そして、適正にノズル部材15A,15Bを鼻孔内に挿入した後は、使用者は、下側連結部材16Aの押下プレート部28Aを指で押下して、ステム11を押し下げる。
そして、このステム11の押し下げによって吐出器本体12が作動することで、容器本体2内の内容物は、ステム11、連結部材16、およびノズル部材15A,15Bを通して、ノズル孔13から吐出する。これにより、使用者の鼻孔内に内容物が噴射される。
Then, after properly inserting the nozzle members 15A and 15B into the nostrils, the user presses down the pressing plate portion 28A of the lower connecting member 16A with a finger, and presses down the stem 11.
Then, by operating the discharger body 12 by pushing down the stem 11, the contents in the container body 2 are discharged from the nozzle hole 13 through the stem 11, the connecting member 16, and the nozzle members 15A and 15B. Thereby, the contents are injected into the user's nostril.

以上説明したように、本実施形態では、ノズル部材15A,15Bを互いが対向する方向に接近および離間させるように連結部材16うちの上側連結部材16Bが弾性変形可能な軟材質で形成されているので、一対のノズル部材15A,15B間の距離が鼻孔の間隔と適合していなくても、連結部材16の軟材質部分を弾性変形させ、ノズル部材15A,15Bを鼻孔内に挿入することができる。これにより、使用者の鼻孔間の距離に応じてノズル部材15A,15Bの対向方向の相互間距離を調整することができ、使用者の鼻孔間の距離によらず好適にノズル部材15A,15Bを鼻孔に挿入できるので、使い勝手を良好にすることができる。   As described above, in the present embodiment, the upper connecting member 16B of the connecting members 16 is formed of a soft material that can be elastically deformed so that the nozzle members 15A and 15B are moved closer to and away from each other. Therefore, even if the distance between the pair of nozzle members 15A and 15B does not match the interval between the nostrils, the soft material portion of the connecting member 16 can be elastically deformed and the nozzle members 15A and 15B can be inserted into the nostrils. . Thereby, the distance between the opposing directions of the nozzle members 15A and 15B can be adjusted according to the distance between the user's nostrils, and the nozzle members 15A and 15B can be suitably used regardless of the distance between the user's nostrils. Since it can be inserted into the nostril, the usability can be improved.

また、本実施形態では、ノズル部材15A,15Bが、上方に向かうに従い、互いに漸次離間するように、連結部材16に取り付けられているが、この場合、ノズル部材15A,15Bを鼻孔内に挿入する過程で、一対のノズル部材15A,15Bを鼻孔の内面に摺接させたときに、一対のノズル部材15A,15Bを互いが対向する方向に沿って容易に接近および離間させることが可能になり、使い勝手をより良好にすることができる。   In the present embodiment, the nozzle members 15A and 15B are attached to the connecting member 16 so as to be gradually separated from each other in the upward direction. In this case, the nozzle members 15A and 15B are inserted into the nostrils. In the process, when the pair of nozzle members 15A, 15B are brought into sliding contact with the inner surface of the nostril, the pair of nozzle members 15A, 15B can be easily approached and separated along the direction in which they face each other. Usability can be improved.

さらに、本実施形態では、連結部材16のうち、ノズル部材15A,15が各別に装着された装着部34A,34B同士の間に位置する股部46に、上面視で、ノズル部材15A,15Bが対向する方向Lの交差方向に延びる凹溝45が形成されている。
この場合、凹溝45を起点にノズル部材15A,15Bを接近および離間させることが可能となり、ノズル部材15A,15Bを少ない力で接近および離間させることができるとともに、可動範囲を広げることもできるため、使い勝手をより良好にすることができる。
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the nozzle members 15A and 15B are located on the crotch portion 46 located between the mounting portions 34A and 34B, to which the nozzle members 15A and 15 are separately mounted, of the connecting member 16, as viewed from above. A concave groove 45 extending in the direction intersecting the facing direction L is formed.
In this case, the nozzle members 15A and 15B can be approached and separated from the concave groove 45, and the nozzle members 15A and 15B can be approached and separated with a small force, and the movable range can be expanded. , The usability can be improved.
