A ratchet wheel is connected to the take-up shaft to rotate therewith, and an annular cam member is connected to the take-up shaft through a speed reduction mechanism. The cam member has a first group of projections formed thereon. A switching arm is pivotally arranged in such a manner that a second group of projections formed thereon are engageable with the first group of projections. A toggle spring is used for biasing the switching arm in a given direction. A pivotal tooth member is actuated by the switching arm and engageable with the ratchet wheel. The pivotal tooth member is biased by a spring in a direction away from the ratchet wheel.
