The ink containing unit includes an ink refill portion through which ink is refilled and an ink level display surface disposed on a side surface of the main body. The side surface has an opening through which a jammed sheet is removed and a first cover configured to cover the opening. The ink level display surface and the first cover are juxtaposed on the side surface in a horizontal direction.

LIQUID CONTAINMENT BOTTLE AND LIQUID SUPPLY APPARATUS

A liquid containment bottle includes a bottle body having an internal space configured to contain liquid. The bottle body has: an upper surface, a nozzle having a forward end surface projecting upward from the upper surface, the nozzle having an opening formed in the forward end surface, and a circular wall which is positioned in a surrounding of the nozzle with a spacing distance from the nozzle, and which projects upward from the upper surface. An upper end of the circular wall is positioned above the forward end surface of the nozzle.

LIQUID CONTAINMENT BOTTLE AND LIQUID SUPPLY APPARATUS

A liquid containment bottle includes: a bottle body defining an internal space configured to contain liquid; and a cap configured to be attached to the bottle body. The bottle body has: a base end surface, a nozzle projecting from the base end surface in a first direction, and a circular wall positioned in a surrounding of the nozzle and projecting from the base end surface in the first direction. The nozzle has: a forward end surface formed with an opening through which the liquid in the internal space flows out, a seat surface located at a position which is closer to the circular wall than the forward end surface, and which is closer to the internal space than the forward end surface in the first direction, and a groove formed in the seat surface and having an end part connected to a space between the nozzle and the circular wall.

LIQUID CONTAINER

There is provided a liquid container including: a main body having an internal space configured to store liquid to be supplied to a tank of a liquid consuming apparatus; and a cap configured to be attached to the main body. The main body has: an upper surface, a nozzle projecting upward from the upper surface and having an opening formed in a forward end surface of the nozzle, and a circular wall positioned in a surrounding of the nozzle with a spacing distance with respect to the nozzle, and projecting upward from the upper surface; and a key member corresponding to a receiver key member provided on surrounding of a respective supply port of the tank. The cap has a circular contacting part configured to liquid-tightly make contact with the circular wall in an attached state in which the cap is attached to the main body.

LIQUID SUPPLYING APPARATUS

There is provided a liquid supplying apparatus including: a liquid container including an internal space, and a tank having a storing chamber. The liquid container has: an upper surface, a nozzle, and a circular wall projecting upward from the upper surface. The tank has: a body; a projecting wall defining a tank recessed part, and a communicating tube positioned in the tank recessed part and having first and second channels which communicate the storing chamber with outside. The circular wall is inserted into the tank recessed part, and the communicating tube is inserted into the opening of the nozzle so as to allow the liquid to flow out from the internal space to the storing chamber. In a case that the liquid container is connected to the tank, the circular wall is positioned inside the projecting wall.

LIQUID CONTAINMENT BOTTLE AND LIQUID SUPPLY APPARATUS

A liquid containment bottle includes a bottle body. An internal space in which liquid to be supplied to a tank of a liquid consuming apparatus is contained is formed in the bottle body. The bottle body has: an upper surface, a nozzle projecting upward from the upper surface, the nozzle having a forward end surface in which an opening is formed, a circular wall positioned in a surrounding of the nozzle with a spacing distance from the nozzle, and projecting upward from the upper surface, and a key member which is formed in the circular wall and which conforms to a receiver key member provided on a surrounding of an inlet of the tank. The circular wall has a cylindrical shape. The circular wall includes a curved plate and a connecting plate connected to each other to form a part in a circumferential direction of the cylindrical shape.

An inkjet printing apparatus includes an ink tank that contains an ink to be supplied to a printing head that ejects the ink, the ink being injected from an ink bottle. The inkjet printing apparatus further includes an injection assistance member including a first passage and a second passage. The first passage is defined by a first upper end portion opening toward the outside of the ink tank and a first lower end portion opening toward the inside of the ink tank. The second passage is defined by a second upper end portion opening toward the outside of the ink tank and projecting upward less than the first upper end portion and a second lower end portion opening toward the inside of the ink tank and larger than the first lower end portion in terms of a distance from the bottom surface of the ink tank.

Container for printing material and cap

Examples of the present disclosure relate to a container for storing a material for a printing system. The container has a channel structure for conveying the material, the channel structure providing an opening of the container and an axis of the channel structure defining an axial direction. The container also has a valve structure disposed within the channel structure. The valve structure is translatable within the channel structure between a proximal position and a distal position in the axial direction. The valve structure is non-rotatable relative to the channel structure about the axis of the channel structure. The valve structure is arranged to seal the channel structure when the valve structure is in the proximal position.
