ABSTRACT:
A tape cassette comprising a flat, box-like cassette case, a recording medium tape accommodated in the cassette case, and a lid for covering and protecting, when the tape cassette is not in use, the recording medium tape at a portion exposed out of the cassette case, wherein a fulcrum of the lid is composed of a fulcrum pin and a receiving portion for receiving and holding the fulcrum pin, the receiving portion being made of an elastic synthetic resin and having a circular inner peripheral face for receiving the fulcrum pin, the inner peripheral face being partially notched for providing an introducing portion, and
a frontage of the introducing portion being slightly smaller than an outer diameter of the fulcrum pin. This setup makes extremely easy the work for having the fulcrum pin be supported in the receiving portion.
