The filter plug (242) has a property that a repulsive force increases in accordance with a first increasing rate with an increase of an indentation rate when the indentation rate is equal to or less than a specific value as the filter plug (242) is pressed from outside and the repulsive force increases in accordance with a second increasing rate larger than the first increasing rate with the increase of the indentation rate when the indentation rate becomes larger than the specific value. The capsule (26) is destroyed when the indentation rate of the filter plug (242) is equal to or less than the specific value.
