Abstract
A support mechanism for a tape recorder head lever includes first and second guide bars respectively facing each end of the head lever, and positioned between the head lever and base board to slidably support the head lever. The first guide bar is fixed to either one of a strip part extending from one end of the head lever in the direction in which the head lever slides, or the base board. The second guide bar is supported for movement by a forked portion formed on either one of the other end of the head lever or the base board, thus allowing the head lever to have a certain latitude of sidewise movement as the head lever slides on the guide bars.
