ABSTRACT:
A container for receiving a cassette with a tape-like recording medium, and comprising a rectangular housing, a transporting slide member for supporting the cassette and movable along the side wall of the housing for advancing the cassette to a position at which the cassette is removed and a spring supported in the housing for advancing the transporting slide member to the position at which the cassette is removed. A retaining arrangement is provided for retaining the transporting slide member. The retaining arrangement includes a leaf spring secured to the slider member, extending in a direction of movement thereof, and having a free end, a tooth secured at the free end of the leaf spring for engaging the housing to retain the transporting slide member therein, and a finger-actuatable push-button for releasing the transporting slide member upon application of finger pressure to the push-button. A counter-supporting member is secured to a portion of the side wall of the housing. A snap hook is arranged on the side of the push-button opposite the portion of the side wall of said housing to which the counter-supporting member is secured, for snapping over the counter-supporting member for holding the push-button in a disengaged position thereof and for snapping under the counter-supporting member when the transporting slide member is advanced into the housing.
