An actuation mechanism for a lever including a spring member supported by the lever and frame of the printer and an actuation portion for rotating the lever by pressing and displacing an intermediate portion of the spring member. The printer may include a feed-in roller for feeding sheets of paper, a carriage for printing the sheet fed by the feed-in roller, a feed-in gear for rotating the feed-in roller, a movable gear rotatably supported by a rotatable lever and capable of assuming a first position in which the movable gear meshes with the feed-in gear to rotate the feed-in gear and a second position in which the movable gear does not mesh with the feed-in gear, and an actuation mechanism.

An electronic timekeeping apparatus includes a temperature value generating circuit for generating a temperature value, a temperature value converting circuit including a slope adjusting circuit which provides a slope corrected output in accordance with a frequency versus temperature characteristic of the apparatus in response to the temperature value, a pace compensation data circuit for producing pace compensation data corresponding to the slope corrected output, and a pace compensating circuit for compensating pace of the apparatus in accordance with the pace compensation data. An offset adjustment circuit may operate on said temperature value or said slope corrected output. A method for compensating pace of an electronic timekeeping apparatus includes the steps of generating a temperature value corresponding to temperature of the apparatus, correcting the temperature value in accordance with slope of a frequency versus temperature characteristic of the apparatus to produce a slope corrected value, producing pace compensation data in response to the slope corrected value, and adjusting the pace in accordance with the pace compensation data.

A piezo-electric/electrostrictive film type chip (50) includes: a ceramic substrate (70) having a spacer plate (74) having a windows-disposed pattern (100) having a plurality of window portions (75) and a thin closure plate (72) for closing the window portions (75) which is unitarily connected with the spacer plate; and a piezo-electric/electrostrictive working portion (71) having a lower electrode (81), a piezo-electric/electrostrictive layer (82), and an upper electrode (83), each being formed in the form of a layer and laminated in this order at a closure portion of the window (75) on the outer surface of the closure plate (72) by a film formation method. A pin hole (52) for positioning is formed in or near the center of gravity of the windows-disposed pattern (100). Deterioration of positional preciseness of the pin hole and a through hole of the piezo-electric/electrostrictive actuator can be minimized, and the piezo-electric/electrostrictive actuator can be unitarily connected with an ink nozzle member with high positional preciseness.

A carriage, on which a recording head is mounted, and to which a moving unit is connected, reciprocates a recording area by the moving unit to perform recording by the recording head. In the carriage, a recording head mount part and a connection part to the moving unit are separately provided, and the mount part and the connection part are coupled by a coupling structure having a linear elastic member. Hereby, vibration from the moving unit is shielded in the division portion and is not transmitted to the recording head mount part. Therefore, recording accuracy of the recording head can be kept in a high state.

A liquid ejection head is operable to eject a liquid droplet toward a medium at a liquid ejection point A first roller transports the medium toward the liquid ejection point. A second roller ejects the medium transported from the liquid ejection point to the outside of the apparatus. At least one detection roller is directly brought into contact with the medium and is rotated in accordance with the transportation of the medium, the at least one detection roller being disposed in the vicinity of at least one of the first roller and the second roller. A detector detects a rotation amount of the detection roller. A controller controls the transportation of the medium in accordance with the rotation amount.

An ink jet printer head includes a spacer including pressure generating chambers continuous to nozzle openings, ink supply paths, and reservoirs, a cover member for covering the pressure generating chambers in a sealing fashion, and pressure generating means for generating pressure in the pressure generating chambers in accordance with print data. In processing a silicon single-crystal substrate vertically oriented in (110) by anisotropic etching process, one of the walls of a path hole for forming a pressure generating chamber is aligned with one of the walls of a path hole for forming a reservoir. Walls defining the path hole for forming a pressure generating chamber, which are located in the vicinity of a nozzle opening, are connected to each other at an obtuse angle. As a result, the ink supply path serving as a narrow path for ink flow and the pressure generating chamber are formed as smooth flow paths. The walls in an area in the vicinity of the nozzle opening where ink tends to stay are substantially equally distanced from the nozzle opening. A smooth flow of ink is ensured.
