ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for attachment to a recording machine of the type in which a printed record is made on a continuous strip of paper, such as a paper tape, traveling over a rotating platen wherein the tape is fed into the machine from a tape roll. The apparatus comprises a support frame having a pair of laterally spaced frame members which are interconnected in such a manner that the distance between the members may be selectively adjusted to accommodate tapes of varying widths. The frame members have spaced spindles which mount a feed roll that supplies the paper tape to the recorder machine, while a second pair of spaced spindles are carried by the frame members for rotatably mounting a take-up reel. The end of the tape passing through the recording machine is attached to the take-up reel in such a manner that the tape may be rewound thereon. Means carried by the frame members bias the take-up reel and the feed roll toward one another such that as tape is withdrawn from the feed roll, the frictional engagement with the take-up reel rotates the same in such a manner that the tape leaving the recording machine may be rewound for reuse. In one embodiment of the invention means are provided for selectively cutting and/or splicing the paper tape after it leaves the recording machine.
