摘要

A liquid container for supplying a liquid to a liquid ejection apparatus comprises: a liquid chamber provided to store the liquid; an air chamber connected with the liquid chamber to introduce the outside air into the liquid chamber with consumption of the liquid in the liquid chamber; an open-air hole provided to introduce the outside air into the air chamber; and a liquid inlet provided to fill the liquid into the liquid chamber, wherein the liquid inlet is located at a lower position than the open-air hole, in a filling attitude of the liquid container in which the liquid is filled into the liquid chamber.

主权项

1. A liquid container system for supplying a liquid to a liquid ejection apparatus, the liquid container system comprising:
at least a first and a second liquid container, each container including a liquid chamber adapted to store the liquid; and a fitting unit on each of the at least two liquid containers, the fitting unit coupling the first liquid container with the second liquid container; each liquid chamber including an open side face covered with a film and a closed side face on an opposite side of the liquid chamber as the open side face, each fitting unit including a first fitting element wall extending in a direction from the closed side face towards the film covering the open side face and intersecting the open side face and a second fitting element wall defining a concave region of one of the at least two liquid containers configured to receive the first fitting element wall of the other liquid container, the second fitting element wall extending from a peripheral position of the closed side face in a direction from the film covering the open side face towards the closed side face and intersecting the closed side face; and the first fitting element wall and the second fitting element wall include first fitting portions and second fitting portions, respectively, coupling the first liquid container with the second liquid container.
