Thereby, in this embodiment, it is not necessary to provide two or more projecting portions or to form a projecting portion having a large diameter, and there is an advantage that the degree of freedom in designing the relay core 3 is high.
- the ink 7 is continuously supplied from the state shown in FIG. 8A to the batting arrangement portion 8, so that the batting 4 is impregnated with the ink 7 as shown in FIG. 8B.
- the ink 7 that has reached the vicinity of the communication hole 13 is pulled by the capillary force of the batting 4. Therefore, the flow of the ink 7 does not stagnate in the vicinity of the communication hole 13 due to the surface tension of the ink 7 or the like.
- the water level of the ink 7 in the batting arrangement portion 8 rises (the boundary line of the water level approaches the ink tank portion 5 side). As shown in FIG. 8C, the water level of the ink 7 in the batting arrangement portion 8 that rises eventually reaches the height (position) of the communication hole 13.
- the ink 7 in the batting arrangement portion 8 rises, the ink 7 is filled up to the position of the communication hole 13 as shown in FIG. As a result, the ink 7 impregnated with the communication holes 13 is liquid-sealed and substantially blocked. And it becomes impossible to introduce external air into the internal space 45 of the ink tank part 5, and supply of the ink 7 to the batting arrangement
- the front side (lower side in FIGS. 8 and 9) of the filling 4 is sufficiently impregnated with the ink 7, and the rear side (upper side in FIGS. 8 and 9) is not impregnated with the ink 7.
- the back side of the batting 4 is not impregnated with the ink 7. However, this is not the case when the ambient temperature rises or the posture of the applicator 1 is inclined.
- the ink 7 supplied to the batting 4 is less likely to flow from the medium density portion 53 to the low density portion 54. That is, since the ink 7 supplied to the batting 4 easily flows toward the pen tip 6, the ink 7 can be supplied to the pen tip 6 stably.
- the applicator 1 is a marker
- the present invention may be an applicator such as a fountain pen, a ballpoint pen, or a correction liquid. Therefore, the raw material and shape of the main body cylinder 2 can be changed as appropriate.
