20150042722 | LIQUID EJECTING HEAD AND LIQUID EJECTING APPARATUS - A liquid ejecting head is disclosed. The liquid ejecting head includes a liquid inlet which is provided on one surface of the liquid ejecting head and to which a liquid maintaining portion that maintains liquid is connected, a recessed portion in which the liquid inlet is provided on an inner side and which is open to the one surface, a groove portion which is continuously provided across a vicinity of the recessed portion on an outer side of the recessed portion, and open to the one surface, and a communication path which communicates with a side surface where the groove portion and the one surface intersect with each other, or with a surface opposite to the one surface. | 02-12-2015 |
20150224777 | RECORDING APPARATUS - A recording apparatus includes a case, disposed outside a housing, holding a liquid holding member that holds a liquid to be supplied to a recording unit and having a discharge opening that discharges the liquid in the liquid holding member to the exterior, and a connection portion to which the discharge opening is connected. The case has a cover member capable of opening and closing the case by pivoting central to an axis line extending in a direction that intersects with a vertical direction, and a guide portion, provided on an inner surface of the cover member, that guides the liquid holding member when the liquid holding member is set in the case with the cover member in an open state so that the discharge opening of the liquid holding member is connected to the connection portion. | 08-13-2015 |
20150258798 | RECORDING APPARATUS - A recording apparatus includes a housing; a recording head that is provided inside the housing and records an image on paper by ejecting ink on the paper; a case that is attached to the housing in such a manner that the case can be separated from a side wall of the housing; and a first supply tube that supplies ink in a liquid container body contained in the case to the recording head. A through hole is provided in the side wall of the housing so as to allow the first supply tube to pass therethrough, and a through hole is provided in the case so as to allow the first supply tube to pass therethrough. The through hole in the case expands to be larger than the through hole in the side wall. | 09-17-2015 |
20150259129 | FLUID CONTAINER AND FLUID CONSUMING DEVICE - A technique is provided to facilitate connection of a fluid container with a fluid consuming device and disconnection of the fluid container from the fluid consuming device by a simple configuration. There is provided a fluid container detachably connectable with a fluid consuming device. The fluid container comprises: a fluid container body at least partly made of a material having flexibility and configured to contain a fluid; a fluid supply structure located at one end portion of the fluid container body and configured to be connectable with a fluid introducing structure provided in the fluid consuming device; and a container-side electrical connection structure linked with the fluid supply structure and configured to have a contact arranged to come into contact with a device-side electrical connection structure provided in the fluid consuming device. The fluid supply structure and the container-side electrical connection structure are arranged in a positional relationship such that the contact of the container-side electrical connection structure is separated away from the fluid consuming device, prior to the fluid supply structure, when the fluid container is disconnected from the fluid consuming device. | 09-17-2015 |
20160001567 | LIQUID SUPPLY UNIT AND LIQUID EJECTION DEVICE - A liquid supply unit includes a pressure adjusting valve portion that includes a liquid outlet connectable to an upstream end of a supply passage, which supplies liquid to a liquid ejection head, a liquid inlet that draws in the liquid from a liquid supply source containing the liquid, a pressure chamber at least partially formed by a flexible portion configured to be deformed when the pressure changes, an urging member configured to urge the flexible portion in a direction in which the flexible portion increases a volume of the pressure chamber, and an opening-closing valve configured to allow the liquid to be drawn from the liquid supply source to the pressure chamber through the liquid inlet in accordance with a deformation of the flexible portion. | 01-07-2016 |
20160067978 | LIQUID CONTAINER, LIQUID CONSUMPTION APPARATUS, AND ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - A liquid container that supplies a liquid to a liquid consumption apparatus via a liquid introduction part disposed in the liquid consumption apparatus. The liquid container includes: a liquid container part that stores the liquid; a liquid supply part that is in communication with an inside of the liquid container part, that has a liquid supply opening facing in a first direction, and that the liquid introduction part is to be connected to, the first direction being a longitudinal direction of one end portion of the liquid container part; and an operation part that is connected to the liquid container part and that has a grip part that is grippable. | 03-10-2016 |
20160067979 | LIQUID CONTAINING BODY, ELECTRIC CONNECTION BODY, AND LIQUID CONSUMING APPARATUS - Simplification of a connecting operation for liquid supply between a liquid consuming apparatus and a liquid containing body at least a part of which is flexible is achieved. A printer | 03-10-2016 |
