Abstract

A container includes a bottle having an opening, a valve body, and a brush head. The valve body is engaged with the bottle and covers the opening. The valve body has a through hole communicating with the opening. The brush head includes a base seat and bristles disposed on the base seat. The base seat is engaged with the valve body and is rotatable relative to the valve body between a first position and a second position. The base seat has an outlet port. When the base seat is located at the first position, the outlet port communicates with the through hole. When the base seat is located at the second position, the base seat blocks the through hole. By adjusting the area of the outlet port blocked by the end plate, volume of the liquid outputting from the bottle could be regulated, thereby promoting the convenience and the user experience.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified

         1 . A container, comprising:
 a bottle having an opening;   a valve body engaged with the bottle and covering the opening, wherein the valve body has a through hole that communicates with the opening;   a brush head comprising a base seat and a plurality of bristles, wherein the base seat is engaged with the valve body and is rotatable relative to the valve body between a first position and a second position; the base seat has an outlet port; when the base seat is located at the first position, the outlet port communicates with the through hole; when the base seat is located at the second position, the base seat blocks the through hole; the plurality of bristles is disposed on the base seat.   
     
     
         2 . The container as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the valve body has a retaining ring, a first block and a second block, and the retaining ring is arranged around a circumference of the valve body and has at least one gap; the first block and the second block are located at the same side of the retaining ring; the base seat of the brush head comprises a base board and an annular wall; the annular wall is arranged along a circumference of the base board and has at least one protrusion; the at least one protrusion passes through the at least one gap of the valve body to be located between the first block and the second block; the base board has the outlet port; the plurality of bristles is disposed on a side surface of the base board; when the at least one protrusion abuts against the first block, the base seat is located at the first position; when the at least one protrusion abuts against the second block, the base seat is located at the second position. 
     
     
         3 . The container as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the valve body comprises an outer cylinder, an internal cylinder, and an end plate; the outer cylinder is connected to the internal cylinder in a non-rotatable manner, and the retaining ring, the first block, and the second block are located on an inner circumference of the outer cylinder; the end plate is engaged with the internal cylinder at an edge and has the through hole; the annular wall of the base seat of the brush head is located between the outer cylinder and the internal cylinder; the at least one protrusion of the annular wall is located at an outer circumference of the annular wall. 
     
     
         4 . The container as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein two edges of the internal cylinder which face opposite directions have at least one first positioning portion and at least one second positioning portion, respectively; the end plate has at least one first positioning member, which is engaged with the at least one first positioning portion; an edge of the outer cylinder has at least one second positioning member, which is engaged with the at least one second positioning portion. 
     
     
         5 . The container as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the retaining ring has a first end and a second end, and a disconnected portion between the first end and the second end constitutes a gap; the first block is located at a position close to the first end. 
     
     
         6 . The container as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the retaining ring has a first end and a second end, and a disconnected portion between the first end and the second end constitutes a gap; the first block is located at a position close to the first end. 
     
     
         7 . The container as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the valve body has a third block; the third block is located at the same side of the retaining ring as the first block and the second block, and the third block is located at a position close to the second end. 
     
     
         8 . The container as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the valve body has a third block; the third block is located at the same side of the retaining ring as the first block and the second block, and the third block is located at a position close to the second end. 
     
     
         9 . The container as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the end plate is touched by the base board.
