The patent application does not specify the materials used in the construction of the various components of the recording device. Understanding the materials used could provide insights into the durability and performance of the device.
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.
