Abstract

A heterogeneous material-containing bottle cap coupled to a container in a content discharge direction comprises a body assembled to a mouth of the container; a storage space coupled within the body; a receiving part having an opening; a discharge member assembled onto an upper main body mouth having the receiving part; a sealing part formed on the lower portion of the discharge member for sealing the opening of the receiving part; and an upper cap having an upper discharge member stopper is caught by and assembled onto an upper side stopper at the top of the discharge member. In such a bottle cap with the above configuration, when the upper cap is open, the discharge member ascends and the sealing part being sealed in the opening is pushed upwards such that the opening of the receiving part is open. Further, an operation part with a dolphin formed in the space is assembled onto the bottom of the receiving part. As such, when the bottle cap with the operation part is assembled onto the container neck, it stops temporarily, as opposed to the bottle neck. Under such circumstance, the body and the receiving part descend together, the dolphin of the operation part pushes the sealing part that is mounted in the opening of the receiving part upward, and heterogeneous materials kept in the storage space of the receiving part are then dropped and mixed through the opening of the receiving part.
