ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to an improved bidirectional cassette transport wherein the various operating modes can be achieved through the use of a single lever. The device is characterized in the provision of a novel coupling arrangement between the control lever and the cassette drive whereby the cassette is virtually jam-proof, is protected against damage, and a constant tension in the tape is achieved. The device is particularly suited for use as a leasable player cassette of the type frequently employed in museums for supplying explanatory background and like information in conjunction with the exhibits. The suitability of the device for such use derives from the ease with which the same may be operated, the foolproofness of its operation and the facile manner in which portions of the auditory materials may be repeated.
