Abstract

The present invention provides: a puncture port which is capable of ensuring sealability when a puncture is formed, regardless of the size of an insertion part of a puncture instrument; and a liquid storage container equipped with such a puncture port. A puncture port 40 is provided to a liquid storage container for storing a liquid, is to be punctured by a puncture instrument 200 equipped with a needle tube part 210 having a through-hole 215 formed therein, and comprises: a cylindrical port body 43 ; and a first partition wall 411 and a second partition wall 421 that are provided to the port body 43 . In the puncturing direction, the distance D between the first partition wall 411 and the second partition wall 421 is longer than the length HL in the puncturing direction of an opening portion 220 of the through-hole 215 at least at the leading end of the needle tube part 210.

Claims (17)

1 . A puncture port that is provided in a liquid storage container for storing a liquid, and is puncturable with a puncture instrument including a needle tube portion having a through hole provided therein, the puncture port comprising:

a cylindrical port main body portion comprising a first port member and a second port member; and

a first partition and a second partition provided in the cylindrical port main body portion,

wherein the first port member has a pair of slits extending in a longitudinal direction of the first port member at one end of the first port member, and

wherein a distance between the first partition and the second partition in a puncture direction is longer than at least a length of an opening portion of the through hole at a tip portion of the needle tube portion in the puncture direction.

2 . The puncture port according to claim 1 , further comprising a cap portion including a lid portion,

wherein the cap portion is provided in the cylindrical port main body portion to cover the second partition, and during use, the lid portion is removable so that the second partition is exposed.

3 . The puncture port according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a gap for fluid to flow between the cylindrical port main body portion and the cap portion, and

an open hole portion at a center portion of the second partition.

4 . A liquid storage container comprising:

a liquid accommodation portion that accommodates a liquid; and

the puncture port according to claim 1 having one end provided in an interior of the liquid accommodation portion.

5 . The liquid storage container according to claim 4 , wherein

the liquid accommodation portion is provided by welding peripheral edge portions of a set of sheet-shaped members provided in an opposite manner,

the puncture port is welded to the set of sheet-shaped members, and

the sheet-shaped members and the puncture port are made of a same material.
