ABSTRACT:
A VCR player tape cartridge reinsertion device for automatically reinserting a conventional tape cartridge back into a tape input slot in a conventional VCR player after the conventional tape cartridge has rewound and been partially ejected therefrom so as to allow the conventional tape cartridge to automatically record continuously without the need for an endless tape. The device includes a platform, a motor, an upright shaft, and at least one arm. The platform is positioned in close proximity to the tape input slot. The motor is disposed in the platform and has a shaft that extends vertically upwardly therefrom. The upright shaft is vertically-oriented and operatively connected to the shaft of the motor for rotation therewith. The at least one arm extends transversely outwardly from the upright shaft, and when rotated by the motor rotating the upright shaft, contacts and reinserts the conventional tape cartridge back into the tape input slot after the conventional tape cartridge has rewound and been partially ejected therefrom so as to allow the conventional tape cartridge to automatically record continuously without the need for the endless tape.
