Abstract
Description
L'invention se rapporte à un boîtier, plus particulièrement mais non exclusivement, pour vidéo-cassettes, c'est à-dire pour cassette contenant soit un film préalablement impressionné, soit une bande magnétique permettant llenregis- trem~nt et la reproduction à volonté d'un programme de télévision. The invention relates to a housing, more particularly but not exclusively, for video cassettes, that is to say for a cassette containing either a film previously impressed, or a magnetic tape allowing llenregis- trem ~ nt and reproduction at will of a television program.
Du fait de la présentation analogue, à une échelle certes différente, de la vidéo-cassette et de la mini-cassette, pour laquelle un bottier satisfaisant est depuis longtemp connu, le bottier de la vidéo-cassette constitue une extrapolation du boiter de la mini-cassette. Due to the similar presentation, on a admittedly different scale, of the video cassette and the mini cassette, for which a satisfactory boot maker has long been known, the boot of the video cassette constitutes an extrapolation of the box of the mini -cassette.
C'est ainsi que chacun de ces deux types de bottier de cassette comprend un fond sur lequel s'articule, autour d'un axe jouxtant le bord longitudinal arrière du bottier, un couvercle constitué de la face supérieure et du bord arrière du bottier mais aussi d'un rebord réalisant la fraction arrière de la face infrieure du boîtier et délimitant, avec la face supérieure et le bord arrière, une rainure de largeur au moins égale à l'épaisseur de la cassette et de hauteur suffisante pour entraîner le soulèvement de la cassette dès l'ouverture du couvercle. Each of these two types of cassette boot includes a bottom on which is articulated, around an axis adjoining the rear longitudinal edge of the boot, a cover consisting of the upper face and the rear edge of the boot but also of a rim carrying out the rear fraction of the lower face of the housing and delimiting, with the upper face and the rear edge, a groove of width at least equal to the thickness of the cassette and of sufficient height to cause the lifting of the cassette as soon as the lid is opened.
A chacune de ses extrémités, la rainure présente une petite plaque transversale reliant le rebord à la base de la face supérige. At each of its ends, the groove has a small transverse plate connecting the rim to the base of the upper face.
Le fond/quant à lui constitué de la fraction de la face inférieure qui nest pas formée par le rebord du couvercle, du bord longitudinal avant et des bords transversaux dont les extrémités arrières prives de l'entretoisement de la face inférieure présentent une certaine souplesse,
Avec un boîtier ainsi réalisé, le couvercle ne double jamais l'épaisseur du fond sauf au niveau des plaques de fermeture de la rainure du couvercle que doublent les extré- mités arrières des bords transversaux du fond et ce, afin que chacun de ces doubles éléments puissent porter les moyens d'articulation du couvercle sur le fond.The bottom / meanwhile consisting of the fraction of the underside which is not formed by the rim of the cover, the front longitudinal edge and transverse edges whose rear ends deprived of the bracing of the underside have a certain flexibility,
With a case thus produced, the cover never doubles the thickness of the bottom except at the level of the closing plates of the groove of the cover which the rear ends of the transverse edges of the bottom double, so that each of these double elements can carry the means of articulation of the cover on the bottom.
Ces moyens d'articulation sont formés d'un doigt solidaire d'un des éléments et qui s'engage dans un orifice que présente l'autre élément. Pour cet engagement, les extrémi tés arrières des bords transversaux sont écartées élastique- ment, en bénéficiant pour cela de leur souplesse précitée. These articulation means are formed by a finger integral with one of the elements and which engages in an orifice presented by the other element. For this engagement, the rear ends of the transverse edges are spaced apart, thereby benefiting from their aforementioned flexibility.
Dans certaines réalisations, au fond sont solidarisées deux pattes s'engageant chacune dans l'axe de l1une dss bo- bines de la cassette pour en interdire la rotations
A une certaine distance de l'axe d'articulation, chacun des doubles éléments porte egalement des moyens de frei- nage de l'ouverture formes d'un orifice de l'un des éléments dans lequel s'engage une légère excroissance de l'autre élé- ment.In some embodiments, at the bottom are secured two tabs each engaging in the axis of one of the cassette spools to prevent rotation
At a certain distance from the articulation axis, each of the double elements also carries means for braking the opening, which forms an orifice in one of the elements in which a slight protrusion of the another element.
Afin de limiter la pénétration du couvercle dans le fond, les bords transversaux et le bord avant du fond portent sur une certaine hauteur des nervures dont la partie supérieu- re de chacune d'elles réalise une butée sur laquelle appuie le couvercle. In order to limit the penetration of the cover into the bottom, the transverse edges and the front edge of the bottom bear ribs over a certain height, the upper part of each of which forms a stop on which the cover rests.
Malheureusement ces nervures limitent notablement la place disponible dans le boitier et, surtouts si elles par viennent à maintenir plane une face superieure d'un boiter de mini-cassette dont les dimensions sont très limites, ne sauraient suffire à maintenir plane la face supérieure durs boRtier de video-cassette qui est une fois et demie plus large et deux fois plus longue que la dite mini-cassette. Unfortunately these ribs significantly limit the space available in the case and, especially if they come to keep flat an upper face of a mini-cassette box whose dimensions are very limited, would not be enough to keep the upper surface flat hard case video cassette which is one and a half times wider and twice as long as the so-called mini-cassette.
Un résultat que l'invention vise à obtenir, est un bol- tier du type cité plus haut, dont le couvercle est parfaitement raidi transversalement et longitudinalement, et ce, de plus sans pour autant réduire la place disponible dans le bottier. A result which the invention aims to obtain is a bowl of the type mentioned above, the cover of which is perfectly stiffened transversely and longitudinally, and this, moreover without reducing the space available in the shoemaker.
A cet effet, elle a pour objet un tel boîtier notamment caractérise en ce qu1il comprend des moyens de raidissage de la face supérieure du boîtier, au moins dans l'un de ses sens transversal ou longitudinal. To this end, it relates to such a housing, in particular characterized in that it comprises means for stiffening the upper face of the housing, at least in one of its transverse or longitudinal directions.
L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description ci-après faite, à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard du dessin ci-annexé qui représente
- figure 1. : le boîtier ouvert, en vue de face partielle ;
- figure 2. : une coupe selon II-II de la figure 1
- figure 3. : le boîtier fermé dans une coupe selon un plan semblable à celui de la figure 2.The invention will be better understood with the aid of the description given below, by way of nonlimiting example with regard to the attached drawing which represents
- Figure 1.: the open housing, in partial front view;
- Figure 2.: a section on II-II of Figure 1
- Figure 3.: the closed housing in a section along a plane similar to that of Figure 2.
De manière connue, ce boîtier de vidéo-cassette comprend un fond 1 sur lequel un couvercle 2 s'articule autour d'un axe 3 jouxtant le bord longitudinal arrière 4 du boîtier. In known manner, this video-cassette unit comprises a bottom 1 on which a cover 2 is articulated around an axis 3 adjoining the rear longitudinal edge 4 of the unit.
Le couvercle 2 est constitué de la face supérieure 5 et du bord arrière 4 du boîtier mais aussi d'un rebord 6 réalisant la fraction 6 arrière de la face inférieure 7 du boîtier et délimitant, avec la face supérieure 5 et le- bord arrière 4, une rainure 8 logeant la vidéo-cassette. The cover 2 consists of the upper face 5 and the rear edge 4 of the housing but also of a rim 6 forming the rear fraction 6 of the lower face 7 of the housing and delimiting, with the upper face 5 and the rear edge 4 , a groove 8 housing the video cassette.
La rainure 8 est fermée à ses extrémités par une plaque transversale 9. The groove 8 is closed at its ends by a transverse plate 9.
Le fond est, quant à lui, constitué de la fraction 10 de la face inférieure 7 qui n'est pas formée par le rebord 6 du couvercle 2, du bord longitudinal avant il et des bords transversaux 12 dont les extrémités arrières 13, priées de l'entretoisement de la face inférieure 10 sont relativement souples. The bottom, for its part, consists of the fraction 10 of the lower face 7 which is not formed by the rim 6 of the cover 2, of the longitudinal edge before it and of the transverse edges 12 whose rear ends 13, required to the bracing of the lower face 10 are relatively flexible.
Ces extrémités arrières 13 portent chacune sur leur face interne, un doigt 14 s'engageant dans un orifice 15 de la plaque de fermeture 9 sur laquelle elle s'appuie élastiquement. These rear ends 13 each carry on their internal face, a finger 14 engaging in an orifice 15 of the closure plate 9 on which it rests elastically.
Ces extrémités 13 présentent en outre chacune un orifice 16 dans lequel, en position boîtier fermé, tombe une excroissance 17 portée par la plaque de fermeture 9. These ends 13 also each have an orifice 16 in which, in the closed housing position, a projection 17 falls carried by the closure plate 9.
Selon une caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, afin de raidir transversalement la face supérieure du boîtier, celle-ci porte de chaque côté une nervure 18 qui,en plus,compl te le calage latéral de la video-cassette~
De préférence, chacune des ces nervures 18 est située dans le prolongement de la plaque 9 de fermeture de la rainure 8.According to an essential characteristic of the invention, in order to stiffen transversely the upper face of the housing, the latter carries on each side a rib 18 which, in addition, complies the lateral setting of the video cassette ~
Preferably, each of these ribs 18 is situated in the extension of the plate 9 for closing the groove 8.
Selon une autre caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, le bord longitudinal avant 11 présente à la partie suprieure de sa face interne un décrochement 19 réalisant, tout au long du bord avant, une double margelle d'appui longitudinal du couverclewdont un appui pour le bord 20 de sa face inférieure sur le fond, et un appui pour le bord longitudinal avant du fond contre le champ avant 21 du couvercle interdisant ainsi toute déformation du boRtierP,7pression dans un sens ou dans un autre, ce qui évite donc son écrasement, ne serait ce que lors de son conditionnement sous film retractable. According to another essential characteristic of the invention, the front longitudinal edge 11 has, at the upper part of its internal face, a recess 19 providing, along the front edge, a double longitudinal support coping of the cover, including a support for the edge 20 of its underside on the bottom, and a support for the front longitudinal edge of the bottom against the front field 21 of the cover thus preventing any deformation of the housing, 7pressure in one direction or another, which therefore prevents it from being crushed, does not would be that when it is shrink wrapped.
Les vidéo-cassettes, connues à ce jour, sont de deux longueur différentes ; Afin de garder au boîtier un meme format et, par la même occasion, le même habillage et/ou "jacquette", les deux types de boîtier sont réalises aux dimensions de la plus grande vidéo-cassette et au moins ceux des boîtiers appelés à loger les plus petites vidéo-cassettes, présentent, solidarisés au fond 1, des picots 22 de positionnement et de calage des petites vidéo-cassettes. The video cassettes, known to date, are of two different lengths; In order to keep the same format and, at the same time, the same packaging and / or "jacket", the two types of case are made to the dimensions of the largest video cassette and at least those of the boxes called to house the smallest video cassettes have, joined to the bottom 1, pins 22 for positioning and setting the small video cassettes.
