Abstract
Disclosed is a reel clutch of a tape recorder. A plate spring is positioned between a reel gear and a reel disc of a reel disc assembly which is mounted on a deck of a tape recorder, and a stopper reel is provided on the reel disc to restrain the engaging height of the plate spring so that a torque is generated by the frictional contact between the reel disc and the plate spring, whereby assembly productivity can be enhanced and manufacturing costs can be reduced.
Claims7
A reel clutch of a tape recorder, which is installed in a reel disc assembly mounted on a deck of a tape recorder and having a reel gear and a reel disc, for generating a torque to adjust the tension of a magnetic tape, thereby controlling the running speed of the magnetic tape, wherein the reel clutch comprises:
- a plate spring positioned between the reel gear and the reel disc;
- and
- a stopper reel engaged with the reel disc to restrain the engaging height of the plate spring, so that the reel disc and the plate spring come into contact with each other to generate a torque by friction.
A reel clutch of a tape recorder, which is installed in a reel assembly driving apparatus, mounted on a deck of a tape recorder and having an idle gear and clutching gear, for generating a torque to drive magnetic tape, wherein the reel clutch comprises:
- a plate spring positioned between the clutching gear and the idle gear;
- and
- a rotating body engaged with the idle gear to restrain the engaging height of the plate spring, so that the clutching gear and the plate spring come into contact with each other to generate a torque by friction.
