摘要:
A tape recording deck employs a capstan, transducer, and precision tape guide all mounted in fixed aligned position and immovable during use. The cassette has a minimum of parts, none of which need high precision manufacture, and can be inserted into and removed from the deck with a unidirectional motion.

An exhaust gas manifold for an internal combustion engine in which there is provided an outer shell including an outer sleeve having a pair of end caps closing the ends thereof. An inner shell is carried within the outer shell and is formed by a plurality of slidably interfit inner sleeves which are supported in spaced relation to the outer sleeve on mounting members mounted on a second pair of end caps closing the ends of said inner shell and connected to said first pair of end caps. A plurality of inlet conduits and an outlet conduit are connected to said outer shell, and a plurality of inlet conduits and an outlet conduit are also connected to said inner shell with the conduits on said inner shell being carried in, and movable with respect to, the conduits on said outer shell.

A novel magnetic disc recording cassette is provided as a thin polygonal cassette housing containing a disc of flexible magnetic recording media. A drive hub attached to the media is exposed through the cassette and cooperates with a complementary drive hub in a deck which receives the cassette in slot-loading fashion into a carriage which in turn positions the cassette for driving of the recording disc. The cassette and disc may be single or double sided, and includes access opening for a magnetic transducer to follow different circular tracks, or a helical track. The thin magnetic disc is provided with backing in the cassette to assure compliant interface of the transducer with the magnetic recording disc. The backing may be a backing sheet, discs of backing material, or felt surfaced shims adjacent the region of interface with the transducer. Passages are provided for air flow in response to rotation of the recording disc to provide a continuing smooth and minimum friction rotation of the disc within the cassette. The cassette is supported either on the base of the carriage or by a separately adjustable three point suspension system.

A cassette containing a magnetic recording media has a rotatably mounted hub connected to the media and provided with at least one face having a plurality of circularly arranged radially extending and axially facing undercut teeth. A complementary drive hub is provided in a deck to receive the cassette. The drive and driven hubs are brought into engagement, preferably by interacting alignment members on the two hubs, and the complementary undercut teeth cause the two hubs to mesh for positive driving engagement in one direction. The hubs are capable of overrunning in the opposite direction of rotation.

An electric shears in which there is provided a housing having swingably interconnected first and second cutting blades mounted therein and projecting outwardly therefrom. A gear train is mounted within the housing and is interconnected between a reversable electric motor and said second blade for moving said second blade with respect to said first blade. A manually manipulatable switch assembly is mounted on said housing and is coupled through a second switch assembly for actuating said motor to drive said gear train in a first direction to cause the cutting blades to open and close. A cam driven by the gear train is engageable with said second switch assembly for selectively opening and closing said assembly to control said motor to drive said gear train in a second direction for an interval sufficient to position the cutting blades in an open position and deactuate said motor.
摘要:
A roll of recording tape has a flexible leader attached to its outer end, and the leader has flanges with independently flexible teeth extending to one side and spaced to embrace the outermost layers of the roll. The leader will likewise grip a take-up hub in a self-threading transport system. The teeth taper inward and can grip the tape pack of can grip into a recess formed in the hub rim.

A magnetic disc recorder is provided with an edge loading carriage having provisions to receive and locate a disc cassette relative to a drive hub. The carriage is movable between a loading position where cassette may be inserted or removed, and a playing position where the drive hub engages a complementary hub in the cassette and a transducer interfaces with the record disc in the cassette. The carriage includes a latch retaining the cassette in the operating position, and an ejector functioning to unload the cassette partially in the loading position.

A method of forming a slidable interconnection between a tube and an opening in a plate. In accordance with one form of the disclosure said tube is inserted through an opening in said plate and a pair of annular projections are formed on said tube. Prior to forming said projections, a first washer is placed on the tube on one side of said plate and a second washer and a collar formed from an easily destructible material are placed on the tube on the opposite side of the plate with said collar carried against one face of said plate. Said projections are brought into binding engagement with said washers. After said projections are disposed in such binding engagement, the collar is removed to reduce the tightness of the fit between said washers and the plate.

A punch assembly mounted on a press having a cylinder provided with a ram reciprocally movable with respect to a pair of cooperating dies for forming bends in pipe. The punch assembly is provided with a guide movable with said ram and supporting a slide having the punch mounted thereon. A second cylinder is carried from the guide and is provided with a ram for moving the slide and punch normal to the plane of movement of the press ram to dispose said punch in a retracted position out of the plane of said pair of dies to facilitate removal of the bent pipe from the punch.
