A housing assembly of a tape recorder, comprising:
- a housing for receiving a tape cassette, said housing being supported by a deck member while ascending and descending during operation, said housing including an outer surface and two sides;
- at least one arm member installed on each of said two sides of said housing for supporting said housing with respect to said deck member;
- a shaft extending across said housing;
- first and second gears respectively coupled to both ends of said shaft;
- first and second sector gears respectively coupled to ends of said arm members and being meshed with said first and second gears, respectively;
- and
- locking means installed on one of said two sides of said housing, for selectively locking said housing at a loaded position on said deck member,
- wherein the radius of said first gear is smaller than that of said second gear, thereby to cause said two sides of said housing to rotate at an equal rotating angle when said housing is rotated by pressing a specified point on one side of the outer surface of said housing.
