Abstract
A cassette tape recorder including a fixed base plate formed therein with a capstan inserting hole, a pair of openings for reel spindles to extend therethrough, an opening for a recording and reproducing head and an erasing head to extend therethrough and an opening for a pinch roller to extend therethrough, and formed on its upper surface with cassette position regulating portions so that the upper surface serves as a cassette attaching surface. The fixed base plate has on its underside sliding movement guide portions for guiding sliding parts, fastening portions for parts to be fastened and mounting portions for mounting springs so that the underside of the fixed base plate serves as a working part mounting surface. The working parts of the recorder are mounted only on the underside of the fixed base plate in such a manner that a plurality of working parts are stacked one over another by assembling from one direction while the vertical relative positions of the mounted working parts are regulated and the capstan, reel spindles, etc. extend through the hole and openings in the fixed base plate to appear on the cassette attaching surface. Only the uppermost parts are fastened as by screw to the fastening portions of the fixed base plate.
