Abstract
A self-heating foodstuff container is capable of generating heat by utilizing an exothermic reaction and includes a body having a first chamber for containing a foodstuff and a second chamber for receiving an exothermic reaction agent, and a liquid container including a body portion and a conduit connected to the body portion for discharging the liquid into the second chamber. The body portion is disposed outside of the second chamber and is capable of contracting upon pressure. The container further includes a support member carrying the body portion and slidably mounted with respect to the body in such a manner that the sliding movement of the support member presses the body portion and causes the liquid to discharge through the conduit into the second chamber for initiating the exothermic reaction.
