ABSTRACT:
In a cassette loading device according to the invention, a member for transmitting the drive force supplied from a loading motor is formed of a spur gear for facilitating assembly, a stopper is associated to teeth of a spur gear, which is provided for moving a cassette housing, so as to stop the rotation of the spur gear through an angle smaller than 360 degrees without a fail, a plurality of apertures through which light beams are passed to a photosensor are formed at positions in a gear sense corresponding to moving patterns for the purpose of detecting a trailing end of the tape in accordance with various moving patterns of the tape cassette, and a door moving member of an integral type is employed to eliminate a connection to a door for reducing the number of parts for opening and closing a door and thus facilitating the assembly.
