Liquid container

A liquid container adapted to be detachably mounted on a liquid consuming device, the liquid container comprising:

• a liquid containing portion storing liquid therein;
• a liquid supply portion adapted to be connected to the liquid consuming device when the liquid container is mounted on the liquid consuming device;
• a liquid guide path configured to guide the liquid stored in the liquid containing portion to the liquid supply portion;
• and
• an air communicating hole configured to introduce external air into the liquid containing portion according to consumption of the liquid in the liquid containing portion,
• wherein the liquid containing portion includes a first inner wall surface, a second inner wall surface that crosses the first inner wall surface to form a corner portion therebetween, and a communicating the liquid containing portion with the liquid guide path, and
• wherein the port is adjacent to the second inner wall surface such an extent that the port is situated inside a meniscus of the liquid that is formed at the corner portion and a part of the meniscus seals the port.
