ABSTRACT:
An eject mechamism of a tape player such as an automotive stereo tape player has a change-over gear driven by a motor and adapted to be locked at predetermined rotational angular positions. The position of a head base carrying a magnetic head is determined in accordance with the rotational angular position of the change-over gear. The eject mechanism also has a mode change-over lever adapted to be controlled by a cam rotatable together with the change-over gear so as to be set to one of first, second and third positions. The mode change-over lever, when set to the first or second position, selects one of a pair of pinch rollers to be put into contact with associated capstan, thus selecting forward or reverse running of the tape. The eject mechanism further has an eject timing member for conducting a switching operation to allow transmission of the power of the motor to an eject actuating mechanism when the mode change-over lever is set to the third position.
