Definitions

  • the invention relates to a video tape cassette, in particular a video tape cassette, as is offered for rent in a recorded form in a video store.
  • the video store In the current practice of video stores, the video store has to buy the video tape cassettes to be rented from the manufacturer. The business risk is then borne solely by the video rental company. Although pre-recorded tapes are very expensive, the video store even has to buy popular titles several times in order to satisfy the interests of its customers.
  • the video library also needs a number of less popular films or video tape cassettes, with which it wants to demonstrate how wide its range is. These less popular tapes generally cost as much as the tapes with the popular video films. The investment is correspondingly considerable.
  • cassettes for strip-shaped tapes in particular data carriers, to provide tape length displays.
  • a one-part functional element is arranged in the cassette, which rests continuously on at least one winding or winding core and resiliently in such a way that it can be moved by the latter when the winding diameter changes due to rewinding of the tape. In this way, a rewound length of tape can be determined; however, it is not possible to automatically register how often the respective tape has already been moved back and forth.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a videotape cassette, the frequency of use of which can be easily controlled.
  • the solution according to the invention is characterized by a counter which is integrated in the video tape cassette and which registers the number of tape passes and a trigger which moves the counter once in the same direction with each tape pass by exactly one counting unit.
  • a video tape cassette is created by the invention, by means of which the investment in the video library is reduced without impairing the turnover of the film manufacturer. It is economically viable that the manufacturer gives the video cassette a usage fee for the video library.
  • the usage fee can be calculated according to the number of belt runs. Because this number can be read according to the invention at each wKassette readily can be for each cassette and • 'da ⁇ with for any movie not only the frequency of use as the basis for the payments of -Videothekars the manufacturer but also the popularity of the film er ⁇ average. Since the manufacturer is able to register each individual tape pass and then invoice the video library, the manufacturer can give the video library the number of video films that he considers necessary, which is not much in terms of materials cost, make available. The video store does not take any risks because it only has to pay for the number of runs that are paid for by its customers.
  • the invention achieves a further advantage in connection with protection against making pirated copies.
  • the video tape cassette has a trigger or driver which moves the counter once every tape revolution by exactly one counting unit.
  • This one-off pushing or advancing of the counter practically requires no energy. There is therefore no braking which interferes with the belt circulation from the counter or trigger.
  • the counter or its trigger can also be manufactured in a technically very simple manner, since the associated parts only have one during each strip pass, preferably during the advance be operated only once.
  • the counter according to the invention and its trigger require only extremely little additional effort and there is no fear of an effect on tape operation.
  • the construction of the counter with all the auxiliary parts is so to be made so simple and small that the entire additional device according to the invention can be accommodated within the cavity which is present anyway in the corners of each video cassette. Virtually every video cassette on the market can therefore be retrofitted with a counter according to the invention.
  • the accompanying drawing shows in principle a video tape cassette, generally designated 1, in which a video tape, generally designated 4, can be moved back and forth in the direction of arrow 5 over two guide rollers 6 and 7 on two sleeves 2 and 3. Between the guide rollers 6 and 7, the tape 4 is guided past the (not shown) magnetic head of the video recorder.
  • the diameter of the tape roll 8 located on the sleeve 2 is scanned with a spring-mounted tongue 9.
  • an associated counter 12 is advanced by one unit, for example by actuating a contact arm 11. The mutual arrangement is made in such a way that a reset of the counter 12 is also impossible when the belt 4 is rewinding.
  • the counting can also be effected in that when a predetermined diameter of the belt roll 8 is reached, light contact is triggered with the aid of a light barrier 13 indicated in the drawing.
  • a timer can be operated with the tape that the counter 12 after a certain predetermined time, for. B. after 10 minutes or after 3/4 of the tape running time, once by one unit switches.
  • a label 14 can also be provided in the belt itself, which gives a signal for advancing the counter 12 by a counting unit when it passes a sensor 15.
