Abstract
The present invention provides a foam dispensing unit () that dispenses a content liquid in a foamed state by causing the content liquid pumped out via a liquid flow channel () to pass through a porous member () provided in a foaming flow channel () together with air, the foam dispensing unit including a mechanism for variably positioning a passage surface (), the mechanism rotatably holding the porous member () in the foaming flow channel () to variably position a content liquid passage surface of the porous member (). The mechanism for variably positioning a passage surface () includes a loosely holding region () formed in the foaming flow channel () and the porous member () loosely mounted in the loosely holding region (). The porous member () has a spherical shape, and freely rotates inside the loosely holding region () due to an action of a stream of the content liquid passing through the loosely holding region (), so as to replace a surface thereof in a pass-through direction.
