Abstract
A tape transport apparatus configuration with a mounting portion, a single moving base, a motor, a pulley, and an urging mechanism. The mounting portion mounts a cartridge having an externally driven roller, and an information recording tape that runs in accordance with a rotational force of the roller. The moving base that has the motor is provided to the side of the roller, in the cartridge mounted to the mounting portion. The pulley is provided to the moving base and is rotationally driven in accordance with rotation of the motor. The urging mechanism acts on the moving base so that the pulley is brought into contact with the roller in the cartridge mounted to the mounting portion, and is pressed against the roller.
