Abstract
An apparatus and a method for mode changing of a deck mechanism suitable for used in a compact cassette tape recorder. The apparatus includes actuating members for selectively actuating a mode switch, first restriction members for restricting rotation of the actuating members, selection members for selectively transmitting drive power in order to carry out a mode of the deck mechanism, biasing members for causing a cam assembly to initially engage with power transmission members, and second restriction members for restricting rotation of the selection members. The preferred apparatus employs a single cam gear and a single electrically operated solenoid for the mode changing operation of the cassette tape recorder and does not cause over-running of the tape out of the tape cassette in a mode changing operation.
