     In an electrostatic spray device in JP 2007-521941 A, a field electrode is disposed to cover the entire container in which a liquid composition is contained, and is configured to apply approximately a common potential to the liquid composition. For this reason, in the electrostatic spray device in JP 2007-521941 A, there is a problem that the field electrode is required to have a large size, and thus, the dimension (the volume) of a housing increases. 
     Therefore, the present invention relates to an electrostatic spray device that can be downsized.

     According to an electrostatic spray device according to the present invention, the device can be downsized. 
     Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment for carrying out the present invention will be described by using the drawings. Note that, the following embodiment does not limit the present invention according to each of the claims, and all combinations of the characteristics described in the embodiment are not essential for means for solving the problems of the present invention. 
     [Overall Configuration and Operation Outline of Electrostatic Spray Device] 
     An electrostatic spray device  10  according to this embodiment, as illustrated in  FIG. 1A ,  FIG. 1B , and  FIG. 2 , includes a cartridge  100  containing a liquid, and an electrostatic spray main body  200  for which the cartridge  100  can be inserted and removed. In addition, the electrostatic spray device  10  according to this embodiment further includes a cap  11  to be mounted on the electrostatic spray main body  200 , in which the cap  11  is removed in use (refer to  FIG. 1B ), and the cap  11  is mounted after use (refer to  FIG. 1A ). 
     The electrostatic spray device  10  according to this embodiment is a hand-held type device which has a shape or a size that a user is capable of holding with a hand, and sprays a liquid composition (the liquid) toward a target by an electrostatic spray method. The electrostatic spray method is a method in which a high voltage (for example, several kV to several dozen kV) is applied to a liquid composition (for example, a solution in which a high-molecular compound is dissolved in a volatile solvent) such that the liquid composition is electrostatically charged, and the liquid composition is sprayed toward the target by an electrostatic force based on a potential difference between the electrically charged liquid composition and a target. The liquid composition sprayed by the electrostatic spray method is sent toward the target that is in the shape of an ultrafine yarn. In the sprayed liquid composition, the solvent that is a volatile substance is dried while the liquid composition is sprayed and then, is sent toward the target and after the liquid composition is attached to the target, and thus, a film can be formed on the surface of the target. Note that, the electrostatic spray device  10  according to this embodiment can also be used as an electrostatic spinning device spraying a solution containing a raw material for electrostatic spinning, that is, a spinning liquid toward the target. 
     For example, in a case where a solution containing a volatile substance, a water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber, and water is adopted as the liquid composition, the user holds the electrostatic spray device  10  with the hand and sprays the liquid composition toward the skin of the user, and thus, a film can be formed on the surface of the skin of the user. The film is a deposited material containing a fiber. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 2 , the electrostatic spray main body  200  includes a housing  210 , and a cover  250  to be mounted on the housing  210 . For the housing  210 , the cartridge  100  and the cover  250  are attachable and detachable. 
     The housing  210  and the cover  250  are formed of an insulating material, that is, a material having properties of hardly conducting electricity. Note that, here, “insulating” or “hardly conducting electricity”, for example, indicates having volume resistivity (ASTM D257, JIS K6911) of greater than 10 12  Ωm. For example, an insulating organic material such as a synthetic resin, an insulating inorganic material such as glass or ceramic, or the like is exemplified as the insulating material used in the housing  210  and the cover  250 . For example, polypropylene (PP), polyacetal, polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), monomer cast nylon, and the like can be used as the insulating organic material. On the other hand, a conductive material indicates a material having properties of easily conducting electricity, that is, a material, for example, having volume resistivity of less than or equal to 10 −2  Ωm. 
     [Configuration of Cover] 
     The cover  250  will be described with reference to  FIG. 1B  and  FIG. 2 . The cover  250  includes one opening  251  and the other opening  253 , and is in a tubular shape in which an opening area is narrowed toward the other opening  253  from one opening  251 . For this reason, one opening  251  is wider than the other opening  253 . A portion along one opening  251  of the cover  250  is an abutting edge portion  252 . Such an abutting edge portion  252  is fitted into a second engaging step  225  of the housing  210  described below, and thus, the cover  250  is mounted on the housing  210 . In a case where the cover  250  is mounted on the housing  210  on which the cartridge  100  described below is mounted, a nozzle  123  of the cartridge  100  passes through the other opening  253  of the cover  250 , and a spray hole  123   a  of the nozzle  123  is in a state of facing the outside of the cover  250 . That is, the cover  250  is configured to allow the spray of the liquid composition from a spray unit  120  of the cartridge  100  even in the case of being mounted on the housing  210 . 
     Even when the cover  250  is closely mounted on the housing  210 , a minute gap may exist between the abutting edge portion  252  of the cover  250  and the second engaging step  225  formed on an attachable and detachable surface  222  of the housing  210  described below. That is, even when the cover  250  is closely mounted on the housing  210 , a minute gap may exist in a boundary portion (a parting line portion) between the cover  250  and the housing  210 . 
     [Configuration of Cartridge] 
     The cartridge  100  is a disposable container to be exchangeably mounted on a device that is a supply target of the liquid, and a use application thereof is not particularly limited, but in this embodiment, the cartridge  100  is a cartridge for an electrostatic spinning device that is used in an electrostatic spinning device. Specifically, as illustrated in  FIG. 2 , the cartridge  100  includes a liquid containing pouch (a liquid containing portion)  110  that is capable of containing the liquid, and the spray unit  120  spraying the liquid in the liquid containing pouch  110 . 
     The liquid containing pouch  110  is a flat pouch-shaped airtight container formed by stacking two sheet bodies having the same shape and the same size and by joining (in this embodiment, heat-sealing) the circumferential edge portions of both of the sheet bodies, and contains the liquid composition inside. 
     Each of the sheet bodies includes a laminated body including an inner layer that forms an inner surface at the time of being in the shape of a pouch, an outer layer that forms an outer surface, and a conductive layer that is disposed between the inner layer and the outer layer, the outer layer and the inner layer are formed to have a thickness that is thin enough to be conductive, and thus, the sheet bodies have conductivity. Note that, an arbitrary layer, for example, an adhesive layer such as a PET film, and the like may be further provided between the inner layer and the outer layer. 
     It is preferable that the inner layer is formed of a sealant layer that has resistance to the liquid composition to be contained and has a sealant effect (heat-sealing properties). Specifically, non-stretched polypropylene (CPP), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), a blend of LDPE and LLDPE, medium-density polyethylene (MDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), metallocene polyethylene, an ethylene vinyl acetate copolymerization film (EVA), and the like can be used. Among them, the low-density polyethylene (LDPE), the linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), and the blend of LDPE and LLDPE are preferable. The thickness of the inner layer is preferably greater than or equal to 30 μm, and is more preferably greater than or equal to 40 μm. In addition, the thickness of the inner layer is preferably less than or equal to 150 μm, and is more preferably less than or equal to 80 μm. 
     The outer layer is formed of a material having a mechanical strength that is more excellent than that of the inner layer. For example, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), stretched polypropylene (OPP), stretched nylon (ONy), and the like are exemplified as the material of the outer layer. Among them, the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is preferable. The thickness of the outer layer is preferably greater than or equal to 10 μm, and is more preferably greater than or equal to 15 μm. In addition, the thickness of the outer layer is preferably less than or equal to 30 μm, and is more preferably less than or equal to 20 μm. The outer layer may include a printing layer on the interface with the conductive layer. In general, the printing layer is formed of an ink containing a coloring agent that is easily dissolved in a high-volatility solvent liquid composition as a main component. 
     The conductive layer is formed of a material having conductivity that is capable of applying a voltage applied from the outer layer side to the liquid composition through the inner layer. For example, an aluminum sheet can be used as the conductive layer. The thickness of the aluminum sheet is preferably greater than or equal to 5 μm, and is more preferably greater than or equal to 7 μm. The thickness of the aluminum sheet is preferably less than or equal to 15 μm, and is more preferably less than or equal to 9 μm. 
     In addition, a vapor-deposited film in which aluminum, aluminum oxide, conductive silica, indium tin oxide (ITO), zinc oxide (ZnO), tin dioxide (SnO 2 ), or the like is vapor-deposited on a resin film such as a PET film or a polypropylene (PP) film can also be used as the conductive layer. The thickness of the resin film is preferably greater than or equal to 10 μm, and is more preferably greater than or equal to 15 μm. The thickness of the resin film is preferably less than or equal to 30 μm, and is more preferably less than or equal to 20 μm. 
     The vapor-deposited film can be configured by suitably combining the resin film with the material of a vapor-deposited layer. In particular, it is preferable that the PET film is used as the resin film, and the aluminum is used as the vapor-deposited layer. 
     The conductive layer has volume resistivity that is capable of sufficiently applying a voltage to the liquid composition in the liquid containing pouch  110 . Specifically, the conductive layer, for example, preferably has volume resistivity of less than or equal to 10 −2  Ωm, and more preferably has volume resistivity of less than or equal to 10 −7  Ωm. 
     In addition, the conductive layer is provided over a range that is capable of sufficiently applying a voltage to the liquid composition in the liquid containing pouch  110 . Specifically, the conductive layer preferably occupies a range of greater than or equal to 5%, more preferably occupies a range of greater than or equal to 10%, even more preferably occupies a range of greater than or equal to 30%, and is still even more preferably provided over the entire surface of the liquid containing pouch  110 , with respect to the entire liquid containing pouch  110 . The conductive layer is provided to occupy the range described above, and thus, even in a case where the residual amount of the liquid composition is reduced with the use, the liquid composition and the conductive layer can be prevented from being separated from each other, and therefore, a voltage can be stably applied to the liquid composition. In addition, in a case where the conductive layer is partially provided, it is preferable that a part (a conductive portion) thereof is provided at a containing location of the liquid composition, and it is preferable that the position thereof is closer to the spray unit  120  from the viewpoint of sufficiently applying a voltage to the liquid composition even in a case where the residual amount of the liquid composition is reduced with the use. Further, the conductive layer (the conductive portion) may be provided only on one surface of the liquid containing pouch  110 , and it is preferable that the conductive layer is provided on both surfaces of the liquid containing pouch  110  from the viewpoint of reliably applying a voltage to the liquid composition even in a case where the residual amount of the liquid composition is reduced with the use. 
     The conductive layer may function as a barrier layer that prevents the liquid composition in the liquid containing pouch  110  from being infiltrated into the outer layer. As described above, the conductive layer functions as the barrier layer, and thus, the transpiration of the liquid composition (a volatile liquid solvent) can be suppressed, and therefore, the precipitation of a polymer or the like that is dissolved in the liquid composition can be suppressed, and the stability of the content can be effectively improved. In addition, in a case where the aluminum sheet or the vapor-deposited film is used in the conductive layer, the conductive layer itself has light blocking properties, and thus, the content can be effectively protected. Further, it is not necessary to impart the light blocking properties to the printing layer, and thus, the number of colors that can be used in printing can be increased. Further, the conductive layer has glossiness, and thus, design properties can be improved. 
     The liquid containing pouch  110  has flexibility such that a region inside the joined circumferential edge portion can be deformed in accordance with a volume change in the content (for example, a reduction in the amount of liquid composition that is contained). That is, the liquid containing pouch  110  includes the circumferential edge portion that is not deformed in accordance with the volume change in the content, and a flexible region that is deformable in accordance with the volume change in the content. When the liquid composition is sufficiently contained, the flexible region of the liquid containing pouch  110  is in a swollen shape that is swollen to the outside, but a swelling amount is gradually reduced as the liquid composition that is contained is reduced, and finally, the flexible region is in the shape of a flat surface. Note that, here, the “content” is a collective term of the liquid composition contained in the liquid containing pouch  110  and gas (the air) sealed inside the liquid containing pouch  110 . 
     The liquid composition contained in the liquid containing pouch  110  is not particularly limited, and for example, a liquid composition for spinning that is used in the electrostatic spinning device is exemplified. In addition, for example, a solution in which a high-molecular compound that is capable of forming a fiber is dissolved in a solvent can be used as the liquid composition. Both of a water-soluble high-molecular compound and a water-insoluble high-molecular compound can be used as the high-molecular compound. 
     In the case of using the water-insoluble high-molecular compound, the liquid composition contains greater than or equal to 50 mass % of a volatile solution selected from alcohol and ketone. The volatile solution is a substance having volatility in a liquid state. A vapor pressure of the volatile solution at 20° C. is preferably greater than or equal to 0.01 kPa and less than or equal to 106.66 kPa, is more preferably greater than or equal to 0.13 kPa and less than or equal to 66.66 kPa, is even more preferably greater than or equal to 0.67 kPa and less than or equal to 40.00 kPa, and is still even more preferably greater than or equal to 1.33 kPa and less than or equal to 40.00 kPa. 
     Among the volatile solutions, for example, monovalent chain aliphatic alcohol, monovalent cyclic aliphatic alcohol, and monovalent aromatic alcohol are preferably used as the alcohol. Examples of the monovalent chain aliphatic alcohol include C 1 -C 6  alcohol, examples of the monovalent cyclic alcohol include C 4 -C 6  cyclic alcohol, and examples of the monovalent aromatic alcohol include benzyl alcohol, and phenyl ethyl alcohol. Specific examples thereof include ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, butyl alcohol, phenyl ethyl alcohol, n-propanol, and n-pentanol. One type or two or more types selected from such alcohols can be used. 
     Among the volatile solutions, examples of the ketone include C 1 -C 4  alkyl ketone such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, and methyl isobutyl ketone. Only one type of such ketones can be used or two or more types thereof can be used by being combined. 
     The volatile solution is more preferably one type or two or more types selected from ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, and butyl alcohol, is even more preferably one type or two or more types selected from ethanol and butyl alcohol, and is still even more preferably a volatile solution containing ethanol from the viewpoint of improving the touch of a fiber to be formed. 
     The content of the volatile solution in the liquid composition is preferably greater than or equal to 50 mass %, is more preferably greater than or equal to 55 mass %, and is even more preferably greater than or equal to 60 mass %. In addition, the content of the volatile solution in the liquid composition is preferably less than or equal to 95 mass %, is more preferably less than or equal to 94 mass %, and is even more preferably less than or equal to 93 mass %. The content of the volatile solution in the liquid composition is preferably greater than or equal to 50 mass % and less than or equal to 95 mass %, is more preferably greater than or equal to 55 mass % and less than or equal to 94 mass %, and is even more preferably greater than or equal to 60 mass % and less than or equal to 93 mass %. By containing the volatile solution in the liquid composition at such a ratio, the liquid composition can be sufficiently volatilized at the time of performing the electrostatic spray method, and a film containing a fiber on the surface of the skin or the nail can be formed. 
     In addition, the ethanol is preferably greater than or equal to 50 mass %, is more preferably greater than or equal to 65 mass %, and is even more preferably greater than or equal to 80 mass %, with respect to the total amount of the volatile solution, from the viewpoint of high volatility and the touch of the fiber to be formed. In addition, the ethanol is preferably less than or equal to 100 mass %. The ethanol is preferably greater than or equal to 50 mass % and less than or equal to 100 mass %, is more preferably greater than or equal to 65 mass % and less than or equal to 100 mass %, and is even more preferably greater than or equal to 80 mass % and less than or equal to 100 mass %, with respect to the total amount of the volatile solution. 
     In addition, it is preferable that the liquid composition contains the water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber. The water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber is a substance that can be dissolved in the volatile solution. Here, being dissolved indicate that the water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber is in a dispersed state at 20° C. and the dispersed state is a visually homogeneous state, preferably, a visually transparent or semi-transparent state. 
     The water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber is a polymer that is soluble in the volatile substance and is insoluble in water. Herein, a “water-soluble polymer” indicates a water-soluble polymer having properties in which 1 g of the polymer is weighed, and then, is dipped in 10 g of ion exchange water, and greater than or equal to 0.5 g of the dipped polymer is dissolved in water after 24 hours elapse, in an environment of one atmosphere and 23° C. On the other hand, herein, the “water-insoluble polymer” indicates a water-insoluble polymer having properties in which 1 g of the polymer is weighed, and then, is dipped in 10 g of ion exchange water, and greater than or equal to 0.5 g of the dipped polymer is not dissolved after 24 hours elapse, in other words, a dissolution amount is less than 0.5 g, in an environment of one atmosphere and 23° C. 
     Examples of the polymer that is insoluble in water and has fiber forming ability include completely saponified polyvinyl alcohol that can be subjected to an insoluble treatment after forming a film, partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol that can be subjected to a cross-linking treatment after forming a film by being used together with a cross-linking agent, oxazoline modified silicone such as a poly(N-propanoyl ethylene imine) graft-dimethyl siloxane/γ-aminopropyl methyl siloxane copolymer, polyvinyl acetal diethyl aminoacetate, zein (a main component of corn protein), polyester, a polylactic acid (PLA), an acrylic resin such as a polyacrylonitrile resin and a polymethacrylate resin, a polystyrene resin, a polyvinyl butyral resin, a polyethylene terephthalate resin, a polybutylene terephthalate resin, a polyurethane resin, a polyamide resin, a polyimide resin, and a polyamide imide resin. One type or two or more types selected from such water-insoluble polymers can be used by being combined. Among such water-insoluble polymers, it is preferable to use one type or two or more types selected from the completely saponified polyvinyl alcohol that can be subjected to the insoluble treatment after forming the film, the partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol that can be subjected to the cross-linking treatment after forming the film by being used together with the cross-linking agent, the polyvinyl butyral resin, the polyurethane resin, the acrylic resin such as the polymethacrylate resin, the polyvinyl acetal diethyl aminoacetate, the oxazoline modified silicone such as the poly(N-propanoyl ethylene imine) graft-dimethyl siloxane/γ-aminopropyl methyl siloxane copolymer, the polylactic acid (PLA), and zein. Among such water-insoluble polymers, the partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol, the completely saponified polyvinyl alcohol, the polyvinyl butyral resin, the polymethacrylate resin, and the polyurethane resin are more preferable, and the partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol, the completely saponified polyvinyl alcohol, and the polyvinyl butyral resin are even more preferable, from the viewpoint of dispersibility with respect to an alcohol solvent, the touch of the fiber, and the like, and the polyvinyl butyral resin is especially preferable from the viewpoint of being capable of stably and efficiently forming the film containing the fiber on the surface of the skin or the nail and from the viewpoint of the durability of the film, film forming properties, and compatibility between following properties with respect to the skin and the durability. 
     The content of the water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber in the liquid composition is preferably greater than or equal to 1 mass %, is more preferably greater than or equal to 3 mass %, and is even more preferably greater than or equal to 5 mass %. In addition, content of the water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber in the liquid composition is preferably less than or equal to 30 mass %, is more preferably less than or equal to 25 mass %, and is even more preferably less than or equal to 20 mass %. The content of the water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber in the liquid composition is preferably greater than or equal to 1 mass % and less than or equal to 30 mass %, is more preferably greater than or equal to 3 mass % and less than or equal to 25 mass %, and is even more preferably greater than or equal to 5 mass % and less than or equal to 20 mass %. By containing the water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber in the liquid composition at such a ratio, a fibrous film can be stably and efficiently formed. 
     In addition, it is preferable that the liquid composition contains water. The water is ionized and charged compared to a solvent such as ethanol that is not ionized, and thus, is capable of imparting conductivity to the liquid composition. For this reason, a fibrous film is stably formed on the surface of the skin or the nail by electrostatic spray. In addition, the water contributes to the improvement of the adhesiveness of a film to be formed by the electrostatic spray with respect to the skin or the nail, the improvement of durability, and the appearance. The content of the water in the liquid composition is preferably greater than or equal to 0.2 mass % and less than or equal to 25 mass %, and is more preferably greater than or equal to 0.3 mass % and less than or equal to 20 mass %, from the viewpoint of obtaining such function effects, and is even more preferably greater than or equal to 0.4 mass % and less than or equal to 10 mass %, from the viewpoint of the forming properties of the fibrous film even in a humid environment. 
     The liquid composition may further contain other components. Examples of the other components include polyol, liquid oil, a plasticizer of the water-insoluble polymer for forming a fiber, an electroconductivity control agent of the liquid composition, a water-soluble polymer, a powder such as a coloring pigment and an extender pigment, a colorant, a perfume, a repellent, an oxidant inhibitor, a stabilizer, an antiseptic agent, and various vitamins. In a case where the other components are contained in the liquid composition, a content ratio of the other components is preferably greater than or equal to 0.1 mass % and is less than or equal to 30 mass %, and is more preferably greater than or equal to 0.5 mass % and less than or equal to 20 mass %. 
     Further, glycol can be contained in the liquid composition. Examples of the glycol include ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, and polypropylene glycol. From the viewpoint of sufficiently volatilizing the volatile solution at the time of performing the electrostatic spray method, from the viewpoint of fiber forming properties, and from the viewpoint of the touch of the fiber to be formed, the content of the glycol in the liquid composition is preferably less than or equal to 10 mass %, is more preferably less than or equal to 3 mass %, and is even more preferably less than or equal to 1 mass %, and it is preferable that the glycol is not substantially contained. 
     The viscosity of the liquid composition at 25° C. is preferably greater than or equal to 2 mPa·s and less than or equal to 3000 mPa·s, is more preferably greater than or equal to 10 mPa·s and less than or equal to 1500 mPa·s, is even more preferably greater than or equal to 15 mPa·s and less than or equal to 1000 mPa·s, and is still even more preferably greater than or equal to 15 mPa·s and less than or equal to 800 mPa·s, from the viewpoint of stably forming the fibrous film, from the viewpoint of spinning properties at the time of performing the electrostatic spray, from the viewpoint of improving the durability of the film, and from the viewpoint of improving the touch of the film. The viscosity of the liquid composition is measured at 25° C. by using an E-type viscosimeter. For example, an E-type viscosimeter (VISCONICEMD) manufactured by TOKYO KEIKI INC. can be used as the E-type viscosimeter. As a measurement condition of such a case, 25° C. is set, a cone-plate rotor No. 43 is used, a suitable number of rotations according to the viscosity is selected as the number of rotations, and the number of rotations is 5 rpm in a case where the viscosity is greater than or equal to 500 mPa·S, is 10 rpm in a case where the viscosity is greater than or equal to 150 mPa·S and less than 500 mPa·S, and is 20 rpm in a case where the viscosity is less than 150 mPa·S. 
     The spray unit  120  includes a mounting body  121 , a connection body  122 , and the nozzle  123 , and in this embodiment, the spray unit  120  is formed of a resin. 
     The mounting body  121  includes a flow path and a pump (for example, a gear pump) inside. The flow path is a passage that circulates the liquid composition. The pump is disposed in the middle of the flow path, and is driven to suck the liquid composition to be circulated in the flow path. The details of the flow path or the pump will be described below. 
     The connection body  122  is mechanically connected to the liquid containing pouch  110  and is communicated with the inside of the liquid containing pouch  110 , and guides the liquid composition in the liquid containing pouch  110  to the flow path of the mounting body  121 . The nozzle  123  is integrally formed with the mounting body  121 , and has a spray hole  123   a  on the tip and has a nozzle flow path that connects the spray hole  123   a  and the flow path of the mounting body  121 . The details will be described below, but the electrically charged liquid composition passes through the nozzle flow path formed in the nozzle  123 , and then, is sprayed from the spray hole  123   a.    
     [Internal Configuration of Mounting Body of Spray Unit] 
     The internal configuration of the mounting body  121  of the spray unit  120  will be described with reference to  FIGS. 3A (a) and  3 A(b) and  FIGS. 3B (a) and  3 B(b).  FIGS. 3A (a) and  3 A(b) illustrate the inner surface of one member  121   a  when the mounting body  121  is exploded, and the connection body  122  is disposed on the outer surface side of the member  121   a  (the surface on the lower side of  FIG. 3A (a)).  FIGS. 3B (a) and  3 B(b) illustrate the inner surface of the other member  121   b  when the mounting body  121  is exploded, and the nozzle  123  is disposed on the outer surface side of the member  121   b  (the surface on the lower side of  FIG. 3B (a)). 
     The member  121   a  and the member  121   b  are formed of an insulating resin. Then, the inner surface side of the member  121   a  and the inner surface side of the member  121   b  are closely joined, and thus, an outer shell housing of the mounting body  121  is configured. 
     As illustrated in  FIGS. 3A (a) and  3 A(b), a flow path forming plate (a flow path forming member)  131  is provided on the inner surface of one member  121   a.  A flow path groove  132  is formed in the flow path forming plate  131 . An inflow end  132   a  of the flow path groove  132  is connected to the liquid containing pouch  110  through the connection body  122 . An ejection end  132   b  of the flow path groove  132  is a portion that is connected to a hole  134   a  of the other member  121   b  (refer to  FIGS. 3B (a) and  3 B(b)). The gear pump  133  including gears  133   a  and  133   b  is disposed in the middle of the flow path groove  132 . 
     As illustrated in  FIGS. 3B (a) and  3 B(b), a sealing plate (a flow path forming member)  134  is provided on the inner surface of the other member  121   b.  In the sealing plate  134 , a hole  134   a  that leads to the nozzle  123  is formed in a position corresponding to the ejection end  132   b  of the flow path forming plate  131 . In a case where the inner surface side of the member  121   a  and the inner surface side of the member  121   b  are closely joined, the sealing plate  134  is closely attached to the flow path forming plate  131  and seals the flow path groove  132 . Accordingly, a flow path along the flow path groove  132  is formed. For this reason, the liquid composition flowing from the inflow end  132   a  is capable of reaching the ejection end  132   b  by being circulated in the flow path (the flow path groove  132 ), and is capable of flowing in the nozzle  123  through the hole  134   a.    
     The flow path forming plate  131 , the gear pump  133 , and the sealing plate  134  contain a material having resistance to the liquid composition contained in the liquid containing pouch  110 . On the other hand, in the electrostatic spray device  10  according to this embodiment, as described below, the liquid composition is electrostatically charged by applying a voltage to the liquid containing pouch  110  without applying a voltage to the spray unit  120  of the cartridge  100 . For this reason, it is not necessary to add a functional agent that imparts conductivity, such as carbon, to a resin material configuring the spray unit  120  (in particular, a resin material configuring the flow path forming plate  131 , the gear pump  133 , and the sealing plate  134 ). That is, the spray unit  120  can be formed of an insulating resin (a so-called carbonless resin). Note that, the “insulating resin” indicates a general resin that does not contain a conductive material such as a metal or carbon, has high electric resistance, and hardly allows electricity to flow, and for example, indicates a resin having volume resistivity of greater than or equal to 10 12  Ωm. 
     In this embodiment, the flow path forming plate  131 , the gear pump  133 , and the sealing plate  134  are formed of a single insulating resin having solvent resistance with respect to a solvent such as ethanol, such as a polypropylene (PP) resin, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a polyethylene (PE) resin, and a polyacetal (POM) resin. 
     The flow path forming plate  131 , the gear pump  133 , and the sealing plate  134  are formed of such a single insulating resin having solvent resistance, and thus, the flow path forming plate  131 , the gear pump  133 , and the sealing plate  134  are rarely swollen or deformed even in contact with the solvent such as ethanol. For this reason, in the case of using a liquid composition in which ethanol is adopted as the solvent, for example, a liquid composition in which a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) resin is dissolved in ethanol, excellent operability of the device including the gear pump  133  can be ensured. In addition, the manufacturing cost can be decreased, compared to the case of using a conductive resin (for example, a resin containing carbon). 
     Note that, in this embodiment, the insulating resin (a so-called carbonless resin) is used in the flow path forming plate  131 , but the present invention is not limited thereto, and a conductive resin (for example, a resin containing carbon) can also be adopted. Note that, the “conductive resin” indicates a resin that contains a conductive material such as a metal or carbon, has low electric resistance, and easily allows electricity to flow, and for example, indicates a resin having volume resistivity of less than or equal to 10 −2  Ωm. In such a case, for example, a technology can be adopted in which the liquid composition flowing in the flow path (the flow path groove  132 ) is electrically charged in the mounting body  121 . In addition, in this case, a voltage is applied to the liquid containing pouch  110  and the flow path forming plate  131  to have the same potential, and thus, the potential is homogenized, and a voltage can be more sufficiently and stably applied to the liquid composition. Note that, as the configuration in which the liquid containing pouch  110  and the flow path forming plate  131  have the same potential, for example, a configuration is exemplified in which the liquid containing pouch  110  and the flow path forming plate  131  are electrically connected, and a high voltage is applied to the flow path forming plate  131  through the liquid containing pouch  110 , but the present invention is not limited thereto. 
     [External Configuration of Housing] 
     The housing  210  illustrated in  FIG. 1A ,  FIG. 1B , and  FIG. 2  has a shape and a size that the user is capable of holding with a hand. Specifically, the housing  210  has a flat shape, that is, a shape of which the cross-section orthogonal to a nozzle axis (an axis along a direction in which the liquid composition is sprayed from the nozzle  123 ) has a long axis and a short axis. In addition, the length of the housing  210  in a direction along the nozzle axis, for example, is greater than or equal to 3 cm and less than or equal to 11 cm. In the housing  210 , a containing space  220  that is capable of containing the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  (refer to  FIG. 2 ) is formed, and an electric-charging structure for electrostatically charging the liquid composition, a driving unit for driving the pump provided in the mounting body  121 , or the like is disposed. The details of the electric-charging structure, the driving unit, or the like will be described below. 
     Note that, herein, in the surfaces of the housing  210 , the surface on which the cover  250  is mounted will be referred to as the “attachable and detachable surface  222 ”. In addition, in the attachable and detachable surface  222 , an outer circumferential edge portion that is in contact with the abutting edge portion  252  of the cover  250  will be referred to as a “circumferential edge  221 ”. Hereinafter, the structure of the attachable and detachable surface  222  will be described with reference to  FIG. 2 . 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 2 , the attachable and detachable surface  222  is approximately an elliptical surface that is surrounded by the circumferential edge  221  in an elliptical shape. An insertion hole  223  is formed in the attachable and detachable surface  222  in a state of being approximately parallel to a long axis of the ellipse. The insertion hole  223  is communicated with the containing space  220  in the housing  210 , and has a shape and a size in which the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  can be inserted and removed in the containing space  220  through the insertion hole  223 . In this embodiment, the insertion hole  223  and the containing space  220  are formed in a position closer to one portion of the circumferential edge  221  but not in the central position of the ellipse, and thus, a large space for containing the electric-charging structure, the driving unit, or the like can be ensured on the other portion side of the circumferential edge  221 . 
     In the attachable and detachable surface  222 , a first engaging step  224  along the circumferential edge  221  is formed, and a second engaging step  225  is formed on the inner circumference side of the first engaging step  224 . An opening edge portion  11   a  (refer to  FIG. 1B ) is fitted into the first engaging step  224 , and thus, the cap  11  is mounted to be attachable and detachable with respect to the housing  210 . The abutting edge portion  252  (refer to  FIG. 2 ) that is a portion along one opening  251  is fitted into the second engaging step  225 , and thus, the cover  250  is mounted to be attachable and detachable with respect to a portion along the circumferential edge  221  of the housing  210 . 
     A mounting recess  226  is formed on the attachable and detachable surface  222 . The mounting recess  226  is in a shape in which the mounting body  121  is retained in a positioned state when the mounting body  121  of the cartridge  100  is fitted into the mounting recess  226 . For this reason, in a case where the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  is inserted to the containing space  220  through the insertion hole  223 , and the mounting body  121  is closely fitted into the mounting recess  226  such that the position is retained, the cartridge  100  is mounted accurately in the designated position of the housing  210 . 
     An antistatic wall  230  is erected on the attachable and detachable surface  222 . In this embodiment, the antistatic wall  230  is formed of a resin that is an insulating material integrally with the housing  210 . Note that, the details of a disposition position, the structure, or the like of the antistatic wall  230  will be described below. 
     [Internal Configuration and Operation of Housing] 
     The electric-charging structure, the driving unit, or the like that is provided in the housing  210  will be described with reference to  FIG. 4 . A main power source manipulation unit  241  and an operation manipulation unit  242  are attached to the housing  210  in a state where the main power source manipulation unit  241  and the operation manipulation unit  242  can be manipulated from the outside of the housing  210 . A power source unit  243 , a high-voltage generating unit  244 , a contact portion  245 , a biasing portion  246 , and a driving unit  247  are provided inside the housing  210 . Note that, the field electrode covering the entire liquid containing pouch (liquid containing portion) in which the liquid composition is contained is not disposed. 
     The contact portion  245  has conductivity that is capable of conveying a high voltage from the high-voltage generating unit  244  to a contact target, and when the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  is contained in the designated position of the containing space  220  of the housing  210 , the tip surface of the contact portion  245  is disposed in a position in contact with the liquid containing pouch  110 . That is, the contact portion  245  is configured such that the contact portion  245  is in contact with a portion having conductivity of the liquid containing pouch  110  contained in the electrostatic spray main body  200 , and thus, the high voltage from the high-voltage generating unit  244  can be applied to the liquid in the liquid containing pouch  110  through the portion having conductivity. Note that, even in a case where the outer layer and the inner layer of the liquid containing pouch  110  are formed of a non-conductive material, insofar as the thickness of the outer layer and the inner layer is thin, and thus, it is possible to conduct electricity to the conductive layer that is an intermediate layer through the outer layer and to the liquid composition through the inner layer, the outer layer, the conductive layer, and the inner layer can be collectively evaluated as the “portion having conductivity of the liquid containing pouch  110 ”. 
     It is preferable that the contact portion  245  is disposed in a position in contact with the circumferential edge portion but not the flexible region of the liquid containing pouch  110  (the central wide surface portion), from the viewpoint of suppressing liquid leakage due to a pressure on the flexible region (central wide surface portion). In addition, the present invention is not limited thereto, and when the cartridge  100  is mounted on the housing  210 , the contact portion  245  may be disposed in a position in contact with the flexible region (the central wide surface portion), from the viewpoint of preventing a contact failure due to the deformation of the circumferential edge portion of the liquid containing pouch  110 . In the contact portion  245 , an arbitrary shape can be adopted, and it is preferable that the contact portion  245  is formed of a columnar conductive material having a tapered surface that is inclined along an insertion direction of the liquid containing pouch  110 , for example, having a rounded tip surface. 
     It is preferable that a contact area of the contact portion  245  with respect to the liquid containing pouch  110  is greater than or equal to 2 mm 2 , from the viewpoint of preventing the break or the like of the liquid containing pouch  110  by reliable contact. 
     The biasing portion  246  includes a biasing member  246   a  biasing the contact portion  245  against the containing space  220  side of the housing  210  and includes a guide structure  246   b  allowing and guiding a back-and-forth movement operation of the contact portion  245 . The biasing portion  246 , for example, is formed of an elastic member such as a coil spring. 
     The contact portion  245  is biased to the containing space  220  side, that is, in a direction of being pressed against the liquid containing pouch  110  contained in the containing space  220  by a small force at which the liquid composition in the liquid containing pouch  110  is not leaked through the nozzle  123 , by the biasing portion  246 . For this reason, the contact portion  245  performs the following movement operation, in accordance with the state of the liquid containing pouch  110 . 
     (1) When the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  is inserted to the containing space  220  through the insertion hole  223  of the housing  210 . At this time, the contact portion  245  is pressed in a direction opposite to a biasing direction by the liquid containing pouch  110  that is inserted, and thus, performs the back movement while retaining the contact with respect to the liquid containing pouch  110 . 
     (2) When the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  is contained in the designated position of the containing space  220  of the housing  210 . At this time, the contact portion  245  is in contact with the circumferential edge portion or the flexible region (the central wide surface portion) of the liquid containing pouch  110 . 
     (3) When the swelling amount is gradually reduced from a state of being swollen to the outside as the liquid composition is used as the liquid composition is used, and thus, the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  is in the shape of a flat surface in a case where the contact portion  245  is in contact with the flexible region (the central wide surface portion) of the liquid containing pouch  110 . At this time, the contact portion  245  performs the forth movement in the biasing direction, in accordance with the deformation of the liquid containing pouch  110 , and retains the contact with respect to the liquid containing pouch  110 . 
     An operation that is performed by manipulating the main power source manipulation unit  241  and the operation manipulation unit  242  will be described. As the premise of the operation, the following states of (a), (b), and (c) are assumed. Note that, in general use, the state of (c) is set, but even in a case where the state of (c) is not set, the operation based on the manipulation of the main power source manipulation unit  241  and the operation manipulation unit  242  can be performed. 
     (a) The liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  is contained in the containing space  220  through the insertion hole  223 , and the cartridge  100  is mounted accurately in the designated position of the housing  210 . 
     (b) According to (a) described above, the contact portion  245  is in contact with the conductive liquid containing pouch  110 . 
     (c) The cover  250  is mounted on the housing  210  (refer to  FIG. 1B ). 
     In a case where the state of (a) described above is set, the driving unit  247  is mechanically connected to the gear  133   a  of the gear pump  133  provided in the mounting body  121  of the cartridge  100 . In addition, in a case where the state of (b) described above is set, the high-voltage generating unit  244  and the liquid containing pouch  110  can be electrically connected through the contact portion  245 . 
     In a case where the main power source manipulation unit  241  is turned off (OFF), the power is not supplied to the high-voltage generating unit  244  or the driving unit  247  from the power source unit  243 . For this reason, a high voltage is not generated from the high-voltage generating unit  244 , and the driving unit  247  is not driven. Therefore, in a case where the main power source manipulation unit  241  is turned OFF, the liquid composition contained in the liquid containing pouch  110  is not electrostatically charged and the liquid composition is not sprayed even when the user mistakenly manipulates the operation manipulation unit  242 . 
     The operation manipulation unit  242 , for example, includes a switch that is capable of switching an on (ON) state and an off (OFF) state. 
     In a case where the operation manipulation unit  242  is turned ON when the main power source manipulation unit  241  is in the ON state, the power is supplied to the high-voltage generating unit  244  and the driving unit  247  from the power source unit  243 . Then, the driving unit  247  is driven, a rotative force is generated, the rotative force is transferred to the gear  133   a  of the gear pump  133  provided in the mounting body  121  of the cartridge  100 , and the gear pump  133  is driven. The liquid composition in the liquid containing pouch  110  is sucked to the spray unit  120  side by the driving of the gear pump  133 . In addition, the high-voltage generating unit  244  generates a positive high voltage (for example, several kV to several dozen kV), and sends the generated high voltage to the contact portion  245 . The high voltage is applied to the conductive liquid containing pouch  110  that is in contact with the contact portion  245  through the contact portion  245 , and thus, the liquid composition contained in the liquid containing pouch  110  is electrostatically charged. 
     That is, the conductive liquid containing pouch  110  has not only a function of containing the liquid composition but also a function as an electrode for electrostatically charging the liquid composition. However, the liquid containing pouch  110  is large enough to contain the liquid composition and is directly in contact with the liquid composition, and thus, is capable of effectively and electrostatically charging the liquid composition. As described above, the liquid composition is electrostatically charged by using the conductive liquid containing pouch  110 , and thus, a large electrode is not necessary, the housing  210  can be downsized, and the electrostatic spray device  10  can be downsized. 
     In a case where the liquid composition that is electrostatically charged as described above flows in the spray unit  120  from the liquid containing pouch  110  and reaches the spray hole  123   a  of the nozzle  123 , the liquid composition is sprayed toward the target by the electrostatic force based on the potential difference between the electrically charged liquid composition and the target. After that, in a case where the operation manipulation unit  242  is turned OFF, the spray of the liquid composition is stopped. 
     In the housing  210 , a selector switch (not illustrated) that is capable of adjusting a spray amount of the liquid composition in a multistage (for example, three stages of large/medium/small) may be provided, in addition to the main power source manipulation unit  241  and the operation manipulation unit  242 . 
     In the example described above, the operation manipulation unit  242  is a switch for selecting only two states of ON/OFF, but is not limited thereto, and for example, may be a switch that is turned on (ON) by being pressed, is returned to off (OFF) by stopping the pressing, and is capable of changing a pressing amount in the ON state. In a case where the operation manipulation unit  242  is the switch that is capable of changing the pressing amount in the ON state, the spray amount of the liquid composition to be sprayed from the nozzle  123  can be adjusted in accordance with a change in the pressing amount. That is, in a case where the pressing amount of the operation manipulation unit  242  is increased, the power to be supplied to the driving unit  247  from the power source unit  243  increases, and the number of rotations of the driving unit  247  increases. Then, the number of rotations of the gear pump  133  provided in the mounting body  121  increases, the amount of liquid composition that is sucked to (flows in) the spray unit  120  side from the liquid containing pouch  110  increases, and the spray amount of the liquid composition to be sprayed also increases. On the other hand, in a case where the pressing amount of the operation manipulation unit  242  decreases, the voltage to be supplied from the power source unit  243  to the driving unit  247  decreases, and the number of rotations of the driving unit  247  decreases. Then, the number of rotations of the gear pump  133  provided in the mounting body  121  decreases, the amount of liquid composition that is sucked to (flows in) the spray unit  120  side from the liquid containing pouch  110  decreases, and the spray amount of the liquid composition to be sprayed also decreases. 
     In the embodiment described above, the contact portion  245  formed of the columnar conductive material having the rounded tip surface is adopted, but a plate spring-shaped contact portion can also be adopted. In this case, the plate spring-shaped contact portion may be disposed such that the plate spring-shaped contact portion is in contact with the circumferential edge portion of the liquid containing pouch  110  (a portion in which two thin-layer aluminum films are joined), that is, a portion of the liquid containing pouch  110  that is rarely deformed regardless of a containing amount of the liquid composition. The plate spring-shaped contact portion is biased to the liquid containing pouch  110  side by the own spring force, and thus, an excellent contact state can be retained, and a separate member for biasing is not necessary, and thus, a device configuration can be simplified. 
     In addition, in the embodiment described above, the liquid containing pouch  110  has conductivity over the entire surface, but a liquid containing pouch can also be adopted in which at least a portion in contact with the contact portion  245  has conductivity. For example, a configuration may be set in which only one surface of the liquid containing pouch  110  may have conductivity, in this case, a configuration may be set in which the entire other surface or a part thereof may have transparency such that the inside is visible. According to such a configuration in which the inside is visible, the residual amount of the liquid composition in the liquid containing pouch  110  can be visually checked. 
     Further, in the embodiment described above, the liquid containing pouch  110  is formed of the thin-layer aluminum film and has conductivity, but even in a case where the liquid containing pouch  110  is formed of the other conductive material, the present invention can be applied. In addition, a hard case container using a hard and conductive resin may be adopted instead of the liquid containing pouch  110 . Further, a cylindrical liquid containing portion having conductivity can also be adopted instead of the liquid containing pouch  110 . In the cylindrical liquid containing portion, the liquid composition is extruded from the liquid containing portion, and thus, the gear pump  133  may not be used. 
     [Configuration and Function of Antistatic Wall] 
     The antistatic wall  230  will be described with reference to  FIG. 2 . The antistatic wall  230  is formed of an insulating resin integrally with the housing  210 , and is erected on the attachable and detachable surface  222  of the housing  210 . The antistatic wall  230  is disposed in a position between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  on the attachable and detachable surface  222 , and extends along the circumferential edge  221 . More specifically, the antistatic wall  230  is disposed in a position between the insertion hole  223  and a portion of the circumferential edge  221  close to the insertion hole  223 . In this embodiment, the antistatic wall  230  is disposed exactly in a position in which the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  are separated from each other. 
     Here, the height of the antistatic wall  230  will be described. In this description, in the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100 , a portion close to the spray unit  120  will be referred to as a shoulder portion  111  (refer to  FIG. 2 ). In addition, the “height” indicates a dimension in a direction toward the cover  250  side from the housing  210  side (the attachable and detachable surface  222  side), in a state where the cover  250  is mounted on the housing  210 . 
     In a state where the liquid containing pouch  110  of the cartridge  100  is contained in the containing space  220 , and the cartridge  100  is mounted accurately in the designated position of the housing  210 , the height of the antistatic wall  230  is higher than that of the shoulder portion  111  of the liquid containing pouch  110 . The limit of the height of the antistatic wall  230  is a height at which the antistatic wall  230  is not in contact with the cover  250 , in a state where the cover  250  is mounted on the housing  210 . 
     A groove  231  extending along the circumferential edge  221  is formed in the tip surface of the antistatic wall  230 . In this embodiment, two grooves  231  are linearly disposed in line. 
     As described above, the antistatic wall  230  is provided in the position between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221 , and thus, an insulating distance (a creeping distance) between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  (in particular, the portion of the circumferential edge  221  close to the insertion hole  223 ) increases by the existence of the antistatic wall  230 . That is, the insulating distance between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  increases by a rising distance and a falling distance of the antistatic wall  230  (a distance twice the height of the antistatic wall  230 ), a distance for the thickness of the antistatic wall  230 , and the insulating distance approximately corresponding to the falling distance and the rising distance of the groove  231  (a distance twice the depth of the groove  231 ). 
     When the electrostatic spray device  10  is used by mounting the cartridge  100  on the housing  210  and by mounting the cover  250  on the housing  210 , the liquid containing pouch  110  having a high potential due to the high voltage that is applied from the contact portion  245  or the electrically charged liquid composition exists in the vicinity of the insertion hole  223 . At this time, even in a case where a minute gap exists between the abutting edge portion  252  of the cover  250  and the second engaging step  225  of the housing  210 , that is, in the boundary portion (the parting line portion) between the cover  250  and the housing  210 , the insulating distance between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  is long, and thus, the electricity of the high voltage can be prevented from being leaked to the outside through the gap. 
     Further, the height of the antistatic wall  230  is higher than that of the shoulder portion  111  of the liquid containing pouch  110 , and the electricity of the high voltage can be reliably prevented from being leaked to the outside through the gap. That is, a phenomenon in which the electricity of the high voltage is leaked to the outside from the liquid containing pouch  110  having a high potential or the electrically charged liquid composition through the gap, that is, a discharge phenomenon includes creeping discharge in which discharge proceeds along the surface of an insulator and space discharge in which discharge proceeds over the space. At this time, the height of the antistatic wall  230  is higher than that of the shoulder portion  111  of the liquid containing pouch  110 , and thus, the space discharge can be reliably prevented. It is obvious that the creeping discharge can also be prevented by an increase in the height of the antistatic wall  230 . 
     Eventually, the antistatic wall  230  is erected in the position between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221 , and thus, excellent discharge prevention performance can be ensured. 
     As described above, the electricity of the high voltage is not leaked to the outside from the liquid containing pouch  110  having a high potential due to the applied high voltage, or the like, and thus, the user is capable of comfortably using the electrostatic spray device  10  without feeling electric stimulation. 
     Further, a case in which the entire electrostatic spray device  10  is in a flat shape, as with this embodiment, from the viewpoint of improving the design will be described. In this case, the attachable and detachable surface  222  is an elliptical surface of which the flatness is emphasized, and as a result thereof, a configuration is set in which the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  are close to each other (refer to  FIG. 2 ). Even at this time, the antistatic wall  230  is disposed in the position between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221 , and thus, the electricity of the high voltage can be prevented from being leaked to the outside. In other words, the antistatic wall  230  is provided, and thus, the entire electrostatic spray device  10  can be in the flat shape, and the design properties can be improved. 
     Note that, in this embodiment, the groove  231  is formed in the tip surface of the antistatic wall  230 , but a groove extending along the circumferential edge  221  may be formed in a rising surface of the antistatic wall  230  (a surface on the insertion hole  223  side) or a falling surface (a surface on the circumferential edge  221  side). Further, a convex portion extending along the circumferential edge  221  is formed in the antistatic wall  230 , instead of the groove  231  or together with the groove  231 , and thus, the insulating distance between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  can be increased. 
     The groove  231  or the convex portion is provided, and the insulating distance between the insertion hole  223  and the circumferential edge  221  is increased, and thus, the discharge prevention performance can be further improved, and a compact configuration can be obtained by decreasing the height of the antistatic wall  230  while ensuring the discharge prevention performance. Note that, a configuration can be set in which the groove  231  or the convex portion is not provided in the antistatic wall  230 . 
     As described above, the preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described as an example, but the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the scope described in the above embodiment.
