Abstract
Disclosed is an automatic cassette loading apparatus which comprises a motor and a first sensing means for detecting when a cassette is placed in a first position to energize the motor. A counter is provided for counting clock pulses in response to the energization of the motor and generating an output signal when the counted clock pulses reach a predetermined value. A second sensing means is provided for detecting when the cassette is moved to a second, tape-operating position. The loading apparatus further includes a mechanism driven by the motor for moving the cassette from the first position to the second position and restoring the cassette to the first position and beyond to de-energize the motor when the output signal of the counter is generated prior to the detection of the cassette in the second position.
