したりする虞れがない。 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement of a handle attachment device for a tape recorder, and is particularly significant as a handle attachment device for a stereo-type large cassette tape recorder with a radio. In recent years, tape recorders have become more multi-functional, and stereotypical cassette tape recorders with radios are becoming popular. In addition, in order to give this stereo-type radio-equipped cassette tape recorder a stereoscopic appearance, design considerations have been made, such as providing a wide dial display area that spans the entire width of the front of the cabinet, as shown in Figure 1. However, if the dial display section is provided over the entire front width of the cabinet, the mechanical strength of the cabinet in the vertical direction is reduced by the dial display section. Furthermore, the multi-functionality increases the overall weight, and if the handle is attached directly to the top of the cabinet, there is a risk that the dial display section will be damaged during transportation. Therefore, in the past, as shown in FIG.
is rotatably attached to both side walls of cabinet 3,
Although we tried not to apply force to the dial display section 4, the stereo type radio-equipped cassette tape recorder has a wide width, so the grip section 5 of the handle 1
The length was also longer than necessary, leading to an increase in weight and cost, and was also undesirable from a design point of view. The present invention eliminates the drawbacks of the conventional example.
One embodiment will be explained according to the drawings. Figure 1 shows a stereo type cassette tape recorder with radio (hereinafter simply referred to as a tape recorder).
7 is a perspective view of the cabinet 6 seen from the front side, and 7 is a dial display section provided near the upper end of the front surface of the cabinet 6 . Reference numerals 8, 8 are left and right speaker mounting parts, and 9 is a cassette mounting part. 1
Reference numerals 0 and 10 indicate cutouts serving as through holes cut into the upper surface of the cabinet 6 , through which the arm portions 12 and 12 of the handle 11 are inserted. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the cabinet 6 viewed from the rear. 13 is a chassis installed in the cabinet 6 , and there are two screws 1 each from the top and bottom.
4, 14, 14, 14 are fixed to the cabinet 6 . Although not shown, the chassis 13 is formed so that heavy objects such as a tape recorder mechanism and batteries can be mounted thereon. Also, chassis 1
As shown in FIG. 4, recesses 15, 15 for attaching the handle 11 are formed in the upper part of the handle 11 at approximately the same pitch as the arm parts 12, 12 of the handle 11, so that the arm parts 12, 12 can be freely rotated. A relatively high-strength spacer 1 that supports the shaft 16
7 and 17 are inserted into the recesses 15 and 15, and the screws 1
It is screwed on at 8 and 18. Note that 19 is a grip portion of the handle 11 . Since the present invention is configured as described above, the handle 11 is directly attached to the chassis 13 , so that the chassis 1 on which a heavy object is attached as described above can be used.
3 is not applied to the cabinet 6 , and even if the handle 11 is attached to the upper surface of the cabinet 6 , there is no risk of the cabinet 6 being damaged. In addition, in this embodiment, the chassis 13 and the arm portion 12 of the handle 11 ,
12 with relatively high strength spacers 17, 17
, there is no risk of damage to the mounting portion even if the handle 11 is rotated repeatedly. As described above, the handle attachment device for a tape recorder of the present invention includes: a chassis having a handle attachment portion on the upper portion for rotatably attaching the arm portion of the handle and a tape drive mechanism, etc.; and a handle attachment portion of the chassis. The cabinet is made up of a cabinet in which a handle insertion hole is formed on the upper surface of the cabinet, and the handle is supported by the handle attachment part of the chassis so as to be rotatable through the handle insertion hole of the cabinet. In other words, since the handle is not supported directly on the top surface of the cabinet as in the past, when carrying a tape recorder using such a handle, for example, the weight of the tape drive mechanism etc. is not directly applied to the top surface of the cabinet, which has relatively low mechanical strength. Therefore, there is no risk that the cabinet will be deformed or damaged during such transportation.
