Abstract

In a recording and/or reproducing device (1) for a cassette (2) having a coupling element (6) connected to the magnetic tape (5) a pull-out element (24) has been provided, which is constructed to be coupled to the coupling element (6) and to pull the coupling element (6) out of the cassette (2) in a pull-out direction (10), and which has a rotationally drivable take-up reel (19) having a reel hub (20), and which has a pull-out element (24) constructed to be coupled to the coupling element (6) and to pull the coupling element (6) out of the cassette (2), which pull-out element is retained with the aid of a retaining member (35), which is movable between a standby position and an operating position, namely in a nominal position with respect to the retaining member (35) when it is not coupled to the coupling element (6), and after it has been coupled to the coupling element (6) is movable to a take-up reel (19) with the aid of a pull-out tape (60) and, when the retaining member (35) is situated in the area of its operating position, is retained so as to be movable with respect to the retaining member (35) against the pull-out direction (10) and, during coupling to the coupling element…
