center of the platter and at the same time elimi-
nates any excessive stylus tip force on the inner
wall of the record groove.

3. Operation of Automatic
Mechanism
Change cycle mechanism:
1. During
playing,
the notch
of the main
gear position
relative to the turntable spindle gear is as shown in Fig.
2. As the projection is away from the engagement, the
main gear does not rotate even though the turntable.
2. As playing proceeds,
the trip slide moves toward the
center of the turntable following the movement of the
tonearm.
3. The engagement
is very easy to move as it simply rests
on the lower trip. On the music section of the record
groove
the
engagement
moves
so
slightly
that
it is
returned by the tip of the projection. Consequently, the
turntable
spindle gear. does not engage with the main
gear and thus does not trigger the auto-return operation
as shown in Fig. 3.
