A magnetic tape cassette which can be smoothly assembled and smoothly operated for a long period of time without any malfunctions in operation. In the magnetic tape cassette, a spring support for holding a hub brake spring and an abutment for provisionally holding an extension of a hub brake spring are pivoted on a lower casing member of a casing in which a magnetic tape is received, and a release element for releasing the provisionally held hub brake spring from the abutment to transfer it to a spring engagement of the hub brake is provided on the upper casing member. Also, the spring engagement is arranged on the other side of the hub brake so as to project therefrom.

A tape cassette has a case with upper and lower halves and an open space at the front thereof. A magnetic tape housed in the case is wound around a pair of reels. A brake is slidably mounted on the inner surface of the lower half of the case to prevent the reels from being rotated. Part of a spring is attached to the brake. The spring has free ends and urges the brake in a direction. A device for positioning the spring includes a partition wall on the inner surface of the lower half of the case which partitions the open case from the inside of the case. An independent abutment member on the partition wall abuts the free ends of the spring.

In a magnetic tape cassette of the type having a pivotable guard member for closing the cassette opening when the cassette is removed from a cassette machine, a braking member is coupled to the guard member and is urged into contact with the hubs upon closing of the guard member to prevent rotation of the hubs when the cassette is not in use.
摘要:
A tape cassette for a magnetic recording and/or reproducing apparatus, such as a video tape recorder. The cassette has at least one reel contained in a cassette casing formed with an opening through which a magnetic tape wound on the reel can be withdrawn from the casing for the recording of signals thereon or the reproducing of signals therefrom. A pivotally mounted member disposed within the casing comprises a brake lever for preventing the reel from rotating when the cassette is not in use. A helical compression spring normally urges the pivotally mounted member to rotate so as to bring the brake lever into engagement with teeth formed on a flange of the reel, and means is provided to overcome the action of the spring and release the brake lever from the reel when the cassette is to be used.

In a tape cassette for use in a magnetic recording and/or reproducing apparatus and which is of the type having at least one reel contained in a cassette casing formed with an opening through which a tape wound on the reel can be withdrawn from the cassette casing for the recording of signals thereon or reproducing the signals therefrom, tape guide members are arranged at opposite sides of the opening for guiding the tape in a path which extends along the opening, and a brake member provided to prevent the reel from rotating when the tape cassette is not used, an improvement is made wherein at least one tape guide member is integrally formed on the brake member. In one embodiment the tape guide member integrally formed on the brake member is distant from the pivotal axis of the brake member so as to alter the length of the tape path when the brake member is rotated.

A tape cassette having supply and take-up reels rotatably disposed in a housing and a supply of tape wound on the reels and extending between the latter is provided with a one-piece, molded-plastic braking member for each reel which is urged to an engaged position when the cassette is not in use by means of a spring of springs formed integrally with the braking member, and which is operative in such engaged position to securely hold the respective reel against rotation in the direction for unwinding the tape therefrom, while permitting substantially free rotation of the respective reel independently of the other in the direction for rewinding the tape on the reel.

In a cassette for use in a magnetic recording and/or reproducing apparatus, a housing contains rotatable reels on which a resiliently flexible tape is wound and the housing has an access opening extending along a side thereof through which the tape can be withdrawn for the recording and reproducing of signals thereon, guide members within the housing adjacent the opposite ends of the opening direct the tape between the reels in a path including a run extending along the opening and path portions extending from adjacent the ends of such opening tangentially to the outer turns of said tape wound on the respective reels, and at least one tape shifting member acts against a face of said tape in a respective one of the path portions. Each tape shifting member is mounted for movement in a course spaced from the adjacent guide member and is resiliently urged to a normal position in which the tape shifting member produces a bend in the related path portion between the respective guide member and reel so that turning of that reel in the tape unwinding direction enlarges the tape bend due to the resilient flexibility of the tape and transmission of the resulting slack in the tape to the tape run across the access opening is avoided. The tape shifting member is deflected from its normal position by the tape in response to a substantial tension in the latter for removing the bend from the respective path portion.

A tape cassette having a case body including an upper case and a lower case, a recessed portion formed on the side of a lower surface of the case body, and a slider so provided in the case body as to be slidable for opening and closing the recessed portion, is disclosed. The tape cassette further has a lock member positioned at an opening of the lower case to lock the slider in respective positions where the recessed portion is closed and opened, and a biasing member, supported at its two side ends with the opening being interposed therebetween by an inner surface of the lower case, for biasing the slider to a lock position.

A hub lock releasing structure for a tape recorder has a releasing pin for releasing a hub from a locked state by pressing a hub locking member installed on a tape cassette in one direction as the tape cassette settles on a deck. The releasing pin is integrally formed with the deck. In the hub lock releasing structure, since the releasing pin is integrally formed with the deck, the number of necessary components can be reduced and the assembly process can be simplified. A method of fabricating a releasing pin for the hub lock releasing structure comprises providing a deck in the tape recorder for receiving a tape cassette, partially cutting a portion of the deck, and bending the cut portion of the deck upward to form the releasing pin.

A tape cartridge having a right and left pair of reels around which a tape is wound, within a casing equipped with a front cover, a reel lock mechanism provided within the casing for preventing the reels from rotating, a release member is disposed on the inner, upper face of the bottom wall of the casing so as to be movable back and forth, a slider for opening and closing the lower face of the pocket for tape loading fitted to the outer, lower face of the bottom wall of the casing so as to be movable back and forth, such that when the slider moves backward, the release member is moved backward nearly at the terminating end of the backward travel stroke of the slider, so as the backward movement of the release member, the reel lock mechanism is moved, thereby releasing the reels from locking for rotation, thus, while the front cover is kept from any excessive upward opening force, the reels can be locked and released for rotation by the movement of the slider.
