It is formed to a large size.

The support portion 5 of the water tray 2 is located around the bottom of the container 3.
The diameter 8 is appropriately reduced so that the container 3 can be housed in the water tray 2 and detachably attached thereto.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, this reduced diameter 8 is formed to have a slightly smaller diameter than the inner diameter of the support part 5 of the water tray 2, and is formed in a tapered shape toward the bottom to match the inner peripheral shape of the support part 5. At the same time, the support part 5
The width is approximately the same as the depth.

Note that there are a plurality of steam vents 3a at the bottom of the container 3...
is provided.

A stepped portion 9 is formed on the inner peripheral edge of the opening of the container 3 so that the peripheral edge of the lid 4 can be seated to provide the lid 4 at the opening of the container 3.

That is, this stepped portion 9 is formed so that the peripheral edge of the opening of the container 3 is appropriately enlarged in diameter outward, so that the peripheral edge of the lid 4 (described later) can be seated thereon, and the peripheral edge 7 of the water tray 2 can be engaged with the stepped portion 9. It is configured as possible. Further, the rising portion 10 formed on the periphery of the stepped portion 9 is formed to be higher than the thickness of the periphery of the lid 4 and the periphery 7 of the water tray 2, and the upper end of this rising portion 10 is directed outward. It is processed as if it were rolled into.

The lid 4 is formed of a shielding material made of the same material as the container 3 into a substantially circular inverted dish shape, and has a lower end peripheral diameter smaller than an inner peripheral diameter of the opening of the water tray 2. The peripheral wall 4a of the body 4 is formed with a larger taper than the peripheral wall of the support portion 5 of the water receiving tray 2. The height of the lid 4 near the peripheral wall is lower than the depth of the support portion 5 of the water tray 2, and the height of the lid 4 is equal to the height of the lid 4 including the knob 11 provided at the center of the lid 4. is formed lower than the depth from the opening of the water receiving portion 7 of the water receiving tray 2.
