Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a cassette tape recorder.

Configuration of conventional example and its problems Recently, there have been remarkable advances in miniaturization and thinning of tape recorders, but on the other hand, it can be said that they have necessarily progressed in view of the original usability in terms of product operation. Instead, it is more difficult to use because it is smaller and thinner. Especially when it comes to taking out the cassette tape, the size of the product is so small that it is very difficult to grab and take out the cassette tape in the product.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to enable easy and smooth removal of a cassette tape.

Configuration of the invention, a main body having a drive mechanism of the tape recorder,
A cassette lid that covers the cassette tape, a cassette holder that holds the cassette tape that is rotatable with respect to each of the main body portion and the cassette lid, one end that is slidable with respect to the main body portion, and the other end that It comprises a link arm that is rotatable with respect to the cassette holder and that has a convex portion that pushes up the cassette lid when opening the cassette lid, and a spring is provided at the link arm sliding portion with respect to the main body portion to open and close the cassette lid. By constructing a toggle mechanism, and pushing the rear part toward the main body part after opening the cassette lid, the cassette tape slides out on the upper surface of the main body part, and the cassette tape can be taken out easily and smoothly.

Description of Embodiments One embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing the configuration of the present embodiment. 1 is a main body having a drive mechanism, 2 is a drive mechanism substrate, 3 is a cassette lid, and a cassette holder 6 is provided with screws 4 and a shaft 5. It is configured to be rotatable with respect to. Further, the cassette holder 6 is configured to be rotatable on a fulcrum holding portion 2a of the drive mechanism substrate 2 by a shaft 7. The link arm 8 has a shaft 9 in the long hole 2b of the drive mechanism substrate 2.
Is configured to be slidable by means of a shaft 10 and rotatable with respect to the cassette holder 6 by means of a shaft 10. Both ends of the spring 11 are attached to the shaft 9 and the convex portion 2c of the drive mechanism substrate 2, respectively.

Next, the operation will be described. 2 to 4 are views seen from the side of the product, FIG. 2 is a state in which the cassette tape is mounted, and the cassette tape 12 is attached to the cassette lid 3 by the spring 11.
Is held on the main body 1 side. When the cassette lid 3 is opened in the direction of arrow A, the state as shown in FIG. 3 is obtained, and when the rear portion of the cassette lid 3 is pushed in the direction of arrow B, the cassette tape 12 causes the upper surface of the drive mechanism substrate 2 to move as shown in FIG. Also, the cassette holder 6 has a protrusion 8a on the link arm 8
Is pressed against the inner surface of the cassette lid 3 and is pushed downward to create a space between the cassette tape 12 and the cassette lid 3 so that the fingertip can be inserted and the cassette tape can be attached easily and smoothly.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, the cassette tape is projected by pushing the rear portion toward the main body after opening the cassette lid, which enables easy and smooth take-out in a very frequent operation of taking in and out the cassette tape, The effect on the operation side is great.
