As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the present application provides an ink bottle including a bottle body 1, a moving member 2, and a mouth 3. The bottle body 1 includes a receiving chamber 11. The mouthpiece 3 includes an ink passage 31, and the ink passage 31 is connected to the accommodating chamber 11. The moving member 2 can move in the ink bottle, that is, the moving member 2 can move from the accommodating chamber 11 to the ink passage 31 and also can move from the ink passage 31 to the accommodating chamber 11, and the moving member 2 can also move in the accommodating chamber 11. The bottle body 1 may have an external thread and the mouth 3 may have an internal thread, which are connected by a thread.

As shown in fig. 2, when the ink bottle is in a first state, for example, when the ink bottle is stored, the ink bottle is in an upright storage state, and the moving member 2 is located in the accommodating chamber 11 and can move relative to the bottle body 1.

When the ink bottle is left standing for a long time, the ink in the accommodating cavity 11 may be separated into particles or layered, and the separated particles are easily adsorbed at the ink outlet end of the ink channel 31, so that the ink channel 31 is blocked and the filling speed is reduced. By shaking the ink bottle, the moving member 2 located in the accommodating chamber 11 and the bottle body 1 are relatively moved to enable the moving member 2 to stir ink, so that the ink is restored to a uniform state.

As shown in fig. 3, when the ink bottle is installed in the ink tank 4, the ink bottle needs to be turned upside down to make the ink bottle in the second state, so that the ink flows out under the action of gravity after installation, and when the ink bottle is in the second state, at least a part of the moving member 2 is located in the ink passage 31 to close the ink passage 31.

When the moving member 2 is at least partially located in the ink passage 31, the ink passage 31 can be blocked, so that the ink can be prevented from flowing out of the ink passage 31 when the ink bottle is turned upside down before being mounted on the ink tank 4.

As shown in fig. 2, in one possible embodiment, the ink channel 31 has a first opening portion 311 and a second opening portion 312, the first opening portion 311 forming an ink outlet.

Compared with the ink channel 31 adopting the stepped hole structure, the transition of the ink channel 31 adopting the stepped hole structure is not smooth enough, the moving speed of the moving member 2 in the ink channel 31 may be reduced, and the moving member 2 may fall on the stepped surface, so that the possibility that at least part of the moving member 2 enters the first opening 311 and blocks the ink channel 31 is reduced. By adopting the transition section 313, the first opening part 311 and the second opening part 312 with different inner diameters can be smoothly connected, so that the moving part 2 can move smoothly in the ink channel 31, and at least part of the moving part 2 can reach the first opening part 311 to close the ink channel 31.

As shown in fig. 4, in one possible embodiment, the sectional area of the moving member 2 is not smaller than the sectional area of the first opening portion 311. When the ink bottle is in the second state, at least a part of the moving member 2 can be located in the ink passage 31 for blocking the ink passage 31.

The moving member 2 can be from holding chamber 11 to ink passageway 31, and can block off first opening 311 to block off ink passageway 31, and moving member 2 is located ink passageway 31, even there is the granule of precipitating in the ink, the granule of precipitating also can be attached to the surface of moving member 2, when need pour out the ink, drive moving member 2 open ink passageway 31 can, because the granule is attached to the surface of moving member 2, consequently can reduce the possibility that the ink filling speed slows down or the granule of precipitating blocks up out the ink end.

As shown in fig. 2, in one possible embodiment, an ink outlet 32 is provided at an end of the first opening 311 away from the second opening 312, the diameter of the ink outlet 32 is smaller than that of the second opening 312, and the cross-sectional area of the moving member 2 is larger than that of the ink outlet 32 and equal to that of the first opening 311.

The ink outlet 32 can reduce the possibility that the moving member 2 falls off from the ink channel 31, and the moving member 2 can close the first opening 311 to prevent the ink from flowing out of the ink channel 31. The diameter of the moving member 2 is equal to the sectional area of the first opening 311, and at least part of the moving member 2 can enter the first opening 311, so that the possibility of shaking of the moving member 2 is reduced, and the stability of the moving member 2 for blocking the ink channel 31 is improved.
