Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent temperature rise in a device main body and to prevent the entering of dirt and dust even in a factory or a dusty place by providing an air inlet port and an outlet port to suck and exhaust the internal air. CONSTITUTION:A pipe 9a of an air sending device 8a is connected to an air inlet port 2a of a closed type floppy disk device main body 1 by a nipple 6, and a pipe 9b of an air exhausting device 8b is connected to an air outlet port 2b by the nipple 6. The air from the air sending device 8a is sent from the air inlet port 2a to the inside of the device main body 1, it is circulated in the main body, and heated air 4 is exhausted from the air outlet port 2b of the device main body 1, and the inside of the device main body 1 is ventilated. Thus, the temperature rise is prevented, pressure in the device main body is slightly higher than circumferences by circulating the air 4, and the entering of the dirt and dust, etc., can be prevented.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a sealed floppy disk device.

[Conventional technology]

A floppy disk drive has a built-in drive mechanism for the floppy disk as a medium, which is a source of heat, but conventionally, even in sealed floppy disk drives, no special consideration was given to internal cooling and ventilation. There wasn't.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

Since the conventional hermetically sealed floppy disk device mentioned above is hermetically sealed, it is difficult to dissipate heat, and when used for a long time, the temperature rises significantly.Also, when the medium is inserted, a gap is created between the shutter and the medium, and dust is generated. The disadvantage is that it is easy for dirt and dust to enter.

An object of the present invention is to provide a floppy disk device that solves the above problems.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve the above object, the floppy disk device according to the present invention has an air intake port and an air exhaust port for supplying and exhausting internal air in the closed type floppy disk device main body.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1(a) is a plan view showing one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1(b) is a front view thereof.

As shown in the figure, the present invention is a closed type floppy disk device main body 1 having an air intake port 2a and an exhaust port 2b for supplying and exhausting internal air, and a filter 7 is provided in the air intake port 2a.

FIG. 2 shows the usage state of the floppy disk device of the present invention, that is, the closed type floppy disk device main body 1.
A pipe 9a of an air blower 8a is connected to the air suction port 2a of the air blower 8a through a nipple 6, and a vibrator 9b of an air exhaust device 8b is connected to the air exhaust port 2b through the nipple 6.

Air from the air blower 8a is sent into the device main body 1 through the air intake port 2a, circulated therein, and unheated air 4 is released from the air exhaust port 2b of the device main body 1,
The inside of the device body 1 is ventilated to prevent temperature rise. Further, by circulating the air 4, the pressure inside the main body 1 of the apparatus becomes slightly higher than that of the surroundings, and it is possible to prevent dirt, dust, etc. from entering.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, it is possible to prevent a rise in temperature within the apparatus main body, and to prevent the intrusion of dirt, dust, etc., even at a factory site or a place with a lot of dust.
