ABSTRACT:
A cassette changer is mountable on a magnetic recording-reproduction apparatus having a cassette inlet-outlet opening. The cassette changer includes a cassette shifter which shifts a new cassette from a stand-by position above the cassette inlet-outlet opening to an insertion position facing the cassette inlet-outlet opening, and a cassette mover which inserts and withdraws a cassette into and from the magnetic recording-reproduction apparatus through the cassette inlet-outlet opening. The cassette mover is provided with a pair of rollers on both sides of the cassette, a roller shifter which shifts the rollers between an operative position to come into contact with the sides of the cassette to insert and withdraw the cassette and an inoperative position displaced from the sides of the cassette to allow the cassette to be shifted by the cassette shifter; and a roller driver which drives the rollers in forward and backward directions to insert and withdraw the cassette.
