ABSTRACT:
A pen-recording apparatus for writing on a sheet of recording medium on a rotatable platen, with plural pens movable with a carriage along the platen. The apparatus comprises a pen-holding head which is supported by the carriage rotatably about an axis perpendicular to a line of movement of the carriage, and which holds the plural pens such that axes of the pens are evenly spaced from each other circumferentially of the head, and such that the pens are axially movable toward and away from the platen. The carriage rotatably supports a pinion coupled to the pen-holding head to transmit a rotary motion to the pen-holding head. The apparatus further comprises a rack member including a rack which is disposed parallel to the platen and engageable with the pinion to rotate the pinion when the carriage is moved in one of opposite directions along the platen. There is provided a device for holding the pinion and the rack out of engagement with each other to prevent the pinion from being rotated by the rack when the carriage is moved in the other direction.
