Abstract:
An image-recording apparatus includes a cartridge including a first storage chamber, a tank including a second storage chamber, a recording portion, a detected portion, a detector, and a wall portion. Liquid supplied from the first storage chamber to the second storage chamber through an inlet port is supplied from the second storage chamber to the recording portion through an outlet port. The wall portion partitions an internal space of the second storage chamber into a first region including the liquid inlet port and a second region including the detected portion. The wall portion extends upward than the liquid inlet port and the detected portion and downward than the liquid inlet port and the detected portion. Communication between the first region and the second region is allowed through upper and lower communication portions. The upper communication portion is positioned upward than the liquid inlet port and the detected portion.

Claim (Index 8):
An image-recording apparatus comprising:\n a tank connectable to a cartridge and comprising:\n a liquid inlet port through which liquid stored in the cartridge is configured to be introduced; \n a storage chamber configured to store the liquid introduced thereinto from the cartridge through the liquid inlet port; and \n a liquid outlet port configured to discharge the liquid stored in the storage chamber to flow out therefrom; \n a recording portion comprising a nozzle through which the liquid supplied from the storage chamber through the liquid outlet port is configured to be ejected in a form of liquid droplets; a detected portion disposed in the storage chamber, the detected portion being configured to change in state in a case where a liquid level of the liquid stored in the storage chamber becomes equal to or lower than a threshold level in a vertical direction; a detector configured to detect change in state of the detected portion and output a detection signal upon detection of the change; and a wall portion partitioning an inner space of the storage chamber into a first region and a second region, the liquid inlet portion being provided in the first region and the detected portion being provided in the second region, the wall portion extending from a position upward relative to the liquid inlet port and the detected portion to a position downward relative to the liquid inlet port and the detected portion in the vertical direction, the first region and the second region being allowed to communicate with each other through a communication portion, the communication portion being formed in a lower end portion of the wall portion in the vertical direction.
