DISPENSER
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2017030867
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dispenser which prevents residual material retained in an outlet tube from dripping therefrom.SOLUTION: A shut-off system for a dispenser includes a pinch member 70 that moves relative to a guide 60. The pinch member 70 is normally biased against a flexible outlet tube 56 that is disposed between the pinch member 70 and the guide 60. The flexible outlet tube 56 carries material, such as soap, supplied from a pump 53 to an outlet nozzle 54. When an actuator is not engaged, the pinch member 70 closes the outlet tube 56 to prevent residual material retained in the outlet 56 tube from flowing or dripping out of the outlet nozzle 56. On the other hand, when the actuator is engaged, the pump 53 is compressed, and the pinch member is moved away from the outlet tube 56, allowing the material to be pumped through the outlet tube 56.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
