A thermoelectric module (7) having exothermic and endothermic surfaces, which are heated and cooled, respectively, when an electric current is supplied thereto is built in a manifold body (17), and a cavity (10c, 10d, 20d) is defined therein for entry of a fluid medium in cooperation with at least one of the exothermic and endothermic surfaces, together with a hollow (10a, 10b, 20a, 20b) that extends from an outside to the cavity. A stirring member (5) having a stirring portion (15) integrated together with a rotor (16) within the manifold body (17) for stirring the fluid medium within the cavity is disposed within the manifold body, so that a motor can be formed by the rotor (16) and a stator (8). In this structure, the stirring member (5) is rotated by supplying an electric power to the stator (8), to allow the fluid medium to reach the vacity (10c, 10d) through the interior of the rotor (16). <IMAGE> |
