A unidirectional traveling-surface-wave by ultrasonic oscillation is generated on a surface of an oscillator, and a magnetic tape is run in the direction opposite to the traveling direction of the surface wave by pressing the surface of the oscillator against a surface of the magnetic tape.

As an alternate to two separate video tape recorders are operated to perform dubbing or the like, the present invention provides a double video cassette tape recorder for dubbing, wherein one of two video tapes is inserted at an upper position and another tape at a lower position in the same or separate cassette by front loading, and the two tapes can be separately or simultaneously driven to record and play back using a common capstan and cylinder heads for each tape in the limited space of housing. The double video cassette tape recorder for dubbing according to the present invention does not take up space for installation, and the inside mechanism can be used commonly to conventional VCR to save cost.

A cassette type recording and/or reproducing apparatus having a chassis in which a cassette is mounted on an upper surface thereof. An upper surface of the chassis is formed with a recess in whcih a pair of reels and a gear machanism including a plurality of gears to actuate the pair of reels to rotate are mounted from an above direction, thus reducing a height dimension of the entire apparatus and achieving an easy assembly operation with fewer parts and less labor time for the assembly of the apparatus.

A tape transport cartridge is presented having a pair of brakes for the drive belt, the brakes being positioned to increase the angle of separation of the drive belt from the magnetic tape. This increased angle of separation results in improved drive of the tape, and the dual brake arrangement also establishes a more nearly constant instantaneous velocity differential for the tape packs, resulting in a lower and more constant tape tension.

An integral tape path assembly (110) includes a head subassembly (112), a buffer/guide subassembly (114) and a spaced sensor/guide subassembly (116), all mounted to a common tape path plate (118). The buffer/guide subassembly includes a buffer arm (126) which pivots about an axis shared by a fixed guide (128). A Hall-effect position sensor (186) can be mechanically calibrated via an aperture (142) in a housing (132). The speed sensor/guide subassembly includes a roller (148) which serves to guide the tape on the take-up side of the tape drive system and to drive a shaft (152) holding a speed indicator (156) for a speed sensor (158). The speed sensor/guide subassembly includes a fixed-orientation washer (206) for urging the tape against an upper flange (208) of the roller. The washer is off-center sprung to counter distorting forces engendered by the tape as it engages the roller. Accordingly, a compact tape path assembly is provided requiring a reduced number of precision alignments and minimizing sources of tape distortion.

A tape recorder device of the double cassette type wherein reproducing operation on a second tape driving mechanism can be automatically started continuously after completion of reproducing operation on a first tape driving mechanism and which is greatly improved in operability and allows operation of operating members by a low operating force. In the device, a selectively engageable member for selectively engaging with part of a reversing mechanism of a first tape driving mechanism to directly change over the reversing mechanism between a repetitive reversing condition and a one-time reversing condition is changed over to the one-time reversing condition in response to movement of a change-over operating member which brings a second tape driving mechanism into a pause condition.

A plastic cassette, having reel hub spindles and tape guides which are accurately machined inserts, is used as a tape supply and take-up container for a reel periphery driven tape transport. The reel hub spindle and the tape guide bases are accurately machined reference surfaces, and the spindles and guides are flexibly captive in the cassette shell with their reference surfaces extending below the cassette shell. Upon insertion into the transport, the reel hub spindle and tape guide bases are forced into abutment with a reference surface of the transport, causing the cassette tape path to conform to the transport tape path, substantially independent of the orientation of the plastic cassette body relative to the transport.

A strip media tensioning system is set forth for imposing drag on a moving band such as a circulating endless belt for driving reel packs for delivery of magnetic tape therebetween. More particularly, an apparatus is set forth which includes a fixed shaft. A sleeve is journalled for rotation about the shaft, the endless belt engaging and rotating the sleeve. To create drag, a visco-elastic ring is positioned between the shaft and sleeve and is compressed against the sleeve creating drag by an eccentrically disposed roller device. The eccentricity of the roller device is adjustable for altering the drag on the circulating endless belt.

The present invention involves a method and apparatus to prolong the useful life of a drive tape used in a magnetic contact printer to advance master and copy tapes past a transcribing head to transcribe the signals from the master tape onto the copy tape. The present invention provides a method for using the entire length of the drive tape even though individual segments on different master tapes may be shorter than the length of the drive tape. In the method of the present invention the drive tape is rewound after each transcription only part of the way to the beginning of that transcription. The next transcription will then require the use of a part of the drive tape not used in the previous transcription. The apparatus of the present invention uses a digital logic circuit to carry out that method. The apparatus comprises a counter that senses the length of advance of the drive tape for each transcription and detectors that provide signals to terminate the rewindings of the drive tape at the proper points.
