Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a dual herb inhaler container. [Background technology]

[0002] The packaging of herbal inhalers currently available on the market generally consists of an inhaler chamber and a lid. Information can be found in Thai Utility Model Application No. 1803000501 (filed on February 21, 2018, entitled "Dual-barrel inhaler"). This document discloses a related technology using a dual inhaler tube with two inhalation tubes that can be used simultaneously in both nostrils. This configuration allows for simple and quick use, and has a lower base compartment in the inhaler tube for holding liquid balm that is applied to massage specific areas. Each component is fixed to each other with interlocking pegs. The base of the inhaler tube containing the liquid balm is screwed to the top and tightly sealed so that it does not leak during use. It has been identified that there are limitations to the dual barrel inhaler design. These include the fact that both barrels release aroma simultaneously, resulting in the user inhaling excess aroma more than desired during each use. In addition, because a single cap controls the aroma-emitting portions of both inhaler tubes, even if a user chooses to use only one barrel, both aroma-emitting portions will emit aroma, resulting in unnecessary fragrance release from the unused inhaler tube.Furthermore, because the cap is completely detached from the inhaler tube when opened, it is easy to misplace, drop, or lose.

[0003] The information in Thai Utility Model Application No. 2103003709 (filed on December 20, 2021, with the name of the invention "Swing Lid Inhaler Package") discloses a prior art related to an inhaler lid. The inhaler lid has a groove for sliding open and folding, and is used to hook onto pegs arranged on each side of the inhaler tube holder, so that the inhaler lid and the tube holder do not separate, thereby addressing the problem of losing the inhaler lid. In addition, the lid has two holes at the top end for threading a string so that the inhaler can be attached to a pocket or necklace for carrying. With regard to this prior art, there is a restriction that only a single fragrance can be placed in the inhaler tube.

[0004] The information in Thai Utility Model Application No. 2203001280 (filed on May 26, 2022, with the invention title "Portable Inhaler") discloses a prior art related to an inhaler set with a base designed as a thick plate. The front side of the base has a built-in magnet, which generates a magnetic force for attachment to a holder frame, which also has a built-in magnet on the back side. The holder frame serves as a mount for sliding the case into the guide rail of the holder frame. A limitation of this prior art is that the inhaler core designed as a flat sheet is suitable for flavor-type substances such as perfumes and essential oils, but not for solid or powdered aromatic herbs. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The invention features a dual-scented herb inhaler container, which has a container body (1) with an upper end with a male thread for screwing into the female thread of the base (2.1) of the container lid, the container lid having a U-slot-shaped recess (4) for placing a fingertip to apply pressure to the edge of the lid part (2.2). The upper surface of the lid part (2.2) is permanently attached to a strap (3). At the lower end, the container body (1) has a mechanism for supporting an aromatic herb chamber (6.1), which is designed as an S-shaped convex part, and the left and right sides have grooves that correspond to the positions of the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) and the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2). The aromatic herb chamber (6.1) includes an S-shaped partition that divides it into the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) and the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2). The top surface of the aromatic herb chamber (6.1) is provided with a removable herb chamber cover (6.2), which is an annular mesh panel with an S-shaped partition line to precisely cover the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) and the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2). At the center of the container lid base (2.1), a partition with an S-shaped partition line is designed to divide the central area of ​​the container lid base (2.1) into two parts: the sealing part (5) and the aromatic release part (6).

[0006] The present invention aims to provide an herbal inhaler container with two compartments for aromatic herbs within a single container. The container has a single aroma release designed to be inhaled from both nostrils simultaneously, so that the user can selectively inhale either the first herbal aroma or the second herbal aroma as desired. This design allows only one aroma to be inhaled at a time, thus preventing overexposure to excessive herbal aromas during each use. The aroma release is controlled by a single cover, so that the aromas are not released simultaneously. This partition design allows one section to be sealed while the other section functions as an aroma release section, thus preventing unnecessary release of the aroma of the herb not being used from the herb chamber cover not selected by the user. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0007] [Figure 1] 1 illustrates components of a dual scent herb inhaler container according to the present invention. [Diagram 2] 1 shows a perspective view of a lid of a dual-cent herb inhaler container according to the present invention. [Diagram 3] 1 shows a bottom view of a dual herb inhaler container according to the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] In order to clarify the aspects of the present invention, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are intended to illustrate the general features of the present invention and to exemplify its overall characteristics. The present invention will be described in detail with specific information including the detailed description through the following accompanying drawings.

[0009] According to Fig. 1, the dual scented herb inhaler container of the present invention has a container body (1) which is a hollow cylindrical container. At the top end of the container body (1) there is an open end with male threads designed to mate with the female threads of the container lid base (2.1) to prevent the container lid base (2.1) from coming off the container body (1). At the bottom end of the container body (1) there is a centrally located annular opening to accommodate the aromatic herb chamber (6.1). The aromatic herb chamber (6.1) is a cylindrical container with a centrally located S-divider which divides the space into two permanently separated compartments, the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) and the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2). The top surface of the aromatic herb chamber (6.1) is provided with a herb chamber cover (6.2), which is an annular mesh panel with a central S-shaped divider line to precisely align with the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) and the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2). The herb chamber cover (6.2) also functions to prevent aromatic herbs from leaking out of the aromatic herb chamber (6.1). The user can remove and reattach the herb chamber cover (6.2) from the aromatic herb chamber (6.1) to replace the desired type of aromatic herb.

[0010] Referring to Figure 2, a perspective view of the canister lid of the dual scented herb inhaler canister according to the present invention includes a hinged lid structure having a canister lid base (2.1) and a lid portion (2.2). The top surface of the lid portion (2.2) is permanently attached to a strap (3). The strap (3) is fixed to the lid portion (2.2) via an annular plate with a slightly protruding annular strip underneath. One end of the annular plate is cut in a straight line to allow the strap (3) to be attached. The strap (3) is folded over with both ends attached to the straight cut ends of the annular plate.

[0011] At the top corner of the outer ring of the base (2.1) of the container lid, opposite the hinge point that connects the lid (2.2), is a U-slot shaped recess (4). This recess allows the user to open the lid (2.2) with one hand by placing the fingertips in the U-slot (4) and applying pressure to the edge of the lid (2.2). This design makes it easy to operate even if the user is holding other items in the other hand.

[0012] In the center of the inner ring of the lid base (2.1) there is an annular plate permanently attached to the lid base (2.1). This annular plate is located above the herb chamber cover (6.2) and is technically constructed with an S-shaped partition that divides the central area of ​​the lid base (2.1) into two parts: the sealing part (5) and the aroma release part (6). The sealing part (5) serves to prevent the unwanted emission of the aromatic herbs from the herb chamber cover (6.2) that is not selected for use. The aroma release part (6) serves to release the aroma from only one area, allowing the user to inhale the aroma with both nostrils simultaneously from the herb chamber cover (6.2) that is selected for use.

[0013] According to Fig. 3, the bottom view of the dual scented herb inhaler container of the present invention has a mechanism located at the center of the bottom base of the aromatic herb chamber (6.1). The mechanism has an S-shaped protrusion. The left and right sides of the S-shaped protrusion have grooves that align with the positions of the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) and the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2). The user can choose to inhale the herbal aroma stored in the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) or the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2) of the aromatic herb chamber (6.1) in a single container as desired. This mechanism allows the user to inhale one type of aroma at a time through the aroma release portion (6), and the user will not inhale an excessive amount of aroma during each use.

[0014] The use of the dual scented herb inhaler container of the present invention is illustrated. A user can open the container lid (2.2) with one hand by applying pressure to the U-shaped slot (4) located at the top end of the container lid base (2.1). This feature allows for easy operation even when the user's other hand is buried. In addition, a user can inhale the desired scent by grasping the S-shaped convex part located in the center of the bottom base of the aromatic herb chamber (6.1) at the base of the container body (1) and adjusting the position of the first herb inhaler chamber (7.1) or the second herb inhaler chamber (7.2) to align with the aroma release part (6) located within the inner ring of the container lid base (2.1).

[0015] It is possible to inhale the aroma mixed by adjusting the positions of the first herbal inhaler chamber (7.1) and the second herbal inhaler chamber (7.2) by holding the S-shaped convex part located in the center of the bottom base of the aromatic herbal chamber (6.1) at the bottom of the container body (1) with the fingertips. Preferably, the first herbal inhaler chamber (7.1) is aligned with half of the aroma-emitting section (6), and the second herbal inhaler chamber (7.2) is aligned with half of the aroma-emitting section (6).

[0016] The components and dimensions of the present invention are not limited to the above description, but include the basic ideas and principles of the present invention. The above description serves as a reference, but does not define the full scope of the present invention. Any invention based on the above principles and ideas is considered to be equivalent to the present invention.
