Container with elastic screen

Abstract

A container with elastic screen has a container body with an opening therein for extracting the contents; an outer lid that seals the opening, detachably attachable to the container body; a screen made of elastic mesh material, disposed so as to cover the opening; and a mesh adjustment mechanism for adjusting a mesh size of the screen. The mesh adjustment mechanism includes a moving member and a fixed member. With a normal direction to the plane in which the screen is stretched as the vertical direction, the moving member has a portion that contacts in a ring shape the peripheral edge of the top surface of the screen and makes the portion movable in the vertical direction with respect to the opening. The fixed member is fixed to the opening while fixing a vertical position of the moving member.
