Abstract
A record player is provided with a turntable brake for instantly stopping the turntable of the record player in playback when desired and a pair of balance wheels for permitting slant of the turntable within a predetermined range when manually operating the turntable. The turntable hereof has a peripheral drum portion extending downwardly from its bottom and a rubber shoe is mounted on one end of a pivoted lever arm. The lever arm is adapted to be actuated to press the rubber shoe against the drum portion of the turntable for stopping rotating movement of the turntable by means of friction.
