The brake levers 180, 182 further have inwardly extending protrusions 186, 188, and the protrusions 188 have a stepped portion 190 which is partially widened. A second motor 192 for selectively driving each reel stand is mounted at the bottom of the base plate 22, and a pulley 194 extends above the base plate through a hole 196 formed in the base plate 22, as shown in FIG. ing.

An idler 202 having a rubber-lined large diameter portion 198 and a small diameter portion 200 is rotatably fitted loosely onto a first shaft 206 planted on a sliding plate 204 that is slidably disposed on a substrate. Due to the displacement of the sliding plate 204 in the direction of arrow B, the pulley 194 and the supply reel stand 38 or the take-up reel stand 4
Crowds squeeze in between 0 and 0. A braking member 212 is disposed on the sliding plate 204 so as to be able to slide while being guided by a second shaft 208 planted on the sliding plate 204 and a bent portion 210.
The braking member 212 receives a biasing force in the direction of arrow A by the ring spring 216 applied between the second shaft 208 and the bent portion 214 of the braking member 212, but the lower braking portion 218 Since it is in contact with the portion 200, the state shown in FIG. 2 or 3 is maintained. As shown in FIG. 5, a third shaft 220 installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 204 extends below the substrate through an elongated hole 222 formed in the substrate 22.
It engages with an elongated hole 226 formed in an idler drive rod 224 slidably disposed on the underside of the base plate 22. a pair of pins 228 planted on the idler drive rod 224;
230 is guided through elongated holes 232 and 234 formed in the substrate. A first bent portion 236 formed at the other end extends above the board through a square hole 238 formed in the board, and engages and disengages with the hook 118 of the rotating arm 120 described above. The second bent portion 2 of the third shaft 220 and the idler drive rod 224
A tension spring 242 is applied between the idler drive rod 224 and the slide plate 204, so that the idler drive rod 224 and the sliding plate 204 move as one unit in the state shown in FIG. 2 or 5. The main actuating plate 244 is guided by guides 246 and 248 planted on the base plate 22 and is slidably arranged in the directions of arrows A and B, and is supported by a tension spring 250.

The bent portion 252 of the main actuating plate 244 is connected to the first plunger 256 and the pin 2 attached to the base plate 22 by the mounting plate 254.
58. The first step 260 of the main operating plate 244 is connected to the second pin 60 of the pinch roller lever 54 described above, the second step 262 is connected to the wire spring 126 described above, and the protrusion 264 is connected to the third pin 88 of the drawer lever 70. They are in contact with each other. A U-shaped notch 266 formed in the main actuating plate 244 has a bending portion 268 that includes a rotating shaft 270 of a roller 270.
An auxiliary arm 274 is fitted on the main operating plate 244 so as to be rotatable and slidable, and a tension spring 278 is inserted between the guide pin 276 and the bent portion 268. However, when the first plunger 256 is not in operation, the roller 270 rests on the end surface of the square hole 280 provided in the base plate 22, as shown in FIG.
A pin 282 erected at the tip of the pitch roller lever 74 is configured to be locked at a position closer to the substrate than the pitch roller lever 54 . The auxiliary actuating plate 284 is a guide 28 that is installed on the base plate 22.

2, the second plunger 294 is attached to the base plate 22 by
and are connected by a pin 296. As shown in FIG. 5, the first plunger 256 and the second plunger 294 are approximately the same size, and are similar to the supply reel stand 38 and the take-up reel stand 40.
They are placed at symmetrical positions on the left and right with respect to the center line. A tension spring 300 is placed between the second bent portion 298 of the auxiliary actuating plate 284 and the base plate 22, and biases the auxiliary actuating plate 284 in the direction of arrow A.

Moreover, the shaft 302 and the shaft 30 are installed on the auxiliary operating plate 284.
A first arm 306 and a second arm 306 are rotatably attached to each arm 306.
An arm 308 is loosely fitted. A pin 310 is installed at the tip of the first arm 306, and a tension spring 312 is hung between the other end and the second arm 308, and receives a clockwise rotating force as shown in FIG. Since the side surface is in contact with the third pin 88 of the drawer lever 70, the state shown in FIG. 5 is maintained. The second arm 308 is subjected to a counterclockwise rotational force in FIG. Keep the state as shown.

The side surface 316 of the second arm 308 is connected to and disengages from the pin 144 which is mounted on the latch release arm 130 and extends below the substrate, and the protrusion 318 is connected to the rod 164 described above.
cam 166. A holder lock plate 324 is arranged so as to be slidable in the directions of arrows A and B guided by guides 320 and 322 set on the base plate 22.
When the holder 32 is mounted under the biasing force in the direction of the arrow B by the tension spring 326 hung between the rod and the holder 32, the tip enters the notch 168 of the rod 164 as shown in FIG. Regulate rotation in direction.

Bent portion 328 of holder lock plate 324 and second arm 3
A distal end projection 314 of No. 08 is engaged and disengaged. Also, the stepped portion 330 of the holder lock plate 324 and the eject button 158
When the eject button 158 is fully pushed toward the board side, the holder lock plate 324 is displaced in the direction of arrow A by the inclined surface of the second cam portion 156, and the tip and rod 164 are in an engaged/disengaged relationship. The configuration is such that the connection with the notch 168 is released. The lever 332 is rotatably and loosely fitted onto a shaft 334 mounted on the base plate 22, and has a stepped square hole 336 approximately in the center, into which the pin 310 of the first arm 306 described above is inserted. is inserted, and when the pull-out lever 70 is in the position shown in FIG. It is configured to do so.

A pin 338 is installed at the tip of the lever 332, and the pin 338 fits into a hole (not shown) provided in the idler drive rod 224 to move the idler drive rod 224 in the directions of arrows A and B. In addition, the board 22
It extends upward through the square hole 238 of the board and is configured to engage and disengage with the protrusions 186, 188 of the brake levers 180, 182 mentioned above, and is used for attaching and detaching the brake lever to the supply reel stand 38 and take-up reel stand 40. control. Next, the operation of the tape recorder having the above structure will be explained with reference to the timing chart shown in FIG. 12 and each drawing.

In the timing chart in Figure 12, the operating line of each element is LO.
Although the w position and the high position are written separately, the LOW position indicates a non-operating state, and the High position indicates an operating state. Hi in the section of pinch roller lever (drawer lever)
There are two stages in the gtl position, but as will be described later, the operating positions are somewhat different, so they are written separately. Similarly, in the section for the second motor, there are two levels at the High position, but as will be described later, there are two types of applied voltages, so we have differentiated between low-voltage operation and high-voltage operation. Also, the description of the first motor is omitted assuming that it continues to operate. In the mode section, since the operational states of the mechanical parts are the same in recording and reproducing operations, the section on recording operation is omitted. In addition, as will be described later, the fast-forwarding operation and the rewinding operation are the same, except that the rotation directions of the second motors are opposite to each other and the direction of transport of the magnetic tape is reversed, and the operating conditions of the other mechanical parts are the same. This section has been omitted. Loading operation: When the holder 32 into which the force set 2 is inserted is attached to the tape recorder, the positioning pins 34 and 36 enter the positioning holes 18 and 20 of the force set 2, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, and the force set 2 is loaded. Perform positioning.

Also, the pinch roller 56 and the protrusion 64 on the pinch roller lever 54 are in the U-shaped groove 12 of the force set 2, and the pull-out lever 70
The guide roller 76 and the protrusion 82 enter into the other U-shaped groove 10. On the other hand, a rod 164 connected to the holder 32 with a pin 162 is guided through a square hole 170 provided in the substrate 22 and enters below the substrate.

When the holder 32 is pushed in until the force set 2 is in the correct operating position, the tip of the holder lock plate 324, which is biased in the direction of the arrow B by the tension spring 326, will fit into the notch 168 formed in the rod 164, so it is difficult to remove it by hand. Even if the holder 32 is released, the holder 32 remains locked at this position. When the holder 32 is locked in the operating position, a switch (not shown) is activated and the second plunger 294 operates as shown in FIG. to move in the direction. The first arm 306, which is rotatably loosely fitted onto the shaft 302 installed on the auxiliary actuation plate 284, also moves in the direction of arrow B, and in this state, the pin 310 moves the end surface of the wide part of the stepped square hole 336 in the direction of arrow B. direction and rotate the lever 332 counterclockwise in FIG. 6 about the shaft 334. Move lever 3
Since the pin 338 provided at the tip of the idler 202 also moves in the direction of arrow B, the idler drive rod 224, sliding plate 204, and braking member 212 move as one in the direction of arrow B, and the large diameter portion 198 of the idler 202 moves in the direction of arrow B. When the slide plate 204 and the braking member 212 come into contact with the river 94, the displacement in the direction of arrow B is stopped, but the idler drive rod 224 is further displaced downward, so that the tension spring 242 is eventually stretched, and this force is The large diameter portion 198 of the idler 202 is pressed against the pulley 194. Furthermore, the amount of displacement of the pin 338 in the direction of arrow B is set so that the step 190 formed on the protrusion 188 of the brake lever 182 is slightly displaced in the direction of arrow B, as shown in FIG. 174 in the counterclockwise direction in FIG. 7, the brake of the take-up reel stand 40 is released (the brake of the supply reel stand 38 remains in operation). As shown in the time chart in Figure 12 and Figures 7 and 8, there is a slight delay (approximately 0.1
~0.2 seconds) The first plunger 256 operates, and after a further delay (approximately 0.1 seconds after the first plunger 256 operates)
~0.2 seconds) The second motor 192
It is designed to rotate clockwise in the figure.

When the first plunger 256 operates, the main operating plate 244 moves in the direction of arrow A against the tension spring 250. Therefore, the first step portion 260 of the main operating plate 244 moves the second pin 60 of the pinch roller lever 54 in the direction of arrow A, so that the pinch roller lever 54 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 7 about the shaft 52. The pinch roller 50 pulls the magnetic tape 4 out of the force set 2, but the capstan 46 and the pinch roller 5
0 is set so that it does not come into contact with it. At this time, the protrusion 64 opens the lid 16 of the force set 2. Also, the protrusion 264 of the main operating plate 244
similarly moves the third pin 88 of the pull-out lever 70 in the direction of arrow A, so the pull-out lever 70 rotates clockwise in FIG. At the same time as the magnetic tape 4 is pulled out to the tape guide 102, the pad 80 pulls the magnetic tape 4 to the spring 104.
It is designed to be crimped by the urging force of. At this time, the protrusion 82
then open the lid 14 of power set 2. Pinch roller lever 54
When the second pin 60 moves in the direction of arrow A, the lock plate 14
2 is displaced to the right in FIG. 7 by the biasing force of the spring 136.
Therefore, the latch plate release arm 130 is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 7 about the shaft 132 via the pin 144. Also, since the hiso 144 moves to the left in Fig. 8, the second arm 30
8 is a positional relationship in which the side surface 316 is pushed by the pin 144 and rotates clockwise in FIG. become. On the other hand, as the main actuating plate 244 moves in the direction of arrow A, the auxiliary arm 274 also moves in the direction of arrow A, and the roller 270 enters the square hole 280 provided in the base plate 22, and the auxiliary arm 274 moves counterclockwise in FIG. The upper part of the pin 282 planted at the tip rotates until it touches the lower surface of the pinch roller lever 54, resulting in the state shown in FIG. 7. Next, when the second motor 192 and pulley 194 rotate clockwise in FIG.
98 is pressed against the pulley 194, and the idler 2
Since the small diameter portion 200 of No. 02 receives a braking force from the braking portion 218 of the braking member 212, the sliding plate 204 is eventually rotated counterclockwise in FIG. Large diameter portion 198 of powered idler 202
is approximately 115 mm between the pulley 194 and the take-up reel stand 40.
Since the rotation of the pulley 194 is transmitted to the take-up reel stand 40 at the biting angle of the pulley 194, the take-up side reel 8 rotates clockwise in FIG. The magnetic tape 4 is wound up so that there is no slack when it is pulled out of the set 2.

Thereafter, as shown in the time chart of FIG. 12, the first plunger 256, the second plunger 294, and the second motor 192 are automatically de-energized.

When the first plunger 256 is de-energized, the main actuating plate 2
44 is returned to the position shown in FIG. 5 by the tension spring 250, and the pinch roller lever 54 is also biased by the tension spring 92 in the direction of returning to its original position, but as shown in FIG. When the magnetic tape 4 is displaced in the B direction, the second pin 60 comes into contact with the protrusion 146 of the displaced lock plate 142, and the pitch roller 50 maintains the position in which the magnetic tape 4 is pulled out. On the other hand, the pull-out lever 70 is also supported by a tension spring 92 on the shaft 6.
The guide roller 76 similarly rotates the magnetic tape 4 in the counterclockwise direction in FIG.
Keep it in the position where it is pulled out. In other words, the pinch roller 50 and the guide roller 76 are locked at a position where the magnetic tape 4 is slightly returned from the position where it is fully pulled out from the force set 2, so that the second motor 192 can sufficiently take up the slack as described above. The magnetic tape 4 stretched on the tape 4 will slacken a little.

At the same time, when the power to the second plunger 294 is cut off, the auxiliary actuating plate 284 returns in the direction of the arrow A by the force of the tension spring 300, and the first arm 306 and the second arm 308 also move in the direction indicated by the arrow A.
Return to direction.

Since the second arm 308 is rotated clockwise in FIG. 5 by the pin 144 as described above, the tip protrusion 314 cannot displace the holder lock plate 324.

As the first arm 306 moves in the direction of arrow A, the lever 332 also rotates clockwise in FIG. The rod 224, sliding plate 204, and brake member 212 return to their original positions as shown in FIG.
At this time, the idler 202, which was inserted between the pulley 194 and the take-up reel stand 40, is also returned to its original position by a cam (not shown) as shown in FIG. Also, since the pin 338 returns in the direction of arrow A, the brake lever 18
2 rotates clockwise in FIG. 9 about the shaft 174, and the brake shoe 178 comes into contact with the take-up reel stand 40 to apply a braking force. When the first arm 306 on the auxiliary actuating plate 284 moves in the direction of arrow A and returns to its original position (the position shown in FIG. 5), the third pin 88 of the drawer lever 70 remains moved in the direction of arrow A. Since the first arm 306 is in this state, the first arm 306 is rotated clockwise in FIG. It is important to note that the relationship is such that At the same time, the second motor 192 is also de-energized.

In this way, the magnetic tape 4 remains automatically pulled out from the force set 2, and the tape recorder comes to a halt as shown in FIG. Incidentally, instead of rotating the take-up reel stand 40 in order to take up the slack in the pulled-out magnetic tape 4, the motor 192 may be reversed to rotate the supply reel stand 38. At this time, the protrusion 1 of the brake lever 180
A stepped portion is provided toward 86 to release the braking force of the supply reel stand 38. Reproducing (recording) operation: Since the operational state of the mechanical parts is the same in the reproducing operation and the recording operation, the reproducing operation will be explained.

When the regeneration switch (not shown) is pressed from the stopped state in FIG. 9, the first plunger 256 and second motor 192 are turned ON and then (approximately second plunger 294 turns ON and enters the state shown in FIG. 10. When the first plunger 256 turns ON, the main actuating plate 244 moves in the direction of arrow A, so that the protrusion 264
rotates the pull-out lever 70 through the third pin 88 in the clockwise direction in FIG. Add the required tension. On the other hand, since the auxiliary arm 274 also moves integrally with the main actuating plate 244 in the direction of the arrow A, the roller 270 is inserted into the square hole 280 provided in the base plate 22.
The auxiliary arm 274 is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 3 by the tension spring 278. This auxiliary arm 274
The rotational movement of the pinch roller lever 54 is almost the same as the loading movement described above, but the difference is that the pinch roller lever 54
is locked in the advanced position in the direction of arrow A, so the upper part of the pin 282 installed at the tip of the auxiliary arm 274 does not touch the bottom surface of the pinch roller lever 54 and the auxiliary arm 274
rotates to a position parallel to the main operating plate 244, and when the main operating plate 244 further moves in the direction of arrow A, the auxiliary arm 2
The side surface of the pin 282 of 74 rotates the pinch roller lever 54 in the direction of arrow A and presses the pinch roller 50 against the capstan 46 with the magnetic tape 4 in between, so that the magnetic tape 4 is held in contact with each magnetic head while being pressed against the capstan 46. It is transferred at a constant speed to the right in Figure 10. In this state, the main operating plate 244 and the auxiliary arm 274 move relative to each other in the direction in which the tension spring 278 extends, so that the force of the tension spring 278 presses the pinch roller 50 against the capstan 46. As the main actuating plate 244 moves in the direction of arrow A, the second step portion 262 also moves in the direction of arrow A, so that the rotation arm 120, whose rotation was restricted by the wire spring 126, rotates the shaft 116 by the tension spring 124. The hook 118 and idler drive rod 224 are rotated counterclockwise around the center to the state shown in FIG.
The engagement position relationship with the first bent portion 236 is severed.

Next, a little later (about 0.1 to 0.2 seconds in terms of time), the second
The plunger 294 turns ON, and the auxiliary actuating plate 284 and the first
Arm 306 and second arm 308 also move in the direction of arrow B.

What should be noted at this time is that as mentioned above, the third pin 88 of the drawer lever 70 is in a position displaced in the direction of arrow A, so
The pin 310 of the arm 306 is inserted into the stepped square hole 3 of the lever 332.
It is located at the narrow part of 36. That is, the amount of displacement of the first arm 306 in the direction of arrow B according to the second plunger 294 is the same as that during the loading operation described above, but the lever 332
The amount of rotation of the pin 338 increases, and therefore the amount of displacement of the pin 338 in the direction of arrow B also increases. When the idler drive rod 224 moves in the direction of arrow B, the pulley 194 of the second motor 192 is rotating clockwise in FIG.
94, and the sliding plate 204 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 10 about the third shaft 220. Therefore idler 2
The large diameter portion 198 of 02 is connected to the pulley 194 and the take-up reel stand 4.
The magnetic tape 4 fed out by the capstan 46 and the pinch roller 50 is transferred to the force set 2. Wind it up within 2. pin 33
8 moves in the direction of arrow B, the protrusion 188 of the brake lever 182 is pressed and the brake lever 182 is not only rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 10 increases, the protrusion 186 of the brake lever 180 is also pressed and the brake lever 180 is rotated clockwise in FIG.
The braking force is released. Further, the pin 38 is connected to the brake member 21
Since the rear end of 2 is pressed against the ring spring 216, the 10th
As shown in the figure, the small diameter portion 200 of the idler 202 and the braking portion 2
18 is disengaged and the braking force applied to the idler 202 is eliminated, so that the rotational torque of the pulley 194 is efficiently transmitted to the take-up reel stand 40. Note that as the idler/drive rod 224 moves in the direction of arrow B, the first bent portion 236 also moves in the direction of arrow B, but as described above, the rotating arm 120 rotates as shown in FIG. Therefore, the first bent portion 236 and the hook 118 cannot engage with each other.

In this manner, a reproducing operation state as shown in FIG. 10 is performed. When the stop switch (not shown) is pressed from this state, the first plunger 256, the second plunger 294, and the second
Since the power to the motor 192 is cut off, each actuating plate and member returns to its original position by the restoring force of the spring and comes to a stopped state as shown in FIG.

Rapid forward operation, from the stopped state shown in Figure 9 to the rapid forward switch (not shown)
When pressed, the second plunger 256 moves to 0 as shown in FIG.
At the same time, the second motor 192 rotates clockwise in FIG. 11 with an applied voltage higher than that during the regeneration operation, resulting in the state shown in FIG.

When the second plunger 294 turns ON, the braking force on the supply reel stand 38 and the take-up reel stand 40 is released by the pin 338 in the same manner as explained in the section of the regeneration operation. Also, the large diameter portion 198 of the idler 202 takes up the rotation of the pulley 194 and directs the rotation of the pulley 194 to the reel hub 8 of the cassette 2 according to the reel stand 40.
11 in the clockwise direction to wind up the magnetic tape. At this time as well, the pin 338 connects the rear end of the braking member 212 to the ring spring 216.
Since the small diameter portion 200 of the idler 202 is pressed against the
Since the engagement with the braking portion 218 is disengaged and the braking force applied to the idler 202 is lost, the rotational torque of the pulley 194 is efficiently transmitted to the take-up reel stand 40. Incidentally, since the voltage applied to the second motor 192 is higher than during the reproduction operation, the torque and rotational speed for winding the magnetic tape 4 are naturally higher. On the other hand, since the first plunger 256 does not operate, the main operating plate 25
4 does not change.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, the rotation of the rotating arm 120 by the tension spring 124 is restricted by the engagement between the wire spring 126 and the second step portion 262 of the main operating plate 244.
As shown in FIG. 11, when the first bent portion 236 of the idler drive rod 224 moves in the direction of arrow B, the first bent portion 236 and the hook 118 of the rotating arm 120 engage with each other. The first bending portion 236 moves the rotating arm 120 along the arrow B
As a result, the sliding plate 114 moves in the direction of arrow B against the force of the tension spring 124, and the pair of shift pins 110 planted on the sliding plate 114 separates the magnetic tape 4 from each magnetic head. . In this way, the magnetic tape 4
The magnetic tape 4 can be rapidly fed onto the take-up reel hub without the magnetic tape coming into contact with each magnetic head. When a stop switch (not shown) is pressed in the above state, the second plunger 256 and the second motor 192 are de-energized, resulting in the stopped state shown in FIG. 9.

Rewinding operation: The rewinding operation is almost the same as the fast forwarding operation described above, except that the second motor is rotating in the opposite direction.
The large diameter portion 198 of the idler 202 enters between the pulley 94 and the supply reel stand 38, rotates the supply reel stand 38 counterclockwise in FIG. The detailed explanation will be omitted since the only point is how to wind it up.

Queue operation; The queue operation is to search for a position signal (address signal) written on the magnetic tape 4 in advance by running the magnetic tape 4 at high speed, and when the queue head 96 detects the position signal, stop the tape recorder. This is an operation for locating the position of the magnetic tape 4 in order to set the magnetic tape 4 to the playback state, and is an extremely convenient function for locating the beginning of a desired song when several programs are recorded on the magnetic tape 4.

From the stopped state shown in Figure 9, the key switch (not shown)
When you press the first plunger 256 as shown in FIG.
is turned on, and at the same time, the same high voltage as during the fast forward operation is applied to the second motor 192. A little later (about 0.1-0.2 seconds)
The second plunger 294 is turned on. This state is almost the same as the regeneration operation described above, but the only difference is that a higher voltage is applied to the second motor 192 than during the regeneration operation. From this state, as shown in FIG. 12, the first plunger 256 is de-energized, so the contact between the capstan 46 and the pinch roller 50 is cut off, and the pinch roller lever 54 and the drawer lever 70 are moved as shown in FIG. In the stopped state shown, the large diameter portion 198 of the idler 202 is
94 and the take-up reel 40 - January 9
The rotation of the magnetic tape 4 is transmitted to the take-up reel stand 40.
is wound onto the winding side reel hub 8 at high speed.

This condition is very similar to the fast-forward operation described above, but since the first plunger 256 is operated and then the second plunger 294 is operated, the first fold of the idler drive rod 224 is reversed as explained in the regeneration operation section. The curved portion 236 and the hook 118 of the pivot arm 120 do not engage. Therefore, since the shift pin 110 also does not move in the direction of arrow B, the magnetic tape 4
is wound onto the take-up reel hub 8 at high speed while contacting each magnetic head. In this way, when the cue head 96 detects a desired signal recorded on the magnetic tape 4, the tape recorder is configured to switch to a stop state or a playback state. In the above explanation, the magnetic tape 4 is fed at high speed in the fast forward direction, but if the rotation direction of the second motor 192 is reversed, the magnetic tape 4 can be fed at high speed in the unwinding direction and the same operation can be performed. it is obvious.

Eject operation: When the eject push button 158 is pushed toward the board against the compression spring 160 from the stopped state shown in FIG.
8 is pushed in the direction of arrow A, so the latch release arm 130
The pin 144 rotates clockwise around the shaft 132 in FIG.
locking plate 1 connected to unlatching arm 130 at
42 moves to the left in FIG. In the clockwise direction in FIG. 9, the pull-out lever 70 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 9 about the shaft 68 and returns to its original position as shown in FIG.

As both levers return to their original positions, a switch (not shown) is activated and the second plunger 29 is activated as shown in FIG.
4 and the second motor 192 operate to rotate clockwise in FIG. Pinch roller lever 54 and drawer lever 7
When the second plunger 294 operates in the position shown in FIG. 2, the auxiliary actuating plate 284 moves in the direction of arrow B against the tension spring 300. The first arm 306, which is rotatably loosely fitted onto the shaft 302 mounted on the auxiliary actuation plate 284, also moves in the direction of arrow B. In other words, as shown in Figure 6, the first
Since the pin 310 planted on the arm 306 is located in the wide part of the stepped square hole 336 of the lever 332, the stroke of the pin 338 becomes small, releasing the braking force only on the take-up reel stand 40, and releasing the braking force on the idler 202. Large diameter portion 198
The reel 94 enters between the reel 94 and the take-up reel stand 40, transmits the rotation of the reel 94 to the take-up reel stand 40, and rotates the take-up reel 8 clockwise in FIG. When the pinch roller lever 50 and the pull-out lever 70 return to their original positions, the slackened magnetic tape 4 is wound onto the reel hub 8 on the winding side. At this time, the braking force of the supply reel stand 38 has not been released, so when the magnetic tape 4 is stretched within the force set 2, the take-up reel stand 38 cannot rotate any further. The second arm 308, which is rotatably and loosely fitted onto the shaft 304 set on the one-way auxiliary actuation plate 284, also moves in the direction of arrow B, so that the connection between the tip protrusion 314 and the bent portion 328 of the holder lock plate 324 is prevented. When the second arm 308 is out of alignment, the second arm 308 rotates slightly counterclockwise in FIG.
Keep the state as shown.

Next (approximately 0.1 to 0.3 seconds) as shown in Figure 12, the second
When the power to the plunger 294 is cut off, the auxiliary actuating plate 284 returns from the state shown in FIG. 6 in the direction of arrow A by the tension spring 300, and the idler 1 drive rod 224 also returns to its original position shown in FIG.

The idler 202 is also returned to the state shown in FIG. 2 by a cam (not shown), and the brake lever 182 is brought into contact with the take-up reel stand 40 as shown in FIG. On the other hand, the pin 144 is attached to the second arm 30 as shown in FIG.
When the second arm 308 returns in the direction of arrow A from the state shown in FIG. Since it is displaced in the direction, rod 164
The tip of the holder lock plate 324 is removed from the notch 168 of the holder 32, and the holder 32 is rotated clockwise in FIG. do.

Rod 16 connected to holder 32 with pin 162
4 is also guided by the square hole 170 and moves to the right in FIG.
04, the engagement between the tip protrusion 314 and the bent portion 328 of the holder lock plate 324 is released, and the tip of the holder lock plate 324 hits the side surface of the rod 164 due to the biasing force of the tension spring 326. It moves in the direction of arrow B until it stops. Then, when the holder 32 is mounted again, the tip enters into the notch 168 as shown in FIG. 5 to lock the holder 32 in the mounting position (operating position). In addition, instead of winding the pulled-out magnetic tape 4 onto the reel hub 8 on the take-up side, the motor 192 is reversed and the magnetic tape 4 is wound on the reel hub 6 on the supply side.
It can also be rolled up. At this time, the brake lever is 180
A stepped portion is provided on the protrusion 186 to release the braking force of the supply reel stand 38.

The eject operation described above is performed when electricity is supplied to the data recorder.

However, if the supply of electricity to the tape recorder is cut off for some reason in the stopped state shown in FIG. The stepped portion 138 is pushed in the direction of arrow A by the inclined surface of the portion 154, and the latch release arm 130 rotates clockwise in FIG. As described above, the pinch roller lever 54 and the pull-out lever 70 return to their original states shown in FIG. 2. Even if a switch (not shown) is turned on this time, the second plunger 294 does not operate and the holder lock plate 324 does not move, so the holder 32 remains locked forever. Therefore, when the eject button 158 is pushed further toward the board side, the inclined part of the second cam part 156 moves the stepped part 330 of the holder lock plate 324 in the direction of arrow A, and the lock of the holder 32 is released in the same manner as described above. It is structured as follows.
In this explanation, the lock of the pinch roller lever 54 and the lock of the holder 32 are sequentially released by the push stroke of the eject push button 158, but the first push-in operation locks the pinch roller lever 54, and the second push-in operation locks the pinch roller lever 54. It is also possible to unlock the holder 32.

As described above, the magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus of the present invention includes a pair of reel stands that engage with an integral reel hub in a force set and rotate integrally, and that at least one of the pair of reel stands is connected to a magnetic tape. a magnetic head installed outside the force set; and a first position within the force set and a second position for drawing the magnetic tape out of the force set and applying it to the magnetic head. a magnetic tape pull-out means that moves back and forth between the magnetic tape pull-out means; and a locking means that locks the magnetic tape pull-out means from moving toward the first position at a third position between the first position and the second position. wherein the magnetic tape pull-out means moves from the first position to the second position and the rotary drive means operates to apply tension to the magnetic tape, and then returns the magnetic tape pull-out means to the third position. Since the tension of the magnetic tape is eased, even if the magnetic tape is left pulled out for a long time, the magnetic tape will not be scratched by the pull-out member or the like, thereby improving its commercial value.

In the embodiment, the magnetic tape is pulled out from inside the force set by the magnetic tape pull-out means, and then the rotary drive means is operated to take up the slack of the pulled-out magnetic tape. The same effect can be obtained even if the present invention is applied to a device configured to take up the slack of the magnetic tape being pulled out by operating the rotation 1 drive means while pulling out the magnetic tape from inside the force set using the pulling means. It is something.
