Abstract
A reel driving apparatus for a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus provides the capability of easily changing the operational mode between a reproducing mode and a reverse reproducing mode without departing a pinch roller from a shaft of a capstan motor. The reel driving apparatus includes a reversely rotatable motor, a slip mechanism for receiving a rotational force from the motor and generating a predetermined torque in cooperation with a predetermined slip, a rotational force relay unit connected to the slip mechanism for receiving the rotational force from the slip mechanism, and a switching unit for performing an operation in order for the rotational force relay unit to be selectively connected with either a supply reel driving unit or a take-up reel driving unit, whereby the rotational force from the slip mechanism is selectively transferred to either the supply reel driving unit or the take-up reel driving unit by switching the rotational force relay unit.
