SU772502A3 - Device for storing cartridge with magnetic tape - Google Patents

Abstract

The container with the exchangeable magnetic tape cassette located therein comprises a rectangular housing (1) and a slide-in unit (2), which can move along a narrow side of the housing and receives the tape cassette, as well as a compression spring (3), which acts between the rear wall (23) of the slide-in unit and the rear side (8) of the housing. After the release of a holding device (31, 35), the compression spring pushes the slide-in unit together with the tape cassette by an amount out of the housing into an open position, in which the tape cassette can be removed unhindered from the container. The push-in unit has the form of a four-sided frame which leaves the bottom (10) of the housing free and which at least partially embraces the tape cassette lying on the bottom. In the open position, at least the frame part protruding out of the container takes up an oblique position with respect to the bottom of the housing, releasing the cassette on all sides, so that one-handed operation for loading and removal is possible. It is also advantageous that the container allows music tape cassettes to be loaded in four different orientations and coincides in its dimensions with conventional cassette boxes. <IMAGE>

Description

one

The invention relates to the field of accumulation of information, namely, devices for storing tape cartridges.

A device for storing 5 a cassette with a magnetic tape is known, which contains a rectangular case having the possibility of holding in it a cassette with a magnetic tape 0-3. The known device has a relatively simple structure.

A disadvantage of the known device is that it does not securely hold the cartridge with the magnetic tape in the rectangular 5 case.

It is also known a device for storing a cassette with a magnetic tape, comprising a rectangular case, the bottom wall of which is coupled 20 through a compression spring with the bottom wall of the holder of a cassette with magnetic tape, fitted with reed tabs, coupled with the cores of the cassette with magnetic tape, and 25 locking protrusion and mounted with the possibility of translational movement between the cheeks of the rectangular case, the first of which is provided with a locking protrusion 2}. It,

the device allows for relatively secure holding of a tape cassette in a rectangular case.

The disadvantage of such a device is the considerable complexity of its maintenance.

The purpose of the invention is to simplify the maintenance of a storage device for a tape cassette.

This is achieved due to the fact that the cassette holder with a magnetic tape is made in the form of a hollow frame, the side walls of which have angular cuts, and the bottom wall is mounted to mate with a locking protrusion of the first cheek of the rectangular case, having the articulation with the fixing protrusion of the holder of the cassette with magnetic tape, moreover, after the release of the fixing protrusion from the fixing groove of the first cheek of the rectangular case when the locking protrusion is mated with the bottom wall The holder of the tape cassette, the first slit of the rectangular case, has the possibility of entering into the corner cuts of the side walls of the hollow frame, which at the same time can be installed at an acute angle to the tape cassette located on the second cheek of the rectangular case.

FIG. Figure 1 shows one of the possible variants of the proposed device for storing a tape cassette; in fig. 2 - the location of the tape cassette.

The proposed device comprises a rectangular case 1, the bottom wall 2 of which is coupled through a helical spring 3 of compression with the bottom wall 4 of the holder 5 of the magnetic tape cassette b. The holder 5 of the cassette 6 with a magnetic tape is provided with a tongue stopper 7 connected to the cores of the cassette 6 with a magnetic tape and a locking lug 8. The holder 5 of the cassette 6 with a magnetic tape is mounted for translation between the first and second cheeks 9 and 1 of the rectangular can 1. At the same time, the first cheek 9 of the rectangular case 1 is provided with a locking protrusion 11.

In the proposed device, the holder 5 of the magnetic tape cassette is made in the form of a hollow frame, the side walls 12 of which have angular cuts 13, and the bottom wall 4 is mounted to mate with the locking protrusion 11 of the first cheek of the rectangular case 1. First cheek 9 of the right The carbon case 1 is made with a locking groove 14, which can be coupled with a locking lug 8 of the cassette holder 6 with a magnetic tape, and after the locking lug 8 comes out of the locking groove 14 when the locking lug 11 is attached to the bottom wall The first 4 cheek 9 rectangular case 1 has the ability to enter into the corner notches of the 13 side walls, 12 of the hollow frame. In this case, the frame has the ability to be installed at an acute angle to a tape cassette b with a magnetic tape located on the second cheek 1Q. rectangular case 1.

In addition, in the proposed floor device, the frame of the holder 5 of the magnetic tape cassette b is made with a spring facing front wall 15. When pressed on it, the spring front wall 15 of the hollow frame does not have the ability to output the locking lug 8 of the holder 5 of the magnetic tape cassette b from the fixing groove 14 of the first cheek 9 rectangular case 1.

In the proposed device, the insertion of the magnetic tape cassette b is carried out with the holder 5 extended. For this, the magnetic tape cassette b is inserted into the rectangular

case 1 up to the bottom wall

4 holders 5. After this holder

5 is slid into the rectangular case 1 until the fixing protrusion 8 enters

locking groove 14. To remove the magnetic tape cassette b from the rectangular case 1, the spring front wall 15 of the hollow frame is pressed down, which leads to pushing out the holder 5 and the magnetic tape cassette b due to the compression spring 3.

The use of the invention makes it possible to greatly simplify the maintenance of the device for storing the magnetic tape cassette 5.
