Abstract

A mechanism for doubling a soap dispensing amount of an automatic soap dispenser includes: a speed reducer disposed inside a soap dispenser, driven by a motor and coupled with a pushing element; a resisting element provided on an inner surface of the soap dispenser that is on a forward moving side of the pushing element; and a soap container connected with a discharge tube located between the pushing element and the resisting element. A pad is coupled to a side of the resisting element facing the pushing element so as to be adjacent to an outer surface of the discharge tube, thereby increasing the time the discharge tube is jointly compressed by the pushing element and the resisting element. Thus, the soap dispensing amount can be doubled without having to modify an existing soap dispensing mechanism of the soap dispenser and a moving cycle of the pushing element.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A mechanism for doubling a soap dispensing amount of an automatic soap dispenser, comprising: a driving device disposed inside a soap dispenser and comprising a motor and a speed reducer having an output end coupled with a pushing element; a resisting element provided on an inner surface of a casing of the soap dispenser, the inner surface being on a forward moving side of the pushing element; and a soap container having a bottom connected with a discharge tube located between the pushing element and the resisting element; the mechanism being characterized by:
 a pad coupled to a side of the resisting element facing the pushing element, so that the resisting element is extended to be adjacent to an outer surface of a middle rubber section of the discharge tube.   
   
   
       2 . The mechanism for doubling a soap dispensing amount as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein, after the pad is coupled to the side of the resisting element, the resisting element is extended by 1.5 to 2 mm towards the outer surface of the middle rubber section of the discharge tube. 
   
   
       3 . The mechanism for doubling a soap dispensing amount as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the pad is detachably coupled to the resisting element. 
   
   
       4 . The mechanism for doubling a soap dispensing amount as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the pad has a side facing the resisting element and having an engaging structure for detachably engaging with the resisting element. 
   
   
       5 . The mechanism for doubling a soap dispensing amount as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the pad is fixedly coupled to the resisting element. 
   
   
       6 . The mechanism for doubling a soap dispensing amount as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the middle rubber section of the discharge tube connected to the soap container has a hardness of HS50 to HS55.
