Liquid container and recorder

The invention is to connect a liquid container, having a fluid connecting portion and an information memory medium (9), to the main body of a recording apparatus without generating stress in both connecting portions. An information memory medium (9) is fixed on the internal wall of a connection aperture (8a) of an information memory medium holder (8), which is contained in a space defined by an information memory medium holder containing portion (6d) and a bottom cover (1). The space is of a size capable of containing the information memory medium holder (8) without contact thereto, and the information memory medium holder (8) can change its position and direction in the space. The changes in the position and direction of the information memory medium holder (8) allow to achieve fluid connection and connection of the information memory medium without generating stress in the connecting portions thereof, even if the fluid connecting portion and the connecting portion for the information memory medium in the main body of the recording apparatus have certain aberration in the relative position and relative direction.
