This invention has been made by the members of MIMURA Seminar, College of Law, Nihon Univ. as a team. The present invention relates to a bottle that can store two different types of liquids, has different discharge means, and can easily refill the liquids from its bottom, and specifically relates to a bottle, which is compact and convenient for carrying at travelling.
In the past, when carrying two or more different types of liquid, it was necessary to carry a plurality of bottles, each of which stores different liquids, respectively. In addition, as with shampoo bottles on the market, there is usually only one way to discharge the contents of such a bottle.
Further, due to the small diameter of the refill opening of the bottle, it is difficult to refill the liquid without spilling.
As a result, when refilling method, the bottle parts had to be removed, which posed a hygiene problem.
According to the present invention, two or more liquids can be stored in one bottle, and two discharge means can be provided respectively so that the desired liquid in the bottle can be used properly for the intended purpose. At the time of refilling, each of the bottom lids can be opened widely so that the above-mentioned problem can be solved.
A bottle includes a body having a first liquid storage having a first opening at the bottom and a second liquid storage having a second opening at the bottom, the body having a first bottom lid covering the first opening and a second bottom lid covering the second opening, and the body having a partition plate separating the first liquid storage and the second liquid storage; a mist discharging pump having a mist discharging tube, which has one end being located inside the first liquid storage and having the other end being connected to the mist discharging pump, the mist discharging pump being exposed outside of the body from the opposite side of the first bottom lid; a liquid discharging pump having a liquid discharging tube, which has one end being located inside the second liquid storage and having the other end being connected to the liquid discharging pump, the liquid discharging pump being exposed outside the body from the opposite side of the second bottom lid.
The above-described and other objects and features of the present invention will be apparent from the following embodiments, which are described in reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below, together with the drawings. In each drawing, the same reference numbers indicate the same or similar components that run through all embodiments.
While each of the first and second liquid storages 40a and 40b can store the liquid up to 250 ml, respectively in the preferred invention it is recommended that the liquid should be stored with 170 ml of liquid. This is because it is possible to prevent the liquid leaking from the bottle 100 if there is sufficient room in the storages 40a, 40b.
By opening the first or second bottom lid 60a, 60b, and exposing the first or second opening 50a, 50b, it is possible that some refills can be easily injected into the first or second liquid storage 40a, 40b through the first or second opening 50a, 50b.
According to the bottle 100 of the invention, a single bottle can be used to discharge two different liquids in two different ways, and it is easy to carry around. In addition, since it is designed with hygiene in mind, the bottle 100 makes it is possible to refill the liquid without getting your hands dirty. As a result, the bottle can be refilled with liquid and can reduce resource waste. After the liquid in the bottle is used up, the user can quickly refill the bottle because of its refillable structure. Namely, it is not necessary to dispose of the empty bottle. This means that the user can save costs and protect the environment.
Furthermore, by changing the shape of the partition plate 80, it is also possible to hold three or more types of liquids. Moreover, a form spray can be used, instead of the mist discharge tube 30a, and this means that it is possible to change the discharge tube 30a, according to the intended use. Furthermore, by manufacturing the body 10 with transparent material, the remaining liquid inside the bottle 100 can be checked.
While the invention has been described with reference to illustrative embodiments, this description is not intended to be construed in a limiting sense. Thus, shapes, size and physical relationship of each component are roughly illustrated so the scope of the invention should not be construed to be limited to them. Further, to clarify the components of the invention, hatching is partially omitted in the cross-sectional views.
Various other modifications of the illustrated embodiment will be apparent to those skilled in the art on reference to this description. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to cover any such modifications or embodiments as fall within the true scope of the invention.
