Recording apparatus
Abstract
Head cartridge (12) is positioned within a carriage (1) by the fact that a positioning protrusion (14) on both sides of the head cartridge is fitted into a positioning groove of the carriage. The head cartridge is secured by the fact that an inclined surface of the upper portion of the rear surface is pressed with the press-contacting roller of a locking lever (8,9). The locking lever is provided with a pressing member which presses the rear surface of the head cartridge by the rotation of the locking lever during the operation of removing the cartridge. An auxiliary engagement portion and an auxiliary guide, which contact only during attachment and detachment operations of the head cartridge to restrict the attachment and detachment locuses, are provided in the head cartridge and the carriage, respectively.
