[Background technology and its problems]

As is well known, a mechanical shut-off mechanism mechanically detects when the tape has stopped running due to the end of the tape during tape running in recording or playback mode, etc., and uses a drive that is constantly driven by a motor. The driver uses his/her body to drive the shut-off lever in a predetermined direction to perform a shut-off operation for automatically switching to the stop mode.

By the way, in many conventional mechanical shut-off mechanisms, the shutter-off operation is performed at the end of the tape in recording or playback mode, but not at the end of the tape in fast-forward or rewind mode. Alternatively, the mechanism for avoiding engagement of the shut-off lever with the drive body in the rewind mode is extremely complicated.

[Purpose of the invention]

〔Example〕

An embodiment of a shut-off mechanism in which the present invention is applied to a small cassette tape recorder will be described below with reference to the drawings.

First, in FIGS. 1 to 4, the rotating body referred to in the present invention is constituted by a pinch roller 1. This pinch roller 1 is rotatably supported on a pinch roller lever 2 via a roller support shaft 3.
The pinch roller lever 2 is rotatably supported on the head board 5 via a fulcrum shaft 4, and is mounted so as to be urged to rotate in the direction of arrow a in FIG. 2 by a pinch roller pressure spring 6. .

In the stop mode, the play button 7 is moved back to the return position shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 2, and the pinch roller 1 is moved back to the return position shown by the imaginary line in FIG.

Next, when the play button 7 is pushed in the direction of the arrow c in FIG.
In the figure, it is returned in the direction of arrow d and is moved forward against the spring.
The pinch roller 1 is moved forward by the pinch roller lever 2 to the forward movement position shown by the solid line in FIG. At this time, the pinch roller 1 is inserted into a tape cassette (not shown), and the magnetic tape 8 in the tape cassette is pressed against the capstan 9 by the spring force of the pinch roller pressure spring 6. As a result, as the capstan 9 driven by a motor (not shown) rotates in the direction of the arrow e in FIG. 2, the magnetic tape 8 is run at a constant speed in the direction of the arrow f in FIG. Playback occurs. At this time, as the magnetic tape 8 runs at a constant speed in the direction of arrow f, the pinch roller 1 is driven to rotate in the direction of arrow g in FIG.

On the other hand, the play button lever 10 to which the play button 7 is fixed is moved forward together with the play button 7 in the direction of arrow c in FIG. It is locked by the locking plate 11 at the same time. The lock plate 11 is rotatably supported on the chassis 12 via a fulcrum shaft 13, and is urged to rotate in the direction of arrow h in FIG. 3 by a return spring (not shown). Lock the claw 14 into the hole 1
5 to lock the play button lever 10 in the forward movement position.

Next, a shut-off operating pin 16 extending upward from the end of the lock plate 11 on the fulcrum shaft 13 side is vertically fixed. As will be described later, when the end of the tape is reached during the recording or playback mode, the shutter-off operation pin 16 is pushed in the direction of arrow i in FIG. be exposed.

That is, when the shut-off operating pin 16 is pushed in the direction of the arrow i in FIG. 3, the lock plate 11 is rotated in the direction of the arrow j in FIG. The lock at the position is released. Then, the play button lever 11 and the play button 7 are integrally moved back in the direction of arrow k in FIG. 3 by the spring. Along with this, the head substrate 5 is moved back in the direction of arrow b in FIG. 2 by the spring, and the pinch roller 1 is moved back in the same direction by the pinch roller lever 2. As a result, the pinch roller 1 is separated from the capstan 9, and the running of the magnetic tape 8 is automatically stopped, resulting in a stop mode.

By the way, as shown in FIG. 4, the pinch roller 1
is formed of a rubber roller or the like and is fixed to the outer periphery of a cylindrical roller center shaft 22 made of synthetic resin or the like, and is rotated around the outer periphery of the roller support shaft 3 by the roller center shaft 22. It can be inserted freely. Further, a rotation shaft portion 23 having a smaller diameter is integrally provided at the lower end of the roller center shaft 22. The shut-off lever 21 is attached to the outer periphery of this rotating shaft portion 23.

Next, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the shutter-off lever 21 is made of synthetic resin or the like, and includes a disc 24 and an arm 25 extending to one side from the lower surface of the disc 24. are provided integrally with each other. A wedge-shaped elongated hole 26 is provided in the center of the disk 24 and tapers in one direction (the direction opposite to the arm 24). Note that the minimum width W1 on the tapered side of this wedge-shaped elongated hole 26 and the maximum width W2 on the opposite side are determined in the relationship of W1<D1 and W2≧D1, respectively, with respect to the diameter D1 of the rotating shaft portion 23. There is. Further, the end 26a of the wedge-shaped elongated hole 26 on the maximum width W2 side is formed in a semicircular arc shape. Further, a driven pin 27 extending downward from the tip of the arm 25 is vertically integrally provided, and the above-mentioned shut-off operating pin is provided on one side of the approximately intermediate portion of the arm 25 in the longitudinal direction. A driving protrusion 28 for driving 16 is integrally provided.

This shutter-off lever 21 is inserted into the outer periphery of the rotating shaft portion 23 through a wedge-shaped elongated hole 26. direction (see Figure 4) orthogonal to the direction (see Figure 4).
It is slidable in the directions of arrows l and m in the figure, and is rotatably mounted around its axis P in the directions of arrows n and o in FIG.

Next, a spring mounting pin 29 is fixed to the pinch roller lever 2 at a position near the pinch roller 1, and a biasing spring 30 is attached to the spring mounting pin 29.
is installed. This biasing spring 30 is constituted by a torsion coil spring, and is inserted into the outer periphery of the spring mounting pin 29 by a coil portion 30a. One end 30b of this biasing spring 30 is engaged in a U groove 31 formed on one side of the disc 24 of the shutter-off lever 21 from a direction substantially parallel to the tangential direction to the disc 24, and the other end 30c is a spring locking portion 32 provided on the pinch roller lever 2
(See Figure 1). In addition, U groove 31
A first contact portion 33 and a second contact portion 34 are provided within the spring 30 at an interval in the longitudinal direction of the one end 30b of the biasing spring 30.

Next, the driving body referred to in the present invention is constituted by a cam gear 37. This cam gear 37 is made of synthetic resin or the like, and has a circular recess 39 coaxially provided on its upper surface inside the outer peripheral gear 38. Inside this circular recess 39, a first cam 40 is located at the center position, and a second cam 41 is located at the peripheral position.
However, drive protrusions 42 are integrally provided at intermediate positions between these. The first cam 40 has an eccentric cam surface 40a on its outer circumferential surface, and the second cam 41 has an eccentric cam surface 4 formed in a gentle mountain shape protruding from the inner circumferential surface 39a of the circular recess 39 toward the center.
1a. The drive protrusion 42 is arranged outside the minimum radius R1 portion of the eccentric cam surface 40a of the first cam 40 with a gap 43 in between. It is outside the rotation radius of the maximum radius R2 portion of the second cam 40a and inside the rotation radius of the chevron-shaped protruding end 41b of the chevron-shaped cam surface 41a of the second cam 41. Note that the second cam 41 has a phase angle θ of approximately 90° with respect to the drive projection 42. The cam gear 37 is rotationally driven in the direction of arrow r in FIG.
The drive surface 42a is formed in a plane perpendicular to the rotation direction (direction of arrow r). However, a small protrusion 44 is integrally provided at the end of the drive surface 42a on the center side of the circular recess 39. Also, the gap 4
The width W3 of 3 is larger than the diameter D2 of the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21.

Next, the cam gear 37 having the above structure is rotatably supported on the outer periphery of a gear support shaft 47 fixed at a position near the capstan 9 at the lower part of the chassis 12. Further, a drive gear 48 is fixed to the lower end of the capstan 9 in the lower part of the chassis 12, and the drive gear 48 and the outer gear 38 of the cam gear 37 are interlocked by an intermediate gear 49. Note that the intermediate gear 49 is realized by a two-stage upper and lower gear, and the upper gear 49a is the drive gear 4.
8, and the lower gear 49b is engaged with the outer gear 3.
8 is engaged. Therefore, as described above, the cam gear 37 is configured to rotate at low speed in the direction of the arrow r in FIG. 6 via the intermediate gear 49 by the rotation of the capstan 9 in the direction of the arrow e in FIG. 6 by the motor. .

Thus, the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21 is located in an opening 50 provided in the chassis 12.
(see FIG. 4) and extends below the chassis 12, and the driven pin 27 is connected to the cam gear 3.
It is inserted into the circular recess 39 of No. 7 from above.
As described above, the shutter-off lever 21 is moved to the sixth position by the forward movement of the pinch roller 1 to the forward movement position.
It is configured to be moved to the forward movement position shown by the solid line in the figure, and to be moved to the return movement position shown by the imaginary line by the return movement of the pinch roller 1 to the backward movement position.

The shut-off mechanism of the present invention is constructed as described above and operates as follows.

First, FIG. 7A shows the recording or reproducing mode, and the shutter-off lever 21 is connected to the pinch roller 1.
At the same time, it is moved in the direction of arrow d to the forward movement position. At this time, one end 30b of the biasing spring 30 is in contact with the first contact portion 33 of the shutter-off lever 21, and the pressing force of the one end 30b in the direction of the arrow s causes the shutter-off lever 21 to move in the direction of the arrow l. Sliding biased. And the shutter-off lever 21 is biased to slide in the direction of arrow l.
The roller center shaft 22 is connected to the roller center shaft 22 by the wedge-shaped elongated hole 26.
It is crimped to the outer circumferential surface 23a of the rotating shaft portion 23 by a biting action (wedge effect).

On the other hand, in the recording or reproducing mode, as shown in FIG. 2, the magnetic tape 8 is run at a constant speed in the direction of the arrow f by the rotation of the capstan 9 in the direction of the arrow e.
Pinch roller 1 is driven to rotate in the direction of arrow g. The roller center shaft 22 is rotated together with the pinch roller 1 in the direction of arrow g in FIG. 7A.

Therefore, in the recording or reproducing mode, the shutter-off lever 21 is urged to rotate in the direction of arrow n in FIG. 7A due to the frictional force with the rotating shaft portion 23 due to the biting action of the wedge-shaped elongated hole 26. Become. The driven pin 27 at the tip of the arm 25 of the shutter-off lever 21 is connected to the first cam 40 of the gum gear 37.
The eccentric cam surface 40a is constantly pressed in the direction of arrow t. Further, the cam gear 37 is rotationally driven by the capstan 9 at a low speed in the direction of arrow r in FIG. 7A.

Therefore, in the recording or reproducing mode, the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21 is attached to the circumferential surface 40a of the first cam 40 of the cam gear 37 rotated in the direction of the arrow r, as shown by solid lines and imaginary lines in FIG. 7A. is followed and reciprocated in the directions of arrows t and u, and the shutter-off lever 21 is reciprocated (swinging motion) in the directions of arrows n and o about the rotating shaft portion 23. At this time, the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21 escapes from the driving protrusion 42 by passing through the gap 43, so that the driving protrusion 42 does not come into contact with the driven pin 27.

Next, when the magnetic tape 8 reaches the end of the tape in the recording or reproducing mode and the running of the magnetic tape 8 is stopped, the rotation of the pinch roller 1 is also stopped accordingly. Note that the capstan 9 continues to rotate.

Then, from the moment the pinch roller 1 stops rotating, the shut-off operation is performed while the cam gear 37 completes one rotation operation.

That is, at the moment when the rotation of the pinch roller 1 stops, the rotation biasing force of the shutter-off lever 21 in the direction of arrow n in FIG. 7A disappears.

Next, as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 7A, the first cam 40 of the cam gear 37 is rotated in the direction of arrow r.
By the maximum radius R2 portion of the eccentric cam surface 40a,
The driven pin 27 is pushed out in the direction of the arrow u and is stopped within the rotation locus of the drive protrusion 42 .

Next, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 7B, the driving protrusion 42 of the cam gear 37, which is being rotated in the direction of the arrow r, contacts the driven pin 27 with its driving surface 42a, causing the driven pin 27 to move in the direction indicated by the arrow Press in the r direction.

Then, as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 7B, the shutter-off lever 21 moves in the direction of the arrow m against the biasing spring 30.
The driving protrusion 28 of the arm 25 is moved to a position in front of the shut-off operation pin 16 of the lock plate 11. Then, by sliding the shutter-off lever 21 in the direction of the arrow m, the biting action of the wedge-shaped elongated hole 26 on the outer circumferential surface 23a of the rotating shaft portion 23 is released, and the maximum width W2 side of the wedge-shaped elongated hole 26 is released. The semicircular arc-shaped end 26a is brought into contact with one side of the outer circumferential surface 23a of the rotating shaft portion 23, and the further direction of the arrow m of the shutter-off lever 21 is moved.
Sliding in this direction is restricted.

At the moment when the sliding movement of the shutter-off lever 21 in the direction of the arrow m is restricted (the state shown by the virtual line in FIG. 7C), the lever is rotated in the direction of the arrow r in FIG. 7C to drive the drive protrusion 42 of the cam gear 37. The driven pin 27 is rotated by the surface 42a in the direction of the arrow r as shown by the solid line in FIG. 7C. At this time, the small protrusion 44 provided on the drive surface 42a of the drive protrusion 42
This prevents the driven pin 27 from slipping off from the drive surface 42a toward the inner gap 43, so
The driven pin 27 is reliably rotated in the direction of arrow r.

As a result of the rotation of the driven pin 27 in the direction of the arrow r, the shutter-off lever 21 integrated therewith is
is rotated in the direction of arrow n around the rotating shaft portion 23 as shown by the solid line in FIG. 7C, and the arm 25
The driving protrusion 28 is connected to the shut-off operating pin 16.
is pressed in the direction of arrow i in FIG. 3, and the above-mentioned shut-off operation is automatically performed.

As mentioned above, when the shutter-off operation is performed, the pinch roller 1 is moved back to the backward movement position at that moment, so the shutter-off lever 21 is also moved in the direction of arrow b from the forward movement position shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 7D. and is moved back to the return position shown by the solid line. At this time, the driven pin 27 slides outward from the drive surface 42a of the drive protrusion 42 and comes into contact with the inner peripheral surface 39a of the circular recess 39 of the cam gear 37.

Next, the operation when the play button 7 is pressed again after the above-mentioned shut-off operation, which is usually called a tampering operation, will be explained with reference to FIG. 7E.

That is, when the play button 7 is pressed, the shutter-off lever 21 together with the pinch roller 1 is again moved in the direction of the arrow d to the forward movement position. However, at this time, since the magnetic tape 8 has already reached the tape end, the pinch roller 1 is not rotated.

On the other hand, the cam gear 37 continues to rotate in the direction of the arrow r, and the chevron-shaped cam surface 4 of the second cam 41
The driven pin 27 is pushed out in the direction of arrow v from the position of the imaginary line to the position of the solid line by 1a, and is again stopped within the rotation locus of the drive protrusion 42. Thereafter, the driving protrusion 42 rotated in the direction of the arrow r comes into contact with the driven pin 27 again as shown by the imaginary line, and the above-described shut-off operation is performed again.

By the way, the shutter-off mechanism of the present invention does not perform the shutter-off operation in the fast-forward or rewind mode, and in the fast-forward or rewind mode, the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21
The drive protrusion 42 of the cam gear 37 does not engage with the drive protrusion 42 of the cam gear 37.

Therefore, the operation of avoiding engagement of the driven pin 27 with the driving protrusion 42 in the fast forward or rewind mode will be explained with reference to FIGS. 8A and 8B.

First, in the recording or reproducing mode, the shutter-off lever 21 is moved to the forward position as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 8A. At this time, one end 30b of the biasing spring 30 is in contact with the first contact portion 33 of the shutter-off lever 21, and the one end 30b
The shutter-off lever 21 is urged to slide in the direction of arrow l by the pressing force in the direction of arrow s.

Next, in the fast forward or rewind mode, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 8A, the shutter-off lever 21 is moved back to the backward movement position, as in the stop mode. At this time, as the pinch roller 1 moves in the direction of arrow b with respect to the cam gear 37, the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21 is moved against the cam gear 37.
The shutter-off lever 21 is rotated in the direction of arrow n on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft portion 23 of the roller center shaft 22 while being in contact with the inner circumferential surface 39a of the circular recess 39.

As a result of the above, in the fast forward or rewind mode, one end 30b of the biasing spring 30 is connected to the shutter-off lever 2.
The shutter-off lever 21 is in contact with the second abutting portion 34 of the second abutting portion 34 of the rotary shaft portion 23, and due to the pressing force of the one end 30b in the direction of the arrow y, a rotational force in the direction of the arrow o about the rotating shaft portion 23 is applied to the shutter-off lever 21. has been done. Due to this rotation biasing force, the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21 is constantly pressed against the inner circumferential surface 39a of the circular recess 39 of the cam gear 37 from the direction of arrow x.

As described above, in the fast forward or rewind mode, the driven pin 27 of the shutter-off lever 21 is prevented from engaging with the drive protrusion 42 of the cam gear 37.

Note that even in the fast forward or rewind mode, since the capstan 9 is rotated in the direction of the arrow e, the cam gear 37 is also rotated in the direction of the arrow r. Therefore, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 8B, when the second cam 41 passes, the driven pin 27 is moved in the direction of the arrow v by the chevron-shaped cam surface 41a and pushed into the rotation locus of the drive protrusion 42. Ru. However, after the second cam 41 passes, the shutter-off lever 21 is immediately rotated in the direction of the arrow o by the spring force of the one end 30b of the biasing spring 30, as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 8B. The drive pin 27 is immediately moved in the direction of the arrow x and is immediately avoided to the outside of the rotation locus of the drive protrusion 42 .

As a result of the above, in this fast forward or rewind mode, the driven pin 27 is never accidentally engaged with the driving protrusion 42, and the driven pin 27 is reliably avoided from the driving protrusion 42.

[Application example]

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, various effective applications are possible based on the technical idea of the present invention.

For example, the present invention is not limited to the tape recorder shown in the embodiment, but can also be applied to a VTR.

Further, in the embodiment, a pinch roller was used as the rotating body referred to in the present invention, but the present invention can be applied to various other rotating bodies.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, the present invention includes a reciprocating rotating body that is moved forward to a forward position in a recording or playback mode and returned to a backward position in a fast forward or rewind mode, and a rotary body that is engaged with a driving body to a predetermined position. and a rotatable shutter-off lever having a driven part that is driven in the direction, and the rotating body rotates as the tape runs while being moved forward to the forward position, and also stops the tape running. The shut-off lever has a second frictional engagement portion that frictionally engages with a first frictional engagement portion provided on the rotating body, and the shutoff lever has a second frictional engagement portion that frictionally engages with a first frictional engagement portion provided on the rotating body. The shaft is brought into contact with a first abutting portion provided on the shutter-off lever so that the frictional engagement of the second frictional engaging portion with respect to the first frictional engaging portion increases when the lever is moved forward to the forward movement position. The shutter-off lever is further provided with a biasing spring that biases the shutter-off lever in contact with the shutter-off lever;
Due to the frictional engagement force of the second frictional engagement part with respect to the frictional engagement part, the shutter-off lever is rotationally biased as the rotating body rotates, and the driven part of the shutter-off lever When the tape is held in a state in which it is not engaged with the driving body and is running in this recording or playback mode, the rotating bias of the shutter-off lever by the rotary body is released. In the shutter-off mechanism configured such that the driven portion of the shutter-off lever engages with the driving body and is driven in a predetermined direction to perform a desired shut-off operation, the rotary body is returned to a return position. In this state, the shutter-off lever is provided with a second contact portion that comes into contact with the biasing spring so that the shutter-off lever is biased to rotate in a direction opposite to the rotation bias by the rotating body; In the fast forward or rewind mode, the shutter-off lever is rotated by the biasing spring in contact with the second contact portion in a direction opposite to the rotational bias by the rotating body. The present invention also relates to a shut-off mechanism configured such that engagement of the driven portion of the shut-off lever with the driving body is avoided.

Therefore, according to the present invention, in the recording or reproducing mode, a frictional engagement force is generated between the frictional engagement part of the rotating body and the frictional engagement part of the shutter-off lever, and this frictional engagement force causes the shutter-off lever to be moved. Since the rotation is biased, the structure of the shut-off mechanism can be simplified, and the series of operations from detection of rotation stoppage of the rotating body to shut-off operation can be performed mechanically and reliably. .

The present invention also provides a mechanical shut-off mechanism configured to perform a shut-off operation at the end of the tape in recording or playback mode, but not to perform the shut-off operation at the end of the tape in fast-forward or rewind mode. However, in this case, the reciprocating motion of the rotating body is used to switch the contact state of the biasing spring against the shutter-off lever, so that one biasing spring is controlled by the friction coefficient of the rotating body in the recording or playback mode. Used as a biasing spring to frictionally engage the frictional engagement part of the shutter-off lever with the mating part, and avoid engagement of the driven part of the shutter-off lever with the driving body in fast forward or rewind mode. The structure is such that it can be used as a biasing spring for

As a result, according to the present invention, it is possible to omit a special mechanism for avoiding engagement of the driven part of the shutter-off lever with the driving body in the fast forward or rewind mode, and the mechanism is very simple and very effective. You can get something at low cost. Furthermore, in the fast forward or rewind mode, there is no risk of the driven portion of the shutter-off lever accidentally engaging the drive member and producing significant frictional noise or impact, resulting in extremely high reliability.
