ABSTRACT:
A device such as a cassette recorder of a computer has a wall portion formed with a loading aperture for introduction of standard-type objects, such as a magnetic-tape cassette or a cassette for an optical or magnetic disc. To prevent damage or incorrect operation, the device includes a blocking mechanism which blocks the introduction of objects having a smaller width and/or height. A spring urges a partially inserted object in a direction parallel to the dimension or dimensions to be sensed.
