The main body cup portion 5 has a main body trunk 5a and a main body trunk 5a.
The leg portion 5b is connected to the outer surface of the lower end in a thread-like manner, and the bottom portion 5c is recessed inside the leg portion 5b. The main body body portion 5a has a heart-shaped cross-sectional shape throughout the height direction, and the heart-shaped cross section gradually becomes smaller in the lower section, and the leg portions 5c also have a heart-shaped cross section.

The holding part 3 includes a support part 17 that supports the attached container 2 and a top pressing part 18.

The holding part 3 has a height from a heart-shaped flange part 21 that extends outward from the upper end of the main body cup part 5.
It consists of a wall 20 that hangs down along the side wall of the main body cup portion 5 by _h1 , and an overhanging portion 22 that connects to the wall 20 at this height position and extends horizontally outward.
A support portion 17 is formed in the center of the overhanging portion 22 to further hang down by a height h ₂ (FIG. 1).
That is, the upper surface of the overhanging portion 22 is not a uniform plane, but has a portion in the center surrounded by a superior arc CD, which is a part of an arc with a diameter R ₁ , and a line segment CD (Fig. 3). The part excluding the part forms a flat plane. Here, R ₁ is approximately equal to the diameter R of the flange portion 2b of the attached container 2. Yu-arc CD has overhanging part 22
The outer shape of the wall 23 hangs down by a height h ₂ one step further from the wall 23, is symmetrical about the axis l, and is open toward the apex 14.

The support portion 17 is a flange-shaped portion having a width W extending from the lower end of the wall 23 toward the center O of the superior arc CD. W is approximately equal to the width (R-r)/2 of the flange portion 2b.
The support portion 17 has a hole 25 penetrating the upper and lower surfaces of the overhang portion 22 on the center O side of the support portion 17, and the support portion 17 has a width _r2 slightly narrower than r in plan view and an inner diameter _r1 approximately equal to r. It has an inner edge contour 24 forming a C-shaped circular arc (excellent arc).
