Abstract
A liquid cartridge is configured to be inserted into a liquid consuming apparatus in a first direction along a horizontal direction against an urging force directed in a second direction opposite the first direction, and thereby to be mounted to the liquid consuming apparatus. The liquid cartridge includes a lock surface and an operation portion. The liquid cartridge is configured to pivot between a first attitude and a second attitude. When the liquid cartridge is in the first attitude, the lock surface contacts a lock portion of the liquid consuming apparatus in the second direction, and the operation surface faces an upward direction and the second direction. When the liquid cartridge is in the second attitude, the lock surface is positioned further in a downward direction than the lock portion.
