<p>A reel-locking device for a video cassette (10). One or more stationary teeth (38a, 38b, 38c, 38d, 38e, 38f) are positioned to engage corresponding teeth (22a, 22b) on the perimeter of the video cassette tape reel (16a, 16b). When the video cassette is inserted into a recorder, the recorder causes the reel to be raised above the effective height of the stationary tooth to disengage the reel from the tooth and permit rotation thereof.</p> |
