ABSTRACT:
In a cassette loading device, an engaging member 4b engaging with the fitting part 1a of a cassette 1 is moved back and forth along guide holes 2a formed in the upper surface of a cassette holder. As the engaging member is moved in this manner, the cassette 1 is moved back and forth in the cassette holder 2 to open and close the slider 1b of the cassette 1. The engaging member 4b is operated with swing arms 5 provided on the cassette holder 2. According to this arrangement, when a cassette is loaded, insertion of the cassette can be achieved with a small pushing stroke and with a small pushing force. Further, the cassette is ejected smoothly without pushing members striking against the front end face of the cassette and is prevented from changing in posture or falling off the cassette holder while being loaded or ejected. Furthermore, the cassette loading device can be decreased in depth.
