This invention relates to an improved sprayer cap structure associated with a neck portion of a bottle-shaped container for providing a liquid spraying operation or a liquid streaming operation. The sprayer cap includes an inner plug integrally formed adjacently with first and second hollow cylindrical portions in a top-walled cylindrical section. The cylindrical section is perforated with a first hole communicating with the bottom of the container through a pipe, and is also formed with a first valve chamber provided with a blocking valve at the upper position thereof and with a check valve at the lower position thereof. The cylindrical section further is perforated with a second hole and a third hole spaced longitudinally, and formed with a second valve chamber under the second hole, the second valve chamber being provided with a blocking valve at the upper position thereof. A nozzle unit is formed with a spinner slot capable of communicating with the first and second holes of the inner plug. The nozzle unit is perforated with a first nozzle hole substantially at the center of the spinner slot of the inner cylindrical section, and further perforated with a second nozzle hole capable of communicating the third hole of the inner plug adjacent to the first nozzle hole. A cylindrical cover unit is associated immovably with the container body.

Sprayer cap structure

A container in which a recess for containing a coiled spring is formed at a shaft hole opening in a cover and a container. A connecting portion for connecting the other end of the coiled spring is formed at the other of the cover and the body in such a manner that the connecting portion is substantially oppositely formed to the recess at the shaft hole opening. A connecting piece capable of temporarily connecting the other end of the coiled spring is formed, and a packing elastically contacted with the lower surface of the cover of closed state is associated intimately with the upper end of the bottomed cylindrical container body. Thus, the container can by simply produced by readily associating the cover and the container body and can also assure the sealability between the cover and the body.
