means 20 flow into the inner space of the elastic body 52 through the discharge flow path 32 of the push button 30, and the elastic portion 52b of the elastic body 52 stretches outward from the locking portion 52a due to the discharge pressure of the liquid contents that have flowed into the inner space of the elastic body 52. ​​At the same time, the nozzle valve 54 connected to the elastic body 52 is separated from the locking claw 44 of the nozzle 40, opening the discharge port 42, and the liquid contents are discharged to the outside through the discharge port 42.

[0062] 5, when the push button 30 is released, the elastic spring 26 that elastically supports the stem 25 of the discharge means 20 is restored to its original shape, the stem 25 moves upward, and the operational discharge pipe 27 connected to the lower side of the stem 25 also moves upward. At this time, the lower part of the operational discharge pipe 27 pulls the operational discharge ring 28 upward, and the gap between the operational discharge pipe 27 and the operational discharge ring 28 is closed, and the operational discharge pipe 27 and the operational discharge ring 28 move upward together, so that the volume inside the cylinder 21 increases and a vacuum pressure is generated. At the same time, the suction valve plate 23 is lifted by the vacuum pressure generated inside the cylinder 21, and the contents suction port 21a formed on the bottom surface of the cylinder 21 is opened, and the liquid contents stored in the internal container 12 flow into the cylinder 21 through the contents suction pipe 22 and the contents suction port 21a, and the internal container 12 collapses by the amount of the discharged liquid contents.

[0063] At this time, as shown in the partially enlarged view of Figure 5, as the discharge pressure of the liquid contents disappears, the elastic portion 52b of the elastic body 52 is restored by its own elastic force, and at the same time, the nozzle valve 54 connected to the elastic body 52 is engaged with the engaging claw 44 of the nozzle 40, thereby closing the discharge port 42.

[0064] As described above, the present description has been given with specific details such as specific components, limited embodiments, and drawings, but these are merely provided to aid in a more general understanding of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains can make various modifications and variations from such descriptions.
