れることが多い。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) In the conventional containers described above, various improvements have been made to the gas-liquid mixing mechanism in order to improve the generation of bubbles. When the container is tilted at a certain angle, especially when used on its side, the air introduction passage communicating with the gas-liquid mixing mechanism is blocked by the foamable liquid inside the container body. Therefore, when used in the inclined state, almost no bubbles are generated in the foamable liquid from the discharge port, and this is often discharged as is.

の内部に空気が導入される。 When using the container of the present invention, the lid 20 is pulled out and the inside of the cylindrical portion 5 is exposed to the passage 23 of the lid 20.
When the container body 1 is grasped and pressurized while communicating with , passages 11,1 of the gas-liquid mixing means 9
2 into the interior of the foam homogenizing means 8.
At the same time, the air present inside the container body 1 is introduced into the interior of the foam homogenizing means 8 through the pipe 14 and the passages 10, 11, 12. This foam homogenization means 8
The foamable liquid L and air are mixed inside the device, and are discharged from the discharge port 25 as homogeneous bubbles by passing through the means. When the pressurization is released, the discharge is stopped and the check valve 1
8 is separated from the opening 19 and the container body 1 is removed from the opening.
Air is introduced into the interior.

することがない。 When the container is used in an upright position, the foamable liquid L does not exist inside the upper part of the container body 1, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. That is, since a space is created in which air exists, the foamable liquid L does not block the pipe 14, which is the air introduction passage. Even when used in the inverted state, a space similar to that described above is created in the area where the open end 15 of the pipe 14 faces, so that the foaming liquid L does not block the pipe 14 in the same manner as described above.
