When you want to move the liquid storage tank 2, a part of the liquid storage tank 2 is first leaned against the supporting surface 112. At this time, the holding member 130 is in an expanded state relative to the base 110 as shown in FIG. The screw 160 can be activated and drive the holding member 130 close to the leaning side of the liquid storage barrel 2 so that the rotating member 136 abuts on the liquid storage barrel 2 and temporarily holds it. The liquid storage barrel 2 is temporarily held by the aforementioned assisting member 120 and base. After the seat 110 is rotated to a predetermined position, all the holding members 130 are tightened together until the rotating member 136 abuts against the body of the liquid storage barrel 2 and becomes the state shown in FIG. 6, whereby the liquid storage barrel 2 It is ensured that the rotating member 136 is held in each position of the base 110 and will not fall from the base 110 due to external force or other factors, and because the rotating member 136 can rotate in accordance with the curve of the barrel of the liquid storage barrel 2, it can Reduce the deformation of the barrel caused by pressure when the element contacts the soft barrel. In addition, when the loaded liquid storage tank 2 has different specifications and sizes, the center of the liquid storage tank 2 can also be moved to a predetermined position by tightening the holder 130, so that it can correspond to different specifications and sizes. Liquid storage tank 2.
