Conventional configurations and their problems In recent years, many cassette lid devices having a hinge structure have come into use to help reduce the size and weight of cassette tape recorders. A conventional cassette lid device will be explained below. FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a conventional cassette tape recorder. In the figure, 1 is a front cabinet, which is fitted and fixed to a rear cabinet 2. As shown in FIG. Reference numeral 4 indicates a mechanism of the cassette tape recorder, in which the tape cassette 7 is always held at the head 4-1 by a cassette tape presser lifting spring 4-1.
Pressing to the 3rd side. A presser spring 6 for pressing the tape cassette 7 toward the mechanism 4 is fixed to the cassette lid 3, and the cassette lid 3 is supported by a hinge 9 so as to be rotatable about a rotating shaft 11. There is. The hinge 9 is fixed to the cassette lid 3 by fixing means 8, and is also fixed to the front cabinet 1 by screws 10. Here, the hinge 9 requires two mounting plates 9-1 and 9-2 as shown in FIG. 2, and the mounting plates 9-1 and 9-2 have mutually curled shaft mounting portions 9 -4,9-3 are formed multiple times,
A rotating shaft 11 serving as a center of rotation is inserted into these mounting portions 9-4, 9-3, and a mounting plate 9-3 is inserted into the mounting portions 9-4 and 9-3.
A wire spring 12 having a coil portion for repelling the mounting plates from each other is inserted into the rotating shaft 11 so as to be located in the center of the mounting plates 1 and 9-2, and both ends 12-
1 and 12-2 are brought into contact with mounting plates 9-1 and 9-2, respectively. However, in the above configuration, it is necessary to insert the wire spring 12 during assembly,
The process of assembling the wire spring 12 is to first forcibly hold both ends 12-1 and 12-2 of the wire spring 12 in the repulsive direction using some kind of jig, and then attach the rotating shaft 11 to the coil portion of the wire spring 12. Since it must be assembled while being inserted, it has the drawbacks of being highly dangerous and difficult to assemble. In addition, since the hinge is composed of two mounting plates, it is an expensive device for rotating the cassette lid.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention supports a cassette lid so as to be rotatable about a rotating shaft provided on a mounting plate, and a coil inserted into one end of the rotating shaft. Both ends of a wire spring having a portion are brought into contact with a tongue portion extending to one end of the mounting plate and an inner surface of the cassette lid corresponding to the tongue portion, and the wire spring closes the cassette lid. It is configured to apply a biasing force in the direction of opening the body,
The cassette lid is further characterized in that a notch is provided inwardly from a portion of the cassette lid where the tongue portion faces, into which the end of the wire spring is inserted before coming into contact with the tongue portion. It is something to do. According to this configuration, a wire spring is fitted in a portion near the end of insertion of the rotating shaft for rotatably supporting the cassette lid with respect to the mounting plate, and one end of the wire spring is connected to the cassette lid. Since the wire spring has entered the notch and no repulsive force is acting on it, the work of hanging the wire spring to open the cassette lid becomes easy, and the cassette lid can be opened at a low cost. It is possible to configure the device.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS FIG. 4 is a front view of a cassette lid device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 3 is a cassette lid body, and this cassette lid body 3 has convex ribs 3-4 for rotatably supporting a plurality of curled portions 9-3 formed on the mounting plate 9. A plurality of rotary shafts 11 are formed, and a rotating shaft 11 serving as the center of rotation of the cassette lid 3 is inserted into the curled portion 9-3 of the mounting plate 9. A plurality of approximately U-shaped ribs 3-3 are formed on the cassette lid 3 to receive the rotating shaft 11. Further, a tongue piece 9-7 extending outward from the center of the cassette lid is formed at one end of the mounting plate 9, and the cassette lid 3 and the mounting plate 9 are repelled by this tongue piece 9-7. One end 12-2 of the wire spring 12 that applies the biasing force is in contact with the wire spring 12.
One end 12-1 of the cassette lid 3 is in contact with the cassette lid 3. Note that the coil portion of the wire spring 12 is fitted into the rotating shaft 12. A notch 3-2 is formed in a portion of the cassette lid 3 facing one end 12-2 of the wire spring.

In such a configuration, the curled portion 9-3 of the mounting plate 9 is held between the convex ribs 3-4 and 3-5 provided at one end of the cassette lid 3, and the rotating shaft 11 is inserted from the left side. As a result, the convex rib 3-4 formed on the cassette lid 3 and the approximately U-shaped rib 3
Curled portion 9-3 formed on the mounting plate 9 by -3
and rotary shaft 11 are rotatably supported. When the rotating shaft 11 is inserted, the wire spring 12 is simultaneously inserted into the shaft. At this time, one end 12-1 of the wire spring 12 inserted into the rotating shaft 11 is locked to the cassette lid 3, and the other end 12-2 is inserted into the notch 3-2 formed in the cassette lid 3. By setting the repulsive force P of the wire spring 12 to be 0 or a negative force, the ease of assembling the wire spring 12 is significantly improved. Thereafter, one end 12-2 of the wire spring 12, which is locked in the notch 3-2 of the cassette lid 3, is moved toward the direction A while also moving toward the direction B, and the tongue portion 9 of the mounting plate 9 is moved toward the direction A.
-7, it is possible to easily obtain a predetermined repulsive force P.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, the cassette lid can be rotatably supported and biased in the opening direction without using the conventional hinge structure. Moreover, since the wire spring that applies the biasing force enters the notch and the biasing force is not applied, it has the advantage that it can be assembled by a simple operation of inserting the shaft and the wire spring into the mounting plate.
