Abstract

See full text

A mounting member includes a position alignment member, an attachment member and a moving member. The position alignment member is positionally aligned with respect to a liquid consumption apparatus in three directions. The attachment member is attached to the position alignment member and includes an inner portion flow path and a liquid supply port. The moving member is attached to the attachment member, and configured and arranged to move according to pressure changes in the inner portion flow path. The moving member is disposed at a position that faces and contacts one end portion of a rod-shaped member provided in the liquid consumption apparatus when the mounting member is mounted in the liquid consumption apparatus so that displacement of the other end portion of the rod-shaped member is detected by a sensor that detects a liquid remaining amount state of the liquid supply source.
