LIQUID CONTAINER AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18154690 titled 'LIQUID CONTAINER AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a liquid container designed to be used in a liquid ejection apparatus. The container consists of a bag that holds the liquid, a tube placed inside the bag with one end open to the inner space, a connection member that fits into the bag's aperture and connects to the other end of the tube, and a holding member supported by the connection member to hold the tube in place. The holding member has a groove where the tube can be fitted, and it can be molded as a single piece.

  • The liquid container is specifically designed for use in a liquid ejection apparatus.
  • It includes a bag to hold the liquid, a tube for liquid flow, a connection member, and a holding member.
  • The tube is placed inside the bag, with one end open to the inner space.
  • The connection member is fitted to the bag's aperture and connected to the other end of the tube.
  • The holding member is supported by the connection member and has a groove to hold the tube securely.
  • The holding member can be molded as a single piece, simplifying the manufacturing process.

Potential Applications

  • This liquid container can be used in various liquid ejection apparatus, such as inkjet printers or medical devices that require precise liquid ejection.
  • It can be utilized in industries that rely on liquid ejection technology, including manufacturing, research, and healthcare.

Problems Solved

  • The liquid container provides a secure and efficient way to hold and eject liquid in a controlled manner.
  • The design ensures that the tube remains in place and does not move or detach during operation.
  • The integration of the holding member into the connection member simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces the risk of component failure.

Benefits

  • The liquid container allows for precise and controlled liquid ejection, ensuring accurate and consistent results.
  • The secure holding of the tube prevents any leakage or misalignment during operation.
  • The simplified design and integration of components make the manufacturing process more efficient and cost-effective.


Original Abstract Submitted

A liquid container to be mounted in a liquid ejection apparatus contains liquid to be ejected from the liquid ejection apparatus. The liquid container comprises a liquid container bag containing liquid, at least one tube arranged in the inner space of the liquid container bag and having the first end open to the inner space, a connection member fitted to the aperture of the liquid container bag and connected to the second end of the tube and a holding member supported by the connection member and arranged in the inner space to hold the tube, the holding member having at least a groove for receiving the tube to be fitted thereinto at a position thereof other than the second end thereof. The holding member can integrally be molded.
