Abstract

A tape rewinding device for a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus. When a tape cassette is loaded and recorded or reproduced, the tape often becomes loose within the deck. The tape rewinding device automatically recovers the loose portion of the tape during the ejecting of the tape cassette. A slider is provided with a tape recovering apparatus that includes a plurality of gears, and the tape recovering means is meshed with a rack gear. During the ejecting of the tape cassette, the gears are made to revolve by being meshed with the rack gear, and the rotating gear rotates a supply reel, thereby rewinding the loosen tape.
