Tape remaining time, P 1 is the current rotation cycle of the winding reel, P 2 is the rotation cycle of the supply reel, r 0 is the maximum tape winding diameter, and R is the reel hub diameter. . Therefore, in the conventional magnetic recording / reproducing apparatus, the tape type (r 0 , R), the tape speed (T 0 ), the winding side,
The rotation period (P 1 , P 2 ) of the supply-side reel was measured, and the remaining time T 2 of the tape was calculated by using the above-mentioned calculation formulas for these measured values.

確に計測できる。When the remaining amount measurement button (not shown) is pressed, the drive wheel 12 rotates clockwise, so the take-up reel stand 3
Rotates to transfer the magnetic tape 4 to the right. Therefore, the rotary roller 8 also starts to rotate, and the encoder described above starts measuring the number of rotations of the rotary roller 8. When the magnetic tape reaches the end, it is driven by a well-known end detection means 12
Is reversed, and this time the rolling contact idler 13 comes into contact with the supply reel base side, and the supply reel base 2 transfers the magnetic tape 4 in the opposite direction, so the rotating roller 8 also rotates in the reverse direction, and the number of rotations measured by the encoder is When it becomes 0, the rotation of the drive wheel 13 is stopped and the tape position is returned to the original position. The number of rotations of the rotating roller 8 from when the take-up reel stand 3 starts to drive the magnetic tape 4 to the end of the tape can be measured. Since the diameter of the rotating roller 8 is known, the tape length up to the end can be measured. Therefore, since the magnetic tape transfer speed by the capstan 10 and the pinch roller 11 is also known, the remaining tape amount can be accurately measured.
