ABSTRACT:
A recording apparatus includes a head support plate engageable with the rear end of a support shaft of a support frame; a print head carried on the head support plate; an operable member rotatably connected to the support frame; a platen rotatably provided on the operable member so as to face the print head when the operable member is in a closed position; a regulating plate integral with the head support plate and contactable with the platen shaft when the operable member is in a closed position; and actuating lever rotatable on the support frame and engageable with the head support plate; and a biasing spring. The biasing spring is laid among the support frame, the head support plate and the actuating lever for biasing a force in a direction in which the print head is brought into elastic contact with the platen and the regulating plate is biased toward the platen shaft when the operable member is in the closed position, and at the same time for biasing the force in a direction in which the print head is separated away from the platen when the operable member is in an opened position.
