Abstract: The recording device includes an elongated member 79 and a housing section 60. The housing section 60 houses the elongated member 79, and has a fixed end 61, a moving end, and an elongated variable section. A curved portion, which is a portion where the variable section is folded back on the way, moves following the movement of the carriage. In the height direction HD of the housing section 60, film member 76 having flexibility is disposed between the elongated member 79 and the housing section 60. A coefficient of friction between the film member 76 and the elongated member 79 is smaller than a coefficient of friction between the housing section 60 and the elongated member 79.

Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a conveyance belt that supports a medium, a carriage where a printing head is disposed for printing on a medium, and a gap adjusting unit that adjusts the gap between the conveyance belt and the printing head. The gap adjusting unit includes a gap adjusting motor, a power transmission unit including a rotation shaft that rotates with the driving force of the motor, a lifting unit, and a relative displacement mechanism. The lifting unit moves the carriage up and down with the rotational force of the rotation shaft transmitted by the power transmission unit. The relative displacement mechanism relatively displaces one of two members making up at least one of the power transmission unit or the lifting unit in the direction of allowing the upward displacement of the carriage with respect to the other that is in an operation stop state.
