Definitions

  • VIDEO CASSETTES This invention relates to tape cassettes such as video, audio and computer tape cassettes, as well as cassettes for typewriter and printer ribbons. However for illustrative purposes only, particular reference will be made hereinafter to video cassettes.
  • Cassettes for tape storage for video tape recorders typically contain two spools. The ends of a length of tape are connected to the hubs of the spools, and during use the tape unreels from one spool and reels onto the other. In order that playing of the tapes and rewinding after use may proceed unhindered, the spools must rotate freely within the cassette housing while a cassette is in use. However, it is necessary that a cassette be fitted with a brake system to lock the spools when a cassette is not in use, so that loose tape cannot unreel from the spools during handling and transport of the cassette.
  • a section of the tape passing between the spools is routed along one edge of the cassette from where it can be drawn into contact with the recording and playback heads.
  • a hinged closure flap covers this section of tape when the cassette is not in use, and this flap is automatically swung away from the tape when the cassette is inserted in the tape player.
  • the casings of the presently available video cassettes are formed as complex shell mouldings in mating halves which must be screwed together.
  • the casing halves must be formed precisely to maintain operative alignment of the parts as well as correct alignment of tape guides for minimising frictional tape drag in use.
  • Most cassettes also have a separate reel tension spring, a separate cover flap locking mechanism and complex multi component reel braking devices to provide optimum performance over a long period of recording, playback and re-recording.
  • the casing halves include mating column parts which interlock to ensure correct alignment of the column parts whereby each may support a sleeve bearing for use as a tape guide.
  • a disadvantage of such cassettes is that they must be manufactured, to high standards and are thus expensive to manufacture and assemble.
  • this invention in one aspect resides broadly in a one piece casing for a tape cassette including:- an open housing which provides first and second chamber portions between which tape may be transferred and a leading wall assembly which is provided with pathways through which tape may pass between said chamber portions; a closure part for enclosing said open housing, and said closure part being connected to said open housing by an integrally formed hinge.
  • said pathways are provided with tape guides across which said tape passes from one said chamber portion to the other.
  • said closure part be in the form of a substantially planar wall and that said leading wall extends continuously between said closure wall and the opposite wall of said housing.
  • the leading wall may be in the form of a wall which extends in one piece between said pathways or it may be constituted by a plurality of spaced columns or walls.
  • the said opposite wall may constitute the base wall which may be substantially rectangular and may support a back wall along one edge thereof opposite said leading wall and side walls along the remaining edges thereof.
  • the side walls, the base wall, the back wall and said leading wall are formed integrally with one another and suitably of a plastics material such as polyethylene.
  • this invention resides in a cassette casing having:- a leading side wall through which tape may pass between respective housing portions within said casing; opposed enclosure walls between which said leading side wall extends, one said opposed enclosure wail being formed integrally with the other said opposed wall and being hingably connected thereto whereby one said opposed wall may be moved from an open position at which said housing portions are open to permit stored tape to be inserted therein and a closed position enclosing said housing portions.
  • said casing may include a base wall assembly, a side wall assembly including said leading side wall assembly and opposed side walls.
  • the base wall assembly which may constitute one said opposed wall may be formed integrally with said opposed side wall assembly or separate therefrom as desired.
  • the side wall assembly may include integral tape guides and may be formed from a rigid plastics material such as polystyrene.
  • the base wall assembly may be formed from a plastics material such as polyethylene , although of course other materials such as fibreboard may be used if desired.
  • the base wall, opposed walls and top wall assemblies may be formed integrally or of a different material to the remainder of said casing.
  • a composite housing may be formed which may include for example moulded leading and side walls and a cardboard base wail, rear wall and top wall.
  • a closure flap may be formed integrally with the top wall and connected to the top wall by an integrally-formed or live hinge or the like whereby it may pivot between closed and open positions as in conventional video cassettes.
  • the top wall may be adhered to the top face of said side walls so that the cassette cannot be taken apart without destroying the side trails.
  • the top wall is formed with closure means which may engage with complementary closure means formed on the side walls whereby the too wall may be attached to the side walls.
  • the top wall may be formed from a transparent plastics material such that the interior of the housing may be inspected visually.
  • the top wall may be provided with windows which may be covered with transparent material.
  • the tape cassette is adapted as a video tape cassette and said leading wall assembly is recessed intermediate said tape guides for receiving a video player's tape carrier members when the latter are disposed rearwardly of video tape extending across said leading wall assembly and the base wall is apertured to permit the drive spindles of a conventional video player to extend upwardly into said chamber portions and to provide recesses for locating pins for the optical sensor motor control and the brake release mechanism associated with a conventional video player.
  • Optical fibres may be embedded into or secured to the housing to enable circuitous light paths to be formed to direct light to the optical sensors.
  • optical fibres may be moulded into the housing or be adhered thereto or optical fibres may be formed integrally with a plastics leaf spring secured to the top wall of the cassette and utilized to force the tape reels downwardly to their stowed positions.
  • this invention resides in braking apparatus for the tape storage reels of a tape cassette of the type having a leading wall closure flap which is automatically opened upon insertion into a video cassette recorder (VCR), said braking apparatus having a braking member adapted to engage a reel and being movable between an operative position at which said braking member applies a braking action to said reel and a non-operative position at which said braking member is released from said reel and said braking member being operatively associated with said closure flap whereby movement of said closure flap between its closed and open positions moves said braking member between said operative and said non-operative positions.
  • VCR video cassette recorder
  • said braking apparatus includes braking members adapted to brake the respective reels.
  • the braking members may be supported on any desired wall and may engage frictionally with the reels, but preferably they engage with ratchet teeth formed in the outer faces of the tape spools.
  • said braking members are formed integral with the top wall of said closure flap and are disposed between the closure flap pivots and the front wall of said flap such that pivoting of the closure flap about said closure flap pivots moves said braking members between said operative and non-operative positions, although the braking members could be arranged remote from the closure flap and be interconnected thereto by linkages.
  • this invention resides broadly in a method of forming a tape cassette including providing a mould having a cavity for an open cassette body and a cavity for a closure wall for enclosing said cassette body said cavities being interconnected by a reduced thickness line; injecting plastics material Into said mould; removing the one piece moulded article from said mould, and pivoting said closure wall about said reduced thickness line to a closed position over said open cassette body.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 are views of an alternate form of video cassette.
  • the video cassette 10 has a housing assembly 11 consisting of a base wall 12, side walls 13, a rear wall 14 and a leading wall 15.
  • the leading wall 15 contains recesses 16 to accommodate tape transport posts and guides of a video cassette recorder
