Abstract

A deck mechanism for a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus, wherein its fixed base plate and its slide base are slidably coupled to each other without defining a space therebetween. Elements of a tape traveling system are arranged on upper and lower surfaces of the fixed base plate and the upper surface of the slide base. The upper surface of the fixed base plate is mounted with the head drum, a loading motor, a supply slant post assembly, a take-up slant post assembly, a stabilizer, pinch roller arm-driving and pressing mechanisms, a head cleaning mechanism, a capstan shaft of a capstan, all being upwardly protruded from the upper surface of the fixed base plate. The upper surface of the slide base is mounted with a supply reel table, a take-up reel table, a tension adjusting mechanism, and a brake, all being upwardly protruded from the upper surface of the slide base. The lower surface of the fixed base plate is mounted with a power transmission system for the loading motor, a rotor magnet of a capstan motor, an idler mechanism, and a mode sensing mechanism. The deck mechanism of the present invention can be reduced in volume, total height and in number of elements used. As a result, it is possible to provide products with light, thin, simple and compact construction and reduce the manufacture cost.
