ABSTRACT:
A horizontal type of open-reel magnetic tape drive unit automatically clamps a tape reel in a drive section after the reel is inserted, then separates the free end of the tape from the reel, and guides the free end of the tape along a tape transport path to be wound onto a take-up hub, and also having a tape beginning and end detection device along the path, with these separation and guidance operations being performed by a small number of high pressure air jets. Pressure sealing of the unit is unnecessary, and the overall configuration is simple and easily manufactured.
