Publication number: 20230321993Abstract: An object is to provide a liquid storage container capable of reducing the possibility of dispersion of liquid in a case where a lid member is detached. The lid member has a covering portion capable of covering the opening and a knob portion protruding from the covering portion in a direction in which the knob portion becomes more distant from the opening. The covering portion can deform into a convex shape in a case where the knob portion is pushed toward the inside from the outside of the opening in a state where the lid member is attached to the opening and can deform from the convex shape into a concave shape in a case where the knob portion is pulled up toward the outside from the inside of the opening in a state where the covering portion has deformed into the convex shape.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2023Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: MASATOSHI OHIRA, SHINICHI MIYAUCHI

Patent number: 8240826Abstract: An ink tank capable of optically detecting ink remaining in an ink accommodation chamber with high precision is provided. A printing apparatus, a method of manufacturing the ink tank, and a method of detecting ink remaining in the ink tank are also provided. Radiated light (11) projected into an ink accommodation chamber (5A) excites an illuminant material (10) contained in ink in the ink accommodation chamber (5A) to illuminate. Based on light (12) produced by the illuminant material (10), the amount of ink remaining in the ink accommodation chamber (5A) is detected.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2010Date of Patent: August 14, 2012Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Takashi Fukushima, Toshihiko Ujita, Shinichi Miyauchi

Patent number: 6702427Abstract: The invention is to connect a liquid container, having a fluid connecting portion and an information memory medium, to the main body of a recording apparatus without generating stress in both connecting portions. An information memory medium is fixed on the internal wall of a connection aperture of an information memory medium holder, which is contained in a space defined by an information memory medium holder containing portion and a bottom cover. The space is of a size capable of containing the information memory medium holder without contact thereto, and the information memory medium holder can change its position and direction in the space.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2002Date of Patent: March 9, 2004Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Eiichiro Shimizu, Hajime Yamamoto, Takeshi Kono, Shinichi Miyauchi, Yoshihiko Sugimura, Nobuyuki Hatasa, Hiroshi Koshikawa, Tatsuo Nanjo

Patent number: 6056393Abstract: An ink-jet recording apparatus that reduces degradation phenomena in a recording dignity, such as a staggered flying trajectory of an ink droplet caused by poor adhesion between an ink path and a substrate. The ink-jet apparatus includes, a first contacting surface, which enables the ink paths to contact a substrate. The first contacting surface is positioned at an incline relative to a second contacting surface. When a trenched top board is mounted on the substrate, which is fixed on a base plate, only a protrudent ridge, which is formed on an ejector N side of the contacting surface, contacts the substrate. When a pressurizing force is applied from an elastic member through a pressurizing member onto a portion to be pressurized, the contacting surface contacts uniformly with the substrate due to a deformation of the trenched top board.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 1997Date of Patent: May 2, 2000Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yoichi Taneya, Taiji Yoshinari, Shinichi Miyauchi, Masaru Iketani, Masaaki Okada
