A cartridge detachably attachable to an apparatus body of an image forming apparatus that forms an image on a recording medium in which a memory unit is fixed by an inexpensive adhesive member that can control adhesion force. The cartridge includes: a memory; and a memory support member that supports the memory. The memory has a semiconductor device storing information related to a cartridge, a sealing material that protects the semiconductor device, and a cartridge electrical contact configured to be electrically connectable to a body electrical contact of the image forming apparatus body for transferring information on the semiconductor device to the image forming apparatus body. The sealing material and the memory support member contain the same type of a thermoplastic resin, the sealing material and the memory support member have bonding faces, and at least parts of the bonding faces are welded and fixed by a solvent.

Examples of metal traces are described herein. In some examples, a print cartridge includes metal traces. Some examples of a print cartridge may include a joint. In some examples, the joint may be a laser-welded joint. In some examples of the print cartridge, the print cartridge may also include metal traces situated in the laser-welded joint.

A remanufactured ink cartridge and an electronic patch are provided in the present disclosure. A remanufactured ink cartridge includes an ink accommodation container; an original chip disposed at an outer side of the ink accommodation container, where the original chip includes a first memory; and an electronic patch disposed between the original chip and the ink accommodation container. The electronic patch includes a second memory and first programming terminals electronically connected to the second memory; the first programming terminals are configured to program data for repairing to the second memory; the data for repairing is configured to repair or replace at least a portion of data in the first memory; and at least one of the first programming terminals is exposed outside the original chip.

A repair chip, an ink cartridge, and a printer are provided. In the repair chip, a first surface of a substrate is provided with a first contact point and a second contact point. A repair resistor, a first tin point, and a second tin point are provided on a second surface of the substrate. Each of the first tin point and the second tin point is connected to both ends of the repair resistor. Each of the first contact point and the second contact point is electrically connected to the printer. The first contact point is connected to the first tin point, and the second contact point is connected to the second tin point; each of the first tin point and the second tin point is connected to the chip contact points of an ink cartridge chip.

A storage device includes a storage section including a plurality of walls and storing an object in a space surrounded by the plurality of walls; a flexible printed substrate including a first electrode provided in a first wall among the plurality of walls, and a second electrode provided in a second wall among the plurality of walls; and a double-sided tape including a base material, a first adhesive layer formed on a first surface of the base material, and a second adhesive layer formed on a second surface of the base material opposite to the first surface, and adhering the flexible printed substrate to the storage section.
