Abstract

PURPOSE:To rewind, stop and reproduce with one time of switching operation by making a recording medium start to reproduce to a reproducing means with a control circuit after a recording medium is rewinded only by a previous set recording time by operating an operational switch being a re-reproducing switch. CONSTITUTION:When the re-reproducing switch 11 is operated, by the control circuit 3 connected with the switch 11, the rewinding of the recording medium 1 is commanded to the reproducing means 2 and the recording medium 1 is rewinded only by the previous set short time of one to two minutes. When the medium is rewinded only by this set time, the rewinding is stopped, the reproducing is commanded and the record of the medium 1 is reproduced with the reproducing circuit 2a, a speaker 2c and a display 2b by the circuit 3. Further, when the switch 11 is operated, again while reproducing the record, after the stoppage of medium 1 is commanded to the means 2, the above-mentioned operation is performed by the circuit 3. Thus, by the operation of one time of the switch 11, the medium 1 is rewinded automatically by a short time and reproduced succeedingly.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle-mounted reproducing device for magnetic recording tapes, video disks, etc., which are loaded on automobiles, aircrafts, ships and the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, players such as magnetic recording tapes and video discs have become extremely small, and video monitors are changing from cathode ray tubes to thin LCD displays. Are especially interested in passengers who are traveling long distances such as highways.

A conventional vehicle-mounted regenerator will be described below. FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a conventional vehicle-mounted reproducing device. In FIG. 3, reference numeral 1 is a recording medium such as a video tape or video disk in which video / audio information is mainly recorded, and 2 is a reproducing circuit 2a for reproducing the information recorded in the recording medium 1 and outputting the reproduced information through a display 2b or a speaker 2c. The reproducing means 3 is a control circuit for controlling the movement of the recording medium 1 and the reproducing means 2, 4 is connected to the control circuit 3, and the reproducing means 2 is operated through the control circuit 3 by an operation switch to reproduce, stop, and record the recording medium 1. An operation switch 5 for performing operations such as fast-forwarding and returning is a battery for supplying power to the reproducing means 2 and the control circuit 3.

As is well known, the control circuit detects which operation of the operation switch has been instructed and controls the reproducing means 2a so as to perform the instructed operation. When the reproduction operation switch is operated, the reproduction circuit 2a reproduces the recorded information on the recording medium 1 and outputs it to the display 2b and the speaker 2c. When the stop switch is operated, the reproduction circuit 2a stops reproduction of the recording medium. The same applies to the fast forward and rewind operations.

[0005]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional configuration, the operation itself is so simple that the operator must always pay attention to it. Operating a car-mounted player is extremely dangerous. In particular, when driving a long distance, it is necessary to rewind a little for each break in order to remember the contents before the break, or "rewind", and after a while, "stop" and "regenerate", which is a troublesome work. Had a problem.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle-mounted regenerator that rewinds, stops, and replays with a single switch operation.

[0007]

To achieve this object, a vehicle-mounted reproducing apparatus of the present invention has a reproducing means for reproducing a recording medium, a control circuit for controlling the reproducing means, and an operation connected to the control circuit. The control circuit causes the reproducing means to rewind the recording medium for a preset recording time by the operation of the operation switch, and then starts reproduction.

[0008]

According to the present invention, the recording medium being reproduced can be rewound by a single switch operation for a short time of 1 to 2 minutes, automatically stopped, and reproduced again by the operation of one switch.

[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 11 denotes a newly provided reproducing switch, which is connected to the control circuit 3 and can rewind and reproduce for a preset time according to the operation thereof. The other components are the same as those of the embodiment.

When the reproducing switch 11 is operated again while the in-vehicle reproducing device is stopped, the control circuit 3 connected to the reproducing switch 11 again instructs the reproducing means 2 to rewind the recording medium 1, After rewinding for a short time of 1 to 2 minutes which has been set, the rewinding is stopped and a command is issued to reproduce. When the reproduction switch is operated again while the vehicle-mounted reproducing device is reproducing the recording medium 1, the control circuit 3 instructs the reproducing means 2 to stop the recording medium 1 and then causes the above-described operation. These operations are shown in the flowchart of FIG.

As described above, according to the vehicle-mounted reproducing apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention, since the control circuit is provided with the reproducing switch again for outputting the rewinding, stopping, and reproducing commands of the recording medium to the reproducing means, once. By again operating the reproduction switch, the recording medium is automatically rewound for a short time and can be reproduced continuously.

[0013]

As is apparent from the above embodiments, according to the present invention, the operation of the control circuit causes the control circuit to rewind the recording medium to the reproducing means for a preset recording time and then to start the reproduction again. Since it is provided, it is possible to provide a vehicle-mounted regenerator that can be rewound, stopped, and regenerated by a single switch operation.
