Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable an interior condition of a water supplying tank to be viewed from an outside part and facilitate a maintenance of the water supplying tank by a method wherein an outer frame wall of the water supplying tank or a part of the outer frame wall is made of transparent or opaque member. CONSTITUTION:Since an outer frame wall 31a of a water supplying tank 31 has a resin as its transparent or an opaque member, a presence or of water within the water supplying tank 31 or an operating condition of a float switch 5 can be seen from outside part due to its transparent or opaque characteristic. Further, it is possible to make a discrimination at a glance for a trouble state of the float switch 5 or a solenoid valve 3. The outer frame wall 31a may be made of transparent or opaque glass. A part of the outer frame wall 31a may be made of transparent or opaque resin or glass.
