<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To miniaturize a cassette changer device utilizing an elevator system by reducing the space between the elevator and a loading/unloading part of a recording/reproducing device as much as possible. SOLUTION: When the cassette recording medium 12 is inserted, a tape streamer part 28 is transferred to the half injecting state to house the inserted cassette recording medium 12 inside this part. When the eject is instructed, the tape streamer part 28 is transferred to the half ejecting state without ejecting the cassette recording medium 12 housed therein in spite of the instruction of a host computer, then the cassette recording medium 12 is discharged awaiting the instruction of a cassette exchanging part 20. Thus, the collision of the cassette recording medium 12 with the elevator 200 is prevented in the manner of eliminating by the tape streamer part 28 that the cassette recording medium 12 becomes the half inserting state, during the time the elevator 200 is possibly moved.</p> |
