For example, the cap is attached to the measuring chamber forming body so as to be movable up and down, and the measuring level adjusting means (the overflow cylinder, the measuring chamber bottom plate portion of the cap, the measuring chamber bottom plate, etc.) of each of the above-described embodiments is operated by the vertical movement operation applied to the cap. It may be driven.

Further, the measuring chamber forming body may be integrally formed with the container body.
