ABSTRACT:
A tape recorder is provided with a device for eliminating any slack of a tape inside a tape cassette before initiation of a reproducing operation. In the state that forward movement of a head mounting plate is inhibited by a lock member and rotation of one of paired reel spindles is inhibited by a brake, a reel gear of the other reel spindle is driven via a slack eliminating gear supported on a movable member. When the tape inside the tape cassette has been taken up over a length equal to the slack on the other reel spindle and the other reel spindle has been stopped, the slack eliminating gear receives a reaction force from the reel gear to move the movable member. This movement of the movable member releases the lock member so that the head mounting plate is allowed to move substantially further and the brake is also disengaged from the one reel spindle to start a reproducing operation.
