Abstract
A tape recorder with a motor-containing-drive device for normal forward running (record or playback) and for fast rewinding of the recording tape, and a carrier plate on which the magnetic heads are arranged. The carrier plate is displaceable in its plane with the corresponding drive device of the tape by operating elements for setting of the operating modes 'record' or 'playback,' whereby by the displacement of the carrier plate into its operating position, a switch, which sets the motor of the drive device in operation, is closed and by which the magnetic heads are brought into engagement on the recording tape. The operating elements for the fast rewinding are set for a displacement of the carrier plate however only over a portion of its displacement path. The switch for the motor current is coupled with the carrier plate such that it closes with the displacement of the carrier plate over this portion of its displacement path in the direction of the operating position of the carrier plate.
