ABSTRACT:
A magnetic tape device which includes a minimized number of motors and can be produced in a reduced size at a reduced cost. The magnetic tape device comprises a capstan motor having a motor shaft operatively connected to a capstan, a motor gear securely mounted on the motor shaft, a cam gear operatively connected to a drive motor to operate a tape loading mechanism, a moving gear for engaging with the motor gear to transmit rotation of the motor shaft of the capstan motor to a cassette loading mechanism, and a first pivotal lever supported for rotation around a fixed axis and having the moving gear mounted for rotation thereon. The lever is operatively associated with the cam gear such that, when the tape loading mechanism is in an inoperative position, the moving gear meshes with the motor gear to transmit rotation of the motor shaft to the cassette loading mechanism, but when the tape loading mechanism is moved to an operative position, the moving gear is brought out of meshing engagement with the motor gear.
