When the canister is replaced, the outer cover 73 is removed, the slider 74 is moved, and the month number of the start-use period month list 96 on the grip portion 71 is started to be aligned with the arrow 102. When the outer cover 73 is assembled, the slider 74 is seen from the window hole 81 of the outer cover 73 through the window 92 of the grip portion 71 as shown in Fig. 15. For the replacement period month list 85 disposed on the right side of the window 81, the upper end of the slider 74 represents the start of use of the canister, and the lower end represents the replacement period of the canister.

Since the slider 74 cannot be touched without removing the cover 73, it is possible to prevent the slider 74 from being accidentally moved when the user uses the pot type water purifier. In addition, since the replacement period month list 85 shows the range from the start use period of the canister to the replacement period, how much the filter can is used for the life of the canister to the user so far, and only the replacement period is displayed. The method can provide more information to the user.

In order to clearly communicate the effective period of the canister, the slider 74 can be configured to facilitate viewing of the colored members through the window 92.

The inner container support portion 15 will be described with reference to Fig. 16. Fig. 16 is a longitudinal sectional view showing the inner container as viewed from the right side.

The inner container support portion 15 that constitutes the upper portion of the main body container 11 is provided with a female screw 41 that can be coupled to the outer circumferential thread 33 of the inner container 12 on the inner wall, and a gasket (large size) that will be fitted to the outer circumference of the inner container 12 The shape of the sealing surface 42 which is in contact with the lower side of the female thread 41 and the spout 43 which drains the purified water at the upper end are formed of polystyrene. Further, a welding groove 44 for ultrasonic welding with the purified water storage portion 14 is provided at the lower end across the entire circumference.

Since the same raw materials are used for the purified water storage unit 14 and the internal container supporting portion 15, the bonding property of ultrasonic welding is good. The periphery of the inner container support portion 15 has many members or threaded structures due to the inner container support portion 15 and the inner container 12, or the inner container 12 and the cap 13 and the like, and the transparent material can be seen in a disordered state, and the inner container support portion is visible. 15 is preferably an opaque colored member.

A solder bump is provided in the purified water storage portion 14 using a transparent raw material, a welded groove is provided in the inner container supporting portion 15 using the colored raw material, and a transparent raw material is melted during ultrasonic welding to avoid melting the colored raw material and eroding the transparent raw material. Poor appearance.

The purified water is poured out from the gap between the sealing surface 42 of the inner container support portion 15 and the gasket (large size) 34 of the inner container 12. The purified water flows out through the inner wall surface formed on the female thread 41. The female thread 41 may have more than one week on the inner wall of the inner container support portion 15, but since the thread ridge near the spout 43 is removed, the purified water passes through the portion, and the shape of the purified water flowing out is uniform and facilitates pouring. water. Further, since the thread ridge in the vicinity of the grip 61 is also removed, there is an effect that the core portion of the forming mold can be manufactured by sliding without spiral.

The purified water storage unit 14 and the internal container supporting portion 15 may be formed of a resin such as polypropylene, acrylic resin, acrylic resin, polyethylene, or ABS resin (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene; acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resin). The product may also be fixed by a mating connection having a sealing property or by adhesion of an adhesive. However, in the case of a pot-type water purifier that can be stored upside down in the lateral direction, it is feared that water leakage will occur due to the fitting connection, and it will be dissolved into the purified water by the adhesion of the adhesive, and the whole week will be ultrasonically welded. The way of joining can surely prevent water leakage, and can also prevent the dissolution of the adhesive from being better.

The inner container support portion 15 is disposed above the purified water storage portion 14. The clean water storage unit 14 is formed so as to be easily accommodated in the door side of the refrigerator from a bottom surface composed of a long side of about 11 [cm] and a short side of about 8 [cm] at a draft angle of 2 degrees to a width. The shape of the storage rack is approximately 1.5 [cm] in the shape of a curved surface which is slightly expanded by a slightly rectangular parallelepiped opening and connected to the inner container support portion 15. In this case, a portion of the lower rectangular parallelepiped other than the partial curved surface connected to the inner container support portion 15 located above the purified water storage portion 14 is referred to as a slightly rectangular parallelepiped portion. The inner container support portion 15 has a long side of about 12 [cm] and a short side of about 10 [cm] with respect to the upper end of the substantially rectangular parallelepiped portion, and is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape having a maximum diameter of about 15 [cm]. Since the inner container support portion 15 which is larger than the upper end of the slightly rectangular parallelepiped is formed regardless of the size of the short side 10 [cm] of the upper end portion of the slightly rectangular parallelepiped portion of the purified water storage portion 14, the inner container 12 which is fitted inside the inner container support portion 15 The inner diameter is also guaranteed to be at most about 10.5 [cm]. Since the maximum inner diameter is 10 [cm] or more, there is an effect that the user can easily disassemble the canister 2 by extending the hand into the inner container 12. In addition, since the capacity for charging raw water can be increased, the amount of purified water obtained by one filtration can be increased. The maximum diameter of the inner container support portion 15 is increased more than the short side above the purified water storage portion 14, so that the door side storage rack that is easily stored in the refrigerator is realized, and more water is obtained once in the opposite direction. A pot-type water purifier with advantages.

At this time, in the case of the horizontally inverted pot type water purifier, since the outer circumference of the purified water storage unit 14 and the inner container supporting portion 15 is grounded, the pot type water purifier is easily rolled and unstable storage, but this embodiment is The handle 61 is grounded, and has the advantage of preventing the roll of the pot type water purifier and stably stabilizing it laterally.

The structure and the method of using the inner container 12 and the cap 13 will be described with reference to Figs. 17 to 19 . Figure 17 is a cross-sectional view showing the inner container of one embodiment of the present invention as seen from the right side. Figure 18 is a top plan view of an inner container showing a specific embodiment of the present invention. Figure 19 is a cross-sectional view showing the cap of the present invention as seen from the right side.

The inner container 12 has a bowl-like shape having an opening of the canister connection portion 32 on the bottom surface portion and a water supply port 31 into which the raw water is placed, and is formed of impact-resistant polystyrene. Three canister fixing projections 105 are disposed at equal intervals on the inner wall of the canister connection portion 32. When the operation of the pot type water purifier is erected and the lateral inversion is repeated, the stress is applied to the canister connection portion 32 by the weight of the canister 2, and the canister connection portion 32 is gradually released. Happening. On the inner wall of the canister connection portion 32, the canister fixing projection 105 having a thickness of 0.9 [mm] is provided at a gap of 0.6 [mm] with the canister 2. The fitting with the canister 2 is reinforced, so that the canister 2 is not inclined, and the canister connection portion 32 can be prevented from being loosened. On the outer peripheral surface, a peripheral screw 33 is provided on the upper side, and a gasket (large gauge) groove 106 is provided below the outer peripheral screw 33, and a gasket (large size) 34 is attached. An inner circumferential thread 35 is provided on the inner circumferential surface, and a sealing surface 36 is provided above the inner circumferential thread 35. A part of the upper end is formed into a surface, as a surface 37 covering the spout, a surface 37 covering the spout, a slit 38 is provided at a position near the front end of the spout 43, and a height is provided substantially at the center of the surface 37 covering the spout. 3[mm] of the locking projections 39.

The outer peripheral thread 33 is formed by a double thread and is coupled to the female thread of the inner container support portion 15. The water between the outer peripheral thread 33 of the inner container 12 and the female thread 41 of the inner container support portion 15 is loosened. Due to the double thread, the inner container 12 can be moved upward by less rotation than the single thread, which ensures both the flow path of the purified water and the pouring of water. After the water is poured, the outer peripheral thread 33 is locked, and the gasket (large size) 34 is pressed against the sealing surface 42 of the inner wall of the inner container supporting portion 15 to be compressed, and the water stored in the purified water storage portion 14 is sealed so as not to leak. .

The cap 13 has a shape composed of a side surface and a top surface having a threaded ridge on the outer circumference, and is locked into the inner peripheral thread 35 fitted to the inner container 12. On the side outer circumference, the male thread 51 is provided with a single thread, and the washer (small size) above the male thread 51 is used with a groove 58 fitting washer (small size) 52. The inner circumferential thread 35 of the inner container 12 is locked by the male thread 51, and the gasket (small size) 52 is pressed against the sealing surface 36 of the inner container 12 to be compressed, so that the raw water remaining in the inner container 12 does not leak. . A circumferential rib 57 having a height of about 2 [mm] is provided on the back side of the top surface of the cap 13 . In the case where the canister 200 is different from the specific embodiment, the sides of the different canisters 200 are not in contact with the canister fixing projections 105 provided on the inner wall of the canister connection portion 32 of the inner container 12, and the canister is fixedly convex. Block 105 has no effect. The different canisters 200 are supported by circumferential ribs 57 provided on the back side of the top surface of the cap 13, which prevents the canister connection portion 32 from being loosened due to the inclination of the different canisters 200.

A handle 53 having substantially the same length as the outer diameter of the top surface is provided on the top surface. Since the cap 13 can be rotated by grasping the handle, it is convenient to lock the male thread 51. Further, in the case where the scaffolding stored in the refrigerator is inverted, the handle 53 is placed in front of the scaffold, and the water purifying unit 14 is stored in the scaffold in the direction of the inside, so that the handle can be easily removed by the handle 53 in front. Water. Further, in the case where the pot type water purifier is erected in a pull-out type storage box which is stored at a lower position of the refrigerator such as a vegetable and fruit room, the handle 53 can be easily taken out by grasping the handle type 53 to lift the pot type water purifier.

Above the handle 53, there is a cantilevered grip 54. In the state of all the screw locks, the front end of the person located above the spout 43 can be displaced up and down.

Here, the advantages of the grip 54 of the present embodiment will be described using Figs. 20 to 23. Figure 20 is a right side elevational view showing a state in which the inner container and the cap are assembled, according to a specific embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 21 is a front elevational view showing the state of Fig. 20. Fig. 22 is a right sectional view showing a state in which the cap of the embodiment of the present invention is rotated by 180 degrees. Figure 23 is a top plan view showing the position of the inner container and the outer cover when the cap is rotated 180 degrees in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

In the present embodiment, the main body container 11 and the inner container 12, and the inner container 12 and the cap 13 are respectively sealed by locking to prevent water leakage and raw water from leaking. In this case, if the thread between the main body container 11 and the inner container 12 is loosened, the purified water accumulated in the purified water storage portion 14 can be poured out, and the thread between the inner container 12 and the cap 13 does not have to be loosened. However, the inner container 12 does not have a grippable portion, and the operation of grasping the side surface of the inner container 12 to rotate the inner container 12 is extremely unsatisfactory. In addition, a portion that can be grasped is provided in the inner container 12, and sometimes the handle is not attached to the bottle cap 13, and sometimes the handle of the cap 13 interferes with the grippable portion of the inner container 12, and there is no direct improvement in the smoothness of the handle. relationship. Further, in the case where the water supply port 31 above the inner container 12 is filled with raw water for filtration, the cap 13 is not only removed from the inner container 12, but the thread between the main container 11 and the inner container 12 is not loosened. It is ensured that the air outlet in the main body container cannot discharge the air in the main body container in a state where the thread is locked, and the raw water cannot flow into the inside of the canister 2. When supplying raw water filtration, you must not forget to loosen 2 threads, which does not mean that you will use it smoothly.

Therefore, it is assumed that the bottle stopper 13 is rotated by 10 to 180 degrees from the state in which all the threads are locked, and only the screw between the main body container 11 and the inner container 12 is loosened to pour out the purified water, and the bottle stopper 13 is caused. Rotating 180 degrees or more, the thread between the inner container 12 and the cap 13 is loosened to supply the raw water structure, the grip 53 of the cap 13 is attached with the grip 54, and the hook 54 is provided on the back side of the grip 54 The block 55 and the two protrusions which are located on the outer side of the hooking projection 55 and have a thickness of about 2 [mm] and a height of about 3 [mm] over the two projections 56.

First, the cap 13 is turned 5 degrees. The locking projections 39 provided on the face 37 covering the spout of the inner container 12 contact the hooking projections 55. In this state, the cap 13 is again turned away, and the cap 13 is turned away in a state where the hooking projection 55 is hooked to the latching projection 39, so that the inner container 12 is interlocked with the cap 13 while starting to rotate. In the specific embodiment, the hooking projection 55 and the locking projection 39 correspond to the locking means. When the cap 13 is opened in the range of 10 to 180 degrees, the gasket (large gauge) 34 of the inner container 12 and the sealing surface 42 of the inner container support portion 15 are sealed, and the purified water can be poured out. The cap 13 is rotated 180 degrees, and the bump 56 is brought into contact with the upper end of the outer cover 73 of the grip 61. Since the cap 13 is again turned away in this state, the over the bump 56 will pass over the upper end of the outer cover 73, and the grip 54 is elastically deformed upward by about 3 [mm]. At this time, the slit 38 of the inner container 12 is located at the inner container fixing wall 82 of the outer cover 73, and the inner container 12 is stopped at a position rotated by 180 degrees. In the present embodiment, the inner container fixing wall 82 corresponds to a stopping means. The cap 13 is further turned away, and in a state where the inner container 12 is stopped, it passes over the upper end of the outer cover 73 over the projection 56, and as shown in Fig. 22, the latching projection 39 and the hooking projection 55 are released from the locked state. In the specific embodiment, the outer cover 73 corresponds to a releasing means. When the cap 13 is further turned away in this state, the cap 13 can be removed. When the cap 13 is removed, the gasket (large gauge) 34 of the inner container 12 and the sealing surface 42 of the inner container support portion 15 are sealed, and the water supply port 31 above the inner container 12 is filled with raw water, and the raw water is used by itself. After being filtered through the inside of the canister 2, the filtering is completed, the mounting cap 13 is rotated in the closing direction of the cap, the hooking projection 55 is located at the locking projection 39, and the cap 13 and the inner container 12 start to rotate together, and the inner portion of the cap 13 rotates further. The threads between the container 12 and the inner container support 15 and between the cap 13 and the inner container 12 begin to engage. When the screw is coupled, first, the gasket (large gauge) 34 of the inner container 12 and the sealing surface 42 of the inner container support portion 15 are sealed, the hooking projection 55 passes over the locking projection 39, and finally the gasket of the cap 13 (small size) 52 is sealed from the sealing surface 36 of the inner container 12. Since the left side of the locking projection 39 is inclined, the hooking projection 55 can easily pass over the locking projection 39 after the thread is engaged.

In the present embodiment, the male thread 51 constituting the cap 13 is locked into the circumferential thread 35 of the inner container 12 and the gasket (small size) 52 is compressed in the upper and lower directions on the sealing surface 36 of the inner container 12 by different sealing means. The inner container sealing means in which the inner container 12 is sealed, and the outer peripheral thread 33 of the inner container 12 are locked into the female screw 41 of the inner container supporting portion 15, and the gasket (large size) 34 is compressed in the upward and downward directions on the sealing surface of the inner container supporting portion 15. 42 means for sealing the body container in which the main body container 11 is sealed. Therefore, even if the pot type water purifier is placed upside down in the state where the purified water or the raw water before the filtration is filled, the purified water or the raw water does not leak, and the purified water and the raw water are not mixed. Since the pot type water purifier can be stored upside down in the lateral direction, and the door side storage rack of the refrigerator cannot be installed, the storage place or the direction can be freely selected by the scaffolding stored in the refrigerator or the like.

In this embodiment, the cap 13 is turned away in a state where the hooking projection 55 of the cap 13 is hooked to the latching projection 39 of the inner container 12, and the inner container 12 is rotated together with the cap 13 to rotate together. Since the rotational force of the cap 13 is transmitted to the locking means of the inner container 12, the cap 13 is rotated by 10 to 180 degrees, and the thread between the main body container 11 and the inner container 12 is released to pour off the purified water.

In addition, the latch 13 is turned 180 degrees, the upper end of the cover 73 of the cover that contacts the handle 61 over the bump 56, passes over the upper end of the cover 73 over the bump 56, and the latching projection 39 and the hooking projection 55 are released. Since the locking state is released, only the screw cap 13 is rotated by 180 degrees or more to loosen the thread between the inner container 12 and the cap 13 to supply raw water.

Further, when the locking projection 39 and the hooking projection 55 are released from the locked state, the slit 38 of the inner container 12 is located in the inner container fixing wall 82 of the outer cover 73, and the inner container 12 is stopped at a position rotated by 180 degrees. Therefore, the release of the locked state can be surely performed.

The main container sealing means is formed by double thread forming, and the inner container sealing means is formed by a single thread. Therefore, when the two kinds of threads are combined by the holding bolt cover 13, the single-thread inner container sealing means is easy to be tightly coupled, and thus has the holding cap 13 When opening the cap, it is convenient to open the sealing means of the body container first. Further, since the double thread rotates less than the single thread to move the inner container 12 upward, it has the effect of ensuring the flow path for pouring out the purified water and facilitating the pouring of water.

Japanese Patent No. 3,954,971 discloses that the front surface of the spout side has a semicircular shape in which the flat section for pouring water is formed, and the horizontal section which is stably placed on the back side is an angular shape, and the lower side of the back side is a horizontal sectional angle type. The central depression is equipped with a closed type cold water cylinder with a handle in the range of the depression. However, since the center of the horizontal cross-sectional angle is recessed, there is a problem that a space which cannot be carefully cleaned is formed on both sides of the recess, which is not preferable in terms of hygiene. In addition, the conventional cold water tube shape in which a part of the side surface is not vertically mounted without a handle is still present in the lateral direction. However, in this embodiment, the handle 61 is attached first, and the ease of handling or pouring is added. Ease of use. Further, the grip portion 71 of the handle 61 attached to the plastic container such as the conventional cold water cylinder, which is easy to roll and unstable when stored in the lateral direction, is grounded at the same time as the water storage portion 14 when the glass is inverted in the lateral direction. The shape of the pot type water purifier. It has the effect of preventing rolling in the case of lateral inversion and being stably placed. Further, it is assumed that the spout 43 is located in a shape vertically below the grip portion 71 when the water is poured out irrespective of the angle of the grip 61. It has the effect that the spout 43 is located at a position convenient for pouring water even if the user does not adjust. That is, as described above, the problem to be solved by the present embodiment is to provide a water purifier having a grip on the outside of the container, a low height when stored in the laterally inverted state, and a laterally inverted stable storage.

Further, the outer diameter of the inner container supporting portion 15 is made larger than the short side of the upper end portion of the substantially rectangular parallelepiped portion of the purified water storage portion 14, so that the door-side storage rack that is easily stored in the refrigerator can be obtained, and the water can be obtained at a time. The advantages of the type water purifier. In the case where the shape is easy to roll when placed in the lateral direction, the shape of the clean water storage unit 14 and the grip portion 71 are grounded at the same time, and can be stably placed.

As described above, it is convenient to store the door-side storage rack of the refrigerator and to obtain a large shape of a water-type water purifier at a time. As shown in Fig. 26, the grip 61 has a short side or a long rectangular body portion of the purified water storage portion 14. When the inclination is 20 to 25 degrees, the spout 43 can be formed in a shape that is easy to pour water under the vertical direction of the grip portion 71.

In the case of a canister filled with a filter medium such as an activated carbon or a hollow fiber membrane, it has been known in the past that the filtration capacity of the canister is previously displayed on the water purifier by date, and the user does not forget to perform the function of replacing the canister. Water device (Japanese utility new case registration No. 3155684). However, since the display tank member is attached to the back surface of the cover during the replacement of the canister change date, the replacement display member is erroneously rotated when the cover is removed in order to load the tap water, so that the replacement date is not known. Further, in order to specify the date, the canister replacement period display member is thus enlarged, resulting in a large space in which the display tank replacement period display member needs to be installed. There is a case where the pot type water purifier itself becomes large, and the capacity of the display member is increased when the canister is replaced, so that the capacity becomes small.

In view of such a problem, the present embodiment is equipped with a canister replacement period display means in a grip 61 of an invalid space which is conventionally used by a user. Since it is not necessary to have space for the filter tank replacement period, the pot type water purifier itself can be miniaturized. Further, the sliding structure 74 is movably fitted in the form of the gripping portion 71, and the canister replacement period display member 202 is displayed as an effective period for displaying the canister, and the slider 74 is moved to the effective month list 85, even when the year is over. The replacement period of the canister can still be revealed when the canister is used.

Since the grip portion 71 is provided with the slider positioning groove 95 as the positioning recess, and the positioning convex portion 101 is provided on the inner side of the slider 74, the slider 74 can be fixed at a certain position during use of the canister. It has an effect of preventing a user from easily changing the effective period of the canister when the slider 74 is accidentally touched during use of the pot type water purifier.

By moving the slider 74 in the longitudinal direction of the grip portion 71, the space of the grip 61 can be most effectively used. By increasing the range of movement of the slider 74, the range of characters that can be displayed in the month list 85 can be increased, and a display that is clearly visible for each character can be displayed.

It is assumed that the outer cover 73 is attached to the grip portion 71 of the mounting slider 74, and the shape of the slider 74 cannot be touched without removing the outer cover 73. The effect of preventing the slider 74 from being mistaken by the user in the use of the pot type water purifier can be further improved. Since the window 92 is provided in the outer cover 73, the structure of the slider 74 can be visually observed from the outer side of the outer cover 73, and the effective period of the filtration can be confirmed in the state in which the outer cover 73 is attached. Since it is not necessary to remove the cover 73 during use, the frequency of erroneous movement of the slider 74 can be reduced.

The grip unit 71 is configured to start the use period period list 96. The start of the slider 74 in the start-use period month list 96 is aligned with the number corresponding to the start time of the canister using the arrow 102, so that only the cover 73 is covered with the slider 74 to display the effective period of the canister. The characters of the replacement period month list 85 are arranged on the outer circumference of the outer cover 73. The user can display the effective period of the canister without thinking.

That is, as described above, the problem to be solved by the present specific embodiment is to provide a space for displaying a canister replacement period that can facilitate the preparation of a canister for replacement, and it is not necessary to prepare a space for installing the canister replacement period display means again, and then there is no need to worry. The installation method of the user's misoperation can obtain a water purifier that is safe and sweet.

Others, specific examples may be modified as follows.

The cantilevered grip 54 can be provided as a support for the end of the grip 54 but a grip support 200 can be added adjacent the center of the grip 54 as in Fig. 25. The additional support is provided to shorten the distance of the point of action across the support of the bump 56 and the fulcrum to prevent damage caused by the gripping rod 54 being easily lifted by a small force that is played by the hand or the child.

In addition, there is also a structure in which the buckle 54 is attached to the grip bar 54 so that the grip bar can only mention a certain height to prevent the above-mentioned damage. In the case of the buckle, the shape in which the grip 54 and the grip 53 are sandwiched in the width direction as in Fig. 31 or the insert pin 54 and the grip 53 as shown in Fig. 32 are provided, and the insert pin is formed in an unremovable shape. The shape and so on.

Furthermore, the grip 54 can also be constructed of different members that are detachably mounted to the handle 53. In this case, since the grip 54 is attached by the hinge structure in the up-and-down direction of the grip 54 as shown in Fig. 33, the grip 54 is disengaged when the grip 54 needs to be lifted upward, and the effect of preventing the above-described damage from occurring is obtained. Further, in the vicinity of the center of the hinge, as shown in Fig. 34, the grip 54 and the handle 53 are respectively fitted with concave or convex shapes different from the shaft and the bearing, thereby preventing the latch from being caught by the rotation of the cap 13 It is preferable that the force generated by the tangential direction generated by 39 causes the grip 54 to be easily detached.

The locking means is not limited to a mechanism in which the locking projections 39 and the hooking projections 55 are in side contact with each other, and are hooked to the rotation direction of the cap 13, and may be provided to cover the water injection port of the inner container 12. A locking groove is formed in the surface 37, and a hooking projection 55 on the back side of the gripping lever 54 of the cap 13 is fitted into the locking recess to interlock the inner container 12 with the cap 13 by means of the insertion locking in the up-and-down direction. A hooking projection is also provided in the inner container 12, and the locking groove is provided in the grip 54.

The grip 54 and the handle 53 may be provided with claws on the back surface of the grip 54 and the upper surface of the handle 53, and the grips 54 are press-fitted from above the handle 53, and the claws are fitted to each other to be connected to the shape of Fig. 35. In this case, the grip bar can be moved up and down by the space provided for the insertion of the claws. With this up and down movement, the grip 54 is not elastically deformed in the releasing means provided on the back side of the grip 54 over the projection 56 over the upper end of the outer cover 73. The possibility of fatigue damage of the grip bar 54 due to repeated elastic deformation can be eliminated. In addition, the hooking amount of the claws can be adjusted, and the shape in which the gripping lever 54 is detached from the handle 53 when the gripping lever 54 is raised upward can be realized, and the effect of preventing damage due to the erroneous use of the gripping lever 54 can be achieved.

Instead of the grip 54 , a telescopic rod 106 that can expand and contract in the diameter direction of the cap 13 can be provided in the handle 53 . The telescopic rod 106 is provided with an elastic member such as a spring, and the front end has a rounded shape. A hooking projection 55 is provided on the back side of the telescopic rod 106, and the length of the extension is maintained. When the knob 53 is rotated in a state where the telescopic rod 106 is extended, the locking projections 39 provided on the surface 37 of the water injection opening covering the inner container 12 contact the hooking projections 55. In this state, the handle 53 is further rotated, and the inner container 12 is rotated together with the cap 13 by the locking means of the locking projection 39 and the hooking projection 53. When the handle 53 is rotated by 180 degrees, the leading end of the round end of the telescopic rod 106 comes into contact with the side surface of the outer cover 73 of the handle 61. In this state, the handle 53 is further rotated, and the telescopic rod 106 is pressed by the contact with the outer cover 73, and is contracted on the handle 53 in the diameter direction of the cap 13.
