CARTRIDGE AND CARTRIDGE REUSE METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18628695 titled 'CARTRIDGE AND CARTRIDGE REUSE METHOD
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a cartridge with an absorber to hold liquid, a tank with an absorber chamber, a lid with an air communication port, and a partition member inside the absorber chamber.
- The cartridge includes an absorber to retain liquid.
- The tank has an opening and an absorber chamber to hold the absorber.
- The lid member is joined to the tank opening and includes an air communication port.
- A partition member is located inside the absorber chamber.
- The lid member has a first protrusion surrounding the air communication port.
- The partition member has a groove connected to the absorber chamber and a second protrusion facing the first protrusion.
- A communication path is formed between the first and second protrusions.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various industries such as automotive, medical, and consumer goods. - It can be applied in devices requiring liquid absorption and containment.
Problems Solved: - Provides a secure and efficient way to retain and manage liquids. - Ensures proper communication with the atmosphere for controlled liquid absorption.

Original Abstract Submitted
A cartridge includes an absorber to retain a liquid, a tank including an opening and an absorber chamber to hold the absorber, a lid member joined to the opening of the tank and including an air communication port communicating with atmosphere, and a partition member arranged between the lid member located inside the absorber chamber. The lid member includes a first protrusion to protrude toward the partition member, and the first protrusion is formed to surround the air communication port. The partition member includes a groove to be connected to the absorber chamber and a second protrusion to face the first protrusion. A communication path communicating with the air communication port is formed between the first protrusion and the second protrusion. In other words, it has the potential to contribute to the achievement of a sustainable society, such as a decarbonized society/circular society.
