  • Patent number: 4326660
    Abstract: A cassette tape player (11) has an integral combined tape guide and stripper (32) which is mounted adjacent to a capstan shaft (26) and has an end portion (52) that extends beyond a free upstanding end (38) of the capstan shaft and effectively forms a guide plane for insuring that when a cassette housing (12) containing a tape (15) is inserted into the tape player, the tape will be positioned between the capstan shaft and a pressure roller (29) which is selectively, linearly movable toward and away from the capstan shaft. The tape guide and stripper is fixed to the tape player frame (19) and includes stripper portion (54, 55) which partially surround the section (39) of the capstan shaft that will contact an inserted tape, but still permit selective engagement with the movable pressure roller such that the tape will be pressed between the capstan and pressure roller while the stripper portions prevent the tape from being wrapped around the capstan shaft.
