摘要:
In a rotary head drum of a recording/reproduction apparatus, for smoothly holding a magnetic tape over a guide step provided on a lower drum to guide the magnetic tape, part of a chamfer formed in the guide step is formed as a large chamfer in which a chamfered amount is larger than that of the remaining part of the chamfer. With the provision of the large chamfer, even if the lower edge of the magnetic tape deviates from the guide step when the tape is wound over or unwound from the drum, damages of the magnetic tape can be prevented. Therefore, the position and attitude control of tape withdrawing members can be greatly simplified and the magnetic tape can always run stably while being restricted in its position by the guide step. In the process of machining a tape running surface on the drum, by increasing the feed distance of a blade in the part of the chamfer where the large chamfer is to be formed by chamfering the guide step with a large chamfered amount, in comparison with the feed distance set in the remaining part of the chamfer, the large chamfer and the small chamfer can be both machined at the same time, resulting in simplified machining steps.
摘要:
In a tape loading mechanism for recording and/or playback equipment in which a magnetic tape is drawn from a cassette to be wound around a cylinder having a head at a predetermined angle, an elongated member for moving drawing members to draw the magnetic tape from the cassette is disposed and extends in a space between a rotating shaft of a cylinder motor for rotating the cylinder identical with a rotational shaft of the cylinder motor and a capstan motor for rotating a capstan shaft identical with the capstan shaft which feeds the magnetic tape together with a pinch roller.
