Abstract

A food tank is provided with a heat insulation body, and the heat insulation body is provided with an opening of a wide mouth receiving food; a throat member is attached to a lantern ring and the throat portion is screwed in a body of the wide mouth, so the lantern ring can be connected to the opening of the food tank. The throat member comprises a pad ring, used to sealing the throat portion to the body, on a lower end. A cover is attached to the lantern ring and comprises a central protrusion portion; the central protrusion portion extends to the pad ring of the throat member so as to form sealing contact, thereby sealing the cover to the throat member. A button is arranged in a passage of the cover, and is biasedly pressed by an elastic piece so as to move to a connecting position, so the button can be connected with the lantern ring in the opening portion of the lantern ring, thereby fixing the cover to the lantern. In one embodiment, a linear ring is provided for connecting the button.
