Abstract
In a tape deck for a magnetic-tape-cassette apparatus, a magnetic head is mounted on a magnetic-head mount in which the magnetic-head mount is arranged on a carrier element mounted on a deck plate and in which the magnetic head is movable in different positions relative to a transport path of a magnetic tape for different modes of operation. The magnetic-head mount is supported on the carrier element so as to be pivotable within given limits and so as to be movable substantially in a direction approximately perpendicular to the transport path of the magnetic tape in such a manner that at the location of the transducing gap the magnetic head is in a substantially parallel alignment relative to the transport path of the magnetic tape in at least two positions.
