Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial field of application) The present invention relates to a measuring container capable of measuring and pouring a liquid in a container.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as a container capable of measuring and pouring out a liquid, a cap provided with a measuring scale is attached, and when used, the cap is removed and discharged to measure, and a measuring chamber with a measuring scale. And measuring and discharging in the measuring chamber (for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-3941 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 62-182).
No. 242) is known.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) In the case of removing the cap and weighing, it takes time and effort to remove the cap, and it is necessary to hold the cap with one hand so that the cap does not fall during liquid injection. Moreover, while it is necessary to pay attention to the scale when injecting the liquid, it is difficult to accurately measure the liquid, but if the liquid is filled more than the intended measuring line, the cap should be held by hand and returned to the bottle. There is a drawback in that it has poor operability and meterability, such as when it must be used. Further, in the case where the measuring chamber is provided, the molding process of the container is troublesome and it is necessary to pay attention to the measuring line at the time of liquid extraction as in the case of the above-mentioned one, but it is difficult to measure accurately and lacks the measuring property. There is.

The present invention was devised in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional measuring container, and an object thereof is to provide a measuring container which is excellent in measuring property and operability and is easy to mold. Is.

(Means for Solving Problems) A measuring container according to the present invention which solves the above problems is an elastically deformable container body having a measuring cup engaging portion on a side wall of a body,
An internal pouring pipe attached to the mouth of the container main body and extending to the vicinity of the inner bottom of the container main body, an external pouring pipe extending laterally of the measuring cup engaging portion, and the internal pouring pipe and the external pouring pipe. And a cap having a push-pull valve for controlling the opening and closing of electrical continuity, and a transparent or semi-semiconductor which is slidably and detachably fitted and supported on the measuring cup engaging portion of the container body and has a measuring line on the body. It has a structure characterized by comprising a transparent measuring cup.

(Operation) By pressing the body of the container body, the liquid is poured into the measuring cup. When the liquid level of the measuring cup is above the end face of the external pouring pipe, releasing the hand causes the container to be restored to a negative pressure inside the container, causing the liquid level in the measuring cup to drop to the end face of the external pouring pipe. Soak up and put it back in the container body. Therefore, by adjusting the position of the measuring cup with respect to the end portion of the external pouring pipe, the amount of liquid poured into the measuring cup can be freely adjusted.

Further, when not in use, by pushing down the push-pull valve, it is possible to prevent the internal pouring pipe and the external pouring pipe from being electrically disconnected from each other, thereby preventing the liquid from being poured carelessly.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

The drawing shows a weighing container according to the present embodiment, in which a flexible container body 1 such as a plastic bottle that can be elastically deformed, a cap 2 having an internal pouring pipe 3 and an external pouring pipe 4, and a vertically slidable side wall of the container body. Measuring cup 5 to be attached to and detached from
It consists of and. The cap 2 is attached to the mouth of the container body by screwing or driving, the internal pouring pipe 6 extending to the vicinity of the bottom of the container 3 is attached to the internal spout 6, and the external spout 7 is attached to the side wall of the shoulder of the container body. An external pouring pipe 4 bent at a right angle so as to extend along is attached. Further, a push-pull valve 8 for controlling the opening / closing of conduction between the internal pouring pipe 3 and the external pouring pipe 4 is provided on the top surface thereof.
Is provided, the push-pull valve is for preventing inadvertent pouring of liquid when not in use. The measuring cup 5 is transparent or semi-transparent, and has a scale 10 on its side wall. The measuring cup 5 includes a container body 1
A pair of engaging pieces 13 and 13 are formed at an interval B slightly narrower than the width A of the cup engaging portion 11 formed on the upper side wall of the
It is elastically fitted and supported by the cup engaging portion 11 of the container body so as to be slidable up and down and not slipped down by its own weight even if the liquid is poured into the measuring cup. The means for slidably supporting the measuring cup is not limited to the above embodiment, and various means can be adopted.

To use the measuring container formed as described above, first slide the measuring cup 5 in the vertical direction to obtain the required scale line 1.
Align 0 with the lower end surface of the external pouring pipe 4. Next, when the valve 8 is pulled up and the body of the container body is manually pressed, the liquid flows out through the inner pouring pipe 3 and the outer pouring pipe 4 into the measuring cup. When the liquid level of the measuring cup is higher than the end face of the external pouring pipe, releasing the hand causes a negative pressure in the container, sucking the liquid in the measuring cup until the liquid level drops to the end face of the external pouring pipe, Return the excess into the container body. As a result, the liquid is poured into the measuring cup up to the desired measuring line. Then, the measuring cup 5 is slid downward and taken out to use the liquid.

(Effect of the device) Since the measuring container of the present invention is configured as described above, it is necessary to first align the measuring line of the desired liquid amount of the measuring cup with the end face of the external pouring pipe, and to exceed the measuring line. Since the amount naturally returns to the inside of the container body, it is not necessary to pay attention to the measuring line during pouring, the weighing is simple, and moreover, the precise pouring can be performed. Further, since it is not necessary to remove the cap and it is not necessary to lift the container, even a heavy container containing a large amount of contents can be easily extracted with one hand. Further, since the container body, the cap, and the measuring cup can be separately molded, the present invention has excellent effects such as easy molding.

Furthermore, since the push-pull valve is provided in the cap, it is possible to prevent the careless infusion of the unused character.
