Ink bottle for refilling printer cartridges

A liquid storage bottle includes a bottle body having a resin-made first cylindrical part at one end, the first cylindrical part having an opening at its front end, and a tubular nozzle for pouring out the liquid contained in the inside of the bottle body by way of the opening, the tubular nozzle having a resin-made second cylindrical part bonded to the bottle body. The inner peripheral surface of the second cylindrical part is welded to the outer peripheral surface of the first cylindrical part. The outer peripheral surface of the first cylindrical part is provided with an annular groove extending in the circumferential direction and the annular groove is made to contain a part of the resin that is molten during the bonding operation.

Liquid storage bottle and method of manufacturing the same

A liquid storage bottle includes a bottle main body having a first cylindrical portion formed of a resin and a nozzle and has a second cylindrical portion formed of a resin and welded to the first cylindrical portion on an outer peripheral side of the first cylindrical portion. The first cylindrical portion includes an outer peripheral surface and a first annular surface extending radially outward from an axial end portion of the outer peripheral surface, the second cylindrical portion includes an inner peripheral surface facing the outer peripheral surface of the first cylindrical portion and a second annular surface which extends radially outward from an axial end portion of the inner peripheral surface and faces the first annular surface of the first cylindrical portion, and a peripheral wall portion extending in an axial direction is formed radially outside the second annular surfaces.

Cap for ink bottle for refilling printer cartridges

Nozzle for ink bottle for refilling printer cartridges

A liquid storage bottle includes a nozzle which has an inlet through which a liquid is injected, a cylindrical cap which is mountable on the nozzle to open or close the inlet, a slit valve which is provided in the inlet and includes a plurality of slits intersecting each other, and a sealing unit which seals the inlet when the cap is mounted on the nozzle. The cap includes a protrusion which protrudes from a surface facing the inlet toward the slit valve when the cap is mounted on the nozzle, and a tip portion of the protrusion faces the slit valve at a position separated in a radial direction of the nozzle from an intersection of the plurality of slits in a state where the inlet is sealed by the sealing unit.

Liquid storage bottle

A liquid storage bottle includes a bottle main body, a nozzle having a discharge port through which a liquid stored in the bottle main body is discharged, a cap mountable on the nozzle and a sealing unit sealing the discharge port when the cap is mounted on the nozzle. The sealing unit includes an annular first rib, an annular second rib and an annular third rib. The outer peripheral surface of the first rib is inclined with respect to the axial direction of the nozzle so that a diameter decreases toward a tip portion of the first rib and the inner peripheral surface of the third rib is inclined with respect to the axial direction of the cap so that a diameter increases toward a tip portion of the third rib.
