Abstract

In a braking system adopted in a tape player, an intermittently rotating cam has provided thereon a brake tripping portion and brake releasing portion with which a roller on a power plate is in such a contact as to be driven by the cam. The power plate may be reciprocally moved as the cam gear is rotated, thus providing for a brake control mechanism; coupled to the power plate of this brake control mechanism are a braking mechanism and also a head shift mechanism.
