Storage magazine with plural leaf springs for recording tape cassettes in the cassette boxes

摘要

A storage magazine for recording tapes has disposed in a housing a plurality of chambers of a cross-section which corresponds to the cross-section of commercially available cassette boxes, the chambers being formed by drawer-like plastic components disposed on top of one another and compressed within the housing. The drawer-like components have tongue-like extensions projecting from the housing and being somewhat narrower than a cassette box to facilitate insertion and removal of a box and they also have, adjacent each chamber, a leaf spring structure depending into the adjacent chamber and having a spring force sufficient to deflect the adjacent wall of a cassette box into engagement with a cassette therein thereby to prevent rattling thereof and to lock the box in said chamber.
