Patent ID: 8511817

Claim:
A recording device comprising: a cassette in which a plurality of recording media is accommodated by being stacked; an installation portion in which the cassette is installed due to the movement of the cassette in installation direction; a transmission member which has a shaft portion, an abutting portion, and a connection portion, wherein the distance between the shaft portion and the abutting portion is shorter than the distance between the shaft portion and the connection portion, the transmission member transmitting a force that the abutting portion receives from the cassette to the connection portion as an acting force by rotating on the shaft portion as a rotation axis when the cassette abuts on the abutting portion due to the movement of the cassette in the installation direction; a damper mechanism portion connected to the connection portion in the transmission member and receiving the acting force from the connection portion; a separation slope positioned at downstream side in the installation direction of the cassette and separating the recording media; and a restriction member connected to the damper mechanism portion, restricting the movement of the recording media at an upstream side position in the installation direction of the separation slope, and releasing the restriction on the movement of the recording media by retreating from the position when receiving the acting force from the damper mechanism portion.
