Magnetic recording tape driving apparatus

摘要

A magnetic recording tape driving apparatus comprises a motor, two pairs of reel shafts on which a pair of reel hubs of each of two cassette tapes are mounted, two capstans for the two cassette tapes, a head base plate supporting two magnetic heads and two pinch rollers each provided in a position corresponding to each pair of the reel shafts and movable between a first position, at which the magnetic heads and the pinch roller are all spaced apart from the magnetic tapes accommodated in the respective paired cassette tapes with the reel hubs thereof mounted on the two pairs of reel shafts, and a second position, at which the magnetic heads and the pinch rollers are all in contact with the magnetic tapes accommodated in the paired cassette tapes, and a gear train for selectively transmitting rotational power from the motor to the two capstans and the two pairs of reel shafts.
