Abstract

The present invention provides a 2-way air flow type dispenser for spraying powder and a powder sprayer including the same. The present invention adopts a 2-way air flow manner in which an air flow causing the powder to be sprayed and an air flow causing the powder to be transferred from a container to a spraying nozzle are separately formed, thereby enabling the smooth spraying of the powder.

Claims (26)

1. A dispenser for powder spray detachably installed on a sprayer main body, which generates a flow of air for powder spray, to spray a powder to a target site using the flow of air supplied from the sprayer main body, the dispenser for powder spray comprising:

a dispenser coupling unit that detachably couples the dispenser to the sprayer main body, the dispenser coupling unit comprising a connection tube through hole;

a conduit mount unit provided in one end of the dispenser to accommodate a conduit for guiding the powder to a target site;

a container accommodation unit provided in an upper end of the dispenser to accommodate a container containing the powder;

a powder discharge port provided in a lower end of the container accommodation unit to transfer the powder in the container accommodation unit to a lower space;

an air inlet formed to be spaced from the powder discharge port by a predetermined distance to transfer air to the container accommodation unit;

an air movement and mixing tube comprising: a guide tube for guiding the flow of air supplied from a connection tube from the sprayer main body toward the conduit mount unit; a first passage extended from the guide tube toward the air inlet to guide the air inside the guide tube toward the container accommodation unit; and a second passage extended from the guide tube toward the powder discharge port to accommodate the powder, which has passed through the powder discharge port, in the guide tube; and

an opening and closing control unit provided between the air movement and mixing tube and the container accommodation unit, the opening and closing control unit configured to move back and forth to shift the locations of two holes that are provided, thereby simultaneously opening and closing the communication between the first passage and the air inlet and the communication between the second passage and the powder discharge port, and wherein

the dispenser maintains constant fluid communication of air from the connection tube through hole through the connection tube and past the guide tube regardless of whether the opening and closing control unit is in an open or closed position.

2. The dispenser for powder spray of claim 1 , further comprising an air distributor inserted inside the air movement and mixing tube and having two holes for guiding the flow of air supplied from the sprayer main body toward the first passage and the conduit mount unit, separately.

3. The dispenser for powder spray of claim 1 , wherein the sprayer main body comprises:

a power unit that supplies power to the sprayer main body;

a main body coupling unit coupled with the dispenser coupling unit;

a switch unit inducing the spray of the powder;

an air generation unit for generating the flow of air in the apparatus according to the operation of the switch unit; and

an air supply tube extended from the air generation unit to guide the generated flow of air to the air movement and mixing tube.

4. The dispenser for powder spray of claim 1 , wherein the sprayer main body comprises:

a power unit for supplying power to the sprayer main body;

a main body coupling unit coupled with the dispenser coupling unit;

a switch unit inducing the spray of the powder;

an air generation unit for generating the flow of air in the apparatus according to the operation of the switch unit;

an air supply tube extended from the air generation unit to guide the generated flow of air to the air movement and mixing tube; and

a horizontal transfer movement unit that horizontally transfers the opening and closing control unit.

5. The dispenser for powder spray of claim 1 , wherein vibrators for vibrating the powder in the container accommodation unit are installed adjacent to the container accommodation unit.

6. The dispenser for powder spray of claim 1 , wherein vibrators for vibrating the powder in the container accommodation unit are provided in the main body.

7. A powder sprayer comprising the dispenser for powder spray detachably installed on a sprayer main body of claim 1 .
