ABSTRACT:
A tape cassette which automatically brings the tape into direct engagement with the detection head and into indirect engagement with the drive wheel of a machine when the tape cassette is pushed in one direction into the machine. Disposed in the cassette is a rotary roller which is brought, at the flanges provided on its outer periphery, into engagement with the drive wheel and driven thereby. The rotary roller cooperates with other guide members to maintain at the appropriate tension an endless belt which backs up the inner side of a portion of the tape which is paid out from one of the cores and wound onto the other core.
