The drive mechanism is provided at a main gear thereof with a stopper gear rotatable together therewith, one of the frames is provided with a stopper engageable with the stopper gear to impede the reverse rotation of spool, and the frame is provided with an operating segment for the stopper, thereby enabling engagement and disengagement of stopper with or from the stopper gear.
