Abstract
Tape recorder able to actuate a plurality of mechanisms, such as an ejector mechanism, a head moving mechanism, and a high-speed rotation transmission mechanism, by the turning force of the motor for transporting tape. The cam gear is rotatable by the motor for transporting tape, a rocking lever is engaged with the cam gear, and an electromagnet for EJECT motion, an ejector mechanism connected operatively to the rocking lever by the electromagnet for EJECT motion, an electromagnet for PLAY motion, and a head moving mechanism connected operatively to the rocking lever by the electromagnet for PLAY motion are also provided. The turning force of the motor is transmitted to the ejector mechanism, or the head moving mechanism through the cam gear and the rocking lever. Another tape recorder includes a cam gear, a rocking lever, a head moving mechanism, electromagnets for PLAY, FAST FORWARD and REWIND motion, a member for changing the traveling direction of tape connected operatively to the electromagnets for FAST FORWARD and REWIND motion, a rotatable member supported rotatably to the member for changing the traveling direction of tape, and a high-speed rotation transmission mechanism connected operatively to the rotatable member. The turning force of the motor is transmitted to the head moving mechanism through the cam gear and the rocking lever, and also to the high-speed rotation mechanism through the head moving mechanism and the rotatable member.
