The frustoconical portion 6 has a plurality of long drainage holes 8 formed in the vertical direction at appropriate intervals along the circumferential surface of the barrel, and has a pin 9 erected at the center of the bottom B that is circular in plan view. And a plurality of drain holes 10 formed around the pin 9 of the bottom portion B at appropriate intervals in the circumferential direction. Then, by holding the pin 9, the drain plug body 4 can be fitted into the drain port 3 or removed from the drain port 3. Also, some of the plurality of drain holes 8 have guide pieces 11 that guide the drain plug body 4 while being in contact with the cylindrical inner wall surface W of the drain port 3 when fitted into the drain port 3. The long holes 8 for drainage are provided so as to be inclined outward and upward. In this embodiment, among the nine drainage long holes 8, the three drainage long holes 8 arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential surface direction of the trunk are provided with guide pieces 11 respectively. The flange portion 7 is supported on the inner peripheral upper surface portion S of the drain port 3 when the drain plug body 4 is fitted into the drain port 3.

  The medicine containing member 5 includes one split ring portion 12 held outside the trunk of the drain plug main body 4 in a state of being hooked on the guide piece 11 of the drain plug main body 4, and appropriate portions of the split ring portion 12. And a plurality of drooping portions 13 to 15 hanging from the bottom. The split ring part 12 has, for example, an inner diameter that is equal to or smaller than the diameter of the bottom part B of the drain plug body 4. Then, the split ring portion 12 having a reduced diameter indicated by a solid line in FIG. 2 is elastically deformed to be engaged with the drain plug body 4 via the guide piece 11 while being expanded as indicated by a chain line in FIG. (See FIG. 1).

Further, for example, the drooping portion 14 includes, for example, three housing portions A _{4 to} A ₆ that are connected in the depth direction of the drain port 3 (the vertical direction of the drain port 3 indicated by the double arrow D). The drooping portions 13 and 15 are also provided with three accommodating portions A _{1 to} A ₃ and three accommodating portions A _{7 to} A ₉ in the D direction, respectively.

And these drooping parts 13-15 are each formed with two halves 20,21. For example, as shown in FIG. 3, in the hanging portion 14, for example, two portions 14 </ b> A and 14 </ b> B for forming the accommodating portions A ₄ and A ₆ are provided at symmetrical positions of the halves 20 and 21, respectively. Further, the hanging part 14, for example, two parts 14A for forming the housing part A _6, 14B are provided in respective positions symmetrical halves 20 and 21.
Similarly, two portions 14 </ b> A and 14 </ b> B for forming the accommodating portions A _{1 to} A ₃ of the hanging portion 13 are provided at symmetrical positions of the halves 20 and 21, respectively. The two parts 14A for forming the housing part A ₇ to A ₉ in the hanging part 15, 14B are provided in respective positions symmetrical halves 20 and 21, respectively.

  One half-divided body 21 is provided with a locking projection 21a, and the other half-divided body 20 is provided with a locking hole (locked portion) 20a for locking the protruding portion 21a. The two halves 20 and 21 are connected by a thin hinge portion 22.

For example accommodating portion A ₄ shown in FIG. 3 has an inlet hole 30 for drainage to the housing portion A ₄ flows, the solution outlet holes 31 solution of the drug 5 from the accommodating unit A within ₄ flows out. Further, the outflow hole 31 is oriented radially outward of the split ring portion 12 to face the inner wall W side of the discharge port 3, inflow hole so as to dissolve a portion of the pre-drug P by accumulated in the accommodating portion A ₄ drainage 30 is provided at a position lower than the outflow hole 31. The accommodating portion A ₄ other than the accommodating portion _{A 1 ~A 3, A 5,} A 6, A 7 ~A 9 has a similar structure as the accommodating portion A _4. Reference numeral 40 denotes a vertical surface portion in which the outflow holes 31 of the storage portions A _{1 to} A ₉ are positioned at the upper end. Can be fitted into the drain outlet 3.

Thus, for example, flush water (drainage) in the wash bowl 2 passes through the drainage long holes 8 and the drainage holes 10 of the drain plug body 4. At this time, the drain plug main body 4 can prevent foreign matters such as small articles in the drainage from falling or can capture the hair that has flowed into the drain port 3. Then, the waste water, leading to the accommodation unit A ₁ to A ₉ of the drug containing member 5 provided on the lower side of the discharge valve body 4. At this time, since the drainage plug body 4 allows the removal of foreign substances and hair accessories such as drainage without inhibiting inflow hole 30 of the housing portion A ₁ to A ₉ can flow into the inflow holes 30, housing portion A ₁ ~ it can be dissolved in a portion of the drug P in a _9. At the same time, due to the momentum of the drainage flowing into the inflow hole 30, the solution reaches the inner wall W of the drainage port 3 from the solution outflow hole 31 at a position higher than the inflow hole 30 on the radially outer side of the split ring portion 12. , While reaching the inner wall W, reaches the lower drainage port. In this case, since the vertical surface portion 40 having the outflow hole 31 is in contact with the inner wall W, the effect of the solution that has flowed out of the outflow hole 31 can be reliably exerted, and the medicine containing member 5 can be moved in the D direction. Since the number of outflow holes 31 is increased by forming a long and long shape, it is possible to effectively remove the slime adhering to the inner wall W, and to effectively eliminate the odor from the sewage, The mouth 3 can be sterilized effectively.

Once the drainage is exhausted, that is, when the drainage does not flow into the housing portions A _{1 to} A ₉ , the wastewater that has flowed into and stored in the housing portions A _{1 to} A ₉ previously has been stored in the housing portion A _{1 to} A ₉ . A part of the solution is dissolved, and the waste water is accumulated in the accommodating portions A _{1 to} A ₉ , so that the solution becomes a saturated solution. That is, dissolution of the drug P is stabilized. If there is drainage in this state, the solution dissolves in the form of diluting the saturated solution and flows out of the solution outflow hole 31 mixed with the saturated solution. Therefore, the off-flavor from the sewage can be effectively eliminated, the drainage port 3 can be sterilized effectively, and the slime adhering to the inner wall W can be effectively removed.

Moreover, when the solid medicine P accommodated in the accommodating portions A _{1 to} A ₉ is consumed, the replacement work of the solid medicine P can be easily performed. That is, the solid medicine P can be exchanged simply by releasing the locking of the locking hole 20a and the protruding portion 21a and rotating the two halves 20 and 21 around the hinge portion 22.

In addition, you may comprise a chemical | medical agent accommodation member in tree shape like a Christmas tree.
