ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed in the present application an apparatus for staking to a leader block the trailing end of a length of magnetic tape wound on a reel of a substantially closed cartridge. The leader block is sized and shaped to fit into and close an opening in the wall of the cartridge and later when the cartridge is in use to provide a means by which the tape may be grasped to be withdrawn from the cartridge. The present apparatus is mounted on a movable platform which permits its withdrawal to a retracted loading position out of the way of a cartridge loading or winding operation. In its retracted position, the apparatus is provided with a short length of rod to be used later for securing the trailing end to the block by staking the rod length with the tape end into an appropriately sized slot in the leader block. In addition to a nest for receiving a rod length in position for a future staking operation, the present apparatus includes a staking punch and devices for advancing and retracting the movable platform. There is also included in the apparatus a series of apertures connected to a vacuum source for holding the tape temporarily at a location where it is to be cut after the cartridge is fully loaded and thereafter to cooperate in controlling the tape with other instrumentalities for initiating the next winding operation.
