pump has many parts and a complex structure, and is difficult in manufacturing and
high in production cost. Moreover, a reset spring of a pumping member of a traditional
emulsion pump may directly contact with an emulsion in a pump chamber, and when a
return spring rusts, the liquid may be polluted, thus being unsanitary. Moreover,
a bent nozzle of the existing emulsion pump is easy to be mistakenly pressed during
use, resulting in waste or inconvenience to a user. In order to stabilize an air pressure
in a bottle body during operation, the existing emulsion pump is always provided with
an air inlet hole, but the emulsion in the bottle body may be inevitably leaked from
the air inlet hole during transportation, thus causing pollution and affecting the

Operating principle
[0025]
- 1. The bent nozzle is pressed down to overcome an elasticity of the reset spring to
drive the pump rod to move down, and the piston has friction lag with the pump chamber,
and at the moment, the channel between the pump rod and the piston is opened. If the
pump rod continues to move down, the pump rod holds the piston to move down together,
and local air in an inner cavity of the pump chamber may be discharged from the pumping
channel.
- 2. When the bent nozzle is released, the pump rod moves up under an action of a force
of the reset spring, the piston lags behind, the channel between the piston and the
pump rod is sealed instantly, and partial vacuum is formed in the inner cavity of
the pump chamber. Under an action of an atmospheric pressure, a solution may be introduced
from the liquid guiding pipe and sucked into the inner cavity of the pump chamber
after flushing away the pump bead, and the solution may be ejected from the bent nozzle
when the bent nozzle is pressed continuously.
