Abstract
A magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus, wherein a rotor device is arranged in such a manner that one end of an orbiting or rotating shaft which is integral with the rotor is inserted in an opening portion of a main base plate of the apparatus, while the other end of the shaft is inserted in an opening portion of a sub-base plate opposite to the main base plate, and preferably, a plurality of such rotor devices are provided in series and engage with one another to thereby perform predetermined operations. With this construction, the number of components and the manufacturing cost can be reduced, and also, the expense for building sub-assemblies can be saved.
Claims3
A magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus in which a magnetic tape held in a cassette is drawn out and extended over a rotary cylinder with a magnetic head mounted thereon, and a plurality of rotors, wherein each of said plurality of rotors is formed in such a manner that a shaft thereof is integral with a rotating body of said rotor, the magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus includes a main base plate with a plurality of openings and a sub-base plate with a plurality of openings, said rotors being respectively rotatably mounted in such a manner that one end of the shaft is inserted in one of said openings provided in said main base plate, while the other end of said shaft is inserted in one of said openings provided in the sub-base plate opposite to said main base plate, and wherein said plurality of rotors are provided in series and are engageable with one another so as to transfer power from a drive source.
