Abstract

The invention relates to a bottle cap having a main body to which an operation part for opening a discharge member is assembled, and the operation part is arranged to discharge mixed content from a bottle through a discharge hole formed at the upper surface thereof when the discharge hole is opened. The discharge hole of the operating part is sealed by a sealing part assembled onto the discharge hole. The sealing part has a discharge member opening part extending downwardly from the discharge hole and fitted to the space formed between the sealing part and the main body of the bottle cap. When the operation part is opened, the discharge member moves upward by means of the discharge member opening part to open a hole of a receiving part.

 wherein a gap is generated between the discharge member and the operation part while the operation part is opened, a discharge hole for discharging the mixed contents within the container through the gap is defined, the discharge hole is sealed by an operation sealing part, and the operation sealing part is disposed around an upper end inner wall of the discharge member.   
     
     
         7 . The bottle cap of  claim 6 , wherein the discharge hole is defined in the operation sealing part. 
     
     
         8 . The bottle cap of  claim 6 , wherein the operation sealing part is assembled with the inner wall of the discharge member. 
     
     
         9 . The bottle cap of  claim 6 , wherein a lower end stopper is disposed on a lower end of an inner wall of an outer annular portion of the operation part to prevent the operation part coupled around the main body mouth from being separated from the main body mouth, and the lower end stopper is caught by a lower end of an operation screw thread of the main body mouth and is not separated. 
     
     
         10 . A bottle cap for a heterogeneous material container, the bottle cap containing a different kind of material, which is coupled in a discharging direction of a content of a container, characterized in that the bottle cap comprises a main body coupled to a mouth of the container and a receiving part having a storage space defined within the main body, an opening hole along which the content of the storage space flows down is defined in a lower portion of the receiving part, an operation part for opening an opening/closing hole defined in a lower portion of the storage space of the receiving part is disposed around a main body mouth of the main body comprising the receiving part, a discharge hole is defined in a top surface of the operation part while the operation part is opened with respect to the main body mouth, and the opening/closing hole that is opened while the operation moves upward communicates with a discharge hole defined while the operation part is opened,
