Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a record player, and more particularly, to a record player in which the space required for opening and closing the dust cover can be made smaller.

In a conventional general record player, operations such as replacing a record are operated from the top, as shown in FIG. It is attached so that it can be opened and closed freely.

For this reason, it is not only impossible to mount an amplifier, tuner, tape recorder, etc. on the player;
A large space is required to open and close the dust cover 12,
For example, when a player is stored in a rack or the like, the height of the storage chamber must be increased, and furthermore, the rear end of the dust cover 12 protrudes rearward when the lid is opened, so the depth space of the storage chamber is also required. etc., the rack itself had to be enlarged, and there were drawbacks such as the need for twin racks for system components and the like.

Generally speaking, as a means to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, it is possible to form an opening in the upper front part of the casing and provide a sliding cover to cover this opening, but in this type of record replacement, Since the opening is required to be wide open for operations such as changing records, and it is desirable to be able to see the inside from both sides, the above-mentioned measures do not solve this problem. There are some difficulties in this.

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, to allow the opening and closing of the dust cover to be done in a relatively small space, to make the opening for operations such as changing records as wide as possible, and to allow visual inspection of the interior. The object of the present invention is to provide a record player that can easily perform the following tasks.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings from FIG. 2 onwards.

The basic structure of the present invention is: a casing 1 having an opening 2 on the front surface; a record player main body 3 disposed so that a portion 3a necessary for operations such as replacing a record is exposed from the opening 2; It consists of a dust cover 4 which is provided so as to be openable and closable so as to cover the exposed part 3a.

In the examples shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, a system rack is shown as the casing 1, and the approximately rear half 3b of the record player body 3 is inserted into the storage chamber 5 of the rack, and is necessary for operations such as replacing a record. A portion 3a (substantially the front half) is arranged so as to be exposed from the opening 2.

In the example shown in FIG. 6, the casing 1 is a record player cabinet itself, and the record player main body 3 is installed therein so that a portion 3a thereof is exposed through the opening 2.

As is clear from the drawing, the opening 2 is formed by providing an approximately 1L-shaped opening edge on the side plate of the casing 1, and therefore, both sides of the opening are also opened, and the entire opening is opened. It is designed to be wide and convenient for operation.

The dust cover 4 is made of a transparent material such as transparent plastic, and the left and right side walls 4b are approximately triangular so that the upper surface 4a is an inclined surface, and the rear and lower surfaces are open. A portion 4c protrudes, and the mounting portion 4c is pivotably mounted 6 in a detachable manner.

In the examples shown in FIGS. 2 to 5, the mounting portions 4c of the dust cover 4 are pivoted to both sides of the record player body 3, and in the example shown in FIG. 6, the dust cover 4 is pivoted to the inner surface of the casing 1 (cabinet). ing.

The dust cover 4 can be attached or detached by removing the pivot portion 6, and by removing it and inverting it, it can be used as a storage box for cassette tapes.

The dust cover 4 can be opened and closed about the pivot portion 6, and is housed in the casing 1 when the lid is opened.

Since the dust cover 4 only needs to cover the part 3a of the record player body 3 exposed from the opening 2 of the casing 1, it is approximately It only needs half the depth and width, so its height can be designed to be significantly smaller.

In the figure, 7 is a cassette tape recorder, 8 is an amplifier,
9 indicates a tuner, and 10 indicates a speaker.

Fig. 7 is for comparing a conventional record player and a record player according to the present invention. With the dust cover open, the present invention takes up about 60% of the space compared to the conventional record player. It means it's over.

According to the record player of the present invention, the space required to open and close the dust cover can be significantly reduced, and a tape recorder, amplifier, tuner, etc. can be placed on the record player, and the overall size can be reduced.

Additionally, conventionally, amplifiers, tuners, etc. do not require as much depth as shown on the left, but record players require considerable depth due to the diameter of their turntables, which makes it impossible to create an ideal layout when stacking them. However, in the case of the present invention, it is possible to create an ideal layout as shown in FIGS. 3 to 6, for example.

In particular, in the present invention, since the side plate of the casing has an approximately 1LJ-shaped opening edge to form the opening, both sides of the opening are also open, making the entire opening extremely wide. This is extremely convenient for operations such as panel replacement.

In addition, the dust cover is made of a transparent material, and the left and right side walls are approximately triangular in shape so that the top surface is inclined forward, and the rear and bottom surfaces are open. Since it is freely pivoted, the operability of opening and closing is good, and together with the shape of the opening, the interior can be viewed from both sides, and the appearance is also very good.

Furthermore, since the dust cover is removably pivoted, it can be removed and used as a storage box for cassette tapes.

Claims (1)

[Scope of Claim for Utility Model Registration] A record player body is arranged in a casing having an opening on the front so that a part necessary for operations such as changing a record is exposed from the opening, and the record player body is arranged so as to cover the opening. In a record player in which a dust cover is arranged so as to be openable and closable, approximately 1 inch is attached to the side plate of the casing to form the above-mentioned opening.
An L-shaped opening edge is formed, and the dust cover made of a transparent material has left and right side walls approximately triangular in shape so that the upper surface slopes forward, and the rear and lower surfaces are open. A structure characterized in that attachment portions formed at the rear ends of the left and right side walls are pivotably attached in a detachable manner.
