Abstract:
A loading loading plate having longitudinally rotatably tape tape buiding fingers thereon in the loading the load plate is pivotally mounted on the chassis of a tape recorder. The loading plate is linked to a cassette holder by a substantially ''''shaped lever shaped lever which permits the loading plate to pivot in response to pivotal cassette of the cassette holder. The cassette holder is pivoted to energize the tape recorder and the loading plate is pivoted therewith so as to place the tape guiding fingers behind the tape in the cassette where the tape can be withdrawn from the cassette.
Abstract:
An autochanger can continuously operate a video printer device without human intervention. The video printer device is loaded with a paper feed tray, which stores a plurality of recording media, and/or an ink ribbon cartridge in a manner to enable selectively changing them as desired. Provided are a magazine capable of storing a plurality of the paper feed trays and/or a plurality of the ink ribbon cartridges, and conveying means for the paper feed trays and/or the ink ribbon cartridges, said conveying means serving to convey the paper feed trays and the ink ribbon cartridges between the video printer device and the magazine. Accordingly, it is possible to change the paper feed trays and the ink ribbon cartridges for the video printer device by means of the conveying means as desired, so that an autochanger capable of continuously operating a video printer device over a long term can be realized.
Abstract:
A flexible magnetic disc cassette carries a normally closed automatic slide shutter which selectively covers head access holes provided on the cover of the disc cassette. Basically, such disc cassette is designed for use with a disc drive mechanically which carries an automatic shutter opening system. In order to be able to use such cassette with a disc drive having no such automatic shutter opening system, the shutter is arranged to move on said cover to an extended position where the shutter is latched in an extended open position. Apparatus is provided which automatically operates the shutter of the cassette upon insertion of the cassette into the disc drive.
Abstract:
A floppy disc is contained in a relatively hard encasement. In order to improve the function of a cleaning sheet installed in the floppy disc cassette encasement, a flexible pressure member is provided on an inside of the cassette which presses a portion of the cleaning sheet against the recording surface of the floppy disc.
Abstract:
In an autochanger which can continuously operate a video printing apparatus without having recourse to intervention by an operator, a paper feed tray for containing a plurality of recording media and/or an ink ribbon cartridge are loaded in the video printer device such as to selectively change them as the occasion demands, and a magazine which can contain a plurality of paper feed trays and/or ink ribbon cartridges and a conveyance means of paper feed tray and/or ink ribbon cartridge for conveying the paper feed tray and/or the ink ribbon cartridge between the video printer device and the magazine, are provided. Therefore, the paper feed tray and the ink ribbon cartridge of the video printer device can be changed by the conveyance means as the occasion demands, so as to realize an autochanger which can continuously operate a video printer device without having recourse to intervention by an operator.
