Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the immediate sound recording/reproducing operation even in an emergency by incorporating an acoustic disk into the main body of a tape deck and using a function which can record or reproduce directly to the acoustic disk in addition to a tape and a function which can drive automatically the tape in a non-recording mode just for a prescribed period after the recording is over. CONSTITUTION:When the recording or reproduction is performed to an acoustic disk, a selection switch 1 selects a sound recording medium 6 to be recorded. Then an REC operation switch 3 is pushed. In a reproduction mode the medium 6 is also selected by the switch 1, and a PLAY operation switch 2 is pushed. A corresponding head 7 is ready for operation with push of the switch 1 corresponding to the medium 6. When the recording is performed to a tape, a changeover switch discriminates whether the request is given from an acoustic disk 5. An ordinary sound recording state is usually secured, and a non-recording state is automatically set after the recording is over in case the automatic recording is carried out with the recording level set at ''0''.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an audio tape deck comprising an audio disk built into the main body of the audio tape deck.

A conventional audio tape deck of this type is shown in FIG. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing the structure of a conventional audio tape deck. As shown in the figure, the front panel P of the acoustic tape deck has two locations (for example, where two tape sets TAPEI and TAPE2 can be inserted).
The front panel P has various operation switches, such as a POWER switch (<wt, m switch), a PLAY switch (playback switch), and an RBC switch (recording switch).

PAUSE switch (temporary stop switch), 5TO
A P switch (stop switch) is provided.

The conventional audio tape deck mentioned above is used for recording.

The object of playback is always a tape, and the tape is placed on top of an audio tape deck before operation is performed. Then, when recording is finished, the tape is configured to stop immediately at that position.

For this reason, there are various operating means to advance the tape position, such as fast-forwarding the tape, playback, and manual operation of recording 2, but in all cases, after recording is finished, the tape position can be adjusted appropriately using each of the above-mentioned operating means. I'm trying to move on. Also, if you want to make a new recording using a tape that has already been recorded, and then erase the ingenious recording from that position and advance the tape position, you can set the recording level to zero and enter the recording state. be.

Conventional audio tape decks are constructed as described above, so in order to record, it is necessary to prepare the necessary tapes.For this reason, when you suddenly want to record, you have to prepare the tapes in time. However, there was a drawback that it was often impossible to record. Another drawback of the conventional audio tape deck having the above-mentioned configuration is that in order to create a short interval after the end of recording, that is, to create a non-recording state, it is necessary to perform an operation to create that interval after the end of recording. was there.

This invention was made in order to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional ones as described above, and includes a built-in acoustic disk in the main body of an acoustic tape deck, and a function that allows recording or playback directly to the acoustic disk in addition to the tape. In addition, the tape is configured to have a function that automatically runs the tape without recording for a predetermined period after recording is completed, so that recording or playback can be performed immediately even in an emergency when the tape is not prepared. It is an object of the present invention to provide an audio tape deck which is capable of recording data onto a tape and is capable of smoothly recording onto a tape.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Second
The figure is a plan view showing the structure of an acoustic tape deck which is an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a side view showing the structure of the acoustic tape deck built in the acoustic tape deck of FIG. 2.

In FIG. 2 above.

The front panel P of the acoustic tape deck is provided with one place into which, for example, one tape set, TAPE, can be inserted, and the front panel P has, for example, a POWER switch, a PLAY switch, etc., as shown in FIG. 1 above. switch, R
Various operation switches are provided, including an EC switch, a PAUSE switch, and a 5TOP switch. In addition, the front panel P of the audio tape deck is provided with a selection switch 1 for the built-in audio disc, a PLAY operation switch 2 necessary for recording to the audio disc, and playback from it, and an EC operation switch 3. In addition, AUTO has an automatic recording function when the recording level is set to zero.
A REC selection switch 4 and the like are provided. 3rd above
The acoustic disk 5 shown in the figure is built into the main body of an acoustic tape deck. A head 7 is provided for each medium 6.

Next, the operation of the above-described audio tape deck of the present invention will be explained.

(1) When recording or playing back on an audio disc.

First, the number of the recording medium 6 on the acoustic disc 5 shown in FIG. 3 to be recorded is selected using the selection switch 1 shown in FIG. 2, and the REC operation switch 3 is pressed. Also, for reproduction from the acoustic disc 5, the recording medium 6 is selected with the selection switch 1, and the PLAY operation input operation switch 2 is activated.

The recording medium 6 is capable of recording and playing back approximately 30 minutes per recording medium. In addition, recording or playback that is not allowed on the recording medium 6, or recording or playback that starts from the middle is not allowed.

Then, by pressing the selection switch 1 for the recording medium 6, the head 7 corresponding to the recording medium 6 is brought into a ready state.

(2) When recording to tape.

When recording on a tape, a switch (not shown) is used to distinguish between the audio disc 5 and other sources. Further, when recording on a tape, a changeover switch (not shown) is used to determine whether to perform normal recording or automatic recording with the recording level set to zero. Here, normal recording conditions are normally used. In the case of automatic recording at a recording level of zero, after the recording is finished, that is, after the PAUSE switch is pressed, the recording level is automatically set to zero and no recording is performed for about 3 to 5 seconds. However, when the 5TOP switch is pressed, the automatic recording function at the recording level or zero is canceled without being activated. If you press the AUTOREC selection switch 4, which has an automatic recording function at a recording level of 70, perform an operation other than recording, and then stop it with the PAUSE switch, there will be approximately 3 to 5 seconds of non-recording, during which time no recording will occur. Be careful, as the contents of the tape will be lost. 1 In this case, 5T
Use the OP switch. In Fig. 4, the explanation of the automatic recording function when the recording level is set to zero as described above is clearly shown in a flowchart.6In addition, in the above embodiment, when the automatic recording function is selected when the recording level is set to zero Although it is assumed that automatic recording is performed when the PAUSE switch is pressed to end the recording state even after the end of the recording state, automatic recording may not be performed when the recording end is ended in a state other than the recording state.

As described above, according to the acoustic tape deck of the present invention, the main body of the acoustic tape deck has a built-in sound disk, and has the function of being able to directly record or playback on the acoustic disk other than the tape, and automatically after recording is finished. Since the system is equipped with a function that allows the tape to run without recording for a predetermined period of time, it is possible to record or play immediately even in an emergency when the audio tape deck cannot supply the tape in time.
This has the excellent effect of making it possible to record onto tape very smoothly. 1
