Abstract
A humidifying tank of a CPAP apparatus includes a first passage, a second passage, a flow-dividing section, and a shielding section. An inlet is defined as an opening of the first passage on an inner space side, an outlet is defined as an opening of the second passage on the inner space side, and a vertical axis is defined as a specific axis that intersects a bottom wall. As seen in a direction along the vertical axis, an opening center of the outlet is located so as to be displaced relative to an imaginary axis that passes through an opening center of the inlet and that is parallel to a direction in which the inlet faces.
