A liquid supply apparatus (10) is provided. The liquid supply apparatus
(10) has a cylinder (12), a piston (14) and a piston pushing
apparatus. The cylinder (12) is provided with a head portion (20)
with outlet (24). The cylinder (12) has a rear end opened. The piston
(14) is inserted into the cylinder (12). The piston moves along the
longitudinal direction of the cylinder (12) so as to inject liquid contained
in the cylinder (12). The piston pushing apparatus (16) pushes the
piston (14). The piston pushing apparatus (16) has a moving member
contacting the rear portion of the piston (14), a electric motor and a movement
transferring mechanism. The movement transferring mechanism converts the rotation
of the motor into the linear movement of the moving member.
