An engaging groove partis provided at the outer circumferential edge of a rotorof an outer-rotor type motor directly connected to the main shaftof a drum, and on the other hand, a drum locking deviceis provided directly below the shaft. The drum locking deviceis constructed so that a lock pin moves up and down in response to rotation of a torque motor, and when the lock pin advances and fits into the groove of the engaging groove pan, the position of the drumis fixed. Thereby, the stopping position of the drum can be fixed with a simple construction.

A polyester composition includes a ligand capable of coordinating to a metal or metal ion, wherein the ligand includes at least one donor atom selected from the group consisting of a nitrogen atom, a sulfur atom, and an oxygen atom. Consequently, it is possible to inactivate a metal catalyst which adversely affects heat resistance. As a result, it is possible to obtain polyester compositions and films having excellent heat resistance, colorability, and weathering resistance. Moreover, in the process of producing a polyester, by separating and recovering a catalyst by adding a ligand which is capable of coordinating to a metal or metal ion and which includes at least one donor atom selected from the group consisting of a nitrogen atom, a sulfur atom, and an oxygen atom, it is possible to improve the heat resistance of the polyester composition.

A recording-reproduction system wherein a reel chassis provided with a pair of reel supports is slidably mounted on a main chassis having a head cylinder. A power shaft drivingly rotatable by a loading motor is supported on the main chassis rotatably and axially movably and coupled to a mode lever which is restrained from pivotal movement depending on the slidingly moved position of the reel chassis. The rotation of the power shaft reciprocatingly moves the reel chassis. The axial movement of the power shaft pivotally moves the mode lever, whereby a pinch roller is pressed against a capstan.
