ABSTRACT:
A cassette holder is moveable between a first and a second end position, and has at least one actuating spring moving it from the first to the second position. The spring is a cylindrical helical spring wound around a shaft rotatably mounted on the cassette holder, and having at least one pinion meshing with a rack having the same shape as the path of movement of the cassette holder between the two positions. The spring is pretensioned, and the holder is latched in the first end position against the spring force. Upon release of the latch, the spring drives the shaft and pinion so that movement of the pinion along the rack moves the cassette holder from the first end position to the second end position.
