ATTACHMENT FOR REFILL CONTAINER

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an attachment for a refill container capable of facilitating attachment and detachment of the refill container to a fuel cell, and suppressing manufacturing cost of the refill container low.

SOLUTION: The attachment 2 is used for connecting the refill container 1 to the fuel cell in supplying fuel from the refill container 1 to the fuel cell. The attachment 2 is provided with a casing 3 and a nozzle port 4. The nozzle port 4 is provided on an end surface of the casing 3, and a valve mechanism 5 is incorporated inside. The valve mechanism 5 operates when the nozzle port 4 is attached on a socket on a side of the fuel cell to open an inside passage 6. A hollow needle 7 is attached on an inner side of the end surface of the casing 3. The hollow needle 7 is connected to a downstream side of the valve mechanism 5 through the inside passage 6. When the casing 3 is attached around the refill container 1, the hollow needle 7 passes through a mouth part of the refill container 1 and the refill container 1 is opened.
