<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily insert a tape cassette into a cassette holder and to surely prevent the swing in the back and forth direction with a reel base of the tape cassette as the center at the recording/reproducing time. SOLUTION: A leaf spring 7 is composed of a front side spring part 26 erected and a rear side spring part 27 provided downward from the upper end of the front side spring part 26 to its rear part. This leaf spring 7 is provided turnably back and forth with a lower end part of the front side spring part 26 in the cassette holder 6. Moreover, the leaf spring 7 is capable of changing positions between an inserting preparation position slantwise for transferring the leaf spring 7 in accordance with upward movement of the rear side spring part 27 and such a position that the leaf spring 7 in the inserting preparation position is turned backward by inserting the tape cassette 1 into the cassette holder 6 and also as an inserting position where the rear side spring part 27 is abutted with at least an upper end part and a lower part of a front panel of the tape cassette 1.</p> |
