Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a cassette storage case assembly that can be assembled into an audio rack or the like.

Since ready-made audio racks generally do not have a space for storing cassettes, a cassette storage case is retrofitted as an option in the record storage space.

However, since conventional devices have fixed specifications for mounting on audio racks, they have the disadvantage that they can only accommodate a small number of cassettes considering the space they occupy.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned points, and its purpose is to provide a cassette storage system that can be installed in either the left or right direction, allowing more cassettes to be stored in a limited space. An object of the present invention is to provide a case assembly.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows an audio rack 2 in which a cassette storage case assembly 1 according to the present invention is assembled, and the audio rack 2 has left and right partition plates 2a and a shelf plate 2b.

2b' to form four spaces.

A record player A is placed on one shelf board 2b, and a tape deck B1, main amplifier C1, and tuner D are placed on the other shelf board 2b'.

Record storage spaces 2d and 2d' are formed below the shelf boards 2b and 2b' with the bottom plate 2c, and the cassette storage case assembly 1 according to the present invention is assembled in one of the storage spaces 2d. There is.

The cassette storage case assembly 1 includes a box-shaped cassette storage case body 11 and a mounting member 12 that slides and guides the case body 11.

The case body 11 includes an upper plate 11a, a lower plate 11b, a left side plate 11c, a right side plate 11d, and a back plate 11e, and these plates define a cassette storage section 11f.

This storage portion 11f includes a side plate 11C, a lid, and a back plate 11e.
It is partitioned into two upper and lower stages by a partition plate 11g that spans between the two, and each stage is further subdivided into three by a partition piece 11h.

A plurality of cassette halves can be stored vertically in each of the subdivided storage sections 11f.

On the upper surface of the upper plate 11a and the lower surface of the lower plate 11b, a substantially T-shaped cross section is provided, which extends in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which the cassette halves of the cassette storage section 11f enter and exit, and is symmetrical in cross section when viewed in the direction of extension. Sliding rails 11a and 11b1 are provided, respectively.

The left side plate 11c has a front surface that faces when the storage case assembly 1 is assembled into the audio rack 2, for example.The left side plate 11c has a thick plate, and the left side plate 11c has a front surface that faces when the storage case assembly 1 is assembled into the audio rack 2. A mounting hole 11C1 for mounting the card 13 with the type of cassette half printed thereon together with the card case 14, and a display window 11C2 for viewing the display of the mounted card 13 are formed.

Since the right side plate 11d is not attached to the ends of the upper plate 11a and the lower plate 11b, but spans between them, the front plate 11i for blindfolding is also partially provided.

Furthermore, an engagement groove 11e1 extending to the partition plate 11g is formed in the back plate 11e along the extending direction of the slide rail 11aivllb1.

With the above-described configuration, the case body 11 has the partition plate 11
It is made vertically symmetrical about g.

When the mounting member 12 is removably attached to the bottom plate 2c of the audio rack 2 with wood screws 15, etc., the mounting member 12 has a base 12a that faces the bottom plate 2c, and cooperates with this base 12a to connect the sliding rail 11ai=11bl. It consists of a pair of retaining parts 12b that engage to hold one of the parts to slidably guide the case body 11 along the mounting member 12, and the mounting member 12 further has a retaining part 12b from one side edge thereof. An engagement protrusion 12d is provided by bending the upper end of the upright plate 12c, which stands upright at a right angle, along the base 12a.

The engagement protrusion 12d is slidably engaged with the engagement R11el of the back plate 11e of the case body 11.

The cassette storage case assembly 1 according to the present invention described above,
As shown in FIG. 1, in order to make the cassette entrances and exits of the case body 11 face each other and install them in one of the record storage spaces 2d, first, in FIG.
1 relative to the mounting member 12 in the direction of the arrow X to disengage the engagement portion 12b of the mounting member 12 from the sliding rail llb□, thereby separating the case body 11 and the mounting member 12.

Two sets of such devices are prepared, and as shown in FIG.
2a is fixed to the bottom plate 2c with dish-shaped wood screws 15, and the other mounting member 12 is similarly dish-shaped with its upright plate 12e in contact with the right side wall of the record storage space 2d. Bottom plate 2c with wood screws 15.
Attach to.

After that, the sliding rail 11 is attached to the engaging portion 12b of the mounting member 12.
After engaging the engagement protrusions 12d and the engagement grooves 11e and pushing in one case body 11, and turning the other case body 11 upside down, the engagement portion 12b of the mounting member 12 is The sliding rail 11a1 is connected to the engagement protrusion 12d.
case body 11 by engaging the engagement i11e□ respectively.
Assembly is completed by pushing in.

Note that when the case body 11 is turned upside down, the display window 11c
Since the display of the card 13 seen in the card 2 is also upside down, it is necessary to pull out the card case 14 from the mounting hole 11c1, turn it upside down so that the display of the card 13 is normal vertically, and then insert it again.

As is clear from the above, by turning the case body 11 upside down, the upper plate 11a is located at the lower side, and the lower plate 11b is located at the upper side.

In the preferred embodiment described above, the engagement protrusion 12d of the mounting member 12 is connected to the engagement groove i le of the back plate 11e of the case body 11.
Since it is engaged with □, the case body 11 is effectively prevented from falling forward when the case body 11 is pulled out.

Furthermore, since the display card 13 is removable, the card 13 can also be turned upside down when the case body 11 is installed upside down.

As described above, the present invention provides sliding rails on the upper and lower surfaces of the cassette storage case body that extend in a direction perpendicular to the cassette loading/unloading direction and are symmetrical when viewed in the extending direction. The case body is slidably guided to the mounting member by engaging with the retaining part of the mounting member, so by reversing the sliding rail that engages with the retaining part of the mounting member, the cassette entrance/exit can be opened. You will be able to reverse the direction.

Therefore, just by preparing one type of cassette storage case assembly, it is possible to attach the cassette storage cases facing each other, allowing you to store more cassettes in a limited space. It is economically advantageous.
