Abstract

See full text

A fluid ejection device ejecting a fluid, the fluid ejection device includes: a fluid container; a fluid ejection unit; a delivery needle; a guard cover; and a guide. The fluid container includes a container portion and a withdrawal portion. The container portion contains a fluid for ejection, and the withdrawal portion allows withdrawal of the fluid contained in the container portion. The fluid ejection unit ejects a fluid onto an ejection target. The delivery needle provides a flow passage which communicates with the fluid ejection unit. The guard cover projects over the delivery needle. The guide mates with the fluid container, and then slidably guides the withdrawal portion toward a locking position where the delivery needle sticks through the withdrawal portion.
