STRUCTURE FOR FLUID APPLICATION

The present invention relates to a fluid application structure capable of uniformly applying a nutrient drug applied to a fluid, particularly hair, scalp, etc. to hair and scalp.

Conventionally, in order to take out a fluid applied to hair, scalp, etc., for example, a nutrient drug from a bottle, a user withdraws a certain amount of the drug using an eyedropper and then drops it back to the target hair or scalp one drop at a time. In this case, It was difficult to apply the drug evenly to the skin, and there were places where the drug did not reach, but there were also places where the drug was over-administered, which caused hygienic problems on the hair and scalp.

An object of the present invention is to provide a fluid application structure capable of uniformly applying nutrients to target hair, scalp, etc. as simply and quickly as using a water pass.

The characteristic configuration of the present invention to achieve the object of the present invention as described above and to realize the characteristic effects of the present invention to be described later is as follows.

The application tip includes at least one fluid passageway at an end contacting the external target, wherein the surface tension at the end of the fluid flowing into the fluid passageway prevents the fluid from flowing out due to gravity. The fluid passage area of the fluid passage port may be determined.

Advantageously, the fluid reservoir may have a rotationally symmetrical shape, and the at least three application tips extend with the same inclination angle from the longitudinal direction of the fluid reservoir in the circumferential direction, and are spaced apart from each other at equal intervals so that the at least three When the ends of the application tips of dogs are connected to each other adjacent to each other, a regular polygonal shape can be provided to provide an application area of a predetermined ratio or more.

Preferably, the application tip is disposed on the inner surface of the fluid passage hole, the opening and closing cover for controlling the flow of the fluid through the fluid passage port according to the degree of rotation in the circumferential direction of the fluid passage hole; and a fibrous member having one side absorbing the fluid that has passed through the opening/closing cover and the other side contacting the external target.

More preferably, a fluid delivery pipe communicating with the fluid storage unit may be formed inside the application tip, and the opening/closing cover may include a protrusion protruding from the outer surface of the fluid application structure, and the The number of fluid passage holes exposed in the direction of the external target may be adjusted according to the degree to which the protrusion rotates in the circumferential direction.
