Magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus

摘要

In a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing information by pulling out a tape from a cassette by revolving a pair of tape pull-out members in opposite directions with a tape loading mechanism and by wrapping the tape around a rotary drum, a tape pull-out aiding member is arranged in combination with one of the tape pull-out members; and a differential mechanism is arranged between the tape pull-out aiding member and the tape pull-out member to cause the two members to revolve at different angles of revolution in such a way as to give a desired angle of inclination of the tape relative to the rotary drum. The differential mechanism is formed jointly by a slide member which is slidable in the direction of revolution, the tape pull-out aiding member being disposed at the slide member, and a positioning member which is arranged to lock the tape pull-out aiding member by restricting its movement in such a way as to cause two members to revolve at the different angles of revolution.
