ABSTRACT:
A tape cartridge is formed with a rotatable tape transport roller having a cylindrical exterior surface and a central bore into which protrudes a node from each inner sidewall of the cartridge to serve as trunnion axes for supporting the roller therein. In a preferred embodiment, the trunnion axes have an inward slant away from the central bore of the roller so that axial movement of the roller will produce a canting thereof to compensate for misalignment between the cartridge and components of a record/reproduce player in which the cartridge may be inserted.
