Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A dispenser main body ( 11 ) includes a cylindrical-shaped fitted portion ( 16 a ), and a nozzle ( 40 ) includes: a nozzle main body ( 41 ) and a nozzle extension body ( 42 ). The nozzle ( 40 ) is provided with a dispensing tube ( 51 ) including: a first dispensing tubular portion ( 51 a ) and a cylindrical-shaped second dispensing tubular portion ( 51 b ). A cut-out ( 52 a ) is provided in the front end of the first dispensing tubular portion ( 51 a ) or in a base end of the second dispensing tubular portion ( 51 b ), and an opening end of the cut-out ( 52 a ) is closed by the first dispensing tubular portion ( 51 a ) or the second dispensing tubular portion ( 51 b ) to provide an air inlet hole ( 52 ) in the dispensing tube ( 51 ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A trigger-type liquid dispenser comprising: a dispenser main body fitted to a mouth of a container containing a liquid; a pump configured to be actuated, in response to operation of a trigger, to force-feed the liquid contained in the container to a delivery port through a delivery flow path provided in the dispenser main body; and a nozzle fitted to the dispenser main body to dispense, to outside, the liquid force-fed to the delivery port, wherein the dispenser main body includes a cylindrical-shaped fitted portion communicating with the delivery port, the nozzle includes: a nozzle main body in which a tubular-shaped outer tubular body, which covers an outer circumference of the fitted portion, and a partition wall, which is disposed on an inner side of the outer tubular portion to cover an opening end of the fitted portion and which is provided with a dispensing hole, are integrally provided; and a nozzle extension body that includes a tubular-shaped outer tube extension body coupled to a front end of the outer tubular body and that is fitted to the nozzle main body from a direction extending along a central axis of the nozzle main body, the outer tube extension body being provided, on a front end thereof and via a hinge portion, integrally with a cap body including a foam generation hole facing to the dispensing tube, and the cap body being provided with a vent hole that, when the front end of the outer tube extension body is closed by the cap body, draws air to inner side space of the outer tube extension body that is located between the partition wall and the cap body, the nozzle is provided with a dispensing tube including: a first dispensing tubular portion that is formed in a cylindrical shape having a central axis aligned with a central axis of the dispensing hole and that is provided integrally on a surface of the partition wall that faces to the outside; and a cylindrical-shaped second dispensing tubular portion that is provided integrally with the outer tube extension body on an inner side of the outer tube extension body and that is disposed on a front end of the first dispensing tubular portion in an overlapped manner, and a cut-out is provided in the front end of the first dispensing tubular portion or in a base end of the second dispensing tubular portion, and an opening end of the cut-out is closed by the first or the second dispensing tubular portion to provide an air inlet hole in the dispensing tube. 2. A trigger-type liquid dispenser comprising: a dispenser main body fitted to a mouth of a container containing a liquid; a pump configured to be actuated, in response to operation of a trigger, to force-feed the liquid contained in the container to a delivery port through a delivery flow path provided in the dispenser main body; and a nozzle fitted to the dispenser main body to dispense, to outside, the liquid force-fed to the delivery port, wherein the dispenser main body includes a cylindrical-shaped fitted portion communicating with the delivery port, the nozzle includes: a nozzle main body in which a tubular-shaped outer tubular body, which covers an outer circumference of the fitted portion, and a partition wall, which is disposed on an inner side of the outer tubular portion to cover an opening end of the fitted portion and which is provided with a dispensing hole, are integrally provided; and a nozzle extension body that includes a tubular-shaped outer tube extension body coupled to a front end of the outer tubular body and that is fitted to the nozzle main body from a direction extending along a central axis of the nozzle main body, the outer tube extension body being provided, on a front end thereof and via a hinge portion, integrally with a cap body including a foam generation hole facing to the dispensing tube, and the cap body being provided with a vent hole that, when the front end of the outer tube extension body is closed by the cap body, draws air to inner side space of the outer tube extension body that is located between the partition wall and the cap body, the nozzle further includes a dispensing tube that is formed in a cylindrical shape having a central axis aligned with a central axis of the dispensing hole, that is provided integrally with the outer tube extension body on an inner side of the outer tube extension body, and that has a base end abutting against a surface of the partition wall that faces to the outside, and a cut-out is provided in the base end of the dispensing tube, and an opening end of the cut-out is closed by the partition wall to provide an air inlet hole in the dispensing tube.
