Describe the inner structure of relevant shell 10 in detail below with reference to Fig. 4 to Fig. 6.Fig. 4 and content shown in Figure 5 are as described above, Fig. 6 has represented further to remove from the inside surface of the lower half shell B of Fig. 5 the appearance of the lower half shell B inside surface behind the above-mentioned remaining various parts, include liner 49 in the above-mentioned remaining various parts of representing among Fig. 5, have a pair of wheel hub 32a of tape 34,32b, have the leaf spring 50 of tape pad 36.
Shown in double dot dash line among Fig. 4, liner 52 is configured in the inside surface of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A, liner 52 usefulness super-high density polyethylene films or density polyethylene film with high or low density polyethylene films or poly tetrafluoroethylene or mylar or organosilicon membrane or organosilicon paper are made, it and a pair of wheel hub 32a shown in Fig. 1, position in two edges of the length direction of the tape 34 of reeling selectively on the periphery of 32b is in the lengthwise edge sliding contact of inside surface one side of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A, in the friction force that between reduction and this lengthwise edge, produces, also prevented the generation of static.
Liner 52 makes the central a pair of wheel bore 12 of the sidewall 14a that avoids upper half shell A, 12, rear wall closely is close to the capstan patchhole 26 of the cooperation cave 24 of the middle position at position, middle position that antetheca closely is close to the position, the tape cassete pilot hole 28a of position closely is close at the two ends that antetheca closely is close to the position, view window 30a between 28b, a pair of wheel bore 12,12 and the shape that on four jiaos of sidewall 14a inside surface, forms around the attachment screw pillar 56 of 2 cylindrical section shapes of attachment screw 54.
The two ends, the left and right sides of the trailing edge of liner 52 are formed with liner pilot hole 58a, 58b; When upper half shell A and lower half shell B were together with each other as shown in Figures 1 to 3, near the upper end of the liner reference column described later that forms the two ends, the left and right sides that the rear wall of the inside surface of the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B closely is close to just was inserted in liner pilot hole 58a, among the 58b.
The liner pilot hole 58a of one side is in the elongated slightly circle of left and right sides Xiang Cheng, and the liner pilot hole 58b of opposite side is circular.This is to cause the size predetermined allowance of above-mentioned liner reference column because considering the pyrocondensation after shell 10 injection mo(u)ldings are processed, and constitutes shape like this.
At the liner pilot hole 58a corresponding to liner 52, the position of 58b also is formed with the liner reference column of accepting the above-mentioned liner reference column of insertion upper end and accepts groove 60a, 60b on the inside surface of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A.
The leading edge of liner 52 closely is close to 2 of two ends, the left and right sides of the position in conjunction with the rear of screw pillar 56 two pillar 38b to the inlet both sides of the magnetic head/pinch roller patchhole 18c of center from the antetheca of the inside surface of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A, the dead astern of 38c is outstanding forward, while 2 pillar 38b, the part between the 38c caves in backwards.
The position of the forward wall of inside surface of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A is corresponding to 5 magnetic heads/ pinch roller patchhole 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, the part of the inlet of 18e is along with the multistage thickening of its thickness that extends back, thereby make not shown magnetic head and pinch roller to five magnetic heads/ pinch roller patchhole 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, the insertion of 18e is easier, simultaneously, has prevented that also above-mentioned antetheca closely is close to position intensity and weakens.
The antetheca of the inside surface of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A closely is close to the two ends, the left and right sides at position and closely is close to the tape cassete pilot hole 28a of position, 28b separately about the capstan of two edge and trailing edge and middle position insert 26 about two edge strengthen intensity with reinforcement 62.And then, also being formed with and the same crooked reinforcement that roughly is the U type 64 of the semicircle trailing edge of capstan patchhole 26 at the rear of capstan patchhole 26, the center about reinforcement 64 is formed with short transverse locator protrusions 64a.
Near near the two ends, the left and right sides at the position inside surface antetheca of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A tape cassete pilot hole 28a, be formed with circular angle sheave above-below direction location convex 68 on the position of the 28b deflection left and right sides, closely be close at the antetheca of the inside surface of lower half shell B sidewall 14b on the position of position correspondence and also be formed with angle sheave above-below direction location convex 68, be used for locating position of rotating the above-below direction (short transverse) of the angle sheave of supporting freely by center of rotation described later.

As can be seen from Figure 5, locate convex 88 to the tape 34 its tape guidance pin 90 that closely is close to from the tape above-below direction between them from the right-hand wheel hub 32b that is wound with most of tape and pass through, and the tape 34 between the tape guidance pin 90 that the left wheel hub 32a of the tape of never reeling closely is close to it passes through from the location of the tape above-below direction between them convex 88.That is: a pair of wheel hub 32a, tape 34 between each wheel hub of 32b and the tape above-below direction locating lug 88 that closely is close to separately all will pass through on tape above-below direction locating lug 88, and be wound on a pair of wheel hub 32a, it doesn't matter for the quantity of the tape 34 of reeling on the periphery separately of 32b.
Further the two ends of closely being close to the leaf spring of the position of position regulation installing 50 as the antetheca of Fig. 5 from the inside surface of the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B along the double dot dash line X that slightly extends perpendicular to the leading edge of sidewall 14b represented, the corresponding position that above-mentioned two ends are reached on the length direction of the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B faces by a pair of wheel bore 12, the a pair of wheel hub 32a of 12 location, the periphery separately of 32b.And the two ends of leaf spring 50 are preferably in the operation to tape 34 does not produce the scope of obstacle on the length direction of sidewall 14b of lower half shell B and extend to than a pair of wheel hub 32a, the position that 32b periphery separately is more outside.
When tape between a pair of angle sheave 82 along five magnetic heads/ pinch roller patchhole 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, under the situation of the partial relaxation that 18e extends, the two end portions of the leaf spring 50 of Yan Shening has just prevented that the tape that relaxes from entering within the inside surface of sidewall 14b of lower half shell B side and going like this.In a single day tape 34 enters into inside like this, make tape at a pair of wheel hub 32a, and when advancing between the 32b, tape 34 hangs over the two ends of leaf spring will damage the tape stable operation of speed in accordance with regulations, also can damage the situation of tape.
Among this embodiment, corresponding to a pair of wheel hub 32a on the inside surface of the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B, draw on the periphery of 32b tape the position lower half shell B about have the intermediate, inclined cut-off rule 20c of clear expression on Fig. 2 on the position of two walls, so by the height of the above-mentioned left and right sides wall that limits than the horizontal cut-off rule 20a in intermediate, inclined cut-off rule 20c the place ahead more forward with regard to step-down, in Fig. 2 clearly expression.Its result, at a pair of wheel hub 32a, the operation that between the 32b aforesaid tape 34 volumes is hung on a pair of guide finger 90 and a pair of angle sheave 82,82 just becomes easily, that is: the assembling in the manufacture process of the magnetic tape cassette of present embodiment is just easily.
As shown in Figure 5, liner 49 is placed on the position of inside surface regulation of sidewall 14b of lower half shell B, and then, tape 34 is at a pair of wheel hub 32a, between the 32b along five magnetic heads/ pinch roller patchhole 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, following a pair of wheel hub of state that 18e extends is installed in assigned position.Then, utilize the upper end of 2 liner reference columns 73 of the left and right sides that rear wall on the sidewall 14b inside surface of lower half shell B closely is close to the position liner 52 location of upper half shell A one side, and a pair of wheel hub 32a, the upper axial end of 32b cover.
Then, with 4 pillar 38a of upper half shell A antetheca, 38b, 38c, 38d pushes 5 magnetic heads/pinch roller patchhole 18a that closely is close to the position along the antetheca of the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B, 18b, 18c from oblique front upper place, 18d, the tape 34 that 18e extends covers upper half shell A on lower half shell B simultaneously.
Here, the central little cylinder of 4 jiaos 2 rank attachment screw pillar 56 cylindraceous on the sidewall 14a inside surface of upper half shell A is inserted in the spot-facing part of inlet of combined hole 72a of 4 jiaos attachment screw column 72 on the inside surface of sidewall 14b of lower half shell B, makes over against the relative position of the horizontal direction of the upper half shell A of lower half shell B and coincide.
In addition, because 6 guide fingers 90 of guiding tape 34 operations that contact with tape 34 inside surfaces, 94 and angle sheave 82, all be arranged on device with the leaf spring 50 of tape pad 36 in addition a pair of wheel hub 32a with tape 34 has been arranged, on the inside surface of the sidewall 14b of the lower half shell B of 32b, so above-mentioned upper half shell A is overlapped just can be a pair of wheel hub 32a before on the lower half shell B, tape 34 between the 32b is made the tape row inbound path that limits by above-mentioned various guide elementses in order on the side wall inner surfaces of lower half shell B, thereby assembling is facing to the upper half shell A of lower half shell B easily.That is to say, be easy to assembling in the manufacture process of the magnetic tape cassette of this embodiment.
After this, attachment screw 22 is inserted in four jiaos the screw insertion hole 54 of sidewall 14a of upper half shell A, is screwed in again among 4 jiaos the combined hole 72a of sidewall 14b of lower half shell B, thereby as shown in Figure 1 to Figure 3 upper and lower half shell is combined.Further cosmetic sheet 30 is attached to the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A and lower half shell B, the outside surface of 14b hides screw 22 get up.
Fig. 9 represents is the state of assigned position that the magnetic tape cassette as the 1st embodiment of the present invention of the structure of above commentary is contained in the device of the use magnetic tape cassette as the sound-track engraving apparatus.On this figure, in order to represent the inner structure of magnetic tape cassette, cutd open 5 magnetic heads of antetheca/pinch roller patchhole 18a of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A, 18b, 18c, 18d, four pillar 38a between the 18e, 38b, 38c, the antetheca of the sidewall 14a of 38d and upper half shell A closely is close to 2 liner roof pressure projection 70a at position, and 70b represents with horizontal section.And, can see two liner roof pressure projection 70a, the jag of 70b is being supported the appearance of holding about the leading edge of the liner 49 on the inside surface of sidewall 14b of lower half shell B.
As shown in Figure 9, a pair of reel shaft 100a of said apparatus, 100b are inserted in the sidewall 14a of upper and lower half shell of the shell 10 of magnetic tape cassette on the afore mentioned rules position, and a pair of wheel hub 32a that exposes in the 14b a pair of wheel bore 12,12 separately is among the 32b; The capstan 102 of said apparatus inserts in the capstan patchhole 26 of central authorities that above-mentioned each antetheca closely is close to the position; The a pair of tape cassete register pin 104a of said apparatus, 140b inserts two ends, the left and right sides tape cassete pilot hole 28a that above-mentioned each antetheca closely is close to, among the 28b.On the position of afore mentioned rules, also the shell of magnetic tape cassette is imposed elastic force forward with the spring assembly of not shown leaf spring and so on.The result of making is the tape cassete pilot hole 28a the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B like this, and the trailing edge of 28b withstands on a pair of tape cassete register pin 104a, the tape cassete location division of the circle of the side face of 104b, thus define the position of the locational fore-and-aft direction of afore mentioned rules.Two edge contact with the periphery of corresponding tape cassete register pin 104b about the right-hand tape cassete pilot hole 28b of the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B, thereby define the locational left and right directions of afore mentioned rules position.
In addition, as previously mentioned, because a pair of wheel hub 12,12 and the size of the Width of leading axis hole 26 shell 10 separately greater than the size of length direction, so, be inserted into a pair of reel shaft 100a in these holes when even shell 10 is subjected to above-mentioned forward elastic force, 100b and capstan 102 can be a pair of wheel hub 32a yet, 32b and capstan 102 itself lean in the rear end in a pair of wheel bore 12,12 and leading hole 26, thereby have guaranteed their normal rotation.
As shown in Figure 9, the pinch roller 106 of said apparatus is facing to the magnetic head/pinch roller patchhole 18c that is contained in the magnetic tape cassette antetheca central authorities in the said apparatus; The record of said apparatus/the put magnetic head/pinch roller patchhole 18d of dual-purpose magnetic head 108 over against central magnetic head/pinch roller patchhole 18c right side; The erase head 110 of said apparatus faces the magnetic head/pinch roller patchhole 18e of right-hand member.
For the tape 34 in the shell 10 of magnetic tape cassette along 5 magnetic heads/ pinch roller patchhole 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, 18e is at a pair of angle sheave 82, the part of extending between 82, since a pair of tape pad 36 of leaf spring 50 tape to sinciput, two the pillar 38b of central authorities between a pair of tape pad 36 of while, two pillar 38a in 38c and 36 liang of outsides of a pair of tape pad, 38d is tape roof pressure backward, so this part tape is wavy bending a little.
In addition, 4 pillar 38a that the inside surface antetheca of the sidewall 14a of upper half shell A closely is close to, 38b, 38c, the inside surface antetheca of the sidewall 14b of 38d and lower half shell B closely are close to the tape that constituted between four tape guidance pins 94 at position by tape 34 by using the gap.
Therefore, though a pair of tape pad 36 of leaf spring 50 the roof pressure forward of the tape between the angle sheave 82,82, but as long as not owing to a pair of wheel hub 32a, the tape 34 that makes between them that freely rotates of 32b relaxes, because four pillar 38a of upper half shell 14a antetheca, 38b, 38c, the antetheca of the sidewall 14b of 38d and lower half shell B closely is close to the interaction of four guide fingers 94 at position, and then tape 34 just can not pass through 5 magnetic head/ pinch roller patchhole 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d, 18e are projected into the outside.
Figure 10 represents is that said apparatus is set at the said apparatus under information record (REC) pattern situation and the state of above-mentioned magnetic tape cassette.At this moment, the pinch roller 106 of said apparatus, record/put three magnetic heads/pinch roller patchhole 18c that dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and erase head 110 are inserted into the antetheca correspondence of magnetic tape cassette, among 18d and the 18e, and, pinch roller 106 tape 34 is pressed on the periphery of capstan 102 and capstan is collaborative seizes tape 34 on both sides by the arms, record/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 the tape roof pressure on the tape pad 36 of correspondence, tape 34 is held in 36 cooperations under the arm with the tape pad, and erase head 110 roof pressures are on tape 34.
Record/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 the tape roof pressure on tape pad 36, make the leaf spring 50 right-hand ends overcome the elastic force of spring self from initial, set position shown in Figure 9 deflection backwards, at this moment can produce the elastic force of energizing of about 103mN ± 34mN, the above-mentioned elastic force of energizing is preferably in the scope of 69mN to 137mN, 1mN=10-3N.
When being set at the information logging mode, capstan 102 is along the speed rotation in accordance with regulations of the clockwise direction among Figure 10, and left side reel shaft 100a turns clockwise with the rotating speed faster speed than capstan 102, and the reel shaft 100b on right side is in the state that freely rotates.
On capstan 102 and the pinch roller 106 concerted actions wheel hub 32b periphery from the right side reel shaft 100b that freely rotates the speed of tape 34 with regulation is pulled out, be wound on from the tape 34 of discharging between capstan 102 and the pinch roller 106 on the periphery of the wheel hub 32a on the left side reel shaft 100a of speed rotation in accordance with regulations.Not shown free-wheeling mechanism in reel shaft 100a sponges the speed discrepancy between capstan 102 and the left side reel shaft 100a.
Concerning the tape 34 of speed operation in accordance with regulations as mentioned above, erase head 110 is at first erased the information and the noise that are recorded on the tape 34, then because device is set at recording mode, is used as the record of write head/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and supply is recorded/put on the magnetic recording face that the information of dual-purpose magnetic head 108 is recorded in tape 34.
Because the tape that dual-purpose magnetic head 108 was being recorded/put to the above-mentioned elastic force of energizing that the right part of leaf spring 50 produces to the tape roof pressure through tape pad 36 slips on the face, so can not produce excessive wearing and tearing to magnetic head 108, and can be recorded in information on the tape 34 equably all the time.
At this moment, the rotating speed official post of left side reel shaft 100a and capstan 102 is born the tension load that is referred to as to call backward pull from the tape 34 of the periphery of the wheel hub 32a to the reel shaft 100a of left side between capstan 102 and the pinch roller 106, so prevented tape 34 lax between above-mentioned.Therefore, tape between the guide finger 94 in pinch roller 106 left sides and the angle sheave 82 in left side overcomes that the left part of leaf spring 50 produces the above-mentioned elastic force and of energizing tape pad roof pressure backward, and tape 34 is moved in the position of roughly approaching the common linearity tape row inbound path shown in the double dot dash line 92 among Fig. 4.
When said apparatus is set in playback (PLAY) pattern, with the same pinch roller 106 under the situation of above-mentioned logging mode with record/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 roof pressure tapes 34, and cooperate with capstan 102 and tape pad 36 and to seize tape 34 on both sides by the arms, and erase head 110 is in shown in Figure 9 and tape 34 discontiguous positions.Capstan 102 and a pair of reel shaft 100a, the situation of 100b action separately and above-mentioned logging mode is identical.
Record/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and be used as playback head, the information playback that has write down on the tape with above-mentioned fixing speed operation is come out.Because record/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and come the situation of usefulness identical as write head with above-mentioned, so, can not produce excessive wearing and tearing to magnetic head, and can from the record surface of tape 34, reset information come out equably all the time.
Can be set at F.F. (FF) pattern to said apparatus, when being in fast-forward mode, capstan 102, pinch roller 106, record/put magnetic head 108 and erase head 110 all is on the position shown in Figure 9, not with contact with tape.
Therefore, tape 34 is wound onto on the periphery of the wheel hub 32a on the left side reel shaft 100a that rotates with fixing speed along clockwise direction, and the wheel hub 32b from the right side tep reel 100b that freely rotates goes up to be come out by drawing.In this case, the diameter of the tape of rolling up on the wheel hub 32a periphery on the reel shaft 100a of left side 34 becomes big more, and the travelling speed of tape 34 is also just fast more.
Above-mentioned device can also be set at fast (REW) pattern of falling, and is the same with the situation of above-mentioned fast-forward mode when fast reverse mould formula, capstan 102, pinch roller 106, records/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and eraser 110 does not contact with tape 34.But opposite with the situation of above-mentioned fast-forward mode, left side reel shaft 100a is under the state that freely rotates, and right side reel shaft 100b counterclockwise rotates with the speed of regulation.
Therefore, opposite with the situation of above-mentioned fast-forward mode, tape 34 is wound onto and becomes on the periphery of counter clockwise direction with the wheel hub 32b on the right side reel shaft 100b of fixing speed rotation, and is drawn out from the wheel hub 32a that becomes on the left side reel shaft 100a that freely rotates.In this case, the diameter of the tape of reeling on the periphery of the wheel hub 32b on the reel shaft 100b of right side becomes big more, and the speed of travel of tape 34 is just fast more.
Above-mentioned device is when being set at some patterns of fast-forward mode and fast reverse mould formula, as the record of playback head/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and contact with tape, so just can on F.F. or the tape that falls soon 34, come out the information playback that is recorded on the tape 34.
The situation of playback information is referred to as F.F. selected songs (CUE) pattern under the fast-forward mode, and the situation of playback information is referred to as inquiry (REVIEW) pattern under the fast reverse mould formula.F.F. selected songs pattern or query pattern are used to for example retrieve the occasion that is recorded in the information on the tape.
Said apparatus is being set under the situation of F.F. selected songs or query pattern, is recording/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and be in the position shown in Figure 10 double dot dash line, just than littler under logging mode or the replay mode situation apart from roof pressure tape 34.
At this moment record/put the not inside roof pressure tape 34 of dual-purpose magnetic head 108 but corresponding as previously mentioned tape pad 36 outside roof pressure tapes 34, so, even under F.F. selected songs or query pattern, record/put the just light tape 34 of pressing of dual-purpose magnetic head 108, also can positively be close to the tape of recording/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 to tape 34 and slip on the face.Therefore, in fact do not reduce the F.F. of tape 34 or fall speed soon, and can from the record surface of tape 34, reset information come out equably.
What represent on Figure 11 is the outboard profile that tape guidance wheel 82 has amplified.
Among this embodiment, the 82 usefulness polyacetal resin injection mo(u)ldings of tape guidance wheel are processed into, because the mould of this use in injection molding can not produce the mould cut-off rule on the angle sheave periphery of contact tape, so, there is not the mould cut-off rule corresponding to above-mentioned periphery position yet.Therefore, above-mentioned mould is made of main mould, the 1st secondary mould and the 2nd secondary mould, and main mould is formed with a shrinkage pool that limits angle sheave 82 periphery integral body, and the part that is equivalent to angle sheave 82 axial both ends of the surface has opening; The 1st secondary mould can combine with the openings that face toward an axial side of main mould along angle sheave 82 axial freedom discretely; And the 2nd secondary mould can with combine to the opening of opposite side facing to main mold shaft discretely along angle sheave 82 is axially free.The 2nd secondary mould has the center bar that inserts the above-mentioned open centre of main mould and limit the angle sheave center pit and opens above-mentioned opening and inject the resin that melting resin uses to above-mentioned shrinkage pool and penetrate the hole.
As shown in figure 11, the side separately of the pair of flanges 82b of the main body 82a side of tape guidance wheel 82 is made of the scalene cone that the axial two ends from the periphery of main body 82a gradually far and gradually enlarge along radial direction.This scalene cone is set at 30 ° to 45 ° for the tilt angle alpha with the line (the radial direction line of main body 82a periphery) of the center line quadrature of main body 82a.
Because above-mentioned angle α is made to become above-mentioned value, after the injection mo(u)lding process finishing so, the 1st secondary mould and the 2nd secondary mould are separated, if a square shaft of the tape guidance that forms in the above-mentioned shrinkage pool of roof pressure master mould wheel 82 is to end face, tape guidance wheel 82 will be forced to eject from another opening of the above-mentioned shrinkage pool of the corresponding main mould of the opposing party's axial end of tape guidance wheel.At this moment, the part of periphery that limits the main body 82a of tape guidance wheel 82 in the main mould shrinkage pool is pushed the flange 82b of the axial end of angle sheave 82 1 sides towards above-mentioned discharge side and the crooked diameter that becomes above-mentioned part (that is: with the main body 82a of tape guidance wheel 82 the identical diameter of periphery) in the opposite direction, yet after tape guidance wheel 82 is discharged from main mould shrinkage pool, because the elastic force that himself has can revert to original shape to it fully.
Among this embodiment, a pair of tape guidance wheel 82 weight separately is set in the scope of 0.43mN to 0.70mN, and it is optimum to be set at 0.47mN.If the above-mentioned weight range of the weight ratio of tape guidance wheel 82 is excessive, the tape running resistance that contact with angle sheave becomes greatly, and produces excessive take-up torque, and this can hinder tape 34 smoothness runs.And, if the weight range of the weight ratio afore mentioned rules of angle sheave 82 kicks the beam, owing to and the angle sheave above-below direction locating lug 68 of the sidewall 14a inside surface of the angle sheave above-below direction locating lug 84 of the sidewall 14b inside surface of angle sheave central shaft 80, lower half shell B, upper half shell A between the static that produces of rubbing contact tape guidance wheel 82 is seriously influenced, and can not smoothly rotate, thereby also can hinder the smoothness run of tape 34.
In the above embodiments, a pair of wheel hub 12, each wheel bore can constitute as Fig. 1 is represented, that is: the symmetria bilateralis at shell 10 is provided with a pair of semicircle 12a with diameter, 12b, connect the two ends separately of a pair of semicircle respectively by pair of parallel straight line 12c, and a pair of semicircle 12a, get off smoothly continuously with the two ends of a pair of straight line 12c respectively in the two ends separately of 12b.Yet, a pair of wheel bore 12 ' also can be by the formation shown in Figure 12 solid line, that is: the length of a pair of straight line 12c ' that is parallel to each other is longer than the length of a pair of straight line 12c of the wheel bore 12 of Fig. 1 (among Figure 12 shown in the double dot dash line), the two ends of a pair of straight line 12c ' a pair of circular arc 12a ' of diameter greater than a pair of straight line 12c ' spacing, 12b ' couples together, thereby constitutes wheel bore 12 '.In this case, a pair of circular arc 12a ', being connected between the two ends separately of the two ends separately of 12b ' and a pair of straight line 12c ' is to have seamlessly transitted no longer just, but is identical at the wheel bore 12 ' of the wheel bore 12 of function aspects previous embodiment and above-mentioned variation.
Figure 13 is the planimetric map that the magnetic tape cassette according to the 2nd embodiment of the present invention is contained in the state of assigned position in the device of the use magnetic tape cassette of sound-track engraving apparatus and so on for example.Figure 14 is the planimetric map of the state of pinch roller, record/the put dual-purpose magnetic head of Figure 13 device magnetic tape cassette that contacts Figure 13 with erase head.
The structure of the magnetic tape cassette of the structure of the magnetic tape cassette of this embodiment most of and the 1st embodiment of the present invention that describes in detail referring to figs. 1 through Figure 11 is identical, and identical parts are marked with identical reference marks, has omitted detailed description.
The difference of the cassettes structure of the magnetic tape cassette of the 2nd embodiment and the 1st embodiment is that the antetheca that the guide finger 120 among the 2nd embodiment has replaced the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B in the 1st embodiment closely is close to the angle sheave 82 that the rotation of right part, position is being supported freely.
And, rolling up leaf spring 122 on the periphery of guide finger 120, the exterior region of the tape cassete pilot hole 28b of the cross-section above-mentioned right part of one end of this leaf spring 122 extends out, and is fixed with the tape pad 124 of tape 34 inner faces among the magnetic head/pinch roller patchhole 18e that leaves right-hand member slightly backward at the above-mentioned end of leaf spring 122.
As shown in figure 14, when erase head 110 roof pressure tapes 34, tape 34 just is crushed on the tape pad 124.That is: tape pad 124 and erase head 110 are seized tape 34 on both sides by the arms.
This seizing on both sides by the arms can make the tape of erase head 110 slip face contact tape with roughly certain friction force all the time, so not only can stablize the action of the erase head 110 that faces toward with tape 34, and can stablize the tape running speed of tape 34.
And as long as erase head 110 roof pressure tape not, tape pad 124 tape of just getting along well contacts, thereby can not produce unnecessary running resistance to tape.
The antetheca of the sidewall 14b that such tape pad 124 also can install at lower half shell B closely is close to the leading edge position of the tape cassete pilot hole 28a of left part, position, in this case, the antetheca that replaces the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B with guide finger closely is close to the left part at position and rotates the angle sheave of supporting freely 82, on this guide finger periphery, be wound with leaf spring, the exterior region of the tape cassete pilot hole 28a of the cross-section above-mentioned left part of one end extends out, be fixed with the tape pad on an end of this leaf spring, the inside of its tape 34 from left end magnetic head/pinch roller patchhole 18a is left a bit at interval slightly backward.
If the antetheca at the sidewall 14b of lower half shell B closely is close to the tape cassete pilot hole 28a at the two ends, the left and right sides at position, the exterior region of 28b all is provided with the tape pad, even the magnetic tape cassette turn-over, also can use with above-mentioned the samely.
State in the use in the device of magnetic tape cassette of the 2nd embodiment, use to record/put/smear the dual-purpose magnetic head and replace recording/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108.Detect special-purpose magnetic head with signal simultaneously and substitute eraser 110, like this, when being set at F.F. selected songs or query pattern, can only detecting special-purpose magnetic head to signal and contact with the tape 34 of high speed tape transport.
Tape in the magnetic tape cassette of above-mentioned in addition the 2nd embodiment also can make the cleaning tape that is coated with lapping powder or clean-out system on the magnetic head surface in contact of basal film.
Under the situation of magnetic tape cassette with the 2nd example structure as the cartridge tape that accommodates cleaning tape, the tape that erase head 110 or the signal that replaces it are detected magnetic head slips the surface and can not produce undue wear, and can be cleaned equably.
At last, the shell 10 of the part that conduct contacts with tape 34 among the aforementioned the 1st and the 2nd embodiment, tape guidance wheel 82, wheel hub 32a, 32b and liner 49,52 all is to make with the above-mentioned various materials of selecting, this just can be for stablizing the tape running speed of tape 34 accurately when tape 34 is advanced, and make tape reach necessary suitable take-up torque all the time.
The occurrence of this take-up torque is as follows:
(1) under the no load condition (recording/put the state that dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and erase head 110 do not contact tape), tape 34 is from a pair of wheel hub 32a, when a certain side of 32b is wound up into the opposing party, to a pair of wheel hub 32a, the torque total that 32b measures separately (i.e. two dishes torque) must be below 0.29mNm, a pair of wheel hub 32a, the torque (single-deck torque) that the folk prescription of 32b is measured must be less than 0.145mNm.
(2) have under the state (recording/put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and the some at least states that contacts tape of eraser 110) of load, tape a pair of wheel hub 32a when a certain side of a pair of wheel hub is rolled onto the opposing party, the torque that 32b measures separately adds up to must be below 1.96mNm.
(3) special load condition (is recorded/is put dual-purpose magnetic head 108 and do not contact tape with erase head 110, and at the state that imposes the post-tensioning moment of 0.49mNm on the tape 34 of an above-mentioned side's wheel hub 32a or 32b (sending the wheel hub of side)) under, tape is when a certain side of a pair of wheel hub is rolled onto the opposing party, to a pair of wheel hub 32a, the torque that 32b measures separately adds up to must be below 2.94mNm.
