ABSTRACT:
In the cartridge, the opening is formed diagonally to an arrow A direction by cutting away a corner portion at a drive device loading side, and the opening faces both the arrow A direction and an arrow B direction. A leader pin and a magnetic tape are drawn out along the minimal length path from the opening. A door, which is formed in a circular arc shape in plan view, is guided (to suppress looseness) by case screw bosses, protrusion portions and a guide surface while the door rotates to turn at an outer side of a pin stand and the reel without deviating from a movement path along the form of curvature of the door, and thus the opening is opened/closed.
