Abstract: A slide type cassette storage case in which a tape cassette is inserted laterally through an insertion port provided on a side surface thereof so as to eliminate a generation of warp or surface sink after molding because of a difference of thickness between concave grooves 35, 36 which retreats from an expanded portion of the tape cassette and thick portions 32e, 33e along the concave grooves 35, 36. Providing thickness missing portions 48, 45 substantially in the center of the thick portion 32e, 33e along the concave grooves 35, 36.

Abstract: A slide-type cassette storage case is disclosed that can accommodate a tape cassette when inserted laterally through an insertion port provided on a side surface of the cassette storage case. In one embodiment of the cassette storage case (31), a protrusion (10) of the cassette tape is accommodated by a notch (45) formed in a deep wall portion (32d) of the cassette storage case. In another embodiment of the cassette storage case (31), thick portions (33e) include thickness-missing portions (46) in a center portion of the upper half (33), and also includes thick portions (32e) include cassette holding portions (47) on the lower half (32). The notch (45) reduces the size and the production cost of the cassette storage case (31). The missing-thickness portions (46) eliminate warp or surface sink during the manufacturing process.

Abstract: In a cassette accommodation case which has a structure of inserting and taking out a cassette in a manner of sliding the cassette in a transverse direction from an insertion opening (3a;3b) formed on one side of the cassette accommodation case, the cassette is smoothly inserted thereinto and taken out thereof. A cassette supporting surface (thick wall portion 1a) on an inner surface side of the cassette accommodation case is formed into a knurling surface so as to reduce a frictional resistance when inserting the cassette in the cassette accommodation case and taking it out thereof.

Abstract: A cassette accommodating case formed integrally of a lower half 1 and an upper half 2 has a cassette insertion opening 3 at is one side surface. A finger-insertion opening portion 24 used for drawing a cassette is formed through an upper surface of the upper half 2. A reel stopper member 9 in which a pair of reel stopper pieces 11, 11 capable of rising and being pressed down and engaged with reel hub apertures 32a, 32b of a compact cassette 30 is fixed on a bottom surface of the lower half 1. A traverse U-letter shaped slit groove 13 is formed through a portion of the base late where the reel stopper pieces 11, 11 are planted, thereby the reel stopper member being formed as a reel stopper member having a flexible base plate 10c which is flexibly deformed.

Abstract: In a cassette accommodate case having such a structure that a cassette is accommodated by being laterally inserted from an inserting mouth portion provided on one side surface thereof, the rotation stopping projecting tabs which engage with hubs in the cassette to prevent the rotation thereof are provided and are capable of rising and falling, in order to prevent the hubs from unnecessarily rotating rotation stopping projecting tabs. With the cassette accommodation case according to the present invention, the rotation stopping projecting tabs are each comprised by parallelly providing two tabs as a set in a cassette inserting direction. Due to the arrangement, in a case where one tab of the rotation stopping projecting tabs does not revert to an erect state and resultantly does not engage with the hubs, another tab engages with the hubs, thereby making it possible to surely prevent the hubs from unnecessarily rotating.

Abstract: In a cassette accommodation case which has a structure allowing insertion and housing a cassette in a transverse direction from an insertion opening (2) formed on one side of the cassette accommodation case, and is formed with recess grooves (3a, 3b) for receiving a bulged portion of the cassette on an inner surface thereof, the cassette is securely held in the cassette accommodation case so as to prevent the cassette from suddenly slipping out of the opening. In the cassette accommodation case of the present invention, the recess groove (3b) is provided with a stopper member (25) having an engaging protrusion (25a), and when the cassette is housed in the cassette accommodation case, the engaging protrusion (25a) of the stopper member (25) is engaged with a capstan shaft insertion hole formed on the bulged portion of the cassette, and thereby, the cassette is securely held in the cassette accommodation case.

Abstract: A tape cassette in which fixed guide pins (9), (10) are disposed at positions in which a wrapping angle at which a magnetic tape is wound around the fixed guide pins (9), (10) when the magnetic tape is transported is reduced that is the position at which the tape wrapping angle does not exceed 40.degree. wherein, a frictional force generated between the fixed guide pins (9), (10) and the magnetic tape (3) when the magnetic tape (3) is transported is reduced as compared with a conventional tape cassette, whereby a load on a motor for transporting the magnetic tape (3) is reduced, resulting in a life of a battery being extended.
