Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] The present invention is an apparatus for external mixing of two liquids, in particular, a base agent (liquid) such as detergent or bleach, and a foaming aid (liquid) for foaming this base agent. It relates to things that mix instantaneously externally.

[Prior art]

Conventionally, when cleaning objects to be cleaned such as bathroom sinks and traps at home, cleaning liquid such as detergent is applied to the objects to remove dirt.
Or they applied bleach to make it white.
When applying liquid detergent or liquid bleach directly to the object to be cleaned, the liquid detergent, etc. adhering to the object to be cleaned may wash away before cleaning or bleaching, reducing the cleaning and bleaching effects. There were some inconveniences. Therefore, in order to obtain a satisfactory cleaning effect, detergent, etc. may be applied multiple times, but in such cases, not only is detergent, etc., wasted, but the number of application steps increases. There was also the problem that the cleaning work was complicated.

Therefore, in order to solve this problem, a foaming auxiliary agent that foams the base agent is mixed in advance in a liquid container that stores the base agent such as detergent or bleach, so that the base agent does not easily flow off (hereinafter referred to as non-foaming agent). (referred to as fluid state)
However, according to this method, the main agent and foaming aid chemically react in the mixing container, and due to changes in the composition of the detergent or bleach, the cleaning action and bleaching at the time of attachment to the target area are affected. This created other problems that made it impossible to operate.

[Purpose of invention]

This invention was made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and its purpose is to:
The base ingredients of detergents and other foaming agents that are stored separately in different containers are discharged out of the container, and then mixed and deposited on the target area, so that the foamed base ingredients immediately act on the target object. At the very least, the purpose is to improve the cleaning effect, bleaching effect, etc. of the base agent, to avoid wasting the base agent, and to make cleaning and bleaching operations easier.

A film F is applied to the outer peripheral surfaces of the second containers 2 and 3 to integrally connect them.

[Effect]

In the above configuration, after removing the safety caps 9, 10 screwed onto the necks 20, 30 of the first and second containers 2, 3 which are integrally connected to each other,
The cover cap 4 extends over the necks 20 and 30 of the first and second containers 2 and 3 via the bases 21 and 31.
At the same time, the nozzle members 5 and 6 of the connecting nozzle 7 are connected to the fluid guide parts 46 and 47 protruding from the same side surface of the cover cap 4 at their base parts 51 and 61. In this state, when the first container 2 that stores the base agent such as detergent or bleach and the second container 3 that stores the foaming auxiliary agent that foams the base agent are tilted together, water flows out from the mouth and neck portions 20 and 30. The base agent and the foaming aid are the attachment parts 44, 4 of the cover cap 4.
5 inside - passages 46a, 47a - outlet 46b, 47
b- Through the nozzle members 5, 6, the spout 50, 6
It is poured out from 0 to the outside. At that time, the air hole 48,
Since air is introduced into the first and second containers 2 and 3 from 49, negative pressure inside both containers 2 and 3 can be eliminated. The base agent and foaming auxiliary agent poured out to the outside are instantaneously mixed on the surface of the object to be cleaned or bleached, and are foamed. The base agent that foams and adheres to the object to be cleaned or bleached is in a non-flowing state, so it remains attached to the target area for a relatively long time, and during this time it cannot perform sufficient cleaning or bleaching effects. can.

After applying the base agent, the first and second containers 2,
3 to its original position, as shown in Figure 11.
The safety caps 9 and 10 are attached to the respective mouth and neck parts 20 and 30, and the cover caps 4 are attached to the bases 21 and 3.
1 to each mouth and neck part 2 of the first and second containers 2 and 3.
Fits in at 0.30. By doing this, since the safety caps 9 and 10 are attached to the necks 20 and 30 of the first and second containers 2 and 3, it is possible to prevent the first and second containers 2 and 3 from being accidentally inserted. Even if it falls over, there is no risk of the main agent or foaming auxiliary agent leaking out, and since the safety caps 9 and 10 have a double structure of inner caps 9a and 10a and outer caps 9b and 10b, children, etc. There is no fear that the first and second containers 2 and 3 will be opened inadvertently due to mischief.

[Effect of idea]

This invention consists of the above structure and operation,
A first container that stores a base agent (liquid) such as a detergent or bleach, and a second container that stores a foaming aid (liquid) that foams the base agent, which are integrally connected; Since the foaming auxiliary agent is poured out through the cover cap from a pair of nozzle members whose axes intersect on the outside, the above-mentioned main agent and foaming auxiliary agent can be directly mixed and deposited on the target area. As a result, the foamed base agent can be deposited on the target area in a non-flowing state, so that the cleaning and bleaching effects of the base agent are not impaired as in the past. In particular, in this invention, the base agent mixed and deposited on the target area is applied to the target immediately after foaming, so the cleaning and bleaching effects can be maintained for a long time under non-flowing conditions, where they are most effective. Since it can be allowed to run for a long period of time, the cleaning and bleaching efficiency of the base agent can be dramatically increased. Therefore, not only can the cleaning and bleaching effects of the main ingredient of the product be improved, but also the adhesion work is simplified, and furthermore, the product life can be extended because the wastage of detergent and the like can be avoided.

The scope of application of the two-component external mixing device according to the present invention is not limited to the scope described above, and if necessary, the two-component external mixing device may be applied to the target area, regardless of whether the base agent is foamed or not. This can also be applied to cases where it is desired to simultaneously deposit a mixture.
