Endless master video tape container for use with video tape duplicator.

摘要

An endless master tape container for use with a video tape duplicator comprises a vibration plate having spaced side walls between which a tape accumulating passage is defined. The vibration plate has at one portion a tape inlet part through which an endless master tape is inserted into the tape accumulating passage. A fixed plate is arranged downstream of the vibration plate. The fixed plate has a tape outlet part through which the endless master tape is discharged to the outside from the tape accumulating passage. A vibrator is used for vibrating the vibration plate thereby to convey the endless master tape downstream from the tape inlet part toward the fixed plate. In the present invention, the width of the tape accumulating passage is gradually increased with increase of distance from the tape inlet part. <IMAGE>
