Abstract: PURPOSE: To increase a protective function of tape cassettes by providing tape locking elements, which are at the bottom face of a parallel hexahedron container for tape cassettes, with arc-shaped ring segments which are roughly adapted to the drive orifice of the tape locking element. CONSTITUTION: A container 5 is composed of a bottom part 6 and a lid part 7 which are pivotally connected by a hinge means 17, the bottom part 6 is provided with locking spindles (locking elements) 9, 10, and the lid part 7 is provided with a cassette pocket 8. The bottom part 6 is provided with a notch 11 to which the front wall of the pocket 8 is fitted when the container 5 is closed. The container 5 houses a compact cassette K. This cassette K is provided with a drive orifice 18 in which a hub 20 with drive gears is arranged. In this drive orifice 18, the locking elements 9, 10 are pushed which consists of a ring segment 21, a longitudinal web 22, and a center peg 23. The ring segment 21 is formed in an ark shape roughly adapted to the circular shape of the drive orifice 18.
