The upper end of the insertion section 11 is closed. The head section 12 is formed separately from the insertion section 11, and a projection for fitting the head section 12 is provided on the insertion section 11, and the head section 12 is fitted on the projection to insert the head section 12. 11 and the head unit 12 may be connected. Further, the rubber plate 2 is wound around the insertion portion 11 of the cap body 1 and its ends are abutted with each other, and is kept in a tubular shape in such a wound state. Means for keeping the rubber plate 2 in a cylindrical shape include a method of attaching the rubber plate 2 to the insertion portion 11 using an adhesive or a double-sided adhesive tape, or a method of joining the butted surfaces 21 of the rubber plate 2 to each other. There are means and the like, and when the latter means is employed, it becomes possible to hold the rubber plate 2 on the insertion portion 11 by utilizing the elasticity of the rubber plate 2 which is cylindrically shaped. Therefore, in this case, it is not always necessary to attach the rubber plate 2 to the insertion portion 11.

The insertion portion 11 of the cap body 1 has a diameter that allows it to be loosely fitted into the distal end opening 82 of the original rod 81 shown in FIG. In addition, the length D1 from the center of the insertion portion 11 shown in FIG. 2 to the outer surface of the rubber plate 2 kept in a cylindrical shape is shown in FIG.
0 corresponds to the radius of the distal end opening 82 of the original rod 81.

Here, the thick rubber plate 2 is inserted into the insertion portion 11.
The cap D is suitable for use in a main rod 81 having a large-diameter distal end opening 82 because the length D1 becomes longer when the cap D is wound around. Further, when the thin rubber plate 2 is wound around the insertion portion 11, the length D1 is shortened.
It is suitable to be used for the original rod 81 having When the rubber plate 2 wound around the insertion portion 11 of the cap body 1 and the radius of the distal end opening 82 of the original rod 81 are in an appropriate combination, the length D1 is equal to the distal opening 81 of the original rod 81.

In the rubber piece assembly C, the separation grooves 32, 42, 52, 62 can be easily separated by tearing or cutting with scissors or a cutter. Further, the lengths of the individual elongated rubber pieces 31, 41, 51, 61 separated in this manner can be adjusted by easily tearing or cutting with scissors or a cutter at the concave portion 23. . Therefore, the user selects a set to which the elongated rubber piece B having an appropriate thickness belongs, for example, the set 4 from the four sets 3, 4, 5, 6 forming the rubber piece aggregate C, and selects the set. The set 4 is separated from the rubber piece assembly C, and the elongated rubber pieces 41 belonging to the set 4 are individually cut off. The individual elongated rubber pieces 41 obtained in this manner are inserted into the grooves 13 of the groove 13 of the insertion portion 11. Can be attached to the bottom. Thus, the rubber piece aggregate C
If the cap body 1 and the above-described cap body 1 are set as one set, many original rods 81 having different diameters of the distal end openings 82 can be obtained simply by selecting an appropriate set and using individual elongated rubber pieces belonging to the set. Can be attached with the cap A. The elongated rubber pieces 31, 41, 51, 6
If the length 1 is too long compared to the insertion portion 11 of the cap body 1, the elongated rubber piece 31,
41, 51, and 61 may be cut to reduce the length.

Alternatively, the number may be three or five or more. Further, it is not always necessary to attach the elongated rubber pieces B to all of the grooves 13, and the elongated rubber pieces B may be attached to at least two grooves 13. This applies to the case where the elongated rubber piece B is attached to a plurality of circumferential positions on the outer peripheral surface of the insertion portion 11 having no groove portion 13. Alternatively, the groove 13 may be formed as a dovetail groove, and the elongated rubber piece may be inserted into the dovetail groove for mounting. Further, the groove 13 of the insertion portion 11
When the above-mentioned length D2 is slightly too long when the elongated rubber piece B is mounted on the bottom of the groove, the rib portion 22 of the elongated rubber piece B is sliced so that its height is reduced. It is also possible to adjust the length D2.
