ABSTRACT:
Flat spring structure for magnetic tape cassettes, in particular video cassettes, which comprises an elastic lamina of elongate conformation which is coupleable at a middle portion thereof with the cover of a cassette and which acts, proximate to its free end on the central pivot of the reels supporting a magnetic tape. The peculiarity of the invention is constituted by the fact that the lamina at the side thereof facing the reels, has a concave piecewise conformation with at least one fold line in the portion defined between the free end and the zone of coupling with the cover. The fold line, with the lamina inserted into the cassette, engages by contact with the cover to define a fulcrum point for elastic oscillation of said lamina.
