Abstract
A cassette ejection mechanism includes an ejecting plate movably attached to a guide plate and having a pressing element for pressing a magnetic head and a pinch roller, a boosting plate movably attached to the guide plate, and a stop member attached to the guide plate so as to be able to engage the boosting plate to lock the same. After the magnetic head and pinch roller are moved by the pressing element to positions where they do not hinder the movement of a cassette holder, the stop member is pressed by the pressing element to be disengaged from the boosting plate. The boosting plate is urged by an urging element stretched between the ejecting plate and boosting plate to move the cassette holder from its lower position to its upper position.
