Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a television having a built-in recording device for audio and video information.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, it is stored in a housing separate from a television receiver and a device for recording audio and video information such as a video tape recorder. For this reason, in order to record the audio and video information received by the TV receiver, at least two kinds of devices, a TV receiver and an information recording device, are prepared and these devices are connected to each other and used.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 As described above, in the conventional product, the TV receiver and the above information recording device each require a storage space, and the wiring work when combining them is troublesome. Moreover, when it is necessary to record a plurality of same information at the same time for dubbing, a plurality of information recording devices are further required, and an even larger space is required. Also, the wiring work at that time is more troublesome. The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a television having a new recording device which is easy to use and requires a small storage space.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, a television having a built-in recording device according to the present invention is provided with a television receiver in one housing and a plurality of recorders for recording video and audio information received by the television receiver. In addition, the recording medium insertion openings are provided at at least two positions on the upper, lower, left and right sides surrounding the cathode ray tube of the television receiver.

[0005]

[Action]

 According to the present invention, the television receiver and the recording unit such as a video tape recorder are stored in one housing, so wiring work is completely unnecessary and usability is improved. Also, dubbing can be performed without the need for special wiring, and moreover, the same information can be recorded, so that operability and usability are further improved.

【Example】

 First, FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a block diagram of an electric circuit of a television incorporating a recording device according to the present invention. A video tape recorder 6 which is a first recording section for recording the video and audio signals received by the television receiving section 2 and a video tape recorder 7 which is a second recording section are connected to the inside 1 of the housing. Further, an external device connection terminal 6a for guiding the reproduction output of the video tape recorder 6 to an external device (not shown) and an external connection terminal 7a for guiding the reproduction output of the video tape recorder 7 to the outside are connected. Reference numeral 8 is a selector switch for switching the input of the video tape recorder 7, and 9 is an antenna of the television receiver 2.

In the television having the built-in recording apparatus according to the present invention configured as described above, when the contacts 8a and 8c of the changeover switch 8 are connected as shown in the drawing, the reproduction output of the video tape recorder 6 is changed to the video output. Since the tape recorder 7 can be used for recording, dubbing can be performed by a simple operation. When the contacts 8b and 8c of the changeover switch 8 are connected, the received signal of the television receiver 2 is guided to the video tape recorders 6 and 7, and the two video tape recorders 6 and 7 simultaneously receive the television image. It is possible to record the received signal of the unit 2.

In the present embodiment, the two recording parts are constituted by the video tape recorder, but it is also possible to provide three or more recording parts. Also, instead of the video tape recorder, the recording medium may be a magneto-optical disk, and a recording unit capable of recording may be provided. If a plurality of sets of recording units are provided with terminals 6a and 7a for guiding the reproduction output signals of the video tape recorders 6 and 7 to an external device as in this embodiment, the usability is further improved.

An external view of an embodiment of a television having a recording device according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of an embodiment of a television incorporating a recording device according to the present invention, and a cathode ray tube 3 of a television image receiving portion 2 shown in a block diagram of an electric circuit of FIG. To be done. Further, on the left and right sides of the cathode ray tube 3 on the front panel 1a, respective recording medium insertion ports of the video tape recorders 6 and 7 incorporated in the housing 1, that is, cassette insertion ports 4 and 5 are provided. The cassette insertion ports 4 and 5 may be arranged at at least two positions on the upper, lower, left and right sides surrounding the Brown tube, and needless to say, are not limited to both sides of the Braun tube 3 as in the embodiment.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the two cassette insertion ports 4 and 5 are for VHS. However, it goes without saying that both of these cassette insertion ports 4 and 6 can be used for 8 mm or for a magneto-optical disk.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

 According to the present invention, as described above, at least two sets of a television image receiving portion and a recording portion for recording the video and audio information received by the television image receiving portion are provided in one housing, and the upper and lower portions surrounding the cathode ray tube of the television image receiving portion are provided. Since the recording medium insertion port is provided at any place on the left and right, wiring work is not required and usability is improved.Dubbing and recording of multiple identical information are also possible without the need for special wiring. Therefore, the operability and usability are further improved.
