BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing an embodiment of a device for preventing a lid from being detached which also serves as a connector for a liquid distribution container according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1 to FIG. 6, A is a liquid dispensing container capable of discharging a predetermined amount of liquid body soap, shampoo, rinse or liquid cosmetics. A screw portion 11 is formed on the outer periphery of the portion 2, and a lid 4 having a manually operated pump 3 inserted through the center and attached thereto.
Can be screwed on. (See Fig. 1)

Reference numeral 7 denotes a detachable stopper 7 having a cylindrical shape and a retaining ring 10 provided at the lower end of the lid 4 inside the lower end. When it does, it comes to enter the desorption prevention tool. The attachment / detachment preventing tool 7 is made of a relatively hard synthetic resin or metal so as not to be greatly deformed even if it is strongly sandwiched between fingertips. (See Fig. 2)

Reference numeral 5 denotes a plate-like connecting tool having two through holes 6 and 6 which can be inserted into the mouth and neck portion 2. Around the through holes 6 and 6, desorption preventing tools 7 and 7 are placed. Receiving parts 8 and 8 are provided, and furthermore, annular projections 9 and
9 are provided. (See FIG. 3) When the attachment / detachment preventing tool 7 fitted to the annular projection 9 is strongly pinched with a fingertip, the attachment / detachment preventing tool 7, 7 is largely deformed into an elliptical shape, and the circle of the attachment / detachment preventing tool 7 is circled. It serves to prevent the peripheral surface from being pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the lid 4. As a result, even when the attachment / detachment preventing tool 7 is strongly pinched and rotated with the fingertip, the lid 4 does not follow and rotate.

The shape of the container body 1 is such that two liquid distribution containers A, A, which are in contact with each other when the two liquid distribution containers A are connected, are retreated at an angle of 45 degrees to form a trapezoidal trihedron and connected. In this state, it is possible to continuously change the connection angle between the two liquid distribution containers A, A in a horizontal row arrangement (see FIG. 5) → a right angle arrangement (see FIG. 6) → a parallel arrangement. The same effect can be obtained even if the shapes of the contact surfaces a, a are semicircular, but a sense of stability is obtained by bringing the contact surfaces a, a of the two liquid distribution containers A, A into contact with each other. I try to make it.

[0018]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, the following effects can be obtained.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the lid cannot be easily removed by the detachment preventing device, it is possible to prevent foreign objects from being mixed into the liquid distribution container. it can. Further, since the two liquid distribution containers are connected to each other, they are always neatly arranged without being left alone or lying down when disposed in a bathroom or a toilet. Further, the structure is extremely simple, and the product can be provided at low cost.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a device for preventing a lid from being detached, which also serves as a connector for a liquid dispensing container, since the stopper is mounted on a receiving portion of the connector and fitted into an annular projection. Even if a force is applied in the direction in which the finger is strongly pinched by the fingertip and deformed into an elliptical shape, the protrusion prevents the deformation. Therefore, even if the attachment / detachment preventive device is pinched and rotated by a large force due to the presence of the connecting device, the cover does not rotate and the cover cannot be easily removed. On the other hand, the connecting device has a synergistic effect that it cannot be removed from the mouth and neck because the lid cannot be removed by the attachment / detachment preventing device. Therefore, a foreign substance is not put in the liquid distribution container, and the two liquid distribution containers arranged in a set with the coupling removed are not separated.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, the angle of the lid can be freely changed while the two connected liquid dispensing containers are connected to each other, so that the angle can be changed freely. It is convenient because it can be easily installed on a vehicle and can be installed particularly along a corner.
