ABSTRACT:
A sales-registration-data processing apparatus includes a display unit being independent of a control unit housing and having a display portion on an outer surface thereof, and a tilt-angle adjustment and maintaining mechanism rotatably connecting the display unit to the housing, capable of tilting the display unit with respect to the housing and maintaining a desired tilt angle of the display unit. The tilt-angle adjustment and maintaining mechanism includes an erection guide groove formed in the outer surface of the housing and having a substantially circular-arc shaped vertical cross section, a guide projection mounted on a region of the outer surface of the display unit opposite to the display portion and being slidable along the erection guide groove of the housing, and a frictional-force adjustment mechanism mounted on the guide projection to be frictionally engaged with the erection guide groove and capable of adjusting frictional force generated between the frictional-force adjustment mechanism and the erection guide groove.
