The upper frame 1 has a flat hollow hemispherical shape, and a protrusion 5 of a predetermined width is formed on the outer periphery of the lower end thereof over the entire circumference. A plurality of protrusions 6 are arranged at predetermined angular intervals in the circumferential direction on the inner circumferential surface where the protrusions 5 are located. A stopper 6a is formed in a protruding manner.

Further, in the vicinity of the protrusion 6, long holes 7 are formed in the upper frame 1 along the circumferential direction at predetermined intervals, and these long holes 7 play the role of diffusing the fragrance.

In addition, almost the upper frame 1 is located in the center of the upper end of the upper frame 1.
A bulge 8 is formed across the ridge. The purpose of this bulging portion 8 is to prevent the upper frame 1 from completely blocking the opening of the tray if the container is placed upside down on the tray by mistake.

On the other hand, the lower frame 2 is formed as a hollow ring strip having approximately the same diameter as the upper frame 1.

That is, the lower frame 2 consists of an outer wall 9 and an inner wall 10 whose lower end is continuous with the outer wall 9. The outer wall 9 has an arc-shaped cross section, and the inner wall 10 is an upright wall. A peripheral wall 11 having an outer diameter one step smaller in diameter is formed at the upper end of the outer wall 9.

The outer diameter of this peripheral wall 11 is approximately the same as the inner diameter of the inner circumferential surface on which the protrusions 5 of the upper frame 1 are located, and protrusions 12 are protruded from the outer circumferential surface at predetermined intervals in the circumferential direction. These protrusions 12 ride on the protrusions 6 of the upper frame 1 and engage with the stoppers 6a.

Further, from the outside of the outer wall 9 to the lower end, a plurality of legs 13 protrude vertically downward from a plate-shaped leg 13 along the circumferential direction. A single thread 14 is formed along the circumferential direction on the inner surface of the upper end of the inner wall 10, extending almost around one circumference.

Further, a plurality of stepped portions 9a are formed at predetermined intervals along the circumferential direction from the outer wall 9 to the inner wall 10 so as to sandwich the legs 13, and the lower end portions of the inner wall 10 corresponding to the legs 13 are opened. A portion 10a is formed.

Note that the stepped portion 9a and the opening 10a serve as openings through which water flows into the container.

On the other hand, the middle frame 3 is formed into a dish shape, and a flange 15 is provided horizontally protruding outward from the upper end opening thereof, and an uneven strip 15a is formed along the thickness direction on the outer periphery of the flange 15. .

A cylindrical portion 16 is continuously formed on the flange 15, and threads 17 are formed on the upper end side of the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 16 at a predetermined pitch over approximately four circumferences. The thread 14 of the inner wall 10 of the lower frame 2 engages with this thread 17 to perform a screw connection.

A bottom plate 18 is formed at the lower end of the cylindrical portion 16, and a plurality of openings 18a are formed radially in the bottom plate 18.
Openings 16a are formed opposite these openings 18a. Further, a bottom plate 1 is provided on the outer periphery of the bottom plate 18.
A flange 18b that is one step thinner than 8 is formed. A notch 18c is formed in a part of this flange 18b, including a part of the bottom plate 18, and in this notch 18c, an arm forming a part of a cylinder, 1
The lower end of 9 faces out as a free end.

A protrusion 19a is provided on the outer surface of the lower end of the arm 19.

This protrusion 19a is pressed against the inner wall 10 of the lower frame 2 and is fitted into the stepped portion 9a, giving a click feeling to the rotation of the middle frame 3.

Further, on the upper surface of the bottom plate 18 and on both sides of the opening 18a, protrusions 18d are formed to slightly float the drug 4 above the bottom plate 18 and make it easier for the bottom surface of the drug 4 to come into contact with water.

Next, a method of using this embodiment configured as described above will be explained.

First, with the medicine 4 accommodated in the middle frame 3, the cylindrical part 16 of the middle frame 3 is fitted inside the inner wall 10 of the lower frame 2, and the flange 18b at the lower end of the cylindrical part 16 and the inner surface of the inner wall 10 are formed. The protrusion 19a of the arm 19 of the cylindrical part 16 is guided to the lower side of the thread 14 through the gap between the starting end and the terminal end of the thread 14, and the thread 14 and the cylindrical part 16 are engaged with each other. The screw thread 17 is screwed together.

When the middle frame 3 is rotated in this state, the middle frame 3 moves up and down in accordance with the direction of rotation.

At this time, the arms 19 of the middle frame 3 are elastically deformed, and the projections 19a climb over the inner wall 10 of the lower frame 2 and reach the step portion 9.
a and is provisionally fixed within a predetermined opening 10a.

In this way, the middle frame 3 is rotated, moved up and down, and the medicine 4 is positioned on the tray 20 according to the amount of water.

Next, cover the upper frame 1 from above, engage the protrusion 12 on the peripheral wall 11 of the lower frame 2 with the protrusion 6 formed on the inner surface of the upper frame 1, and rotate the protrusion 12 to rotate the protrusion 12 on the slope of the protrusion 6. and engages with the stopper 6a to fix the upper frame 1 to the lower frame 2.

In this way, adjust the position of the medicine 4, and
The medicine 4 is placed on the tray with the center of the medicine 4 fixed and the opening 20a of the tray 20 aligned (FIG. 17).

Although it is used in this state, the fragrance diffuses from the elongated holes 7 in the upper frame 1 while water is not being poured. When water is poured, the water hits the top of the upper frame 1, is guided onto the tray 20, and flows into the stepped portion 9 of the lower frame 2.
a, opening 10a and opening 16a of middle frame 3,
It enters the container from 18a, comes into contact with the medicine 4, dissolves it, enters the opening 20a, and is supplied with water.

At this time, the position of drug 4 is adjusted, so
With proper contact with the water stream, the drug dissolves in the appropriate amount, so there is no wasted drug consumption.

[Effects] As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, the inner frame containing the drug and the lower frame are screwed together, so the position of the drug can be adjusted simply by turning the middle frame. , the amount of drug dissolved can be adjusted depending on the amount of water on the tray, making it extremely economical.
