<p>PURPOSE:To securely support a loaded tape cassette by adopting a constitution that a pressing member approaches a cassette stage attended with the descending of the cassette stage so as to facilitate the loading/unloading of the tape cassette. CONSTITUTION:In loading the tape cassette 1, a mis-loading preventing member 26 is bent upward by the taper at the tip of the cassette to attain the loading of the tape cassette 1 thereby loading the tape cassette 1 until its tip is pressed into contact with a stopper 2a. A cassette pressing member 27 is close to the cassette stage 2 at the lock state and the tape cassette 1 is held onto the cassette stage 2 by an elastic force of the cassette pressing member 27. In ejecting the tape cassette 1, when the lock means is released, the cassette stage 2, a lid support member 4 and a lid 5 are moved upward attended with the open leg motion of a turning link 9 and since the lid support plate 4 and the lid 5 are tilted, the tape cassette is extracted without receiving the elastic force from the cassette pressing member 27.</p> |
