  Furthermore, the aluminum ion energy generated from the aluminum material can stabilize the stomach and protect mucus, and can have the same effects as eye drops and hemostatic agents as pharmaceuticals.

  Next, the use state of the hot water bottle configured as described above will be described.

  By injecting a fluid such as water or hot water from the hot water supply port 171 of the hot water bottle 1, the hollow portion 13 is filled with water or hot water in the hot water bottle 1. The fluid injected into the hollow portion 13 is filled in the hollow portion 13 and filled around the hot water meter 18 through the through hole 261 of the partition plate 26 that partitions the hollow portion 13 and the hot water meter 18. . Therefore, the amount of fluid in the hot water bottle 1 can be confirmed at a glance. After injecting the fluid, the hot water supply port 171 is closed with the hot water supply cap 19. In addition, it is desirable to fill the hot water supply amount of water or hot water into an amount that is about the eighth minute with respect to the total capacity of the hollow portion 13.

  When the hot water bottle 1 is used as a heat retaining device, for example, hot water is injected as a fluid to be injected into the hot water bottle 1, and the body is warmed by putting it in a futon when sleeping. In this case, in the first usage pattern, the hot water bottle 1 is disposed at the user's feet with the upper body portion 11 facing upward and the lower body portion 12 facing downward. The user's foot is placed on the support surface 15 of the upper main body 11. Since the support surface 15 is formed in a concave shape downward from the apexes 152 and 153 at both ends, the foot placed on the support surface 15 is not dropped from the hot water bottle 1.

  As a second usage pattern, when the user's waist and knees are kept warm, the hot water bottle 1 is placed around the user's waist and knees, and the support surface 15 of the upper main body 11 is placed on the support surface 15 of the user. Hit the waist and knees. Since the support surface 15 is formed in the concave arcuate surfaces R1 and R2 inward, it can be easily applied to the waist and knees.

  As a third usage pattern, when keeping the head warm, the user's head is placed on the support surface 15. In this case, since a plurality of protrusions 151 are arranged on the support surface 15, in order to avoid hitting the user's head directly on the support surface 15, for example, a thick cloth or towel is used for the hot water bottle 1. Wrap it around. The arcuate surfaces (the first arcuate surface R1 and the second arcuate surface R2) formed on the support surface 15 are originally placed on the support surface 15 because the radius of curvature is formed in accordance with the human head. The head of the person who has done this will be placed on the support surface 15 in a stable state not falling from the hot water bottle 1 and can sleep well. Moreover, since the several protrusion part 151 is formed in the rectangular piece shape, it does not stimulate a person's head too much, but becomes a moderate stimulus and contacts a person's head.

  When the hot water bottle 1 is carried, the handle portion 162 of the hand-held portion 16 and the handle portion 222 of the lower hand-held portion 22 are provided. However, even when hot water is hot, it is between the hand-held portion 16 and the lower hand-held portion 22. In addition, since the heat insulating resin member 20 is interposed, it is difficult for heat to be transmitted to the grip portions 162 and 221 and can be carried with peace of mind.

  Further, as the fourth embodiment, when the hot water bottle 1 is used as a cold insulation device, ice is injected from the hot water supply port 171 together with water. Since the hot water supply port 171 is formed wider than a conventional hot water bottle, it is possible to inject ice of an appropriate size. Although ice can be injected into the hollow portion 13, it does not pass through the through hole 261 formed in the partition plate 26, and therefore is not injected around the hot water meter 18. That is, it is possible to prevent the position of the pointer from being distorted by the interference of the ice with the pointer of the hot water meter 18.

  Further, for example, when the body temperature is raised by catching a cold, ice is poured into the hot water bottle 1 and wrapped around with a thick cloth or towel, and then placed under the head. In other words, it will be used as an ice pillow. Thereby, body temperature can be lowered.

  Furthermore, even when this hot water bottle 1 is not used in a futon, it can be kept warm or cool according to the surrounding environment, or blood circulation can be improved by simply putting a foot on it or putting it around the waist. Use for. Further, in a home with a pet, when the winter is cold, the pet can be warmed by being placed on the support surface 15 of the hot water bottle 1.

  As described above, according to the hot water bottle 1 of the embodiment, the support surface 15 that comes into contact with the head, legs, or waist is formed in a concave shape downward along the longitudinal direction and the short side direction, and the support surface Since the apexes 152 and 153 at both ends of 15 are formed at substantially the same height, even if the head and feet are placed on the support surface 15, the head and feet are stable without dropping from the support surface 15. Can be formed, and can sleep well during sleep.

  In addition, by injecting hot water from the hot water supply port 171, it can be used as a hot water bottle that can be kept warm in cold winter days. By injecting water into the hot water supply port 171, It can be used as a cold insulator. Moreover, since it can be used as an ice pillow by injecting ice together with water, it can be used as a heat sink when the body temperature is high. In other words, it can be used all year round.

  Further, since the upper main body portion 11 is formed of a copper material, the lower main body portion 12 is formed by galvanizing an iron material, and the internal reinforcing plate 25 and the partition plate 26 are formed of an aluminum material, three elements. Metal ion energy can be generated. By penetrating metal ion energy into the body, the cells of the human body can be activated and a healthy body can be made.

  Further, by disposing the reinforcing plate 25 that connects the upper main body portion 11 and the lower main body portion 12 in the hollow portion 13 of the hot water bottle 1, the durable main body portion 10 can be formed for a long time. Can be used.

  The multifunctional hot water bottle of the present invention is not limited to the above-described form. For example, if the support surface 15 has the first arc surface R1 formed in the longitudinal direction, the second arc surface R2 formed in the short direction is deleted to form a flat surface. Alternatively, the plurality of protrusions 151 arranged on the support surface 15 may be deleted.

  Further, the handle portions 162 and 222 may not be formed integrally with the main body portion 10, but the handle member may be formed of another member and attached to a part of the main body portion 10. In this case, the concave portion 161 formed in the hand-held portion 16 and the concave portion 221 formed in the lower hand-held portion 22 can be deleted.
