Abstract:
1. An inter-terminal connection structure for electrically connecting two terminals which are separated from each other, comprising: a first terminal mounted on a liquid storage body for storing a liquid; a second terminal which is separated from the first terminal and is mounted on a container main body for storing the liquid storage body; a first connection member which is in contact with the first terminal, has conductivity, and is mounted on the liquid storage body; a second connection member which has conductivity and includes a coil portion, a first arm portion extending from one end of the coil portion to be in contact with the second terminal, a second arm portion extending from the other end of the coil portion to be in contact with the first connection member; and a positioning member provided in the container main body, wherein the container main body has a bottom face and a side face which is connected to the bottom face and on which the second terminal is mounted, and the positioning member includes a first protruding portion to be inserted into the coil portion of the second connection member, and a second protruding portion which is made to be in contact with the second arm portion of the second connection member and thus limits elastic deformation of the second arm portion on a first plane parallel to the bottom face, thereby determining a relative angle between the first and second arm portions.
