 ホルダ50は、円筒状のゼリーウォーマ60を保持しており、側面支持部材52と底側支持部材54を備えている。側面支持部材52は、例えば樹脂等により円環状に形成されており、その円環状の輪の中にゼリーウォーマ60が挿入され、側面支持部材52がゼリーウォーマ60を側面から支える。一方の底側支持部材54は、例えば金属製の細長い板状の部材であり、その一端が側面支持部材52に固定されている。底側支持部材54は、ゼリーウォーマ60の高さ方向に沿って伸長されており、その他端側がゼリーウォーマ60の底に設けられた空洞内に折り曲げられている。そして、ゼリーウォーマ60の底が、底側支持部材54の折り曲げられた他端に引っ掛けられて、底側支持部材54によりゼリーウォーマ60の底が支えられる。 The holder 50 holds a cylindrical jelly warmer 60 and includes a side surface support member 52 and a bottom side support member 54. The side surface support member 52 is formed in an annular shape by, for example, resin, and the jelly warmer 60 is inserted into the annular ring, and the side surface support member 52 supports the jelly warmer 60 from the side surface. One bottom-side support member 54 is, for example, an elongated plate-like member made of metal, and one end thereof is fixed to the side support member 52. The bottom-side support member 54 extends along the height direction of the jelly warmer 60, and the other end side is bent into a cavity provided at the bottom of the jelly warmer 60. Then, the bottom of the jelly warmer 60 is hooked to the other bent end of the bottom support member 54, and the bottom of the jelly warmer 60 is supported by the bottom support member 54.
 なお、円筒状のゼリーウォーマ60内には、エコーゼリーの入ったボトル62が挿入されている。ボトル62は、その開口部(キャップ部)をゼリーウォーマ60の底側に向けて挿入されている。ゼリーウォーマ60は、その挿入されたボトル62内のエコーゼリーを温める機能を備える。 In the cylindrical jelly warmer 60, a bottle 62 containing echo jelly is inserted. The bottle 62 is inserted with its opening (cap) facing the bottom side of the jelly warmer 60. The jelly warmer 60 has a function of heating the echo jelly in the inserted bottle 62.
 図3は、図1のハンドル40の内部構成を示す分解図である。ハンドル40は、操作パネル20の手前側の縁において、図3に示す左右方向に伸長されて弓なりに張り出して設けられる。そのハンドル40内には、ハンドル40の伸長方向に沿ったガイドレール44が設けられている。そのガイドレール44上には、スライダー42が載せられており、このスライダー42が、ガイドレール44を伸長方向に沿って移動する。 FIG. 3 is an exploded view showing an internal configuration of the handle 40 of FIG. The handle 40 is provided at the edge on the near side of the operation panel 20 so as to extend in the left-right direction shown in FIG. A guide rail 44 is provided in the handle 40 along the extending direction of the handle 40. A slider 42 is placed on the guide rail 44, and the slider 42 moves along the extending direction of the guide rail 44.
 なお、図2を利用して説明したように、スライダー42には吊り下げ具48が取り付けられており、さらに、側面支持部材52を備えたホルダ50が、その吊り下げ具48に接続されている。 As described with reference to FIG. 2, a hanging tool 48 is attached to the slider 42, and a holder 50 including a side support member 52 is connected to the hanging tool 48. .
 図3には、円環状の側面支持部材52と、その側面支持部材52によって側面を支えられたゼリーウォーマ60と、ゼリーウォーマ60内に挿入されたエコーゼリーのボトル62も図示されている。 3 also shows an annular side support member 52, a jelly warmer 60 supported on the side by the side support member 52, and an echo jelly bottle 62 inserted into the jelly warmer 60.
 図4は、図3の分解図におけるスライダー42とその周辺の拡大図である。スライダー42は、その四隅に4つのローラーRを備えており、これら4つのローラーRがガイドレール44上において回転移動することにより、スライダー42が滑らかにガイドレール44に沿って移動する。スライダー42の右側(図3参照)に設けられる2つのローラーRが1つの部品として纏められ、スライダー42の左側(図3参照)に設けられる2つのローラーRが1つの部品として纏められてもよい。 FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of the slider 42 and its surroundings in the exploded view of FIG. The slider 42 is provided with four rollers R at the four corners thereof, and the slider 42 moves smoothly along the guide rail 44 as the four rollers R rotate on the guide rail 44. Two rollers R provided on the right side (see FIG. 3) of the slider 42 may be combined as one component, and two rollers R provided on the left side (see FIG. 3) of the slider 42 may be combined as one component. .
 なお、必要に応じて、ハンドル40の伸長方向に沿ったいくつかの箇所において、ガイドレール44に沿って移動するスライダー42の動きを抑制するストッパー機構を設けてもよい。つまり、ハンドル40に吊り下げられたホルダ50やゼリーウォーマ60が勝手に移動しないように動きを規制する機構を設けてもよい。もちろん、その規制は、ユーザが手でホルダ50を動かす程度で解除できることが望ましい。 It should be noted that a stopper mechanism that suppresses the movement of the slider 42 that moves along the guide rail 44 may be provided at some points along the extending direction of the handle 40 as necessary. That is, you may provide the mechanism which controls a movement so that the holder 50 suspended from the handle 40 and the jelly warmer 60 may not move arbitrarily. Of course, it is desirable that the regulation can be released by moving the holder 50 by hand.
