A plurality of terminals are provided on a circuit board (200)of an ink cartridge (100), and a plurality of lines (L1,L2) are formed by contact portions of the plurality of terminals. In a first line (L1) among the plurality of lines, contact portions (210c,250c) of two terminals (210,250) for detecting attachment are arranged, and a contact portion (220c) of a power supply terminal (220) is arranged therebetween. The first line (L1) may be located at a leading side when the ink cartridge is moved in a predetermined direction and is mounted on a printing device, or the first line L1) may be the line closest to an opening (110op) of an ink supply port (110), or the first line may be the line closest to an ink supply needle.

A liquid supply device (10) for supplying liquid to a liquid jetting device (20) comprises: a liquid containing chamber (16) that contains liquid; and a tube (35) for being connected to the liquid jetting device (20) for supplying the liquid from the liquid containing chamber (16) to the liquid jetting device (20), the tube (35) including at least in part an elastic portion (351) that can elastically deform. The liquid supply device further comprises an opening and closing unit (37) for allowing and preventing the supply of liquid from the liquid supply device (10) to the liquid jetting device (20). The opening and closing unit (37) comprises: a slider (371); a locking pin (371e) for locking the slider (371) that is connected to one end of the slider (371); an operating unit (34) connected to the other end of the slider (371); and a support member (372) for supporting the tube (35), the elastic portion (351) of the tube (35) being positioned between the slider (371) and the support member (372). The slider (371) is movable between a first position (p31) and a second position (p32) with the locking pin (371e) as a rotating center, wherein when the slider (371) is in the first position, the liquid can flow inside the tube (35), but when the slider (371) is in the second position, the tube (35) is pushed by the slider (371) toward the support member (372) and deformed to prevent the liquid flow inside the tube (35).

A liquid storage container which is mounted on a carriage of a liquid ejecting apparatus ejecting a liquid while reciprocating the carriage on which an ejecting head is provided and supplies the liquid to the ejecting head includes a liquid storage chamber that stores the liquid therein, a stirring member that is provided in the liquid storage chamber, and a support structure that supports the stirring member in a state where the stirring member can swing. The stirring member is a member which is provided in the liquid storage chamber in a state capable of being swung by the reciprocation of the carriage, and in which a stirring surface, which stirs the liquid in the liquid storage chamber by the swinging at the liquid storage chamber, is formed on at least a portion of the stirring member, and a first buffer member is provided between the supporting structure and the stirring member.

A liquid container 1 including at least three liquid containing chambers 370, 390 and 430 which are mutually connected so as to have a descending connection and an ascending connection is provided. An injection port 601 communicating with the liquid containing chamber 370 positioned on the most upstream side is opened. The inside, of the liquid containing chamber 370 is depressurized by means of the vacuum sucking from a liquid supply hole 50. After a liquid is injected from the injection port 601 to a side of the liquid containing chamber 370, the injection hole 50 is sealed.
摘要:
A liquid cartridge is provided that supplies liquid to a liquid ejecting apparatus by being mounted in the liquid ejecting apparatus. The liquid cartridge includes a cartridge body having a side face in which an opening is formed; and a flexible film for forming an ink accommodating chamber that is a closed space for accommodating the liquid, with the cartridge body by covering the opening of the cartridge body. The flexible film is caused to deform toward the ink accommodating chamber by atmospheric pressure that acts on the flexible film when the liquid cartridge is got out from a vacuum bag in which the liquid cartridge is packaged, thereby increasing the pressure in the ink accommodating chamber.
摘要:
An ink cartridge for use with a recording apparatus, wherein the ink cartridge comprises a cartridge case formed hermetically and is so constructed that pressurized air can be introduced into the cartridge case in a state in which the ink cartridge is mounted to the recording apparatus. An ink outlet port from the cartridge case and an air inlet port for introducing the pressurized air into the cartridge case are provided to the cartridge case. The ink cartridge is so constructed that, when the ink cartridge is mounted to the recording apparatus, the ink outlet port and the air inlet port are connected to the recording apparatus in this order.

A liquid container includes a container body (2) formed with a liquid supply port (3), and a container-side fixing structure (7) which releasably regulates movement of the liquid container in.an outward pulling direction in cooperation with apparatus-side fixing structure provided for the container mounting part in a state where the liquid container is mounted onto the container mounting part. The container-side fixing structure (7) has a guide groove (16) into which a fixing pin of the apparatus-side fixing structure can be inserted, and which guides the fixing pin in mounting and removal operations of the liquid container to and from the container mounting part. The guide groove (16) includes a fixing part (18) which engages the fixing pin to regulate the movement of the liquid container (1) in the pulling direction in the state where the liquid container is mounted to the container mounting part. A slanted entrance surface (22) is located at an entrance part of the guide groove, which slanted entrance surface slants so that a groove depth decreases in the movement direction of the fixing pin that relatively moves in association with an inserting operation of the liquid container into the container mounting part.
