[0044] After using the ice pack 10, the ice pack 10 and the lid 30 can be housed again in the cold storage container 20. By rehousing the ice pack 10 and the lid 30 in the cold storage container 20, the cold storage state can be maintained.

[0045] Note that water may be poured into the ice pack 10 and the ice pack 10 may be placed in a freezer to freeze the water. At this time, the lid 30 may be fitted to the ice pack 10 to freeze the water, or the water may be frozen without fitting. Also, since the material of the ice pack main body 11 is a soft resin, even if the volume of water increases due to the freezing expansion of water, breakage of the ice pack 10 can be suppressed.

[0046] [Effect] The ice pack set 1 includes an ice pack 10 that houses water and / or ice, a cold storage container 20 having a heat insulation structure that houses the ice pack 10, a lid 30 that is fitted to the ice pack 10 and the cold storage container 20, and a strap 40 that is attached to the lid 30. The strap 40 has a strap main body portion 41 made of a string body. Since the strap main body portion 41 is a string body, the user can easily grip the strap 40 (especially the strap main body portion 41), and since the ice pack set 1 can be used at an arbitrary angle and direction, the ice pack set 1 can be carried, used easily, and handled easily.

[0047] Further, by taking out the lid body 30 and the ice pack 10 from the cold storage container 20 and gripping the strap 40, the user can use the ice pack 10. At this time, since the strap main body portion 41 is a string body, the user can easily grip the strap 40 (especially the strap main body portion 41), and since the ice pack 10 can be used facing any angle or direction, it is easy to bring the ice pack 10 into contact with the place where icing is desired, and the ice pack 10 can be easily handled.

[0048] Furthermore, since the strap main body portion 41 is annular, it is easy to hook on a handle, a hook, etc., easy to carry the ice pack set 1, and can prevent dropping.

[0049] Also, the strap 40 has a strap connection portion 45 made of an annular string body. The strap connection portion 45 made of a string body is locked to the lid connection portion 37, and the strap 40 is attached to the lid body 30. Therefore, the strap 40 can be positioned in a free direction with respect to the lid body 30, and when the user grips the strap 40 (especially the strap main body portion 41), the ice pack set 1 can be carried, used easily, and handled more easily.

[0050] Further, by taking out the lid body 30 and the ice pack 10 from the cold storage container 20 and gripping the strap 40, the user can use the ice pack 10. At this time, since the strap connection portion 45 is a string body, the ice pack 10 can be used facing any angle or direction, so it is easy to bring the ice pack 10 into contact with the place where icing is desired, and the ice pack 10 can be handled more easily.
