ABSTRACT:
An adapter for a miniature type tape cassette comprises an adapter case having an external form an size substantially identical to those of the standard type tape cassette, an accommodating part for accommodating the miniature type tape cassette, and a tape draw-out mechanism provided within the adapter case, for drawing out the tape from the miniature type tape cassette so as to form a predetermined tape path within the adapter case. The tape draw-out mechanism comprises tape draw-out members relatively entering on an inner side of the tape path along the front of the cassette case when accommodating the miniature type tape cassette within the accommodating part, and a manipulation part for operating the tape draw-out members so as to form the predetermined tape path within the adapter. The manipulation part projects outside the adapter case to such an extent that the manipulation part hits an inserting part of the standard type recording and/or reproducing apparatus and prevents insertion of the adapter before and during manipulation of the manipulation part, and recedes within the adapter case to permit insertion of the adapter after manipulation of the manipulation part is completed.
