Foam dispensing container
A foam dispensing container ( 100 ) has a container body ( 40 ) that reserves a liquid agent (L); a head part ( 30 ) that has an outlet ( 20 ), and dispenses the liquid agent (L) delivered from the container body ( 40 ) through the outlet ( 20 ) into foam; and a pump head part ( 32 ) that allows dispensing of a predetermined amount of the foamy liquid agent (foam) through the outlet ( 20 ) each time it accepts a user's operation. The outlet ( 20 ) is formed with a contiguous geometry narrowed from an intended shape. A foam, dispensed through the outlet ( 20 ) as a result of a single or multiple operations of the pump head part ( 32 ), is built up into the intended shape in a plan view seen in the dispensing direction.
1. A foam dispensing container comprising:
a container body that reserves a liquid agent;
a head part that has an outlet, and dispenses the liquid agent delivered from the container body through the outlet as a foamy liquid agent; and
a dispensing operation part that allows dispensing of a predetermined amount of the foamy liquid agent through the outlet each time the dispensing operation part accepts a user's operation, wherein
the outlet is an opening with a contiguous geometry narrowed from an intended shape, and is designed to build up the foamy liquid agent, dispensed through the outlet as a result of a single or multiple operations made on the dispensing operation part, into the intended shape in a plan view seen in a dispensing direction,
the outlet has a linear opened part, and
the outlet has a narrowly-opened part as the linear opened part; and a widely-opened part that communicates with the narrowly-opened part and is made wider than the narrowly-opened part.
2. The foam dispensing container according to claim 1 , wherein the widely-opened part is circular with a diameter larger than a width of the narrowly-opened part.
3. The foam dispensing container according to claim 1 , wherein the head part has a reservoir that reserves the foamy liquid agent delivered from the container body, and the reservoir has a ceiling that inclines towards a front end side of the feeding direction of the liquid agent, and downward towards the outlet.
4. The foam dispensing container according to claim 3 , wherein
the head part has a nozzle part that dispenses the foamy liquid agent delivered from the container body in an obliquely downward direction into the reservoir; and an inclined face that is provided in the reservoir so as to be adjacent to the obliquely downward direction, and
the outlet is formed so as to extend between a front end side and a base side of the inclined face.
5. The foam dispensing container according to claim 4 , wherein the widely-opened part is arranged on the front end side of the inclined face, and the narrowly-opened part is arranged on the base side.
6. The foam dispensing container according claim 3 , wherein
the head part further comprises a dispensing guide that is provided so as to extend downward from the reservoir and has the outlet at a lower end, and
the dispensing guide has a straight pipe-like throughhole formed into an identical geometry with the outlet.
7. The foam dispensing container according to claim 4 , wherein the reservoir has an inner bottom whose level of height is higher on the front end side of the inclined face, than on the base side.
8. The foam dispensing container according to claim 1 , wherein
the head part has a nozzle part with a nozzle opening through which the foamy liquid agent from the container body is delivered; and a foam dispenser attachment having the outlet, and attached detachably to the nozzle part so that the outlet and the nozzle opening can communicate, and
the foam dispenser attachment has a fitting part to which the nozzle opening is inserted, and an engagement part that detachably engages with the nozzle part.
