Multi-push button for vacuum food storage container having vacuum valve
View Patent ↗The present invention relates to a push button made from one selected from soft synthetic resin and soft silicone, comprising: a protruding annular rim protruding downward from the circumferential direction of the perimeter of a support part; a guide groove for the linear movement of a pressing part, which is recessed downward from a portion at which the outer circumferential end portion of the pressing part and the upper end of a height-varying part are in contact with each other; and a cylindrical airtightness-maintaining rod for vertically moving downward by the pressing of the pressing part.
1 . A multi-push button for a vacuum food storage container having a vacuum valve, comprising:
a circular flange and a support part provided on a bottom surface of the flange;
a thin height-varying part formed to protrude upwards by a predetermined height from the surface of the support part inside an outer diameter of the support part;
a pressing part positioned on an upper surface of the height-varying part;
an airtightness-maintaining rod protruding downwards a predetermined length from a center of an inner side of the pressing part, and moving vertically downwards by pressing the pressing part, wherein the airtightness-maintaining rod has a circular cross-section when cut by a transverse plane taken at any height along the airtightness-maintaining rod, and wherein there is a space between the height-varying part and the airtightness-maintaining rod; and
a protruding annular rim protruding downwards from an outer circumference of the support part,
wherein, when the pressing part is pressed downward, shape of the height-varying part is varied such that an upper part of the height-varying part is rolled or folded toward a downward direction, thus forming facing surfaces where a first sidewall surface which is a sidewall surface of the pressing part and a second sidewall surface which is a sidewall surface of the upper part of the height-varying part face each other by the rolling or the folding of the upper part of the height-varying part,
the first sidewall surface is substantially vertical, and the second sidewall surface which faces the first sidewall surface when the pressing part is pressed downward is also substantially vertical, and
the push button is formed of any one selected from among soft synthetic resin and soft silicone.
