Abstract: A tray moving mechanism includes: a unit base having an internal space formed as a containing space; and a tray movable between a retracted position in which the unit base is contained in the containing space and a projected position in which a music player formed in a substantially rectangular shape can be placed on the tray and in which a part of the tray is projected from the base unit, wherein the tray is moved with respect to the unit base such that the orientations of the tray with respect to the unit base in the retracted and projected positions are substantially 90 deg different from each other.

Abstract: An apparatus for driving a reel in a tape cartridge for a magnetic instrument with a reel lock having a non-rotary forced member disposed at a center of the reel in the tape cartridge comprising a protruding reel drive to engage the reel to drive rotatively drive the reel and a non-rotary unlocking element disposed at a central axis of the reel drive to force the forced member so as to displace the reel lock whereby the reel is unlocked.

Abstract: An apparatus for guiding along a guide path a leader block in a tape cartridge for a magnetic instrument comprising means to prevent the leader block from being moved in a backward direction along the guide path.
