And a hinge lid 42 provided with a plug body 42A that is connected via a hinge portion 43 and closes the discharge hole 41B. The replacement cap 40 is not limited to such an embodiment, and may have other configurations. Further, instead of the replacement cap 40, for example, a pump having a stem erected on the mouth portion 10 </ b> A of the container body 10 so as to be movable downward is attached to the mouth portion 10 </ b> A of the container body 10. Also good.

As described above, according to the two-component mixing container 1 according to the present embodiment, when the cap 30 that covers the second agent storage unit 20 is moved upward with respect to the second agent storage unit 20, the container body 10 The dropping hole 24 can be opened by separating the closing part 34 of the cap 30 upward from the dropping hole 24 that communicates the inside with the inside of the second agent storage unit 20. Thereby, the inside of the 2nd agent storage part 20 and the inside of the container main body 10 can be connected, and the 2nd agent C2 in the 2nd agent storage part 20 is dripped little by little in the container main body 10 through the dripping hole 24. Thus, the first agent C1 and the second agent C2 can be mixed.
Moreover, since the container main body 10 is formed so that the inside can be visually recognized, it can be easily visually recognized from the outside of the container main body 10 that the second agent C2 is dripped into the container main body 10.

In addition, since the second agent storage portion 20 and the cap 30 are formed so that the inside can be visually recognized, the second agent C2 is dropped into the container body 10 regardless of the position of the dropping hole 24 with respect to the container body 10. Can be visually confirmed from the outside of the two-component mixing container 1.
Further, simply by rotating the cap 30 in the circumferential direction with respect to the second agent accommodating portion 20, the cap 30 moves upward relative to the second agent accommodating portion 20, and the closing portion 34 of the cap 30 moves upward from the dropping hole 24. It is possible to open the dripping hole 24 by separating it toward. For this reason, when the dripping hole 24 is opened and the second agent C2 is dropped into the container body 10, there is no need to perform other operations on the cap 30, and the two-component mixing container 1 is provided with excellent operability. be able to.
