まで浄水効率を高めることができる。In particular, the water purifying material of the water purifier is housed in a flat plate-like case, and the front and back faces the transparent portions of the front and back of the case in the same flat plate shape, so that the volume of the water purifying material comes into contact with the content liquid. The area ratio increases, and since the case is supported away from the inner surface of the hot water storage area of the vessel, the contact area of the water purification material is in direct contact with the content liquid through the permeation parts on the front and back of the case. However, due to the small thickness of the water purification material, the trapping of air bubbles is reduced, and the permeation distance of the content liquid into the water purification material is extremely small.
Since the efficiency of the content liquid penetrating into the water purification material and contacting the water purification material also increases, the water purification efficiency can be increased with a simple structure in which the water purifier is simply immersed.

Since the water purifier can be supported so as to project from the inner surface of the hot water storage area, it works to receive the content liquid that moves by convection or pouring in the hot water storage area on the front and back sides of the case forming the wide permeation area. The water content can be more actively contacted with the water purification material through the water, and the water purification efficiency can be further improved.

きる。A structure in which the water purifier is connected so as to be swingable with respect to the mounting portion, or the mounting portion forms an attraction portion that exerts a magnetic attraction force with the magnetic attraction portion of the container, The magnetic attraction part of the body is a locking surface that bends in at least one direction so that the water purifier sways in this bending direction, and the attachment part attaches the water purifier to the body lid of the body. According to the structure that is suspended,
The water content oscillates in response to convection due to heating or pouring, and due to the difference in speed and movement direction with the movement of the content liquid at this time, bubbles that are difficult to move are trapped inside the water purification material and are difficult to move. Because it is pushed or pulled by the outside of the water purification material, air bubbles are trapped inside the water purification material and it does not move, impeding the content liquid from penetrating into the water purification material and contacting it, impairing the water purification function. Such a thing can be avoided.

Even if you do not use a filter-like material such as a non-woven fabric that has fine meshes and prevents direct contact between the activated carbon and the content liquid, the finely-divided activated carbon does not leak out and is retained by a mesh material with large meshes. Then, direct contact between the activated carbon and the content liquid can be achieved to improve the water purification efficiency.
