Magazine and device for a variety of recording media

The invention relates to a magazine and device for transporting and operating a variety of recording media for Recording and / or reproduction of information, in particular of magnetic foils in flat rectangular containers for writing and / or reading operation "

It is a magazine for storing stacked card-shaped data carriers ^ in particular punch cards through the DT-AS 21 19 418. This magazine has recesses on the bottom, can be placed on a card transport, and transport rollers pass through the recesses to the bottom card and push it into the device, and the card can after passing fierät through the through exne input f oil nurig exert an opposite magazine from a discharge opening at the bottom of a magazine page out \ page are conveyed back and is incident on the flat in the magazine on the \ stack cards lying on the ground, on the top! side the magazine has a handle for handling » ^k ·

I In the known magazine they are once in a sequence \

filled recording medium only in this order serially removable and operable in the device. The magazine is £ also not stackable and because of its shape only difficult to manufacture "

There are also known projection devices for slides, which are available in magazines for devices for serial automatic projection ,, Such a projection device and a magazine for this is known, for example, with the German utility model 75 16 360. The magazine is provided on its underside with longitudinal grooves and transverse recesses, by means of which a gradual longitudinal movement on the

associated transport device of the projection device is made possible. The magazines can be archived if a cover part contains the magazine and the slides in it closes to the outside. The magazine and device are specially designed for slides and not simply for other types of slides Recording media, e.g. usable for flexible magnetic foils in flat protective covers.

It is the object of the present invention to provide a magazine and device for transporting and operating a large number of recording media, in particular of magnetic foils in sleeves, by means of which an expedient operation not only in series ν can be carried out in a predetermined sequence of the recording media and by means of which improved handling and improved protection for the recording media can be achieved with simple training and inexpensive production.

The object is achieved according to the invention with a magazine and device for transporting and operating a large number of recording media for recording and / or reproducing information, in particular magnetic foils in flat, envelope-like containers for writing and / or reading operation, according to the invention by a magazine with a substantially parallelepiped-shaped receiving part with a plurality of compartments for Aufzeich-: r drying carrier, with a cover part for completing the befind- in the receiving part \ loan recording medium, 1

a releasable locking device between the receiving part and the cover part,

a guide part connected to the receiving part and one provided on the device for engaging with the guide part trained slide part.

Such a magazine and device training in which a use of the magazine only on the device according to the invention or, more precisely, on the transport of the device, can be used for any recording medium, in particular for such with great need for dust protection and non-serial access;

need to be used with advantage. ;

In a further expedient embodiment according to the invention, the receiving part can be an approximately right-angled one fastened on the outside of the floor Have element, the horizontal angle part of the guide part and the vertical angle part of which is a handle form for the receiving part. This enables a magazine that can be manufactured very expediently.

In order to achieve a simple archiving of several magazines, the cover part according to the invention can be open on one side Be designed as a hollow cuboid, which has a recessed grip molded into a wall.

Appropriately, according to the invention, the locking device

device from a hook extension on the handle of the receiving part j and an opening or recess in which the handle piece i

exist adjacent wall of the cover part. This becomes a

ί very easy locking of the receptacle and cover part!

achieved with a very simple and inexpensive manufacturing possibility. ί

In a further advantageous embodiment according to the invention, the magazine according to the invention can be designed in such a way that that the wall opposite the wall adjacent to the handle has a support extension which delimits the open side of the cover part for the receiving part on which the receiving part after the hook extension has snapped into place in the opening or recess of the cover part comes to rest. A locking device which is structurally very favorable is thus obtained.

According to the invention, the device for the magazine can expediently be designed in such a way that the slide part rests on slide rods Is mounted longitudinally displaceable and a guide groove for engaging the magazine-side guide part. As a result, a constructive solution for simple and precise shifting or "positioning of the" is created without additional means Magazine reachable.
