Abstract: Disclosed herein is a magnetic tape cartridge in which reliability has been enhanced by preventing a thin insertion-guide portion, provided in an opening for guiding a leader pin, from being deformed due to shock produced by dropping, etc. The magnetic tape cartridge has a cartridge case 4 in which a single reel with magnetic tape 6 wound thereon is rotatably housed. In an opening 10 through which a leader member 5 rigidly attached to the leading end of the magnetic tape 6 is pulled in and out, an insertion-guide portion 21 for guiding an end portion of the leader member 5 is formed by making the case wall surface thin, and a cutout is provided on at least one side of the insertion-guide portion 21 at a position of an edge of the opening 10.

Abstract: A magnetic tape cartridge includes a cartridge casing formed by upper and lower casing halves and a single reel around which a magnetic tape is wound and which is contained in the cartridge casing for rotation. A slide door for opening and closing a tape outlet opening is mounted on the cartridge casing to be linearly slidable along a door passage between a closing position where it closes the tape outlet opening and an opening position where it opens the tape outlet opening. A door spring for urging the slide door toward the closing position and holding the same in the closing position is disposed on the door passage.

Abstract: A data storage cartridge (10) includes a door and door spring assembly (30). The door and door spring assembly (30) includes a door member (31) and an elongate member (32) having a first end (31a) operatively connected to the door member (31). A spring (33) is mounted on the elongate member (32). A slidably mounted stop (34) is operatively connected to the housing (12). The stop (34) has a containment member, wherein the spring is maintained in position by the stop (34).

Abstract: A magnetic tape cartridge includes a cartridge casing formed by upper and lower casing halves mated together and a single reel around which a magnetic tape is wound and which is supported for rotation in the cartridge casing by the upper casing half. A memory holding structure holds a non-contact type memory element with its recording surface held substantially at 45° to the bottom surface of the cartridge casing.
