ABSTRACT:
A device is disclosed for cleaning the magnetic head of a recorder/reproducer apparatus having a cartridge compartment into which a tape cartridge is slid for data transfer contact with the magnetic head. The head cleaner device has a casing of approximately the same shape and size as the tape cartridge, which casing is to be slid into and out of the cartridge compartment. The casing has pivotally mounted therein a handlebar having one end projecting therefrom through an aperture in the casing. Removably mounted to the other end of the handlebar, also exposed through another aperture in the casing, is a cleaner body of a plastic foam or like material which is to be pressed against the magnetic head upon full insertion of the cleaner casing in the cartridge compartment. The user may grip the projecting end of the handlebar and move the same back and forth about its pivot for cleaning the magnetic head by the cleaner body on the other end of the handlebar.
