Resin made container

A flexible container () includes a reservoir part () that reserves a liquid and a discharge passage part () that communicates with the reservoir part () to take out the liquid. A discharge pump includes a plurality of roller parts () that press the discharge passage part () and an endless transfer mechanism unit () that has the plurality of roller parts () attached at a predetermined interval and causes the roller parts () to go around. The endless transfer mechanism unit () has an arrangement including a straight-line portion in which the roller parts () linearly move, in a path of the go-around movement. An attachment interval of the plurality of roller parts () is set to such an interval that before a certain roller part () going around reaches a position where the certain roller part () does not press the discharge passage part (), a subsequent roller part () is able to reach a position where the subsequent roller part () presses the discharge passage part (). Each of the roller parts () linearly moves sequentially in a discharge direction of the liquid with respect to the discharge passage part () while pressing the discharge passage part ().

Discharge pump and liquid dispenser

A container is provided to contain a liquid to be used in a liquid dispenser that is space-saving and enables checking of the amount of remaining liquid, a refilling operation, and maintenance to be readily performed. A stock solution container in which a concentrated stock solution is to be contained and that is to be used in a beverage dispenser to eject a beverage constituted by the concentrated stock solution and a diluent includes: a containing portion having a bag shape and is to contain the concentrated stock solution; and an ejecting portion for ejecting the concentrated stock solution to the outside, the ejecting portion being provided to protrude from the containing portion. An ejection port is provided at a leading end of the ejecting portion, and the concentrated stock solution is ejected from the ejection port as the containing portion deforms based on an external force.
