Abstract
Proposed is an inverted container with an automatic cap that is configured to discharge an internal substance in a vessel body by an increase of the internal pressure of the vessel body that is generated when the vessel body is pressed and that is configured to be changed into an open mode or a close mode by a user rotating an up and down knob at 90° such that, in the open mode, when a user just holds and presses the vessel body, a discharge hole of the up and down knob automatically opens and the internal substance is very smoothly discharged, and when the force pressing the vessel body is removed, the discharge hole is automatically closed by elastic restoring force of an elastic member and leakage of the internal substance can be effectively prevented.
Claims4
An inverted container with an automatic cap, comprising:
- a vessel body (110) that has a space (111) for accommodating an internal substance therein, has a first fastening portion (113) at the lower portion, and has a first outlet (115) for discharging the internal substance at the center of the first fastening portion (113);
- a support cap (120) that has a second fastening portion (123) therein to be separably coupled to the first fastening portion (113), has a second outlet (125) communicating with the first outlet (115) at the center, and has a flange (127) for supporting on the floor at the lower portion;
- an up and down knob (130) that is installed horizontally rotatably at a predetermined angle in the support cap (120) to be able to change into a vertically descending-possible state and is partially exposed outside the second outlet (125) to discharge an internal substance through a discharge hole (131) formed at the center by being vertically moved down by discharge pressure of the internal substance when a user presses the vessel body (110);
- an elastic member (140) that is installed in the support cap (120) to return the up and down knob (130) to the initial position by elastically supporting upward the up and down knob (130);
- and
- a close member (150) that is installed in the support cap (120) to selectively open/close the discharge hole (131) of the up and down knob (130) and is configured to close the discharge hole (131) when the up and down knob (130) is moved up and to open the discharge hole (131) when the up and down knob (130) is moved down,
- wherein an opening/closing guide rail (126) is formed on the inner surface of the second outlet (125) in the support cap (120) to change into a descending-possible state (unlocking mode) or a descending-impossible state (locking mode) by horizontally rotating the up and down knob (130),
- a down groove (128) for vertical descending of the up and down knob (130) is formed on a first side of the opening/closing guide rail (126), and
- a stopper (129) for limiting the horizontal rotation angle of the up and down knob (130) is formed on a second side of the opening/closing guide rail (126).
