ABSTRACT:
In a storage case for a magnetic tape cassette providing a case main body, a pair of openings with rims formed on a bottom of the casing for rotary shaft insertion, a pair of tape reels each positioned rotatably around the respective openings and a pair of annular ribs each formed on a bottom of one of the tape reels, the storage case provides a case main body including a bottom plate and a peripheral wall projecting on the bottom plate to form a case storage space, a closure member including a top plate covering a top of the case main body and walls projecting on the top plate and overlapping the wall, a joining member with a hinge for joining the case main body and the closure member which are opened and closed freely to store the magnetic tape cassette in the case storage space, and a pair of projections formed on the bottom plate, each of the projections being capable of entering between one of the rims and respective one of the annular ribs and locking the casing and the tape reels of the magnetic tape cassette. The storage case can prevent the casing and the tape reels from clattering, and smoothly store and take out the magnetic tape cassette.
