JPH01192074A - Cassette tape recorder - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent impairing from being generated at the time of loading/ unloading the tape by displaying the remaining quantity of the tape on the internal plane of a transparent cassette cover, and providing plural muscle shape projecting parts which become a patch at the time of loading/unloading the tape. CONSTITUTION:The plural muscle shape projecting parts 13 are located between a pair of reels so as to display the remaining quantity of a cassette tape, and provided on the internal plane of the cover 11 so as to prevent the inside flat part of the cover 11 from being impaired at the time of loading/unloading the tape 14. Each projecting part 13 is formed in such a way that the parts located at both sides are formed in lengthy size and the ones located in the inside of them in short size, and length parts prevent the impairing from being generated and the short parts display the remaining quantity of the tape.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cassette tape recorder in which a cassette lid is provided with a tape remaining amount display function.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, in the field of cassette tape recorders, particularly headphone stereos, due to the diversification of design functions, cassette tape recorders have been proposed in which a portion of the conventional cassette tape recorder is transparent, but the cassette cover body is completely transparent.

FIG. 3 shows a conventional cassette tape recorder.

In FIG. 3, numeral 1 is a cassette lid that can be opened and closed on a main body 2 having a mechanism for driving a cassette tape, and 3 is a transparent window thereof. As shown in the figure, the cassette lid 1, which has a part as a transparent window, is provided with a convex lip 4 on the inner surface or the transparent part is made concave to prevent damage to the transparent part when the cassette tape is attached or removed. It is prevented.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in conventional devices, when the area occupied by the transparent window section becomes large or the entire cassette lid body becomes transparent, a convex lip or concave structure is required to prevent scratches on the transparent section. There was a problem in that it became impossible to remove the transparent part, and it was impossible to take measures to prevent the transparent part from being scratched.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a cassette tape recorder that looks good and is capable of preventing scratches when attaching and detaching a cassette tape.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the cassette tape recorder of the present invention displays the remaining amount of cassette tape on the inner surface of a transparent cassette lid body and serves as a support when attaching or removing the cassette tape. It has several striped protrusions like this.

Effect of the present invention With the above-described configuration, the cassette half always comes into contact with the linear convex portion when the cassette tape is attached or detached, and the inner flat surface of the cassette lid is less likely to be damaged. Also, when viewed from the front, the striped protrusion also serves as an indicator of the remaining amount of cassette tape.
It is possible to realize a cassette tape recorder including a cassette lid that is entirely transparent.

EMBODIMENT A cassette tape recorder according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a cassette tape recorder in one embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 11 denotes a transparent cassette lid which is configured to be openable and closable on a main body 12 that has a mechanism for driving a cassette tape, and has a plurality of striped protrusions 13.
is located between a pair of reels to display the remaining amount of cassette tape, and to prevent damage to the inner flat surface of the cassette lid body 11 when the cassette tape 14 is attached or detached, as shown in FIG. is provided on the inner surface of the cassette lid 11.

Here, the plurality of striped convex portions 13 are formed such that those located on both sides are long, and those located on the inside are short.
The long ones mainly contribute to preventing scratches, and the short ones contribute to displaying the remaining amount of tape.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the present invention provides a plurality of striped protrusions on the inner surface of a transparent cassette lid body to display the remaining amount of cassette tape and to provide support when attaching or removing the cassette tape. Therefore, the cassette cover does not look unsightly when viewed from the surface, and this is a very effective measure to prevent scratches when attaching and removing the cassette tape.
