Foam generator for inverted compression receptacles
10765590 · 2020-09-08 · ·

A foam generator is configured such that liquid contents pumped by an internal pressure as a result of directly compressing an inverted compression receptacle, having the liquid contents stored therein, are mixed with air in a gas-liquid mixing chamber and, at the same time, directly discharged in the form of foam. That is, direct compression of the inverted compression receptacle allows the liquid contents to be instantly discharged in the form of foam, thereby further improving product responsiveness.
