  The lid body 30 configured in this manner is mounted on the mouth portion 13 by screwing the mounting cylinder 32 as described above. At this time, the flange portion 34 is pressed against the upper surface of the stopper wall 22 of the insertion tube 3. Thereby, the lid body 30 is positioned with respect to the container axis O direction. In particular, by attaching the lid body 30 to the mouth portion 13, the stopper wall 22 is sandwiched between the upper end surface of the mouth portion 13, so that the attachment state of the insertion tube 3 can be further stabilized.

  Further, on the lower surface of the flange portion 34, an annular fitting protrusion 34a (see FIG. 3) that fits on the inner peripheral surface of the inner cylinder 21 of the insertion cylinder 3 extends downward. Further, an annular protrusion 33a is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the engaged cylinder 33 so as to protrude radially outward. When the lid main body 30 is attached to the mouth portion 13, the suction core 4 is held by the insertion tube 3 so as to protrude upward from the engaged tube 33.

  The pull-up cap 31 is formed in a circular shape in plan view, and extends downward from the top wall 35 covering the engaged cylinder 33 and the upper part of the suction core 4, and the lower surface of the top wall 35, An engagement cylinder 36 that engages with the outer peripheral surface side of the engaged cylinder 33, and extends downward from the lower surface of the top wall portion 35, surrounds the engagement cylinder 36 from the outside in the radial direction, and has a lower end opening edge.

  The pull-up cap 31 configured as described above is detachably engaged with the engaged cylinder 33 of the lid body 30. In addition, an operation piece 35 a swelled in a bowl shape toward the outer side in the radial direction is formed on a part of the top wall portion 35. Accordingly, the operation piece 35 a can be pulled up by hooking the fingertip, and the pull-up cap 31 is designed to be easily separated from the lid body 30. And the upper part of the suction core 4 is open | released because the pull-up cap 31 leaves | separates from the cover main body 30, and is pulled up upwards.

By the way, an arm plate 38 that extends radially outward while being in contact with the upper surface of the flange portion 34 is connected to the lower end portion of the cap cylinder 37 of the present embodiment. The arm plate 38 extends in a direction opposite to the operation piece 35 a with the container shaft O interposed therebetween, and is rotated through a hinge portion 39 to a connection portion between the mounting cylinder 32 and the flange portion 34 of the lid body 30. It is linked movably.
Thus, the pull-up cap 31 is separated from the lid main body 30 while rotating so as to jump upward about the hinge portion 39 after being separated from the lid main body 30.

  An annular engagement claw 36 a (see FIG. 3) that engages with an annular protrusion 33 a formed on the engaged cylinder 33 of the lid main body 30 is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the engagement cylinder 36. Thereby, the pull-up cap 31 is designed so as not to be easily separated from the lid main body 30 before being pulled up. Moreover, the annular protrusion 33a and the engaging claw 36a are closely engaged with each other so as to maintain a high sealing performance when engaged. Therefore, it is designed so that air does not enter the suction core 4 side between the annular protrusion 33a and the engaging claw 36a before the lifting cap 31 is pulled up.

In addition, an annular seal protrusion 35 b (see FIG. 3) that fits on the inner peripheral surface of the engaged cylinder 33 is formed on the lower surface of the top wall portion 35. As a result, the sealing performance is further improved, and the above-described intrusion of air is more firmly prevented.
Further, the top wall portion 35 is a bulging portion 35c whose central portion bulges upward. It is designed so that a gap is opened between the bulging portion 35 c and the upper portion of the suction core 4.

By the way, the container 2 is provided with a shoulder cover 40 that surrounds the periphery of the mouth portion 13 from the outside in the radial direction and covers the shoulder portion 12.
The shoulder cover 40 is located on the outer side in the radial direction of the inner wall portion 41 and surrounding the periphery of the collar portion 13 c formed on the outer peripheral surface of the mouth portion 13, and is slightly more than the trunk portion 11. The outer wall part 42 having a large rectangular shape in plan view and the top plate part 43 connecting the upper end part of the inner wall part 41 and the upper end part of the outer wall part 42 are provided.

  The shoulder cover 40 configured as described above is attached to the mouth portion 13 by fitting the inner wall portion 41 to the outside of the flange portion 13c. At this time, an annular convex portion 41a is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the inner wall portion 41. The annular convex portion 41a protrudes radially inward below the flange portion 13c. As a result, the shoulder cover 40 is designed not to easily come off.

On the top plate 43, a peripheral wall cylinder 44 is formed along the outer peripheral edge at a position radially inward from the outer peripheral edge of the top plate 43. An annular convex portion 44 a is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the peripheral wall tube 44 so as to protrude outward in the radial direction. Further, a reinforcing wall 45 extending in parallel with the longitudinal direction L2 with a gap in the short direction L1 is formed on the top plate portion 43 so as to be continuously provided inside the peripheral wall tube 44. .
Further, the top plate portion 43 is formed with a fitting hole (holding portion) 46 into which the bulging portion 35 c of the lifting cap 31 separated from the lid body 30 is fitted. Thereby, it is possible to hold the pull-up cap 31 separated from the lid main body 30 by pulling up the operation piece 35 a on the shoulder cover 40.

As shown in FIG. 1, the cover body 50 formed in the shape of a top cylinder is detachably fixed to the shoulder cover 40 described above. The cover body 50 is a cover that covers the upper part of the volatilizing body 6, and closes the peripheral wall portion 51 placed on the top plate portion 43 in a state of being externally fitted to the peripheral wall tube 44 and the upper end portion of the peripheral wall portion 51. And a top wall portion 52. On the inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall portion 51, an annular concave portion 51a that fits into the convex portion 44a of the peripheral wall tube 44 is formed.
The cover body 50 thus configured is detachably fixed to the shoulder cover 40 by placing the peripheral wall portion 51 on the top plate portion 43 and fitting the concave portion 51a to the convex portion 44a.

By the way, as shown in FIG.1 and FIG.5, the holder 60 holding the volatilization body 6 is extended in the lower surface of the top wall part 52 toward the downward direction. FIG. 5 is a view of the cover body 50 shown in FIG. 1 as viewed from below.
The holder 60 of the present embodiment is formed in an L shape in a longitudinal sectional view, and is provided so as to face the longitudinal direction L2 with the volatilizing body 6 interposed therebetween. And it is hold | maintaining so that it may suspend while volatilizing body 6 is held from both sides.

At this time, the volatilizing body 6 is held above the lid body 5 before the operation piece 35 a is pulled up, that is, before the pull-up cap 31 is separated from the lid body 30. Specifically, it is held in a state of being placed on the pull-up cap 31.
On the other hand, at the stage where the lifting cap 31 is separated from the lid main body 30 by lifting the operation piece 35a and the upper part of the suction core 4 is opened, the volatilization body 6 is formed of the suction core 4 as shown in FIG. It is designed to be held in contact with the upper part. In addition, since the suction core 4 protrudes upward from the engaged cylinder 33 of the lid main body 30, when the volatilizing body 6 contacts the upper part of the suction core 4, the engaged cylinder 33 and the volatilization body. A slight gap is opened between 6 and 6. Accordingly, air can be circulated toward the communication path 23 formed in the inner cylinder 21 through the gap.

The volatilization body 6 is a porous impregnation body that can be impregnated with the volatile liquid W, and is formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape. When the volatilizing body 6 comes into contact with the suction core 4, it plays a role of impregnating and volatilizing the volatile liquid W sucked up by the suction core 4.
In the present embodiment, the volatilization body 6 is not firmly held by the holder 60 but is held in a state of being movable in the container axis O direction. However, since the holder 60 is formed in an L shape in a longitudinal sectional view, the volatilizing body 6 does not fall from the holder 60.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 5, the cover body 50 of the present embodiment has a plurality of volatilization holes 53 each having a circular shape in plan view, in each of the top wall portion 52 and the peripheral wall portion 51. Therefore, the volatile component of the volatile liquid W volatilized in the atmosphere by the volatilization body 6 is volatilized to the outside of the cover body 50 through the volatilization hole 53.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the outer container 7 is a container that accommodates the above-described container 2 so as to be removable, and is formed in a bottomed cylindrical shape that is slightly larger than the container 2. The depth of the exterior container 7 is designed to such a depth that the mouth 13 of the container 2 is exposed. A peripheral wall cylinder 7b is formed at the upper end opening edge of the outer container 7 so as to have an annular convex portion 7a protruding outward in the radial direction.

The exterior cover 8 is a cover that is detachably fixed to the exterior container 7 and is formed in a top tube shape that covers the upper portion of the exterior container 7.
The exterior cover 8 includes a peripheral wall portion 65 placed on the exterior container 7 and a top wall portion 66 that closes the upper end portion of the peripheral wall portion 65. At the lower end of the peripheral wall 65, an annular recess 65 a that fits into the protrusion 7 a of the peripheral wall cylinder 7 b of the outer container 7 is formed. Thereby, the exterior cover 8 is detachably fixed to the exterior container 7 by fitting the concave portion 65a to the convex portion 7a.

The exterior container 7 and the exterior cover 8 allow each component such as the container 2, the volatilizer 6, and the cover body 50 to be accommodated and hidden inside. In addition, the exterior container 7 and the exterior cover 8 are provided with decorations and the like (not shown) so that a high-class feeling and a high-quality feeling can be felt.
The exterior cover 8 is formed with a plurality of volatilization holes 67 in each of the top wall portion 66 and the peripheral wall portion 65 in the same manner as the cover body 50. Therefore, it is possible to volatilize the volatile component of the volatile liquid W volatilized outside the cover body 50 to the outside of the exterior cover 8 through the volatilization holes 67.

Next, the case where the volatile liquid W is volatilized using the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus 1 configured as described above will be described.
First, in the stage before use, as shown in FIG. 1, since the lifting cap 31 is engaged with the lid body 30, the upper part of the suction core 4 held by the insertion cylinder 3 is covered with the lid body 5. It has been broken. Further, the suction core 4 and the volatilizing body 6 are separated from each other with the lid 5 interposed therebetween. Therefore, the volatile liquid W sucked up by the suction core 4 does not spread to the volatile body 6 side and does not touch the atmosphere outside the lid 5. Therefore, the volatile liquid W is not volatilized outside the lid 5 at the stage before use.

  Further, since the engagement cylinder 36 of the pull-up cap 31 and the engaged cylinder 33 of the lid body 30 are securely engaged by the engagement of the annular protrusion 33a and the engagement claw 36a, vibration, impact, etc. It is difficult for the phenomenon that the pull-up cap 31 is lifted by the disengagement due to the influence of the above. Therefore, also in this respect, the volatile liquid W is not volatilized outside the lid 5 before use.

Then, the case where it uses is demonstrated.
First, the exterior cover 8 is removed from the exterior container 7, and the cover body 50 is exposed. Subsequently, the exposed cover body 50 is removed from the shoulder cover 40. Then, since the volatile body 6 is held by the cover body 50 via the holder 60, the volatile body 6 can be separated from the lid body 5 by removing the cover body 50.

  Next, when the pull-up cap 31 is pulled upward via the operation piece 35 a, the pull-up cap 31 moves away from the lid body 30 while rotating around the hinge portion 39. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 2, the upper part of the suction core 4 previously covered can be opened. At this time, the opened upper part of the suction core 4 is in a state of protruding upward from the engaged cylinder 33 of the lid body 30.

  The pull-up cap 31 is rotated about 180 degrees around the hinge portion 39 as it is. Then, the bulging portion 35 c of the pull-up cap 31 is pushed into and fitted into the fitting hole 46 formed in the top plate portion 43 of the shoulder cover 40. Thereby, the pull-up cap 31 after the pulling operation can be held on the shoulder cover 40.

  Thus, after opening the upper part of the suction core 4 and holding the pull-up cap 31, the cover body 50 removed earlier is attached to the shoulder cover 40. At this time, the concave portion 51 a of the cover body 50 is securely fitted into the convex portion 44 a of the shoulder cover 40, and the cover body 50 is securely attached to the shoulder cover 40. Subsequently, the outer cover 8 removed earlier is attached to the outer container 7. At this time, similarly, the concave portion 65 a of the outer cover 8 is securely fitted into the convex portion 7 a of the outer container 7, and the outer cover 8 is securely attached to the outer container 7. As a result, the state shown in FIG. 2 is obtained.

  By the way, when the cover body 50 is mounted, the volatilization body 6 descends along the container axis O, so that it comes into contact with the opened upper part of the suction core 4. At this time, as described above, since the upper portion of the suction core 4 protrudes upward from the engaged cylinder 33, a slight gap is secured between the volatilizing body 6 and the engaged cylinder 33. It becomes a state. Therefore, reliable air replacement can be performed using the insertion passage 23.

Then, the volatile liquid W sucked up to the outside of the container 2 by the suction core 4 is impregnated in the volatilization body 6 by the volatilization body 6 coming into contact with the upper portion of the suction core 4, and the entire volatilization body 6 is absorbed. spread. At the same time, since the surface of the volatilizing body 6 is exposed to the atmosphere, the volatile liquid W is volatilized (that is, the volatile liquid W is volatilized by touching the atmosphere, and the volatilized components are dispersed in the atmosphere). The volatile component is volatilized to the outside of the cover body 50 through the volatilization hole 53 and then volatilized to the outside of the exterior cover 8 through the volatilization hole 67.
As a result, it can be volatilized around the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus 1.

  Thus, the volatile liquid W can be volatilized simply by pulling up the pull-up cap 31 via the operation piece 35a. In particular, it is possible to volatilize the volatile liquid W without taking time and effort by simply pulling up the pull-up cap 31, unlike the conventional case where it takes time and effort to remove the screw cap and the like from the mouth portion 13. It is possible to quickly set to the correct state. Therefore, it is very easy to use and excellent in convenience.

Moreover, according to the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus 1 of this embodiment, there can exist the following effects.
First, since the pull-up cap 31 is connected to the lid main body 30 via the hinge portion 39, they are not separated even after being pulled up. Therefore, the trouble of discarding the pull-up cap 31 can be saved.
Moreover, since the pulled-up cap 31 can be held using the fitting hole 46, flapping of the pulled-up cap 31 can be eliminated, and the pulled-up cap 31 can be elastically returned to its original state. The possibility of interfering with the volatilizer 6 can be eliminated.

Further, since the holder 60 that holds the volatile body 6 is provided in the cover body 50, the volatile body 6 can be stably held above the lid body 5 in a stage before use. In use, the volatilization body 6 can be temporarily separated from the upper side of the lid body 5 by removing the cover body 50 from the shoulder cover 40, so that the lifting operation of the pull-up cap 31 can be easily performed. Then, by attaching the cover body 50 to the shoulder cover 40 again, the volatilization body 6 can be easily set so as to come into contact with the upper portion of the suction core 4.
Thus, since the volatilization body 6 is hold | maintained at the holder 60 provided in the cover body 50, it can set to the state which can volatilize the volatile liquid W rapidly.

  Further, at the stage of use, the container 2 itself is completely hidden by the exterior container 7 and the exterior cover 8, so that even if the container 2 is designed inexpensively and simply, the exterior container 7 and the exterior A high-quality product can be realized by the design of the cover 8. That is, since the exterior container 7 and the exterior cover 8 can sufficiently give a sense of quality and high quality, the container 2 itself can be simply designed without cost. Therefore, the container 2 can be mass-produced efficiently, and the cost can be reduced.

  In the present embodiment, after the use is started, it is possible to return to the state before use again and temporarily stop the use. In this case, after removing the exterior cover 8 and the cover body 50, the bulging portion 35 c of the pull-up cap 31 is detached from the fitting hole 46. Then, the engaging cylinder 36 is re-engaged with the engaged cylinder 33 of the lid body 30 while rotating the pull-up cap 31 in the reverse direction around the hinge portion 39. At this time, the engaging claw 36 a of the engaging cylinder 36 is securely engaged with the annular protrusion 33 a of the engaged cylinder 33. Thereafter, the cover body 50 is attached to the shoulder cover 40 and the exterior cover 8 is attached to the exterior container 7.

  By doing in this way, the upper part of the suction core 4 can be covered with the lid body 5 as in the stage before use, and the suction core 4 and the volatilization body 6 are separated with the lid body 5 interposed therebetween. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the volatile liquid W from being volatilized and volatilized outside the lid body 5. Therefore, it is possible to temporarily stop the use without volatilizing the volatile liquid W in vain.

In the first embodiment described above, the pull-up cap 31 is connected to the lid main body 30 via the hinge portion 39. However, as shown in FIG. You may connect with the connection part of the mounting cylinder 32 and the flange part 34 of the lid | cover main body 30 via this.
In this case, the pull-up cap 31 is pulled upward via the operation piece 35 a and separated from the lid main body 30, and then the thin portion 70 is broken to separate the pull-up cap 31 from the lid main body 30. Can be made. Therefore, in this case, the fitting hole 46 for holding the pull-up cap 31 in the shoulder cover 40 becomes unnecessary, so that the configuration of the shoulder cover 40 can be simplified.

  Even in this case, only the point that the pull-up cap 31 is separated is different, and the other functions and effects can be the same as those of the first embodiment. Note that the lifting cap 31 may be connected to the lid main body 30 through a weakened portion such as a perforation instead of the thin portion 70.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, 2nd Embodiment of the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus which concerns on this invention is described with reference to FIGS. Note that the same reference numerals in the second embodiment denote the same components as those in the first embodiment, and a description thereof will be omitted.

The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the cover body 50 is not provided and the volatilizing body 6 is held on the shoulder cover 81 side. Below, the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus 80 of this embodiment is demonstrated in detail.
FIG. 7 is a longitudinal sectional view of the volatile liquid volatilization device 80 before use. However, illustration of the exterior container 7 and the exterior cover 8 is omitted. FIG. 8 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the volatile liquid volatilization device 80 in use. FIG. 9 is a view of the shoulder cover 81 shown in FIG. 7 as viewed from above.

As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the shoulder cover 81 constituting the volatile liquid volatilization device 80 of the present embodiment is a peripheral wall cylinder 44 or a reinforcing wall 45 for mounting the cover body 50 as in the first embodiment. Is formed, and is constituted by an inner wall portion 41, an outer wall portion 42, and a top plate portion 43.
A holder 82 that holds the volatilization body 6 extends upward on the top surface of the top plate portion 43. Four holders 82 of the present embodiment are provided in a state in which the four corners of the volatilizing body 6 are restrained from the outside in the radial direction, with the top plate portion 43 spaced apart in the lateral direction L1 and the longitudinal direction L2, respectively. Yes. These holders 82 are formed in an L shape in cross-sectional view and have a top plate 82a at the upper end. Thereby, the volatilization body 6 is designed so that it may not escape upward.
Also in this embodiment, the volatilization body 6 is not firmly held by the holder 82 but is held in a state of being movable in the container axis O direction.

  When using the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus 80 comprised in this way, if the exterior cover 8 is removed from the exterior container 7, the volatilization body 6 and the holder 82 will be exposed. And the volatilization body 6 currently hold | maintained by the four holders 82 is removed. After that, as in the first embodiment, the pull-up cap 31 is pulled upward via the operation piece 35a and separated from the lid body 30 to open the upper portion of the suction core 4. Further, the bulging portion 35 c of the pull-up cap 31 is fitted into the fitting hole 46, and the pull-up cap 31 is held by the shoulder cover 81. Subsequently, the volatile body 6 is returned to the inside of the four holders 82, and the volatile body 6 is held by the holder 82. Finally, the exterior cover 8 is attached to the exterior container 7. As a result, the state shown in FIG. 8 is obtained.

Also in the case of this embodiment, when the volatile body 6 is returned to the holder 82, the volatile body 6 descends along the container axis O, so that it contacts the upper part of the opened suction core 4. Thereby, the volatile liquid W sucked up by the suction core 4 can be volatilized using the volatilizing body 6.
Therefore, even in the case of this embodiment, only the method for holding the volatilizer 6 is different, and as in the first embodiment, the volatile liquid W can be quickly set to a volatizable state without taking time and effort. be able to.

  In particular, since the four holders 82 are provided on the top plate portion 43, the volatilizing body 6 can be stably held above the lid 5 before use, and the volatilizing body 6 is sucked up when used. It can hold | maintain in the state contacted stably to the upper part of 4. FIG.

(Third embodiment)
Next, 3rd Embodiment of the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus which concerns on this invention is described with reference to FIGS. 10-12. Note that the same reference numerals in the third embodiment denote the same parts as in the second embodiment, and a description thereof will be omitted.

The difference between the third embodiment and the second embodiment is that the configuration of the lid 5 is different, and that the holder 82 is configured to be movable downward along the container axis O. Below, the volatile liquid volatilization apparatus 90 of this embodiment is demonstrated in detail.
FIG. 10 is a longitudinal sectional view of the volatile liquid volatilization device 90 before use. However, illustration of the exterior container 7 and the exterior cover 8 is omitted. FIG. 11 is a view of the shoulder cover 100 shown in FIG. 10 as viewed from above. FIG. 12 is a vertical cross-sectional view of the volatile liquid volatilization device 90 in use.

  The lid 91 constituting the volatile liquid volatilization device 90 of the present embodiment is formed with a lid main body 92 attached to the mouth portion 13 and an operation piece 99, and is separated from the lid main body 92 when the operation piece 99 is pulled up. A pull ring (pull upper part) 93 that opens the upper part of the suction core 4 is formed.

As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, the lid main body 92 has an internal thread portion 94 a that is screwed into the external thread portion 13 b of the mouth portion 13, and is screwed to the outer peripheral surface side of the mouth portion 13. A mounting cylinder 94 and an annular top wall portion 95 connected to the upper end of the mounting cylinder 94 are provided.
A plurality of convex ribs 96 extending in the radial direction are formed on the top surface of the top wall portion 95 at intervals in the circumferential direction. In the present embodiment, ribs 96 are formed every 45 degrees around the container axis O. However, it is not limited to this angle.

The pull ring 93 is formed in a circular shape in plan view, and is connected to the top wall portion 95 via a breakable weakening portion 97. The pull ring 93 is connected to the upper surface of the plate 98 and has a ring shape that can be hooked with a fingertip. And an operation piece 99.
The plate 98 can be pulled up together with the operation piece 99 while breaking the weakened portion 97 by pulling it upward while hooking the fingertip on the operation piece 99. As a result, the pull ring 93 can be separated from the lid main body 92. It is said that. That is, the pull ring 93 including the plate 98 and the operation piece 99 is connected to the lid main body 92 via the weakening portion 97 and can be separated from the lid main body 92 by a pulling operation.

  Note that an annular fitting protrusion 98a that fits on the inner peripheral surface of the inner cylinder 21 of the insertion cylinder 3 extends downward on the lower surface of the plate 98 before being pulled up. Further, the center of the plate 98 is a bulging portion 98 b bulging upward, and a gap is opened between the upper portion of the suction core 4.

In the shoulder cover 100 of the present embodiment, two openings are formed at both ends of the top plate portion 43 in the longitudinal direction L2. And the movable wall 101 formed in C shape in planar view is arrange | positioned so that it may oppose on both sides of the container axis | shaft O so that it may fit in this opening. These movable walls 101 are connected to the outer wall portion 42 via an inversion wall 102 that can be inverted in the container axis O direction. The reversal wall 102 is reversed in the direction of the container axis O with the connection portion with the outer wall portion 42 as a base point, and the movable wall 101 can be moved downward toward the shoulder 12 of the container 2 by reversal. It is possible.
That is, the movable wall 101 and the reversal wall 102 function as a movable portion 103 that can move downward. In addition, the movable wall 101 is adjusted to be flush with the top plate portion 43 before the pull ring 93 is pulled up.

  Two holders 82 are provided on the movable wall 101 thus configured. Therefore, as the movable wall 101 moves downward, the holder 82 also moves downward in the container axis O direction. Thereby, it is possible to shorten the protruding length of the holder 82 extended upward from the top plate portion 43.

When the volatile liquid volatilization device 90 configured in this way is used, first, the volatilization body 6 held by the four holders 82 is removed. The plate 98 is pulled up together with the operation piece 99 while the weakened portion 97 is broken while the fingertip is hooked on the operation piece 99. Thereby, the pull ring 93 can be separated from the lid main body 92 and separated, and the upper portion of the suction core 4 can be opened.
Subsequently, the volatile body 6 is returned to the inside of the four holders 82, and the volatile body 6 is held by these holders 82. Finally, the exterior cover 8 is attached to the exterior container 7. As a result, the state shown in FIG. 12 is obtained.

Also in this embodiment, since the volatilization body 6 descends along the container axis O when the volatilization body 6 is returned to the holder 82, the volatilization body 6 can be brought into contact with the opened upper part of the suction core 4. Moreover, when the exterior cover 8 is attached, the holder 82 is pushed down by the top wall portion 66 of the exterior cover 8. Thereby, the inversion wall 102 is inverted downward, and the movable wall 101 is moved downward along the container axis O direction. Therefore, the holder 82 can be moved downward along the container axis O direction, and the protruding length extending upward from the top plate portion 43 can be shortened. That is, the protruding length can be shortened by the height of the pull ring 93.
Therefore, even if the pull ring 93 having a height is adopted, the height of the exterior cover 8 can be made substantially the same as that of the first and second embodiments, and a small and compact product can be obtained. .

As described above, even in the case of the present embodiment, the volatile liquid W can be quickly set in a state where it can be volatilized without taking time and effort, as in the second embodiment, and the wick 4 The volatile liquid W sucked up by the above can be volatilized using the volatilizing body 6.
In particular, in the case of this embodiment, once the pull ring 93 is pulled up, the weakened portion 97 is broken. It can be determined at a glance whether or not the pull ring 93 has been illegally pulled up. In this way, since the falsification prevention by the weakening unit 97 is achieved, the reliability of the product can be improved.

  Even when the volatilization body 6 pushes down the suction core 4 and the volatilization body 6 is placed on the top wall portion 95 of the lid main body 92 when the exterior cover 8 is mounted, Since the plurality of ribs 96 are formed on the wall portion 95, an air circulation path can be secured through the gap between the ribs 96. Therefore, air replacement can be performed reliably and volatilization of the volatile liquid W can be promoted with certainty.

  The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

For example, in each of the above embodiments, the case where the container 2 is accommodated in the outer container 7 at the time of use has been described as an example, but the outer container 7 may not be used. Similarly, the exterior cover 8 is not essential and need not be used.
Moreover, although the container 2 in which the trunk | drum 11 was formed in the planar view rectangular shape was mentioned as an example, it was not limited to this case, You may make it a planar view circular shape or a polygonal container.

  Moreover, although the volatilization holes 53 and 67 were formed in the surrounding wall parts 51 and 65 and the top wall parts 52 and 66 of the cover body 50 and the exterior cover 8, either of the surrounding wall parts 51 and 65 or the top wall parts 52 and 66, respectively. Volatilization holes 53 and 67 may be formed on one side. At this time, the shape of the volatilization holes 53 and 67 is not limited to a circular shape, and may be an elliptical shape, a polygonal shape, or a slit shape.
