In a magnetic tape cassette, a top end portion of a reel urging plate spring for urging a tape reel is subjected to a surface treatment to prevent from a friction. A distance between a couple of flanges of the tape reel is selected to keep a form of the wound magnetic tape, and to prevent the tape running from being disturbed by the increases of a contract resistance of the tape edges to the flanges. Additionally, positioning portions for positioning the magnetic tape cassette relative to a magnetic tape drive device are formed of a differential resin from the resin of the remaining part of the cassette case. Additionally, at least one of both end faces of each guide roller is surface treated so that the end face is not worn through its contact with the cassette half. Further, an information presenting section for displaying variable information is provided at a location other than label areas of the tape cassette.

A receiving surface ( ) for use in the supersonic welding of the welding boss ( ) of an M cassette tape reel ( ) is composed of the lower surface of a ring portion ( ) which is formed so as to extend annularly along the base end of a hub central portion ( ) formed in the bottom surface ( ) of a lower reel ( ) and also which is projected downward (in FIG. ) by a given amount from the bottom surface ( ). That is, the receiving surface ( ) is situated slightly outside in the radial direction from directly below the welding boss ( ).

Tape reel for use in magnetic tape cassette

A magnetic tape cassette includes an ID board for enabling a hardware to identify the magnetic tape by bringing contacts on a circuit board of the ID board which are exposed through an opening formed in a lower cassette half into contact with corresponding contacts in the hardware. Additionally, a plating treatment is provided on the contacts on the ID board. Further, a determined distance is secured between all end portions of the parts of the circuit board. Which are provided with the plating treatment, and the end faces of the circuit board. In an illustrative, non-limiting embodiment, the determined distance of the ID boards at a forward position in a moving direction of the magnetic tape cassette at which the contacts on the ID board are adapted to slidably contact with the contacts in the hardware is set to be 0.05-0.25 mm.
