ABSTRACT:
The specification describes a magnetic tape cartridge, more particularly a miniature one, with access openings arranged in one narrow side of the cartridge housing for the magnetic heads. The magnetic tape is supported in the access openings on resilient cushions. In the direction of tape travel upstream and downstream and between the access openings guide pins, fixed to the cartridge housing, are provided for the magnetic tape. The cushions are arranged on the arms of a double lever of resiliently elastic material, which is held by joint lugs and a pin in two plan-parallel flat strips fixed to the cartridge so as to allow pivoting movement. The strips extend perpendicularly and fit immediately underneath the narrow side having the access openings and the strips are fixedly connected together by the guide pins with a spacing between the strips.
