That is, the fixing flange 2 of the main body 1 is passed over crosspieces or batten members located on both sides of the main body 1, and screws, nails, etc. are inserted into the notches 21,
Further, the main body 1 is fixed by screwing or driving into the crosspiece or batten member.

Note that the portion through which screws, nails, etc. are inserted may be holes instead of the notches 21. As in the previous example,
If the notch 21 structure is used, after fixing the main body 1 to the crosspiece or batten member, loosen the screws and nails a little, and the main body 1 will have the notches 21 left and right, and further up and down.
By providing this, it is possible to adjust the position of the main body 1 up and down.

Furthermore, the shape of the fixing flange 2 is not limited to that of the embodiment described above.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the fixing flange 2 is integrally molded with the main body 1, but in the present invention, the fixing flange 2 is constructed separately from the main body 1, and is attached to the conventional main body 1. It may be.

Now, regarding the above-described embodiment, a construction example will be described in which a fluid pot is attached to a wall 40, such as a wooden partition, in which a crosspiece is provided inside the wall 40.

First, the main body 1 is brought to a predetermined position where the fluid pot is attached. If the main body 1 can be fixed to the crosspiece after being brought to a predetermined position, it can be fixed directly to the crosspiece, and if the distance between the crosspieces is wide and the fixing flange 2 of the main body 1 cannot be spanned, the fixing flange 2 of the main body 1 can be fixed as shown in FIG.
