Claims
- 1. A recording apparatus comprising:
- recording and correcting means which effects recording and correcting onto a recording medium;
- ribbon supporting means for mounting thereon a first ribbon for recording and a second ribbon for correcting, said ribbon supporting means being movable among a first position where said first ribbon opposes to said recording and correcting means, a second position where said second ribbon opposes to said recording and correcting means, and a third position where said first and second ribbons are out of opposition to said recording and correcting means;
- a motor for generating a rotation force, the motor being reversibly rotatable in a first direction and in a second direction;
- ribbon transport means, cooperating with said motor, for transporting said first ribbon;
- a rotation member rotated in cooperation with rotation of said motor, said rotation member in cooperation with rotation of said motor in said first direction, circulating said supporting means to said first position, said second position and said third position, and said rotation member fixing said support means to said first position upon rotation of said motor in said second direction; and
- one way transmitting means being provided between said motor and said ribbon transport means for transmitting only the rotation of said motor in said second direction to said support means.
- 2. A recording apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said rotation member includes a cam member having a plurality of cam portions for engaging and moving said support means.
- 3. A recording apparatus for recording onto a recording medium and capable of correcting an erroneous recording, comprising:
- a platen for supporting the recording medium;
- a recording ink sheet mounting section on which a recording ink sheet for recording onto said recording medium is mountable;
- a correcting ink sheet mounting section on which a correcting ink sheet for correcting an erroneous recording on said recording medium is mountable;
- recording and correcting means contactable with a recording ink sheet mounted on said recording ink sheet mounting section to record and contactable with a correcting ink sheet mounted on said correcting ink sheet mounting section to erase an erroneous recording;
- a motor;
- means for moving, by a driving force produced by said motor, said correcting ink sheet mounted on said correcting ink sheet mounting section between a contacting position where said correcting ink sheet is contactable with said recording and correcting means and a retracted position where said correcting ink sheet retracts from said contacting position; and
- conveying means for conveying said correcting ink sheet without conveying said recording ink sheet in response to movement of said correcting ink sheet between said contacting position and said retracted position.
- 4. A recording apparatus according to claim 3, wherein said effecting means has a plurality of type characters and further includes a hammer for impacting said type characters.
- 5. A recording apparatus according to claim 3, wherein said recording and correcting means have a hammer which performs both recording and correcting operations.
- 6. A recording apparatus according to claim 3, wherein said conveying means conveys said correcting ink sheet such that said correcting ink sheet is moved to said retracted position.
