<p>PURPOSE:To securely load a tape cassette by lowering elastically and pressingly a transfer base with a transfer base transferring means and holding pressingly the tape cassette between a bottom part of the transfer base and a pair of positioning pins to be restrained from moving up and down and right and left. CONSTITUTION:A lid part is brought under the completely open state by a lid opening means provided on a side of the transfer base 10, and the tape cassette 12 is positioned by engaging its holes in one pair with the positioning pins on a base 16 in accordance with the lowering motion of the transfer base. Furthermore, the transfer base 10 is slightly elastically pressingly lowered by the transfer base transferring means 18, and by this lowering motion, the tape cassette 12 is elastically pressingly held between the transfer base 10 bottom part and the one pair of positioning pins by a pressing operation against a top surface of the cassette with a pair of the engaging part provided on an upper part of the transfer base 10, so that the tape cassette 12 is completely restrained from moving up and down and right and left. By this method, the cassette tape 12 can be held under the stable state in a prescribed loading position, thus ensuring the perfect loading.</p> |
