Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a drive mechanism for a tape recorder, particularly a small cassette tape recorder such as a car stereo.

When the tape wound around the cut is left unattended, vibrations may cause the reel hub to rotate, causing the tape to become loose.

If a loose tape is loaded into a tape recorder and immediately played back, the tape will not only wrap around the capstan, making playback impossible, but may also break the tape. Therefore, before playback, it is necessary to rotate the reel stand to remove slack in the tape.

Conventionally, this type of device rotates only one side of the reel stand, removes the slack in the tape, and electrically detects when the other reel stand begins to rotate, and when this rotation is detected, it enters the playback state. Therefore, it takes time to remove tape slack, and if the detection device that detects the rotation of the reel stand is also applied to the tape end detection device, a special circuit will be installed to detect the beginning of rotation of the reel stand. The need arose. This invention has been made in view of the above points, and its purpose is to provide a tape recorder 20 that can quickly remove tape slack by rotating the reel stands together in the tape winding direction, and that also has a simple structure. - To provide a drive mechanism for a motor.

is formed. A switch 45 for energizing the selection plunger 28 is mounted on the lower surface of the mounting plate 42, and a switch control lever 46 for controlling opening and closing of the switch 45 is pivotally supported. One end of the lever 46 faces the switch 45, and the other end is pivotally supported by one end of a pin support lever 47.

Slip plate 12 provided on the bottom surface of ream stands 12 and 13
The protrusions b and 13b are engaged. This slip plate 1
2b, 13b are shaft portions 13c (first
The same applies to the reel stand 12 side, so here we will use the second reel stand 1.
Only the third side will be explained with reference to FIG. 7), and is pressed toward the plate portion 13f by the spring 13d via the felt 13e. Therefore, when no load is applied to the slip plate 13b, the slip plate 13b also rotates together with the reel stand 13;
When a load is applied to 3b, it slips and stops rotating. Note that the protrusions on the slip plates 12b and 13b are attached to the mounting plate 42.
It faces into the holes 42c and 42d. Reference numeral 50 denotes a track changeover switch whose contacts are changed as the control arm 36 rotates to change over the regeneration coil of the head 25. Reference numeral 51 is a track changeover switch whose contacts are changed by the lever 29 for advancing the headstand when the headstand 24 moves forward. This is a switch that causes constant speed rotation, and vice versa when switched to high speed rotation.

The structure has been described above, and the operation will now be described.

Now: 1) If the tank is not loaded,
Since the head stand 24 is retracted, the selection arm 41 is also retracted, and the control portions 10c, 11c of the control levers 10, 11 are not displaced by the head 41a.

Therefore, the connecting gear 10a is the gear 3 of the first flywheel 3.
a and the gear 12a of the first reel stand 12, and the connecting gear 11a connects the gear 4a of the second flywheel 4 and the second
It is connected to the gear 13a of the reel stand 13. When a force set (not shown) is loaded in this state, the motor 2 is energized by a power switch (not shown).

At this point, since the head stand 24 is retracted, the motor 2 is rotated at high speed in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 2 at the contact point of the switch 51. Therefore, the first and second reel stands 12, 13
are both rotated in the tape winding direction, and if there is slack in the tape, this slack is removed. Also, the reel stand 12,1
3 is rotated, the slip plates 12b and 13b are also rotated in the same direction, so that the detection lever 49 moves upward as shown in FIG. When the guide rod 48a of the detection arm 48 moves within the guide groove 42a as the detection lever 49 moves, the detection arm 48 is rotated about the guide pin 48b, so that the engagement piece 48c is rotated in the right direction. Displaced to.
Since the engaging pin 47a of the support lever 47 is engaged with the displaced engaging piece 48c, the cam groove 4 of the cam plate 44
The lower end of the engagement pin 47a facing the cam groove 4b
It is pressed against the inner circumferential wall of 4b. Therefore, even if the cam plate 44 is rotated by the pulley 8, the engagement pin 47a remains on the cam base 4.
The engaging portion 44dVC of 4c does not come into contact with the engaging pin 47a, and the engaging pin 47a maintains a state along the inner circumferential wall. ' When the tape slack is removed, the rotation of the reel shaft portions 12c, 13c of the reel stands 12, 13 is stopped by the friction between the reel stands 12, 13, so the slip plates 12b,
The turning force of 13b becomes zero.

Note that since the reel stands 12 and 13 are in a slip state with the reel shaft portions 12c and 13c, they continue to rotate. On the other hand, cam plate 4
4 is constantly rotated by the pulley 8, so the engagement pin 4
7a is moved toward the center by the inner circumferential wall of the cam groove 44b and maintained in that state. Since the engaging portion 44d of the cam base 44e0 is located on the trajectory of the moved engaging pin 47a, the engaging pin 47a is pushed by the engaging portion 44d. Therefore, the switch control lever 46 is rotated and the switch 45 is closed. Since this switch 45 is connected to the selection plunger 28, the plunger 28 is energized. When the plunger 28 is energized and the suction rod is pulled, since the pin 28a and the engaging pawl 30a of the control plate 30 are engaged, the control plate 30 is pulled and the lever 29 for advancing the headrest is moved clockwise. is rotated.

Since the guide pin 24b of the head stand 24 is engaged with the forked portion 29b of this lever 29, the head stand 24 moves forward, and the roller 24c provided at the tip engages with the lock piece 22b of the lock plate 22. be done. Therefore, even after the selection plunger 28 is de-energized and the suction rod is restored,
Head stand 24 is fixed in the forward position. Note that when the head platform advancement lever 29 is rotated, the control plate 30 is rotated toward the upright piece 29c by the coiled spring 31, so the engaging pawl 30a leaves the trajectory of the pin 28a of the plunger 28. . Therefore, when the head stand 24 is moving forward, even if the plunger 28 is energized again, the pin 28a and the engaging pawl 30a are not engaged with each other. On the other hand, when the head stand 24 moves forward, the rollers 2 of the pinch roller units 26 and 27
6e, 27e are disengaged from the notches 24f, 24g of the head stand 24, and the coiled spring 26d is released from the middle of their forward movement.
, 27d are pushed by the upright pieces 24d, 24e, thereby causing the respective pinch roller units 26, 27 to
is rotated by the spring force toward the capstans 3a and 4a.

Assuming that the slide lever 40 is moving to the right as shown in FIGS. 5 and 10, the roller 26c of the pinch roller unit 26 is moved to the stepped portion 40c of the slide lever 40, and the roller 41b of the selection arm 41 is moved to the stepped portion 40e. Since they abut on each other, rotation of the pinch roller unit 26 is stopped midway, and the pinch roller 26b does not abut on the capstan 3a.

Further, the selection arm 41 is rotated counterclockwise to
a contacts the control portion 10c of the control lever 10 and moves it, so that the connection gear 10a and the gear 3 of the first flywheel 3
Remove the mesh with b. On the other hand, since the roller 27c on the side of the pinch roller unit 27 is located away from the stepped portion 40d of the slide lever 40, rotation of the pinch roller unit 27 is not prevented, and therefore the pinch roller 27b is pressed against the capstan 4a. Ru.

Further, since the head 41a of the selection arm 41 and the control part 11c of the control lever 11 do not come into contact with each other, the gear 4b of the second flywheel 4 and the second reel stand 13 are connected to each other by the connecting gear 11a.
continues to be connected to gear 13a. Further, since the head stand advancement lever 29 switches the switch 51, the motor 2 rotates at a constant speed. As a result, the head 25 comes into contact with the tape, the second reel stand 13 starts to rotate in the direction of winding the tape, and the tape is pinched between the capstan 4a and the pinch roller 27b, so that reproduction begins.

Next, a case will be described in which the playback progresses and the tape reaches its end.

If the tape is now wound on the second reel stand 13 side,
The slip plate 13b of the second reel stand 13 applies a clockwise rotational force to the detection lever 49, and the slip plate 12b of the first reel stand 12 applies a clockwise rotational force as well.

Therefore, the detection arm 48 is rotated clockwise, and the engagement pin 47a of the pin support lever 47 is engaged with the cam groove 44b of the cam plate 44.
It maintains a state along the inner circumferential wall of the cam base 44c and is not engaged with the engaging portion 44d of the cam base 44c. Now, the running of the tape has stopped and the reel shafts 1 of the first and second reel stands 12 and 13
2c, 13c stop, the reel shaft portions 12c, 13 of the reel stands 12, 13 are removed after removing the tape slack described above.
The switch 45 is closed and the selection plunger 28 is energized in the same way as when the switch c is stopped.

When the plunger 28 is energized and the suction rod is pulled, the rotating lever 33 is rotated clockwise. Since the head stand 24 is moving forward, the sewing U control plate 30 is not connected to the engaging claw 30a.
is retracted from the locus of the pin 28a, so the head platform advancement lever 29 is not rotated.
Since the control arm 36 with which the engagement rod 36d is engaged is rotated counterclockwise, the rotation arm 34 is rotated clockwise via the spring wire 37. The swing lever 35, in which the pin 34a of the swing arm 34 is inserted into the elongated hole 35a, is rotated clockwise, and the engagement claw 35d is engaged with the engagement rod 36d of the swing leg arm 36. . Therefore, when the rotating lever 33 is rotated clockwise and the swinging lever 35 is pulled, the control arm 36 is rotated clockwise. As a result, the slide lever 40 moves to the left as shown in FIG.
7d rides on the stepped portion 40d, and the roller 41c of the selection arm 41 rides on the stepped portion 40f. Therefore, the pinch roller 27b is separated from the capstan 4a, and the control part 11c of the control lever 11 is pushed by the head 41a as the selection arm 41 is rotated clockwise, and the connecting gear 11a is moved to the second position. The flywheel 4 is separated from the gear 4b, and the rotational force to the second reel stand 13 is lost. On the other hand, since the roller 26d of the pinch roller unit 26 is removed from the stepped portion 40c, the pinch roller 26b is pressed against the capstan 3a, and since the head 41a of the selection arm 41 is separated from the control portion 10c of the control lever 10, the connecting gear 10a connects the gear 3b of the first flywheel → gear 3 and the gear 12a of the first reel stand 12. As a result, the tape starts running in the opposite direction, and the rotation of the control arm 36 changes the contacts of the switch 50 to change the channel of the head 25, so that the track in the opposite direction is reproduced. By the way, in the above state, the FbI leg arm 36 is rotated clockwise and the rotation arm 34 is rotated counterclockwise by the spring wire 37, so the swing lever 35 is rotated counterclockwise. When rotated, the engaging claw 35c engages the engaging rod 36 of the control arm 36.
It is held in a state where it can be engaged with c. Therefore, when the playback is finished again and the stop of tape running is detected by the same operation as the one itself and the selection plunger 28 is energized, the swing lever 35 rotates the control arm 36 counterclockwise. Since the slide lever 40 is pulled to the right, the device enters the above-mentioned initial state and starts playing in the original direction. If you want to change the playback channel during playback, close the switch using the replay button (not shown), energize the selection plunger 28, and perform the same operation as described above after detecting the end of the tape. The operation allows playback in the reverse direction.

Next, a case will be described in which rewinding is performed during playback shown in FIG. 10, that is, during playback when the tape is being wound rightward.

When you press the rewind button (not shown) and close the switch,
The release plunger 15 is energized and its suction rod is pulled.

As a result, the operating lever 17 is pulled against the spring force of the spring 19 and the λt1 release lever 21 is rotated counterclockwise, so that its tip touches the upright piece 22a of the lock plate 22 against the spring force of the spring 23. Rotate counterclockwise. Therefore, the lock piece 22b and the roller 24c of the head stand 24 are unlocked, and the head stand is moved backward by the spring force of the spring 32 via the lever 29 for advancing the head stand. Also, since the release lever 21 is rotated counterclockwise, the engagement piece 11d of the control lever 11
is engaged with the release lever 21 and rotated, and the connecting gear 11a is separated from the gear 4b of the second flywheel 4, and the second V-ru base 13 becomes free. On the other hand, the control section 10e of the control lever 10 is no longer restricted by the head 41a of the selection arm 41, which retreats as the head stand 24 retreats, so it returns to its original position by the spring force of the spring 11e and connects the connecting gear 10a. connects the gear 3b of the first flywheel 3 and the gear 12a of the first reel stand 12. In addition, the head stand 24
moves backward, the head platform forwarding lever 29 switches the switch 51, and the motor 2 rotates at high speed. Therefore, the first reel stand 12 rotates at high speed and winds up the tape. When the rewinding of the tape is completed and the end of the tape is reached, the switch 45 is closed by an operation similar to the operation after detecting the end of the tape described above, and the selection plunger 28 is energized, and the release plunger 15 is energized. is cut off, and the head stand 24 is turned off again.
advances and playback is performed, but at this time, playback is performed in the direction that was being played before rewinding.

This is when the rotating arm 3 is moved backwards.
4, the upright pieces 24d, 24f are kept in a horizontal state, the swing lever 35 is kept in a horizontal state, and the engaging claws 35c, 35d are not engaged with any of the engaging rods 36c, 36d of the swing leg arm 36. This is because there is.

Further, when returning to playback during rewinding, the power supply to the release plunger 15 is cut off by operating a replay button (not shown) or the like.

As a result, the operating lever 17 is returned by the spring 19, and the release lever 21 is also returned, so that the swing leg lever 11
returns to its original position. Therefore, the connecting gear 11a is the gear 4b of the second flywheel 4 and the gear 13a of the second reel stand 13.
Since the second reel stand 13 rotates in the opposite direction to the first reel stand 12, if there is slack in the tape,
Remove slack. After the slack is removed, the head stand 24 is moved by the same operation as when loading the tape described above.
advances, and playback is performed in the playback direction before rewinding. Next, a case will be described in which fast forwarding is performed during playback, that is, during playback when the tape is being wound in the right direction.

When you press the fast forward button (not shown) and close the switch,
After the release plunger 14 is energized and all of the tape is wound up in the same manner as in the case of rewinding during recycling, the first and second reel stands 12 and 13 start winding the tape, respectively. , and playback starts in the fast forward direction.

However, since the tape is all wound in the fast forward direction, actual playback is not performed and the tape is stopped. Then, the tape end detection operation is performed, the switch 45 is closed, and the selection plunger 28 is energized, so that the playback proceeds as described above and reaches the end of the tape 7°, and playback is performed in the opposite direction. Reproduction in the reverse direction is started by this action. Next, to explain the ejecting of the force setting, when the ejector lever (not shown) is operated, the lock plate 22 is first moved by the ejector lever (not shown).
Rotate counterclockwise. After releasing the lock with the head stand 24, the force set is released and the power is cut off, ending the entire operation. In the above embodiment, the power switch is turned on when the force set is loaded, but the power switch may be provided separately and turned on manually.

In addition, in order to remove tape slack, the first and second reel stands 1
2 and 13 in the winding direction, detecting that the tape slack has been removed and the rotation of the reel shaft portions 12c and 13c has stopped, the selection plunger 28 is energized to perform playback. This may be done by energizing the selection plunger 28 for a certain period of time after loading the tape, or by detecting the tension of the tape.

Further, in the above embodiment, the gears 3b, 4 of the first and second flywheels 3, 4 are connected by the connecting gears 10a, 11a from the beginning.
b and the gears 12a, 1''3a of the first and second reel stands are shown connected, but it is also possible to connect them after the force set is loaded.

In the above embodiment, when the reel stands 12 and 13 are rotated in the tape winding direction and the slack of the tape is removed,
That is, the reel shaft parts 12c, 13c rotated by the reel stands 12, 13 in the tensioned state of the tape are made of a friction material such as felt provided between the reel stands 12, 13 and the reel shaft parts 12c, 13c. In this case, even if all the tape was wound on one reel stand side, the wound tape was not wound on the other reel stand side (this Unless a friction material is provided (the state with the highest torque difference), it is not possible to detect tape stop and proceed to the next operation.

However, if a large friction is applied between the two, an unreasonable force will be applied to the tape at the end of the tape, and there is a possibility that the tape will be cut. Therefore, a normal amount of friction is applied between the reel stand and the reel shaft, and when each reel stand tries to rotate from the winding rotation direction to the supply rotation direction only when removing tape slack, the reel axis of that reel stand It is conceivable that a stopper engages with the portion and prevents it from rotating. A specific example of this will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 13 to 15.

Numerals 52 and 53 are approximately L-shaped ratchet plates whose approximately centers 52a and 53a are pivoted to the chassis 1, one of which is located on the lower surface of the plate portions 12f and 13f of the reel stands 12 and 13, and on the upper surface thereof. Ratchets 52 correspond to the engagement protrusions 12g and 13g formed on the lower surfaces of the plate parts 12f and 13f.
b, 53b are formed.

Note that the ratchets 52b and 53b engage the engaging protrusions 12g and 12g when the reel stands 12 and 13 rotate in the tape winding direction.
13g but is not engaged, and the reel stand 12,1
3 rotates in the tape supply direction, the engagement protrusion 12g
, 13g are engaged with the ratchets 52b, 53b, and are shaped to prevent the plate portions 12f, 13f of the reel stands 12, 13 from rotating. Also, the ratchet plates 52, 53
Engagement pins 52c and 53c are formed at the other end, and a spring 54 is tensioned to apply a force that causes the engagement pins 52c and 53c to move outward from each other. The rotational force of the ratchet plates 52 and 53 applied by the spring 54 is applied to the stoppers 10e and 10e formed on the control levers 10 and 11, respectively.
11e. Further, the engaging pins 52c and 53c enter the head stand 24 corresponding to the above-mentioned engaging pins 52c and 53C, and the head stand 24 is in the latter half of its forward movement. Guide grooves 24h, 241 are formed for rotating the ratchet plates 52, 53 and retracting the ratchets 52b, 53b from the loci of the engaging protrusions 12g, 13g. Next, to explain the operation, in FIG. 13, when the head stand 24 is retracted and the reel stands 12 and 13 are rotated in the tape winding direction, the ratchet 52b
, 53b are located on the rotation locus of the engaging protrusions 12g, 138, so that the ratchets 52b, 53b and the engaging protrusions 12
g, 13g, but due to their shape, the ratchet plates 52, 53 are rotated against the spring force of the spring 54.
The ratchets 52b and 53b move from the locus of the engaging protrusions 12g and 13g.

Therefore, the plate portions 12f, 13f of the reel stands 12, 13 continue to rotate (see the side of the reel stand 13 in FIG. 3). Next, the slack in the tape is removed, and if, for example, the amount of winding on the reel stand 13 side is small, the tape moves to the reel stand 13 side, so the reel stand 12 side becomes the supply side.

Therefore, since the engaging protrusion 12g comes into contact with the ratchet 52b and is engaged with the ratchet 52b due to its shape, a force is applied to rotate the ratchet plate 52 clockwise. As a result, the rotation of the plate portion 12f of the reel stand 12 is prevented (see 171-reel stand 12 side in FIG. 13). As a result, the above-mentioned tape end detection device is activated and a transition is made to the playback state. When the reproducing state is reached, the head stand 24 moves forward as shown in FIG. Since the tips of 241 form an arc that matches the locus of rotation of the latchet plates 52 and 53, the latchet plates 52 and 53 are rotated against the spring force of the spring 54 in the latter half of the forward movement of the head stand 24, respectively. Therefore, Ratchet 52
b and 53b are retracted from the locus of the engaging protrusions 12g and 13g, so that the engagement between the two is eliminated. Of course, during this regeneration, one of the control levers 10 and 11 (the slender lever 1 in the figure)
1 side) is rotated by the aforementioned selection arm 41, but its rotation is not interfered with by the ratchet plate 53. Next, in order to perform fast forwarding or rewinding in FIG. 13, it is necessary to prevent engagement between one of the ratchets and the engaging protrusion.

For example, when the tape is wound in the right direction, when the control lever 11 is rotated by the selection arm 41, the stopper piece 11e moves back as shown in FIG. 15, and comes into contact with the ratchet plate 53. is released, the ratchet plate 53
is rotated by the spring force of the spring 54, so that the ratchet 53b is retracted from the trajectory of the engagement protrusion 13g. As a result, the rotation of the reel stand 13 in the supply direction is not inhibited and the tape is wound up. Further, since the winding in the opposite direction is similar, a description thereof will be omitted. As described above, the first and second reel stands are connected to the driving means via the connecting means, and both reel stands are rotated in the winding direction of the tape, and when the tape is slack, After the tape slack is removed, the reel shaft rotates and friction is applied between the reel stand and the reel shaft to prevent the tape from moving. This has the effect of ensuring reliable stopping and accurate operation.
