Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Industrial Application Field" The present invention relates to a sprayer equipped with a safety cap for preventing the spray head from being depressed.

"Prior Art" Sprayers are widely used in various fields. As is well known, this sprayer has a spray head at the top, and by pushing down the spray head against a return spring, a discharge passage is opened, thereby allowing the pressurized stored liquid to pass through this passage. It is ejected from the nozzle hole of the spray head.

``Problem that the invention seeks to solve'' This sprayer is equipped with a safety cap to ensure safety so that the spray head cannot be pushed down except when necessary. However, many conventional safety caps are removed each time they are used, and are often lost.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to provide a sprayer with an improved safety cap that can achieve its intended purpose without having to be removed during spraying.

``Means for Solving the Problems'' The present invention is a sprayer in which a depressable spray head 4 having a nozzle hole 3 on the front surface is connected and fixed to the upper end of a stem 2 projecting upward from a container body 1. , the outer surface of the spray head 4 from at least the top surface to the rear surface is made spherical, and support shafts 5, 5 protrude from both sides, and both sides are pivotally attached to the support shafts 5, 5, so that the spray head 4 has a spherical shape. The top part 6 is formed into a spherical shape corresponding to the head 4, and a vertical slot 7 with a width that allows the stem 2 to pass through is cut out from the lower end of the rear part of the peripheral wall, and the lower end of the peripheral wall is formed into the top part of the container body 1. It is covered with a safety cap 8 having a hem length reaching up to 100 cm, and the spray head 4 can be pushed down when the safety cap 8 is turned sideways.

``Function'' In the above, the safety cap 8 is normally supported by the support shafts 5, 5 as shown in FIG. Even if you press the bottom end of the container body 1
The spray head 4 cannot be pushed down without hitting the top and falling down.

For spraying, the safety cap 8 is rotated approximately 90 degrees horizontally so that the lower end opening is located on the nozzle hole 3 side, as shown in FIG. The safety cap 8 has a hem length and its diameter is sufficiently smaller than the height in the vertical direction. Therefore, when it is turned sideways, there is a gap between the safety cap 8 and the top of the container body 1, which allows it to be pushed down. Just push it down.

``Example'' Since the sprayer is well known and has no direct relation to the gist of the present invention, a description thereof will be omitted here. Of course, the liquid pressurizing means of this sprayer may be of a manual pump type or an aerosol type.
Reference numeral 9 designates a mounting member for mounting the atomizer body including the stem 2 and the spray head 4 to the mouth of the container body 1, and this mounting member 9 specifically forms the top of the container body 1.

The lower edge of the peripheral wall 10 of the safety cap 8 is shaped such that both sides thereof hang down most downwardly, and are cut upward from this to the front and rear sides, allowing for horizontal rotation.

Each of the above parts is molded and manufactured from synthetic resin material.

"Effect of the invention" According to the invention, the spray head 4 has a peripheral wall 1.
0 is covered with a long safety cap 8 whose lower end reaches near the top of the container body 1, and a groove 7 wide enough to allow the stem 2 to pass from the bottom end to near the top is provided at the rear of the peripheral wall 10 of the safety cap 8, and is pivoted. Therefore, it is safe to prevent the spray head 4 from being pushed down at all times, and when spraying, all you have to do is turn the safety cap 8 sideways, so there is no need to remove it, so there is no risk of losing it. The operation is extremely simple and hassle-free. Furthermore, only one safety cap 8 is required as a component, and since this safety cap 8 has a simple shape, it is structurally simple and can be provided at low cost.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] At the upper end of the stem 2 protruding upward from the container body 1,
In a sprayer in which a depressable spray head 4 with a nozzle hole 3 opened in the front is fixed in communication, the outer surface of the spray head 4 from at least the top surface to the rear surface is spherical, and support shafts 5, 5 are attached from both sides. The stem 2 can be protruded and both sides pivotally connected to the support shafts 5, 5 to form the spray head 4, the top part 6 can be formed into a spherical shape corresponding to the head 4, and the stem 2 can be passed through the rear part of the peripheral wall. This sprayer has a wide vertical groove 7 cut out from the lower end and is rotatably covered with a long safety cap 8 whose peripheral wall lower end reaches the top of the container body 1.
