摘要:
A reel brake device for a tape reel of a magnetic tape cassette has a pair of braking strips for a supply reel and a take-up reel. The braking strips are formed with at least one hinged section to allow resilient deformation in order to absorb kinematic energy exerted on the braking strips from the tape reel as the reel is subjected to rotational torque or lateral force. By providing the capability of resilient deformation for the braking strips, braking engagement can be maintained even when vibration exerting rotational force is applied to the tape reels.

A tape cassette arrangement includes structures formed integrally with the cassette halves or simply fitted into the light transmission apertures. Specific embodiments of the invention include light polarizing elements which are fitted into apertures formed in the sides of the cassette, corrugations on the interior of the cassette proximate the apertures, and shielding walls which are located to block light and in particular that light which tends to enter through a large window provided in the upper surface of the cassette and through which the status of the tape is visible.

A tape cassette for video or audio units which consists of a housing having an upper half and a lower half, the upper half being composed mainly of an opaque material, the upper half having a transparent window portion on the upper wall thereof. A cover portion is laminated to the upper half, the cover portion being composed of a transparent material, the window portion consisting of a single layer of the transparent material, with an additional portion of the upper half formed of a double layer of the transparent material and the opaque material.

A tape reel for a magnetic tape cassette can accurately hold upper and lower reel flanges parallel to each other. The tape reel for a magnetic tape cassette comprises a reel hub assembly including a first reel flange and a cylindrical reel hub integral with the first reel flange and extending from the center of the first flange. The cylindrical reel hub has a support surface at the end remote from the first reel flange onto which to mount a second reel flange. A fastener and a second reel support projection are formed on the support surface of the reel hub. The fastener fastens the second reel flange on the support surface. The second reel support projection is formed on the support surface. The second reel flange support projection has a plane opposing the second reel flange accurately parallel to the first reel flange. Since the area of the second reel support projection is substantially smaller than that of the support surface of the reel hub, it is possible to hold the face opposing the second reel flange accurately parallel to the first flange. Therefore, the second reel flange supported by the second reel flange support projection can be accurately held parallel to the first reel flange.
摘要:
In a tape cassette having supply and take-up reels on which a tape extending between the reels is wound, a cassette housing containing the reels, leaf springs for urging the reels toward the lower portion of the housing, and headed pins depending from an upper portion of the housing through holes in the leaf springs for mounting the latter; each leaf spring has a surface portion adjacent the respective hole formed with fine convex and concave irregularities and being engaged by the respective headed pin for securely holding the leaf springs against turning and wobbling about the headed pins.
摘要:
A tape cassette reel molding apparatus which includes upper and lower opposed molds for forming upper and lower flanges of the tape cassette reel and first and second hub molds provided between the upper and lower molds, the first and second hub molds each having an opposing face which has a semicylindrical cavity therein, at least one of the first and second hub molds being slidable in a direction parallel to the face of the upper mold and away from the other of the first and second hub molds so that when the upper and lower molds and the first and second hub molds are slid into position against each other, the respective cavities therein are all contiguous and a unitary tape cassette reel can be molded.
摘要:
A magnetic tape cassette is provided with a pivotal closure lid pivotably secured to opposite edges of a casing for movement between a closed position, in which the front opening of the casing through which a magnetic tape can be extracted for loading onto a rotary head while not in use, and an open position wherein the closure lid is pivoted away from said opening to allow access to the tape while in use, is also provided with a sliding closure member slidably mounted on one face of the casing and cooperative with the aforementioned pivotal closure lid, which sliding closure member is held either in a closed position while the pivotal closure lid is in its closed position to cover a bottom spacing through while a device constituting part of a tape handling mechanism may be inserted, or an open position while the pivotal closure lid is in its open position to allow the aforementioned device of the tape handling mechanism to engage the casing through the bottom spacing for extracting the tape for loading onto the rotary head, and is retained at least in the closed by means of a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism comprises a pair of locking members provided adjacent both lateral sides of the magnetic tape cassette and are associated with the cassette casing. The pair of locking members are adapted to resiliently establish locking engagement with the sliding closure member at locations adjacent both lateral sides of the magnetic tape cassette.
摘要:
An apparatus for measuring flow rate of powders or granules forced out off the periphery of a loading table to fall down gravitationally. Deflector members arranged within the gravitational fall path of the powders or granules are subjected to a rotary force by impingement thereon of the powders or granules. Flow rate is measured as proportional to the moment for rotation.
摘要:
A tape cassette reel includes a reel hub integrally formed with a wing shaped upper flange and a disc shaped lower flange by means of a molding apparatus having one or more sliding cores operable between upper and lower molds.
摘要:
A cassette reel in use for a video tape cassette including a hub and an upper flange made of a transparent plate which is provided with an annular groove on one side surface of the upper flange and a foil deposited on the surface of the upper flange which is surrounded by the annular groove, so that the foil can be cut clearly and then deposited on the face of the upper flange which is surrounded by the annular groove by hot stamp with a clear outer profile, whereby decorative effects can be obtained by the foil covering the internal construction of the hub and when the cassette reel is used for a video tape cassette, the commercial value of the video tape cassette can be elevated.
