Abstract

See full text

Tape path stabilization apparatus for establishing vertical tape alignment from a base with respect to a transducer featuring an axially floating, radially symmetric crown pulley and a tape reel with a downwardly extending annular outrigger rib or boss maintaining contact with the base. The crown pulley will chase tape which loses alignment, tending to center the tape at the peak of the crown. The reel with the annular outrigger will feed or receive tape in a desired vertical height, tending to limit the extent of motion of the floating crown pulley, tending to center the pulley in its range of motion.
