    Abstract: To enable simple and accurate positional adjustment of the various tape loading and driving elements of a cassette tape recording and/or reproducer, a single mode changing slider 20 controls respective displacements of moveable members of a reel base driving mechanism, a pinch-roller transferring mechanism, a brake operating mechanism, a back-tension exerting mechanism, a tape loading mechanism and so forth, which displacements are required whenever an optional mode of the apparatus is selected.

    Abstract: A recording and/or reproducing apparatus for a magnetic tape cassette has a back-tension arm pivotably mounted on a mechanical chassis of the apparatus and an actuator mechanism for releasing braking force applied on a pair of tape reel bases by a pair of braking arms while a magnetic tape is run at a high-speed speed. The actuator mechanism includes an axially sliding connector rod engaging with a slider through which said back-tension arm is actuated according to movement of the connector rod, whereby the back-tension arm may apply light friction to the take-up reel base in a reverse running mode in which the magnetic tape is fed from the take-up reel to the supply reel by rotation of a capstan and pinch roller at a relatively slow speed. This prevents the occurrence of slack in the magnetic tape when the tape is started in the reverse running mode.

    Abstract: A tape cassette comprises a cassette housing (1) having an upper section (2), a lower section (3), a pair of reel hubs (5a, 5b) rotatably accommodated therein for winding a magnetic tape (6) therearound, and a front opening through which the tape (6) is engageable with a recording and/or reproducing head. The lower section (3) is formed with a pair of openings (4a, 4b) for respectively receiving reel shafts for rotating the hubs (5a, 5b) and thereby driving the tape (6), and the upper section is formed with a recess (10, 12). A tape player with which the cassette cooperates is provided with a holder (14b) for the cassette, with a loading hook (11a) engageable in the recess (10, 12) in the upper cassette section, and with an arrangement of cams and levers for moving the loading hook (11a) between an ejection position wherein the tape cassette can be manually inserted partway into or removed from the cassette holder (14b) and a loaded position wherein an inserted cassette is fully drawn into the holder (14b), and for moving the holder (14b) between an upper position wherein a cassette can be loaded into or ejected from the holder (14b) and a lower position wherein a cassette loaded into the holder (14b) engages a tape drive.

    Abstract: A magnetic tape cassette for use in a magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus has a sliding plate provided on a lower surface to selectively cover and expose insertion apertures that open into the interior of the cassette. A front lid is provided which may be pivoted to either expose or cover a front opening in the cassette through which tape may be withdrawn for a recording/reproducing operation. When the front lid is in its closed position and the sliding plate covers the insertion apertures, the front lid is locked in its closed position. The magnetic tape cassette is thereby closed to prevent dust, oil and other contaminants from damaging the magnetic tape within.

    Abstract: A magnetic tape cassette in which a tape end detecting optical guide and a transparent window plate through which a tape winding state is viewed are coupled together by coupling members and of which all the components are made integral, of transparent resin. Thus, the number of assembly parts of the magnetic tape cassette is decreased and the assembling work thereof greatly simplified.

    Abstract: MODE CHANGING APPARATUS A feather-touch mode changer having low power requirements and being capable of selectively providing a plurality of modes of operation of a tape recording/reproducing apparatus, has two changing mechanisms which are each of the type that includes a rotatable changing gear with a toothless gap, a selectively actuable trigger for causing initial angular displacement of the changing gear from an inactive position in which the toothless gap faces a drive gear to an actuating position in which the changing gear engages the drive gear, and an actuating lever that moves in a response to the rotation of the changing gear by the drive gear. The two changing mechanisms are selectively actuable, and a single drive gear is positioned for engagement with both changing gears. Each of the two changing mechanisms has associated with it a selectively energizable electromagnetic device and a locking lever that moves into a locking position in response to movement of the respective actuating lever. Each electromagnetic device is energized upon actuation of the respective trigger means to magnetically hold the respective locking lever in its locking position. The mode changing apparatus also includes mode establishing mechanisms comprising a plurality of cooperating gears and levers that are engaged by the actuating and locking levers upon selective operation of the changing mechanisms to establish FWD, FF, REW, PAUSE and ADS (Automatic Detection of Silence) modes of operation of the tape recording/reproducing apparatus.
