Abstract
A movable platen 3 is fitted on an end of a lever 4, and pivotally supported by a case 1 and lid 2. A cancel cam 6 is mounted on the movable platen 3, and supported by the lid 2. A cancel pin 7 rotates with a steering shaft 17. A cam guide 5 is mounted on the movable platen 3, and has elastic arms 5b and 5c that contact with the cancel cam 6 when the lever 4 is swung and the cancel pin 7 impinges on the cancel cam 6. The structure of the present invention makes it simple to mount the cam guide by forming the cam guide with an elastic arm that contacts with the cancel cam when the lever is swung.
