FIG. 3 is a plan view showing a disassembled state of the volatilization body 30 used in the volatilization device 10. FIG. FIG. 4 is a front view showing a part of the essential part of the volatilization device 10. FIG.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the volatilization device 10 has a container 20 containing a chemical liquid L such as a perfume, a volatilization body 30 installed in the container 20 , and a cover 40 attached to the container 20 . The volatilization device 10 is configured so that the chemical liquid L in the container 20 can be sucked up by the volatilization body 30 and volatilized. In the present embodiment, the vertical direction of the volatilization device 10 is the direction in which gravity acts when the bottom wall portion 23 of the container 20 described later of the volatilization device 10 is placed on a horizontal plane orthogonal to the direction of gravity. Set as direction.

The container 20 has an opening 21 on its top surface. Container 20 illustratively has a body 22 , a bottom wall 23 , a shoulder 24 , and a neck 25 defining opening 21 . As an example, the body portion 22 is formed in a cylindrical shape. The bottom wall portion 23 is formed at the lower end of the trunk portion 22 and closes the lower end of the trunk portion 22 . The upper surface of the bottom wall portion 23, which serves as the bottom surface 23a in the container 20, is formed in a plane perpendicular to the vertical direction. The bottom surface 23 a is the bottom surface inside the container 20 . A shoulder portion 24 is formed at the upper end of the body portion 22 .

The neck portion 25 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and a female thread is formed on the outer peripheral surface thereof to which the lid member 5 can be screwed. The lid member 5 is used to prevent volatilization of the chemical liquid L by blocking the opening 21 of the neck portion 25 before the volatilization device 10 is used.

A cross section orthogonal to the axis of the neck 25 is smaller than a cross section orthogonal to the axis of the body 22 . Furthermore, the neck portion 25 is arranged inside the outer edge of the shoulder portion 24 when the neck portion 25 is viewed in the axial direction of the neck portion 25 . In this embodiment, the neck portion 25 is arranged coaxially with the body portion 22 as an example.

An upper surface 25a of the neck portion 25 is formed on a plane perpendicular to the vertical direction. The distance from the upper surface 25a of the neck portion 25, ie, the upper surface having the opening 21, to the bottom surface 23a of the bottom wall portion 23 is L1. Therefore, the distance from the edge 21a of the opening 21 to the bottom surface 23a along the vertical direction is also L1.

The container 20 configured in this manner is made of glass as an example in the present embodiment. Therefore, due to the properties of the glass, a recessed portion 27 is formed in a portion that is slightly shifted downward from the upper end of the inner peripheral surface 26 of the neck portion 25 so as to be recessed radially outward. The recessed portion 27 is formed in an annular shape.

The volatilization body 30 is, for example, configured by combining a plurality of members with each other. In this embodiment, the volatilization body 30 is configured by combining a first member 31 and a second member 32 . In addition, the volatilization body 30 sets and demonstrates the up-down direction based on the attitude|position of the state in which the volatilization body 30 was installed in the container 20. FIG.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the first member 31 includes a first portion 33 extending in the vertical direction, and an upper end of the first portion 33. The first member 31 extends in a direction orthogonal to the vertical direction. It has a second portion 34 projecting from the portion 33 . The first member 31 is made of a material capable of sucking up the liquid medicine L. As shown in FIG. Furthermore, the first member 31 is made of a material that can retain its shape even when wet with the chemical liquid L. As shown in FIG. The first member 31 is made of cardboard as an example in this embodiment.

The first portion 33 has a core portion 35 that can be accommodated in the container 20, and a wide portion 36 that is formed at the upper end of the core portion 35 and is longer than the core portion 35 in the width direction perpendicular to the vertical direction. ing. The core portion 35 is long in one direction and has a shape that allows it to be inserted into the neck portion 25 through the opening 21 along the longitudinal direction. The core portion 35 is, for example, formed in a rectangular shape having a width slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the neck portion 25 .

A first projecting portion 37 projecting outward in the width direction of the core portion 35 is formed on each edge of the upper end of the core portion 35 in the width direction. The first projecting portion 37 will be described with reference to FIG. 4 . FIG. 4 shows the first projecting portion 37 and its surroundings with the volatilization body 30 installed in the container 20 . As shown in FIG. 4 , the first protrusion 37 is formed to be arranged within the recess 27 when the core 35 is inserted into the neck 25 . In the present embodiment, since the shape of the first projection 37 is not the same as the cross-sectional shape of the recess 27, the first projection 37 is accommodated in the recess 27 by partially deforming. be. The first projection 37 is engaged with the recess 27 by being placed in the recess 27 . As an example, as shown in FIG. 3, the first projecting portion 37 has a shape whose width gradually decreases downward.

As an example in the present embodiment, the wide portion 36 is formed in a shape whose width gradually increases upward. A side surface 36a of the wide portion 36 is formed parallel to a direction inclined with respect to the vertical direction. The width of the upper end of the wide portion 36 is larger than the inner diameter of the opening 21 of the container 20 . Therefore, when the volatilization body 30 is inserted into the opening 21 , the side surface 36 a of the wide portion 36 comes into contact with the edge 21 a of the opening 21 . Edge 21a is part of upper surface 25a.

The contact portion 36b that contacts the edge 21a of the opening 21 on the side surface 36a of the wide portion 36, in other words, the contact portion whose length in the width direction orthogonal to the vertical direction of the wide portion 36 is the same as the inner diameter of the opening 21. A length L2 from 36b to the lower end 35a of the first portion 33 is longer than the distance L1. Note that the length L2 is specifically the length along the line X1 parallel to the vertical direction of the first portion 33 . The vertical direction of the first portion 33 is parallel to the depth direction of the container 20 when the volatilization body 30 is accommodated in the container 20 . A portion of the first portion 33 from the contact portion 36 b to the lower end 35 a constitutes the accommodated portion 6 that is accommodated in the container 20 .

In other words, the length L2 along the longitudinal direction of the accommodated portion 6, the volatilization body 30, the longitudinal direction of the accommodated portion 6 in parallel with the vertical direction through the opening 21 along the longitudinal direction inserted into the container 20 Before the contact portion 36b contacts the edge 21a of the opening 21, the lower end 35a contacts the bottom surface 23a.

In addition, in the first portion 33, a weakened portion 35b is formed at a position having a length L3 shorter than the distance L1 along the line X2 from the contact portion 36b toward the lower end 35a. The weak portion 35 b is formed in the core portion 35 . A line X2 is a line parallel to the vertical direction of the first portion 33 and becomes parallel to the depth direction of the container 20 when the volatilization body 30 is accommodated in the container 20 .
In other words, the fragile portion 35b is formed at a position shorter than the distance L1 from the edge 21a of the opening 21 to the bottom surface 23a from the contact portion 36b of the accommodated portion 6 toward the lower end 35a in the longitudinal direction.

The fragile portion 35b is a portion that makes the core portion 35 easy to bend along the width direction perpendicular to the vertical direction. The fragile portion 35b is, for example, a notch formed on the surface of the core portion 35 . The notch forming the fragile portion 35b is formed to a predetermined depth from the surface of the core portion 35, and extends from one widthwise end of the core portion 35 to the other end. In another example, the weakened portion 35b may be a plurality of holes arranged in the width direction. Alternatively, the fragile portion 35b may be a groove extending in the width direction. Also, the fragile portion 35b may be a crease extending in the width direction.

The second portion 34 has, as shown in FIG.

The body portion 38 protrudes on both sides in the width direction with respect to the wide portion 36 . As an example, the main body portion 38 has a rectangular planar shape.
The second protruding portion 39 protrudes downward from the main body portion 38 and has a gap S1 in the width direction between itself and the first portion 33 . The gap S1 can accommodate a portion of the neck 25 when the first member 31 is inserted into the container 20 until the abutting portion 36b abuts the edge 21a of the opening 21, and furthermore, the second , the protrusion 39 does not come into contact with the neck 25 . The second projecting portion 39 is formed in a rectangular shape as an example.

As an example, two second protrusions 39 are formed. The second projecting portions 39 are formed at both ends of the body portion 38 in the width direction. The side surface 39a of the second protruding portion 39 and the side surface 38a of the main body portion 38 are arranged side by side in the vertical direction.

The first member 31 configured in this way is formed with a first groove 31a in which the second member 32 is arranged. As an example, the first groove 31a extends from the widthwise center of the upper end surface of the body portion 38 to the middle portion P1 of the core portion 35 in the vertical direction. The first groove 31a is arranged substantially at the center of the first member 31 in the width direction. As an example, the first groove 31a is formed in a gentle arc shape. The width of the first groove 31a has a width that allows the second member 32 to be fixed. The width of the first groove 31a has a length slightly smaller than the thickness of the second member 32 as an example in this embodiment.

As an example, the second member 32 has the same shape as the first member 31, but the length of the core 35 and the length of the first groove 31a are different from those of the first member 31. The difference is that a second groove 32a is formed instead. For this reason, the second member 32 will be described with respect to this difference, and other similar structures will be given the same reference numerals as those of the first member 31, and description thereof will be omitted.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the length of the core portion 35 of the second member 32 is equal to the length of the core portion of the second member 32 when the second member 32 is combined with the first member 31 . A lower end 35 a of 35 has a length facing the fragile portion 35 b of the first member 31 . That is, the vertical length of the core portion 35 of the second member 32 is the same length as the length from the upper end of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 to the fragile portion 35b. Note that the core portion 35 of the second member 32 does not have the fragile portion 35b. The core portion 35 of the second member 32 functions as a reinforcing rib that improves the strength of the portion above the fragile portion 35b of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 .

The second member 32 has a second groove 32a in which the first member 31 is arranged. The second groove 32a extends from the lower end 35a of the core portion 35 to the middle portion P2 of the core portion 35, as shown in FIG. The second groove 32a is formed in a gentle arc shape. The second groove 32a has a width capable of sandwiching the first member 31 inside. The width of the second groove 32a has a length slightly smaller than the thickness of the first member 31, for example.

The first groove 31a and the second groove 32a are such that the body portion 38, the wide portion 36, and part of the core portion 35 of the second member 32 are arranged in the first groove 31a, and the second groove 32a is formed. The core portion 35 of the first member 31 is arranged inside, and the lower end 31b of the first groove 31a and the upper end 32b of the second groove 32a are in contact with each other. The end face and the upper end face of the second member 32 have a length to be flush with each other.

When the first member 31 and the second member 32 are combined, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the volatilization body 30 configured in this way is The second member 32 is configured to have a cross-shaped cross section from which the second member 32 protrudes. In other words, volatilization body 30 is formed to have a cross-sectional shape in which first member 31 protrudes from both main surfaces of second member 32 .

Further, the upper end surface of the first member 31 and the upper end surface of the second member 32 are flush with each other, so that the first protruding portion 37 of the first member 31 and the first first protrusion 37 of the second member 32 are formed. are arranged in the circumferential direction.

The cover 40 is detachably formed on the container 20 . As an example, the cover 40 is formed in a bottomed cylindrical shape having an upper wall portion 41 and a body portion 42 . An opening 43 communicating between the inside and outside of the cover 40 is formed in the trunk portion 42 . The opening 43 is formed in a rectangular shape, for example. Furthermore, a plurality of openings 43 are formed and are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the trunk portion 42 .

In addition, the shape of the opening 43 is not limited as long as the opening 43 is formed so that the volatilized perfume can be discharged to the outside of the cover 40 . For example, if a plant (for example, a rose) having a scent similar to that of the perfume is represented on the cover 40 by an opening or unevenness, the volatilized perfume will come out of the cover 40 through this opening. Also, an opening may be formed in the upper wall portion 41 .

A third projecting portion 44 is formed on the inner edge of the opening at the lower end of the cover 40 to engage with the annular groove 28 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the body portion 22 of the container 20 . The cover 40 is secured to the container 20 by the engagement of the third projection 44 with the groove 28 . It should be noted that moving the cover 40 upward relative to the container 20 causes the third projection 44 to exit the groove 28 . The cover 40 can be removed from the container 20 by the third projection 44 exiting the groove 28 .

Next, an example of assembly work of the volatilization device 10 will be described. Before being used, the volatilization device 10 has the lid member 5 attached to the neck 25 of the container 20, and the first member 31 and the second member 32 of the volatilization body 30 are separated. etc., in a package (not shown). Furthermore, the first member 31 and the second member 32 are arranged outside the container 20 .

A user takes out the container 20, the 1st member 31, the 2nd member 32, and the cover 40 from a package, when using the volatilization apparatus 10 is started.

The user then configures volatilization body 30 by combining first member 31 and second member 32 . Specifically, the user inserts the core portion 35 of the second member 32 into the first groove 31a of the first member 31 from the lower end 35a. At this time, by aligning the second groove 32a and the first groove 31a of the second member 32, the second member 32 can be smoothly inserted into the first groove 31a.

When the user pushes the second member 32 into the first groove 31a until the upper end 32b of the second groove 32a contacts the lower end 31b of the first groove 31a, the pushing operation is completed. When the upper end 32b of the second groove 32a and the lower end 31b of the first groove 31a contact each other, the lower end 35a of the core portion 35 of the second member 32 faces the fragile portion 35b of the first member 31.

The user then adjusts the postures of the first member 31 and the second member 32 so that the first member 31 and the second member 32 are orthogonal to each other. When the 1st member 31 and the 2nd member 32 become a mutually orthogonal attitude|position, the volatilization body 30 will be completed.

When the volatilization body 30 is completed, the user moves the volatilization body 30 from the lower end 35a of the core 35 of the first member 31 and the lower end 35a of the core 35 of the second member 32 into the container 20 through the opening 21. insert into

By arranging the first projecting portion 37 of the first member 31 and the first projecting portion 37 of the second member 32 in the circumferential direction, the first projecting portion 37 of the first member 31 and the second projecting portion 37 of the second member 32 The first projecting portion 37 of the member 32 abuts the edge 21a of the opening 21 at the same time.

When the user inserts the volatilization body 30 until the first projecting portion 37 of the first member 31 and the first projecting portion 37 of the second member 32 contact the edge 21a of the opening 21, further , push the volatilization body 30 into the container 20 . As shown in FIG. 4, when the volatilization body 30 is pushed further from the position where the first protrusion 37 abuts against the edge 21a of the opening 21, the first protrusion 37 is deformed.

By deforming the first projecting portion 37 , the volatilization body 30 can move further into the container 20 . The user pushes the volatilization body 30 into the container 20 until the wide portion 36 of the first member 31 and the wide portion 36 of the second member 32 contact the edge 21 a of the opening 21 . When the volatilization body 30 is inserted into the container 20 until the wide portion 36 contacts the edge 21 a of the opening 21 , the first protrusion 37 enters the recess 27 of the neck 25 . Thus, the volatilization body 30 engages with the container 20 in a state in which the volatilization body 30 is in contact with the edge 21 a of the opening 21 by accommodating the first projecting portion 37 in the recessed portion 27 .

Further, while the volatilization body 30 is pushed into the container 20 until the wide portion 36 of the first member 31 and the wide portion 36 of the second member 32 contact the edge 21a of the opening 21, the first member The lower end 35a of the core portion 35 of the container 20 abuts against the bottom surface 23a of the bottom wall portion 23 of the container 20 . Furthermore, after the lower end 35 a of the first member 31 contacts the bottom surface 23 a of the bottom wall portion 23 , the volatilization body 30 is further pushed into the container 20 . The first member 31 is bent at the fragile portion 35b by further pushing after the lower end 35a contacts the bottom wall portion 23 .

A portion of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 above the fragile portion 35b has improved strength due to the core portion 35 of the second member 32 compared to a portion below the fragile portion 35b. Therefore, the first member 31 is bent at the fragile portion 35b. By bending the core portion 35 of the first member 31 at the fragile portion 35 b , the lower end 35 a of the first member 31 is kept in contact with the bottom surface 23 a of the bottom wall portion 23 .

When the wide portion 36 of the first member 31 and the wide portion 36 of the second member 32 are in contact with the edge 21a of the opening 21, the neck portion 25 is arranged within the gap S1.

When the user inserts the volatilization body 30 into the container 20 until the wide portion 36 of the first member 31 and the wide portion 36 of the second member 32 abut against the edge 21a of the opening 21, then the cover 40 is attached to the container 20. Once the cover 40 is attached to the container 20, the volatilization device 10 is completed.

Next, operation|movement of the volatilization apparatus 10 is demonstrated. The volatilization body 30 sucks up the chemical liquid L in the container 20 . The chemical liquid L sucked up is volatilized from the surface of the volatilization body 30 . The gaseous perfume volatilized from the surface of the volatilization body 30 goes out of the cover 40 through the opening 43 of the cover 40 . Also, the perfume volatilized within the container 20 goes out of the cover 40 through the opening 21 and the opening 43 of the cover 40 .

In the volatilization device 10 configured as described above, the length L2 of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 is longer than the length L1 from the edge 21a of the opening 21 of the container 20 to the bottom surface 23a of the bottom wall portion 23 . Therefore, since the lower end 35a of the first member 31 contacts the bottom surface 23a, the chemical solution L can be prevented from remaining in the container 20. As shown in FIG.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the lower end 35a of the first member 31 contacts the peripheral portion of the bottom surface 23a relative to the center. When the container 20 is made of glass as in the present embodiment, the bottom surface 23a is not completely flat due to the nature of the glass and the nature of the manufacturing method. It may be higher than the peripheral portion.

Thus, when the bottom surface 23a is not a plane perpendicular to the vertical direction but a surface in which the peripheral edge side is lower than the center, the chemical liquid L tends to remain on the peripheral edge side rather than the center of the container 20 when the remaining amount is reduced. .

However, as in the present embodiment, the lower end 35a is in contact with the peripheral portion of the bottom surface 23a from the center, so that the bottom surface 23a is not flat, but is a surface in which the peripheral portion is lower than the center of the bottom surface 23a. However, the volatilization body 30 can suck up the chemical liquid L even when the remaining amount of the chemical liquid L is reduced.

Furthermore, each of the first member 31 and the second member 32 has a wide portion 36 that abuts on the edge 21a of the opening 21, so that the chemical solution L travels to the outside from the contact point between the volatilization body 30 and the container 20. You can prevent it from leaking.

For example, when the lower end of the body portion 38 contacts the upper surface of the neck portion 25, the liquid medicine L sucked up to the body portion 38 flows to the upper surface of the neck portion 25 through the contact point between the upper surfaces of the body portion 38 and the neck portion 25, and furthermore, , may flow to the outer peripheral surface of the container 20 .

However, in the present embodiment, the wide portion 36 of the volatilization body 30 abuts against the edge 21 a of the opening 21 so that the body portion 38 does not come into contact with the upper surface of the neck portion 25 . Therefore, even if the chemical solution L flows out from the wide portion 36 to the edge 21a of the opening 21, the chemical solution L that has flowed out returns to the container 20 as it is. For this reason, the chemical liquid L does not flow out to the outside along the contact point between the volatilization body 30 and the container 20 .
In addition, as a modification of this embodiment, the volatilization body 30 may be supported by the container 20 by contact|abutting on parts other than the edge 21a of the upper surface 25a of the neck part 25. FIG. In this case, the portion of the volatilization body 30 that contacts the upper surface 25a is the contact portion according to the present invention. As an example of this, the body portion 38 may abut on the upper surface 25a. Thus, even if the volatilization body 30 abuts on a portion other than the edge 21a of the upper surface 25a, the volatilization body 30 can abut on the bottom surface 23a, so that the chemical solution L remains unusable in the container 20. can be prevented.

Furthermore, each of the first member 31 and the second member 32 has a gap S1 between the second projecting portion 39 and the first portion 33 . Then, in a state in which the volatilization body 30 is installed in the container 20, that is, in a state in which the volatilization body 30 is inserted into the container 20 until the contact portion 36b of the wide portion 36 contacts the edge 21a of the opening 21, the gap S1 The placement of the neck portion 25 therein prevents the body portion 38 from contacting the neck portion 25 .

Therefore, even if the surface area of the volatilization body 30 located outside the container 20 is increased by providing the second protrusion 39 in the second portion 34, the second protrusion 39 is formed by the gap S1. can be prevented from contacting the container 20.

In addition, in this embodiment, the core portion 35 of the first member 31 is formed in a rectangular shape. However, the shape of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 is not limited to a rectangular shape. The portion below the fragile portion 35b of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 may be formed in such a shape that the central portion in the width direction is the longest.

As an example of this shape, there is a shape in which the lower end 35a of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 is formed in an arc shape, as in the modification shown in FIG. Alternatively, it may be formed in a triangular shape in which the width gradually narrows from the fragile portion 35b to the lower end 35a.
In this way, the portion below the fragile portion 35b of the core portion 35 of the first member 31 is formed such that the central portion in the width direction is the longest. It contacts the bottom surface 23a in the container 20 at a point. Therefore, the lower end 35a becomes easy to slide on the bottom surface 23a. Since the lower end 35a becomes slippery with respect to the bottom surface 23a, when inserting the volatilization body 30 in the container 20, it becomes easy to bend the 1st member 31 by the fragile part 35b.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the width of the first member 31 may be narrowed at the weakened portion 35b. When the width of the first member 31 is narrowed at the fragile portion 35b, the force acting on the fragile portion 35b to bend the first member 31 per unit length increases. Therefore, the first member 31 can be smoothly bent at the fragile portion 35b. As an example of a shape in which the width of the first member 31 is narrowed at the fragile portion 35b, there is a shape in which both ends of the fragile portion 35b are constricted.

In this embodiment, the first protruding portion 37 is formed on the core portion 35 . However, the first projecting portion 37 is not limited to being formed on the core portion 35 . In another example, the first projecting portion 37 may be formed on the surface of the second projecting portion 39 on the core portion 35 side, as in the modification shown in FIG. In this case, the first projecting portion 37 is preferably formed so as to be engageable with the external thread on the outer peripheral surface of the neck portion 25 . Although FIG. 6 shows the first member 31 as a representative, the second member 32 is the same.

In this embodiment, the volatilization body 30 is configured by combining a plurality of members. However, volatilization body 30 is not limited to being configured by combining a plurality of members. In another example, volatilization body 30 may be formed from only one member. As an example of this, the volatilization body 30 may be composed of only the first member 31 . When the volatilization body 30 is composed only of the first member 31, the portion above the fragile portion 35b of the first member 31 has the same reinforcing effect as the core portion 35 of the second member 32. Ribs may be formed.

In this embodiment, since the container 20 is made of glass, a concave portion 27 is formed in the inner peripheral surface 26 of the neck portion 25 due to the properties of glass. However, the container 20 may not have the recessed portion 27 by devising the manufacturing method or changing the material. Even if the recessed portion 27 is not formed in the container 20 , the volatilization body 30 can be supported on the container 20 by the first projecting portion 37 .

In this embodiment, a liquid perfume is used as an example of the medicinal solution L contained in the container 20 . However, the medicinal solution L is not limited to a liquid perfume. Alternatively, the liquid medicine L may be a liquid deodorant. Also, the liquid contained in the container 20 may be a liquid other than the chemical liquid.

In this embodiment, the second portion 34 has a second projecting portion 39 in order to secure a sufficient volatilization amount. However, if a sufficient volatilization amount can be obtained, the second portion 34 may not have the second projecting portion 39 as in the modification shown in FIG. FIG. 7 is a partially cutaway front view of the volatilization device 10 having the volatilization body 30 without the second projecting portion 39 . FIG. 7 shows a state in which the container 20 and the cover 40 are cut.

In this embodiment, the neck portion 25 of the container 20 is formed in a cylindrical shape as an example of a cylindrical shape. However, the neck 25 is not limited to being cylindrically formed. In another example, the neck portion 25 may be formed in a cylindrical shape with an elliptical or polygonal cross section.

In addition, in this embodiment, the length L2 from the contact part 36b of the 1st member 31 of the volatilization body 30 to the fragile part 35b along the line X1 is shorter than the distance L1. However, length L2 may be the same as distance L1, as in the variant shown in FIG. In this case, the fragile portion 35b contacts the bottom surface 23a inside the container 20 . Further, the range from the fragile portion 35b to the lower end 35a of the first member 31 contacts the bottom surface 23a.

In this embodiment, the top surface 25a and the bottom surface 23a of the neck portion 25 are formed on a plane perpendicular to the vertical direction, and the distance L1 between the top surface 25a and the bottom surface 23a is constant at any position.

However, as described above, the bottom surface 23a may not be a plane perpendicular to the vertical direction. Therefore, the distance L1 is preferably the distance from the edge 21a of the opening 21 to the portion of the bottom surface 23a facing the edge 21a of the opening 21 in the vertical direction.

A portion of the bottom surface 23a facing the edge 21a of the opening 21 in the vertical direction is a portion with which the lower end 35a of the volatilization body 30 abuts when the volatilization body 30 is vertically inserted into the container 20 through the opening 21. For this reason, the length L2 along the longitudinal direction from the contact portion 36b to the lower end 35a is made longer than the distance L1 from the edge 21a of the opening 21 to the portion of the bottom surface 23a facing the edge 21a of the opening 21 in the vertical direction. Thus, regardless of the shape of the bottom surface 23a, the lower end 35a comes into contact with the bottom surface 23a.

In this embodiment, since the container 20 has a shape in which the neck portion 25 extends in the vertical direction, the volatilization body 30 is arranged in the container 20 along the longitudinal direction through the opening 21 with its longitudinal direction parallel to the vertical direction. inserted into the However, the insertion direction of the volatilization body 30 is not limited to the vertical direction. For example, depending on the shape of the container 20 , the volatilization body 30 may be inserted into the container 20 in a direction inclined with respect to the vertical direction. As an example of this, the neck portion 25 may extend in a direction inclined in the vertical direction.

Thus, when the volatilization body 30 is inserted into the container 20 through the opening 21 along the direction inclined in the vertical direction, the length L2 along the longitudinal direction of the accommodated portion 6 is from the edge 21a of the opening 21 to the bottom surface. It becomes length along the insertion direction (direction which inclines in the up-and-down direction) of volatilization body 30 to 23a. Even in this case, before the contact portion 36b contacts the edge 21a of the opening 21, the lower end 35a contacts the bottom surface 23a.

In the present embodiment, the core portion 35 of the second member 32 that functions as a rib has a lower end 35a of the core portion 35 of the second member 32 when the second member 32 is combined with the first member 31 . faces the fragile portion 35b of the first member 31 and is in contact with the fragile portion 35b. Therefore, the first member 31 is easily bent at the fragile portion 35b. However, the lower end 35a of the core portion 35 of the second member 32 is not limited to facing and contacting the fragile portion 35b. In another example, the lower end 35a of the core portion 35 of the second member 32 may be arranged near the weakened portion 35b on the contact portion 37b side of the weakened portion 35b. In this manner, the core portion 35 of the second member 32 functioning as a rib is formed in at least a portion of the range between the fragile portion 35b and the contact portion 37b, thereby increasing the strength of the first member 31. Therefore, the first member 31 is easily bent at the fragile portion 35b .

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made in the implementation stage without departing from the scope of the invention. Further, each embodiment may be implemented in combination as appropriate, in which case the combined effect can be obtained. Furthermore, various inventions are included in the above embodiments, and various inventions can be extracted by combinations selected from a plurality of disclosed constituent elements.
