Abstract
A liquid supplying member supplies liquid from a liquid container to a liquid ejection head which are provided in a liquid ejection apparatus. In the liquid supplying member, a flexible base member has a face formed with at least one groove. A flexible first plate member is joined to the face of the base member so as to seal at least a part of the at least one groove to form at least one liquid supplying passage, through which the liquid is supplied from the liquid container to the liquid ejection head. A first connector is monolithically formed with a longitudinal end portion of the base member to connect the at least one groove to one of the liquid container and the liquid ejection head.
