Abstract: A method of welding a first member and a second member together includes preparing the first member and the second member, bringing the first member and the second member into contact to form a space between the first member and the second member, and bringing a welding horn into contact with the first member or the second member. The method of welding further includes performing a vibration process to vibrate the welding horn to weld the first member and the second member together by frictional heat, and performing a fluid-flow process to make fluid flow through the space. The fluid-flow process is performed during the vibration process.

Abstract: To provide a liquid storage container equipped with a plug member that can prevent leakage of a liquid from the liquid storage container and can be opened without causing scatter of the liquid, and a liquid ejection apparatus equipped with the liquid storage container.
