ABSTRACT:
The cassette holder for the transverse storage of magnetic tape cassettes, compact cassettes and digital cassettes has locking members (10) provided for locking the tape reel hubs (17) of a compact cassette (19) on a slider element (2) on which the cassette is moved from a removal position to a storage position. The movement of the locking members (10) is triggered by an actuating device (3) having a control edge (4) which raises and locks the locking members via a first turning pin (9) arranged with the locking members (10) on a common shaft (11). The actuating device (3) is actuated by the standard thickened portion (18) on the compact cassette and the control edge (4) in question. The first turning pin (9) travels in a first recess (6) in the base plate (1) and the locking members (10) travel in additional recesses (20) in the base plate (1) to reduce the cassette holder height. Compared with known cassette holder structures, the overall height of the cassette holder and the number of its components are reduced, thus simplifying the cassette structure.
