Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a container for storing cassette tape recording bodies.

(Prior Art) In a conventional storage device for recording media of this type, cassette tapes are stored in a cassette case, and the cassette tapes placed in the cassette case are arranged in appropriate storage boxes.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) When organizing cassettes using such a conventional sorting box, in order to take out the necessary cassettes, it is necessary to take out the cassette case from the sorting box,
It requires two efforts to take out the cassette tape from the cassette case, and when returning a used cassette tape, it also requires two efforts: storing the cassette tape in the cassette case and storing it in the sorting box. In short, the handling of loading and unloading the cassette during use was complicated and troublesome.
In addition, since the size of the sorting box is fixed, if the number of cassettes to be stored is less than the storage capacity of the sorting box, the sorting box will occupy wasted space. It was a problem when I did it.

The present invention aims to solve these conventional problems. That is, with the present invention, loading and unloading the cassette tape is easy with just one operation.
It can be assembled into a size according to the number of items to be accommodated.
The purpose of this invention is to realize a cassette tape storage device that can be manufactured at low cost.

(Means for Solving the Problem) The cassette tape storage device of the present invention consists of a unit case that allows multiple tapes to be stacked and connected, and a cassette tape drawer that is pivotally supported by the unit case and can be opened and closed by rotation. It's summery.

First, the unit case is formed into a box having a rectangular top surface, a bottom surface, and side surfaces connecting these top and bottom surfaces, with at least one of these sides being open and a pivot at one corner. There are holes for. The cassette tape drawer has a rectangular plate part on which the cassette tape is placed, a protrusion formed on the plate part to stop the rotation of the cassette tape, and a pivot part for supporting the unit case in one corner. It consists of a protrusion that fits into the hole, and side walls provided on at least two edges of the rectangular plate portion.

On the other hand, the connecting part that connects the unit case has an engaging protrusion implanted on the top surface of the unit case.
An engagement recess formed at a position corresponding to the engagement protrusion on the lower surface, a bolt implanted near the rear edge of the surface on which the engagement protrusion is provided, and a bolt provided at a corresponding position on the back surface. a hole for passing the bolt of another storage container, a knob rotatably supported on the support plate at the position of the hole, a short shaft formed in the center of the knob, and a short shaft between the knob and the shaft. It consists of a bolt receiving part consisting of a screw hole passing through the center.

(Function) In the above configuration, the cassette tape is stored,
When taking out the cassette tape, the cassette tape is rotated to be pulled out from the unit case, and the cassette tape is placed on the rectangular plate or taken out.

In addition, when connecting the required number of unit cases, stack the unit cases by engaging the engaging protrusion with the engaging recess of another unit case, and then insert the bolt into the bolt receiver by passing the bolt through the hole in the other unit case. When the knob on the bolt receiving part is rotated, the bolt and screw hole are screwed together, and the unit cases are firmly connected. When disconnecting, rotate the knob on the bolt receiver to unscrew the bolt from the screw hole, and then disconnect. In this way, the required number of unit cases can be arbitrarily connected.

(Embodiment) FIGS. 1 to 5 show a cassette tape storage case according to an embodiment of the present invention. A cassette tape drawer 2 is connected to the unit case 1, and the cassette tape 9 is stored and taken out by rotating the cassette tape drawer 2 about the hole 3 of the pivot shaft. The cases 1 are used by being combined with each other as necessary.

Each unit case 1 has an engagement protrusion 11 implanted on one surface, and an engagement protrusion 11 on the back surface thereof.
An engagement recess 12 is formed at a position corresponding to 1. Further, a bolt 13 is planted near the rear edge of the surface where the engagement protrusion 11 is provided, and a hole 14 for passing the bolt 13 is provided at a corresponding position on the back surface. A bolt receiving portion 15 is arranged at the position. As shown in FIG. 4, the bolt receiving part 15 includes a knob 16, a short shaft part 17 formed in the center of the knob 16,
It consists of these knobs 16 and a screw hole 18 passing through the center of the shaft portion 17. This bolt receiving portion 15 is rotatably supported by a support plate 19. As shown in FIG. 5, a unit case 1 having such a connection mechanism has an engaging protrusion 11 inserted into an engaging recess 12 of another unit case, and a bolt 13 corresponding to a screw hole 18 of a bolt receiving part 15. By overlapping them so that they are aligned and turning the knob 16, the unit cases can be easily and firmly fixed to each other.

In this embodiment configured as described above, the cassette tape 9 can be immediately taken out and stored simply by rotating the cassette tape drawer 2, and the cassette case is first removed from the sorting box as in the conventional case. There is no need for complicated operations such as taking out the cassette tape and then taking out the cassette tape from the cassette case, making it very easy to handle. In addition, since the unit cases 1 can be easily connected or separated using the connecting member, the cassette tapes 9 can be organized by connecting the necessary number of units, and can be stored in a similar manner to a conventional organizing box. It has the advantage of not requiring extra space.

(Effects of the invention) As explained above, in the present invention, by rotating the cassette tape drawer, it is possible to easily take in and take out the cassette tape in one operation, and unlike the conventional case, the cassette case can be taken out from the sorting box first. This eliminates the need for complicated operations such as taking out the cassette tape from the cassette case.

In addition, you can organize the cassette tapes by connecting or separating the unit cases using the connecting parts and assembling them into a size appropriate to the number of units stored, so you do not need extra space like traditional organizing boxes. do not. In particular, a bolt and a bolt receiving part are arranged near the rear edge of the case, and by rotating the bolt receiving part, the mating bolt is screwed into the screw hole provided in the central shaft part, and the unit cases are joined together. Such a structure can be easily and firmly fixed to each other, and the structure is relatively simple, so it can be manufactured at low cost.
