ABSTRACT:
In a recording tape cartridge, an opening is formed at a corner portion between wall portions which are at a front and a side with respect to a direction of loading, into a drive device, a substantially rectangular case accommodating a reel on which a recording tape is wound. The opening is inclined with respect to the direction of loading. A leader member attached to an end portion of the recording tape is pulled-out from the opening. A door, which is formed in an arc-shape and opens and closes the opening, is disposed at the opening so as to be slidable along a predetermined, arc-shaped guide groove. A width of the groove is formed so as to narrow along a direction in which the door closes the opening. Opening and closing operations of the door are thereby stabilized.
