PATENT 7217/38546 ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A tape cassette comprises a housing and a pair of reels mounted for rotation and translation in the housing so that the reels can assume either of first and second relative positions. A recording tape is wound on the reels and extends therebetween for transport from one of the reels to the other. The housing is formed with an opening through which a trans- ducer can gain access to the recording tape for recording or reproducing signals on or from the recording tape. The reels in the first relative position conformed to a first arrange- ment of a drive for driving the reels in rotation and afford a predetermined amount of space for accommodating a transducer within the housing for access to the recording tape and in the second relative position correspond to a second arrangement of a drive for driving the reels in rotation and afford an addi- tional amount of space for accommodating a transducer within the housing for access to the recording tape. The translation in accordance with the invention has a component parallel to a left-to-right direction of the housing as well as a front-to- back direction of the housing, so that the reels in the second position are displaced towards the rear corners of the tape cassette. -1-
