MAGNETIC-TAPE CASSETTE

摘要

A magnetic-tape cassette comprises a housing containing a magnetic tape, part of which extends across an opening in the front side of the housing which opening can be covered by a front cover of channel section which is pivotable on the housing at or near a corner thereof. In addition to being pivotable the front cover is also slidable on the housing when in the open position into a retracted position in which it extends along a side wall of the housing. In the retracted position the flanges of the channel-section front cover are received in, and substantially completely fill, recesses which are formed in the outer surfaces of the major walls of the cassette housing adjacent said side wall thereof.
