Abstract

A closure of a vessel which includes a main body coupled to an entrance of the vessel, an elevation member formed with a discharging passage discharging contents stored in the vessel, the elevation member being inserted into the main body, moved up or down in the main body, and sealing or opening the discharging passage, and a cover detachably coupled with the main body, the cover moving the elevation member up or down by being rotated in a positive direction or a negative direction, and is convenient for use because the elevation member opens or seals the vessel by being moved up or down in accordance with the rotation of the cover covering the main body in a positive direction or a negative direction, and sanitarily cleanness may be maintained because touching the discharging passage of the elevation member by hand is unnecessary, is disclosed.

       4 . The closure of  claim 2 , wherein the coupling unit is a female screw unit formed in a lower portion of an inner surface of the main body, and coupled with a male screw unit formed in an outer surface of the entrance of the vessel.  
   
   
       5 . The closure of  claim 2 , wherein a sealing member is mounted on an upper surface of an inner portion of the main body in a circumferential direction, and closely contacted with an upper surface of the entrance of the vessel, thereby the entrance of the vessel being sealed.  
   
   
       6 . The closure of  claim 5 , wherein the sealing member is a disc opened in a center portion thereof, the sealing member tightly sealing the entrance of the vessel by being closely contacted with the upper surface of the entrance of the vessel.  
   
   
       7 . The closure of  claim 5 , wherein the sealing member is a disc opened in a center portion thereof, closely contacted with the entrance of the vessel in an outer portion of the disc and with the elevation member in an inner portion of the disc.  
   
   
       8 . The closure of  claim 2 , wherein the elevation member inserted in the elevation member guide unit, in which the elevation member is moved up or down, is formed with an discharging passage in a longitudinal direction thereof, through which the contents is discharged, and with an opening and closing plate for sealing the entrance of the vessel, by being closely contacted with the inner portion of the sealing member.  
   
   
       9 . The closure of  claim 8 , wherein an inflow opening through which the contents stored in the vessel flows into the discharging passage, is formed in the lower portion of the sealing member.  
   
   
       10 . The closure of  claim 8 , wherein a separation prevention protrusion is formed in an inner surface of the elevation member guide unit of the main body, and a hooking protrusion being hooked with the separation prevention protrusion, is formed in an outer surface of the elevation member, thereby preventing the elevation member from being separated from the main body.  
   
   
       11 . The closure of  claim 8 , wherein a rotation prevention unit for preventing the elevation member from being rotated, is formed between the outer surface of the elevation member and the inner surface of the elevation member guide unit of the main body.  
   
   
       12 . The closure of  claim 11 , wherein the rotation prevention unit comprises hooking ribs formed in an outer surface of the passage unit, the hooking ribs protruding from the outer surface of the passage unit in a regular interval in a circumferential direction of the passage unit, and hooking grooves formed in the inner surface of the elevation member guide unit in a regular interval in a circumferential direction of the passage unit, the hooking grooves being respectively inserted with the respective hooking ribs.  
   
   
       13 . The closure of  claim 2 , wherein a gap is formed between the inner surface of the elevation member guide unit of the main body and the outer surface of the elevation member, so that external air flow into the inside of the vessel.  
   
   
       14 . The closure of  claim 2 , wherein a plurality of protrusions are formed at an outer surface of the cover, so that the cover may be easily gripped and rotated by user s hand, and a hooking protrusion is formed in an inner surface of a lower portion of the cover, the hooking protrusion being hooked with a hooking rib formed in an outer surface of the elevation member guide unit.  
   
   
       15 . The closure of  claim 14 , wherein a skirt unit for fixing the cover to the outer surface of the main body, is formed in a lower end of the cover, in which the skirt unit is separated from the cover when the cover is rotated by a rotation force, and then the cover is separated from the main body.  
   
   
       16 . The closure of  claim 14 , wherein an operation unit for moving the elevation member up or down in accordance with the rotation of the cover in a positive direction or a negative direction, is formed between the cover and the elevation member.  
   
   
       17 . The closure of  claim 16 , wherein the operation unit comprises: 
 a female screw unit formed in an inner surface of a upper portion of the elevation member;    a supporting unit inserted in an inside of the elevation member, the supporting unit protruding from the inner surface of the cover from the upper portion of the cover to the lower portion of the cover, in a cylindrical shape; and    a male screw unit formed in an outer surface of the supporting unit, and coupled with the female screw unit.    
   
   
       18 . A closure of a vessel comprising: 
 a main body coupled to an entrance of the vessel, the main body including a coupling unit detachably coupled to the entrance of the vessel, and an elevation member guide unit formed in an upper portion of the coupling unit; and    an elevation member formed with a discharging passage discharging contents stored in the vessel, the elevation member being inserted into the elevation member guide unit, moved up or down in the main body, and sealing or opening the discharging passage.    
   
   
       19 . The closure of  claim 18 , further comprising a cover detachably coupled with the main body, the cover moving the elevation member up or down by being rotated in a positive direction or a negative direction.  
   
   
       20 . The closure of  claim 18 , wherein at least one reinforcing rib is further formed in an outer surface of the coupling unit of the main body in a longitudinal direction of the coupling unit.  
   
   
       21 . The closure of  claim 18 , wherein a reinforcing rib is further formed in an inner surface of the elevation member.  
   
   
       22 . The closure of  claim 18 , wherein a separation prevention protrusion is formed in an inner surface of the elevation member guide unit of the main body, and a hooking protrusion hooked with the separation prevention protrusion, is formed in an outer surface of the elevation member, thereby preventing the elevation member from being separated from the main body.  
   
   
       23 . The closure of  claim 22 , wherein a hooking maintaining protrusion for maintaining the hooking state with the hooking protrusion when the elevation member is reached to the highest portion of the elevation member guide unit, is further formed in the inner surface of the elevation member guide unit.
