Recording apparatus with resilient displacement member and limiter mechanism

摘要

A recording apparatus of a recording medium is comprised of a lid, a lock mechanism, an operating mechanism and a transmitting mechanism. The lid is rotatably arranged at the main body of the apparatus so as to open or close an installing part for the recording medium. The lock mechanism locks the lid at a closed position against the main body of the apparatus. The operating mechanism is arranged at the main body of the apparatus. The transmitting mechanism is arranged between the operating mechanism and the lock mechanism. The transmitting mechanism has a resilient displacement member for use in transmitting an operation of the operating mechanism to the lock mechanism. The resilient displacement member is moved between a transmitting position where an operation of the operating mechanism is transmitted to the lock mechanism to release the locked state of the lid with the lock mechanism and a non-transmitting position where it is retracted from the operating mechanism and the lock mechanism.
