RECORDING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18357062 titled 'RECORDING DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a recording device with a drive transmission mechanism that can swing between engaging and disengaging with a driven gear, regulated by a regulating mechanism that swings around the rotation axis of the driven gear.
- The recording device includes a drive source, a driven portion with a driven gear, a drive transmission mechanism with a drive gear, and a regulating mechanism.
- The drive transmission mechanism can swing between engaging and disengaging with the driven gear.
- The regulating mechanism can swing to regulate the swing of the drive transmission mechanism around the rotation axis of the driven gear.

There may be other approaches or technologies that can achieve similar results in regulating the engagement of gears in recording devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
A recording device includes: a drive source; a driven portion having a driven gear; a drive transmission mechanism having a drive gear driven by the drive source and capable of swing between a first position where the drive gear is engaged with the driven gear and a second position where the drive gear is not engaged with the driven gear; and a regulating mechanism capable of swing between a regulating position where swing of the drive transmission mechanism is regulated and a non-regulating position where the swing of the drive transmission mechanism is not regulated. In the recording device, the regulating mechanism is capable of swing around a rotation axis of the driven gear.
