ABSTRACT:
A step portion is provided in a bottom surface of a concave portion of an upper case of the magnetic tape cartridge, at a rear end side in a loading direction of the magnetic tape cartridge. By providing the step portion at the concave portion of the upper case in this way, it is possible to increase a surface area of planar-contact between a side wall of the concave portion and a planarly-contacting portion of a claw portion of an upper hand portion forming a robot hand. Thus, when the magnetic tape cartridge is to be nipped, it is easy for the claw portion to catch thereon. Even if a top surface of the upper case swells slightly due to a spring provided within a case, the claw portion can reliably catch on the side wall of the concave portion.
