Cassette tape loading device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To prevent a failure beforehand, by operating to put off a cassette tape if a switch detecting loading of the cassette tape can not detect the correct loading within a prescribed time. CONSTITUTION:One terminal of the 1st switch 2 is connected to a power supply 6, and the power is supplied to a loading mechanism 3 and a control section 5 through the turning on of the switch 2, and the section 5 finishes loading when the 2nd switch 4 turns on. The control section 5 inputs the output of the switch 2 in the ON state and drives the loading mechanism 3. Counting the time after the switch 2 turns on, if the on-output of the 2nd switch 4 is obtained before a prescribed time elapses, the operation of the mechanism 3 is stopped by assuming the cassette tape as being correctly loaded at the position shown in broken lines. If the 2nd switch 4 is not turned on even with the prescribed time elapsed, it is discriminated that the cassette tape is not correctly loaded and the mechanism 3 is driven to put off the cassette tape.
