ABSTRACT:
A magnetic tape sensing head cleaner disclosed has a hollow housing including a pair of housing members that are selectively latchable to each other in a closed position and releasable therefrom to permit replacement of a cleaning loop received by a track within the housing. Latching portions formed integrally with the housing members during plastic molding thereof cooperate in pairs to provide wedging latches that secure the housing members to each other in the closed position and permit repeated separation thereof for replacement of the cleaning loop. The track that receives the cleaning loop is preferably located within a cleaning loop compartment at one end of the housing and includes a drive roller, a pressure pad, and a guide loop around which the cleaning loop is driven. Adjacent another end of the housing, a storage compartment is defined for a cleaning brush, a cleaning probe, cleaning probe tips, and a cleaning fluid bottle. One of the housing members is molded from opaque plastic and includes a bottom wall, an apertured end wall through which the cleaning action by the cleaning loop takes place, side walls connected to the end and bottom walls, and an intermediate wall that connects the side walls and separates the cleaning loop and storage compartments. The other housing member is molded from clear plastic and includes a top wall and an end wall oriented in a perpendicular relationship to each other. Side edges of the top wall on the second housing member and the side walls of the first housing member mount the latching portions that are used to secure the housing members to each other.
