Den foreliggende opfindelse angår en separat anvendelig beholder med en deri værende båndkassette og af den 1 indledningen til krav 1 angivne art.The present invention relates to a separately usable container having a tape cassette present therein and of the kind specified in the preamble of claim 1.

Der kendes båndkassettebeholdere- eller bokse til 5 musikbåndkassetter med opklappeligt dæksellåg, som er standardiserede (System PHILIPS), og som f.eks. er udformet som omhandlet i US-PS 3 532 211. Fra US-PS 3 620 361 kendes endvidere en opklappelig beholder til musikbåndkassetter, hvis dæksellåg bærer knaster til fastholdelse af spolekernerne 10 uanset kassettens orientering. Ved alle disse opklappelige beholdere eller bokse, som ganske vist indeslutter kassetten støvtæt til alle sider, kan kassetten ikke udtages med én hånd. Desuden udelukker disse opklappelige bokse muligheden for at sammenbygge flere bokse til en stabil stabel, 15 da stabelen jo hver gang må skilles ad for at kunne opklap-pe en ønsket boks. En stabling er imidlertid ofte ønskelig med henblik på en ordnet opbevaring og anbringelse af boksene og de deri indeholdte musikbåndkassetter.There are known tape cassette containers or boxes for 5 music band cassettes with folding cover lid, which are standardized (System PHILIPS), and such as. is also designed as disclosed in US-PS 3,532,211. From US-PS 3,620,361, there is also known a folding container for music cassette tapes, whose cover lids carry knobs for holding the coil cores 10 regardless of the cassette orientation. With all these collapsible containers or boxes, which admittedly contain the cassette dustproof on all sides, the cassette cannot be removed with one hand. In addition, these folding boxes exclude the possibility of assembling several boxes into a stable stack, since the stack must be separated each time in order to fold a desired box. However, a stacking is often desirable for the proper storage and storage of the boxes and the music cassette tapes contained therein.

Der kendes derfor også stabelbare båndkassettebe-20 holdere, f.eks. fra US-PS 3 904 259, US-PS 3 642 337, US-PS 3 899 229 og DE-OS 2 521 371, ved hvilke båndkassetten er tilgængelig gennem en smalside af huset. Ved den i US-PS 3 904 259 omhandlede beholder er den ene smalside af huset udformet som dæksel. Ved denne beholder kan de 25 standardiserede dimensioner ganske vist overholdes, og udtagelse af kassetten med én hånd er ligeledes mulig.Therefore, stackable tape cassette containers are also known, e.g. from US-PS 3 904 259, US-PS 3 642 337, US-PS 3 899 229 and DE-OS 2 521 371, at which the tape cassette is accessible through a narrow side of the housing. In the container disclosed in US-PS 3 904 259, one narrow side of the housing is designed as a cover. Admittedly, with this container, the 25 standard dimensions can be adhered to, and removal of the cassette with one hand is also possible.

Imidlertid må man her tage med i købet, at kassetten dels slynges fuldstændig ud af huset under fjedertryk efter åbning af dækslet, og dels er der i lukket stilling ingen 30 mulighed for fastholdelse af spolekernerne i den i huset værende kassette.However, it must be taken into account here that the cassette is partly completely thrown out of the housing under spring pressure after opening the cover, and partly in the closed position there is no possibility of retaining the coil cores in the cassette in the housing.

De i US-PS 3 642 337, US-PS 3 899 229 og DE-OSThose in US PS 3 642 337, US PS 3 899 229 and DE-OS

Da denne skuffe i- 35 midlertid selv kræver plads i huset, overstiger de ydre mål af husene til disse beholdere med skuffer de standardiserede dimensioner af de nævnte opklappelige standardbokse 1480452 521 371 tape cassette containers contain a drawer for recording the tape cassette. As this drawer temporarily requires space itself in the housing, the outer dimensions of the housings of these containers with drawers exceed the standardized dimensions of said folding standard boxes 148045

2 i hvert fald i den ene kantretning. Da indspillede mu-sikbåndkassetter Imidlertid i store styktal hidtil først og fremmest er markedsført i sådanne standardbokse, er udstillingsstativer m.v. i de forretninger, der sælger 5 kassettebånd, naturligvis indrettet til disse dimensioner, hvorfor de nævnte skuffebeholdere ikke passer i disse stativer.2 at least in one edge direction. However, since recorded music tape cassettes have been marketed in such standard boxes in large numbers so far, exhibition stands, etc. in the shops selling 5 cassette tapes, of course, adapted to these dimensions, which is why the said drawer containers do not fit in these racks.

Endvidere kan båndkassetterne ved de kendte beholdere med skuffe på grund af deres usymmetriske ud-10 formning kun anbringes med en bestemt orientering i beholderen. Ved de i US-PS 3 899 229 og DE-OS 2 521 371 omhandlede beholdere må båndkassetten eksempelvis først placeres i tværformat i den åbentstående skuffe på en sådan måde, at dens fortykkelse er rettet imod husets åbning, 15 før skuffen kan skydes ind i huset. Denne aflægning af båndkassetten i skuffen er omstændelig, idet brugeren er nødt til at vende kassetten i hånden, indtil den har den rigtige orientering. For at spare plads i højden af skuffen viser DE-OS 2 521 371 også en beholderudformning, 20 ved hvilken skuffens bundplade har udsparinger. I fig. 11 og 12 i dette skrift består bundpladen kun af to små understøtningsflader. På grund af udsparingerne i bundpladen er disse beholdere imidlertid ikke støvtætte, og der foreligger en betydelig risiko for tilsmudsning af båndet.Furthermore, the tape cassettes of the known containers with drawers due to their unsymmetrical design can only be placed with a specific orientation in the container. For example, in the containers disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,899,229 and DE-OS 2,521,371, the tape cassette must first be placed in transverse format in the open drawer in such a way that its thickening is directed toward the opening of the housing before the drawer can be slid into the drawer. the House. This laying of the tape cassette in the drawer is cumbersome as the user has to turn the cassette in his hand until it is in the correct orientation. In order to save space in the height of the drawer, DE-OS 2,521,371 also discloses a container configuration 20 at which the bottom plate of the drawer has recesses. In FIG. 11 and 12 of this specification, the base plate consists of only two small support surfaces. However, due to the recesses in the base plate, these containers are not dustproof and there is a considerable risk of soiling of the tape.

25 Endelig kendes der fra US-PS 3 836 222 et stativ, som indeholder flere skuffer til optagelse af båndkassetter. Skufferne kan skydes ind imod en fjederkraft og kan i indskudt tilstand låses automatisk. I skufferne opbevares kassetterne støvsikkert, og deres spolekerner fastholdes 30 ved hjælp af knaster. Endvidere rager kassetterne efter udløsning af holdeindretningen uden at falde ud så langt ud fra stativet, at man let kan udtage og genindsætte dem. Selv om dette stativ fremviser en række fordele med hensyn til opbevaring og udtagning af kassetter, kan det til stati-35 vet anvendte konstruktionsprincip ikke anvendes til separat anvendelige beholdere, som overholder de standardiserede dimensioner.25 Finally, US-PS 3 836 222 discloses a rack containing several drawers for recording tape cartridges. The drawers can be pushed in against a spring force and can be locked automatically when inserted. In the drawers, the cassettes are stored dust-proof and their coil cores are retained by means of cams. Furthermore, the cartridges protrude upon release of the holding device without falling out so far from the rack that it is easy to remove and reinsert them. Although this rack exhibits a number of advantages in storing and removing cartridges, the design principle applied to the rack cannot be applied to separately usable containers which comply with the standardized dimensions.

Formålet for opfindelsen er derfor under bibeholdelse af de med det sidstnævnte stativ opnåede fordele at tilvejebringe en separat anvendelig beholder af den i indledningen til krav 1 angivne art, hvis ydre dimen-5 sioner er snævert tilpasset til båndkassettens dimensioner, således at standardmålene for de almindelige markedsførte kassettebokse overholdes.The object of the invention is therefore, while retaining the advantages obtained with the latter frame, to provide a separately usable container of the kind specified in the preamble of claim 1, the outer dimensions of which are narrowly adapted to the dimensions of the tape cassette, so that the standard dimensions of the ordinary marketed cassette boxes are complied with.

Dette formål opnås ifølge opfindelsen ved det i den kendetegnende del af krav 1 angivne.This object is achieved according to the invention by the characterizing part of claim 1.

10 Herved opnås en beholder, som, når den er lukket, er fuldstændig støvtæt, og som, når den indgår i en stabil stabel af tilsvarende beholdere, kan åbnes og lukkes, uden at stabelen må adskilles, idet åbningen og lukningen såvel som udtagning og indsætning af en båndkassette i 15 beholderen bl.a. på grund af rammens skråstilling let kan foretages med én hånd. Som følge af den angivne udformning kan beholderen ifølge opfindelsen i modsætning til de foran omtalte skuffebeholdere fremstilles således, at den overholder de nævnte standardmål og derfor kan markeds-2o føres og opbevares i de sædvanlige stativer og reolsystemer.Hereby is obtained a container which, when closed, is completely dustproof and which, when contained in a stable stack of corresponding containers, can be opened and closed without the stack having to be separated, the opening and closing as well as withdrawal and inserting a tape cassette into the 15 container i.a. because of the sloping position of the frame can be easily done with one hand. As a result of the stated design, the container according to the invention, in contrast to the aforementioned drawer containers, can be manufactured to comply with the aforementioned standard dimensions and can therefore be marketed and stored in the usual racks and shelving systems.

Fortrinsvis er rammen udformet som angivet i krav 2, idet man herved undgår, at båndkassetten ved åbning af beholderen utilsigtet slynges ud af denne.Preferably, the frame is configured as claimed in claim 2, thereby preventing the tape cassette from being unintentionally thrown out of it by opening the container.

Rammens bevægelse er fortrinsvis begrænset af et 25 anslag som angivet i krav 3, idet dette anslag som angivet i krav 4 kan være anbragt således, at det sammen med rammesidedelenes udformning bestemmer rammens skråstilling i åben tilstand.The movement of the frame is preferably limited by a stop as set forth in claim 3, this stop as set forth in claim 4 being arranged so that, together with the design of the frame side parts, it determines the slanting position of the frame in the open state.

Det foretrækkes, at beholderen er udformet som an-30 givet i krav 5 og altså muliggør indsætning af en båndkassette, uden at denne først skal vendes, så den har en bestemt orientering, og hvor rammen omfatter knaster, der i beholderens lukkede tilstand indgriber i båndkassettens vikleeller spolekernehuller, idet man herved dels opnår en y-35 derligere sikkerhed mod utilsigtet udslyngning af båndkassetten ved åbning af beholderen, dels modvirker man, atIt is preferred that the container is configured as claimed in claim 5 and thus allows insertion of a tape cassette without first having to turn it so that it has a specific orientation and wherein the frame comprises knobs which, in the closed state of the container, engage in the winding or coil core holes of the tape cassette, thereby providing a further security against unintentional ejection of the tape cassette by opening the container and partly preventing the

4 148048 båndkassetten f.eks. under transport i beholderen bevæger sig i denne og eventuelt bliver beskadiget af denne grund.The tape cassette e.g. during transport the container moves in it and possibly becomes damaged for this reason.

Denne fastholdelse af båndkassetten i beholderen understøttes yderligere ved det i krav 6 angivne, idet den ba-5 geste knast herved presses fjedrende mod kassetten i beholderens lukkede tilstand.This retention of the tape cassette in the container is further supported by the method of claim 6, in that the rear cam is thereby resiliently pressed against the cassette in the closed state of the container.

Opfindelsen skal i det følgende beskrives nærmere idet der henvises til tegningen, som viser nogle udførelsesformer for beholderen ifølge opfindelsen, og på hvil-10 ken fig. 1 viser forenklet og skematisk rammen af en kassettebeholder for båndkassetter, set ovenfra, idet huset dog er vist i snit, fig. 2 forenklet og skematisk et snit gennem ram-15 men langs linien A-A i fig. 1, fig. 3 forenklet og skematisk et snit gennem beholderen i lukkestilling langs linien A-A i fig. 1, fig. 4 samme snit som i fig. 3, men i beholderens åbne stilling, og 20 fig. 5 perspektivisk, forenklet og med delvis bort- skårne partier et udførelseseksempel på en beholder i åben stilling, for største del overensstemmende med det i fig.The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the drawing which shows some embodiments of the container according to the invention, and in which fig. 1 is a top plan view of the simplified and schematic frame of a tape cassette container, but the housing is shown in section; FIG. 2 is a simplified and schematic section through the frame 15 along the line A-A in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a simplified and schematic sectional view of the container in the closing position along the line A-A in FIG. 1, FIG. 4 shows the same section as in FIG. 3, but in the open position of the container; and FIG. 5 is a perspective view, simplified and partially cut away, of an embodiment of an open position container, largely in accordance with that of FIG.

I fig. 1 og 3 er endvidere omridsene af en af de i handelen almindelige, standardiserede magnetbåndkassetter 4 antydet med 30 punkterede streger. Bortset fra fjederen 3 består alle beholderens bestanddele fortrinsvis af termoplastisk formstof, f.eks. polystyrol.The tape cassette container constructed for recording music tape cassettes is in the embodiment of FIG. 1-5 are essentially composed of three parts: Of a housing 1, a insertion member 2 and a pressure spring 3. In FIG. 1 and 3, the outlines of one of the commercially available standardized magnetic tape cartridges 4 are indicated by 30 dashed lines. Except for the spring 3, all the components of the container preferably consist of thermoplastic resin, e.g. polystyrene.

Beholderens retvinklede, flade hus 1. har udvendige dimensioner, der f.eks. kan være 1,7 x 7 x 10,9 cm, 35 og den størrelse er dermed den samme som de i handelen almindelige, standardiserede beholderes.

melse hermed lader beholderen sig udlægge eller anbringe i alle eksisterende stativer og etikettere på alle sider. Som det fremgår af fig. 1-4, består huset 1 af et par længere smalsider 6 og 7, en bagvæg 8, en øvre fladside 9 og en 5 nedre fladside, der i det følgende vil blive omtalt som husets bund 10. Betegnelsen husets bund og den i fig. 1-4 viste, til den sædvanlige brugsstilling svarende opstilling betyder dog ikke, at beholderen ikke skulle kune fungere 1 anden opstilling. Beholderen lader sig netop f.eks. på 10 samme måde anvende i opstilling på bagvæggen 8 eller holde lodret i hånden. Eller en over :fladsiderne 9 og 10 sammenbygget beholderstabel kan indtage rumlig orientering efter ønske. Det samme gælder for den enkelte beholder, som holdes i hånden. Endesiden af huset 1, som ligger over for 15 bagvæggen 8, er åben og danner en indgang 11 for indskudsorganet 2.This allows the container to be placed or placed in all existing racks and labels on all sides. As shown in FIG. 1-4, the housing 1 consists of a pair of longer narrow sides 6 and 7, a rear wall 8, an upper flat side 9 and a lower flat side, which will hereinafter be referred to as the bottom of the housing 10. The term bottom of the housing and the one shown in FIG. 1 to 4, however, the arrangement corresponding to the usual position of use does not mean that the container should not be able to function in another arrangement. The container can be used for example. 10 in the same way apply in positioning on the back wall 8 or hold vertically in the hand. Or one above: the flat sides 9 and 10 built-in container stack can take up spatial orientation as desired. The same applies to the individual container that is held in the hand. The end side of the housing 1, which faces the rear wall 8, is open and forms an entrance 11 for the insertion member 2.

Den heldige løsning af de stillede opgaver beror i det væsentlige på den særlige udformning af indskudsorganet 2 og dettes føring i huset 1. Dette indskudsorgan 2 er ud-20 formet som en af fire dele bestående ramme og har to parallelle sidedele 21 og 22, en bagside 23 og en forvæg 24, der tilstammen danner den retvinklede ramme. Med hensyn til dimensioneringen er rammen 2 tilpasset til kassettens omrids, så at kassettesmalsiderne ligger an mod de fire rammesider, 25 som det tydeligt ses af fig. 1. I rammen 2's indskudte stilling, der i det følgende vil blive betegnet som lukkestilling, ligger dens sidedele 21 og 22 an mod husets smalsider 6 og 7. Husets bagvæg 8 og rammens bagside 23 ligger parallelt over for hinanden og danner et mellemrum 25, i hvilket 3Q trykfjederen 3 befinder sig. Endvidere danner rammens forvæg 24 i lukkestilling tillukningen af husets indgang 11.The successful solution of the tasks posed essentially depends on the particular design of the insert member 2 and its guide in the housing 1. This insert member 2 is formed as one of four parts frame and has two parallel side parts 21 and 22, one back 23 and a front wall 24 forming the stem forming the right-angled frame. With regard to the sizing, the frame 2 is adapted to the outline of the cassette so that the cassette template sides abut the four frame sides 25, as is clearly seen in FIG. 1. In the interposed position of the frame 2, which will hereinafter be referred to as the closing position, its side portions 21 and 22 abut the narrow sides 6 and 7. The rear wall 8 of the housing 8 and the rear side 23 of the frame are parallel to one another and form a space 25, in which the 3Q compression spring 3 resides. Furthermore, the front wall 24 of the frame forms the closure of the entrance 11 of the housing.

En væsentlig fordel ved rammen 2 i sammenligning med traditionelle, skuffelignende indskudsorganer ligger i dens ringe pladsbehov i huset 1. Båndkassetten 4 hviler på hu-35 sets bund 10 eller på derpå anbragte længderibber 12, hvis, position blot er antydet i fig. 1, og som støtter kassetten 4's flade del. Rammen 2 udøver altså ingen understøtnings-A major advantage of the frame 2 compared to traditional drawer-like insert means lies in its low space requirement in the housing 1. The tape cassette 4 rests on the bottom 10 of the housing or on longitudinal ribs 12, the position of which is merely indicated in FIG. 1, and supporting the flat portion of cartridge 4. Thus, the frame 2 exerts no support.

Beholderen er i den her beskrevne udførelsesform dimensioneret til optagelse eller udtagning af kassetten 5 4 i langformat i alle dens fire mulige orienteringer. Fig.In the embodiment described herein, the container is sized for receiving or withdrawing the long format cassette 5 4 in all its four possible orientations. FIG.

1 og 3 viser beholderens lukkestilling, i hvilken kassetten 4 er opbevaret støvsikret, beskyttet mod rystelser og arreteret til undgåelse af uønsket drejning af dens spolekerne. Fig. 4 og 5 illustrerer beholderens åbne stilling, 10 i hvilken rammens forparti rager ud fra husets indgang 11, og indtager en skråstilling i forhold til husets bund 10.1 and 3 show the closure position of the container, in which the cassette 4 is stored dust-protected, protected from shaking and arranged to avoid unwanted rotation of its coil cores. FIG. 4 and 5 illustrate the open position of the container 10 in which the front portion of the frame protrudes from the entrance 11 of the housing and occupies an inclined position with respect to the bottom 10 of the housing.

Når rammen skydes frem til åben stilling, sker det under fjederen 3's trykvirkning, og bevægelsen finder sted ved udløsning af en holdeanordning, som reagerer ved tryk af 15 en finger på rammens forvæg 24.When the frame is pushed forward into the open position, it occurs under the compressive action of the spring 3 and the movement takes place by the release of a holding device which reacts at the pressure of 15 a finger on the front wall 24 of the frame.

Holdeanordningen til udløselig arretering af lukkestillingen imod fjederen 3's fremskydende virkning har ved husets indgang 11 en kærv 30 i den øvre fladeside 9.The holding device for releasably arresting the closing position against the protruding effect of the spring 3 has a notch 30 in the upper face 9 of the housing 11.

Kærven 30 danner et anslag for en deri indgribende tand 20 31, der er anbragt på rammen 2 oven over rammens forvæg 24..Kærven 30 og tanden 31 danner holdeanordningen og er udløselige med henblik på åbning af beholderen. Til dette formål er rammen 2's forparti, som bærer forvæggen 24 og tanden 31, delvis adskilt fra rammen ved hjælp af slidser 25 32 i sidedelene 21 og 22. Det således afsondrede forpar ti hænger altså på de smalle lister 33, som er elastisk deformerbare. I overensstemmelse hermed reagerer tanden 31 ved fingertryk på forvæggen 24 med en nedadgående bevægelse, indtil holdeanordningen fuldstændigt udløses.The notch 30 forms an abutment for an engaging tooth 20 31 disposed on the frame 2 above the front wall of the frame 24. The notch 30 and the tooth 31 form the holding device and are releasable for opening the container. For this purpose, the front portion of the frame 2, which carries the front wall 24 and the tooth 31, is partially separated from the frame by slots 25 32 in the side parts 21 and 22. The thus-separated pair of ten thus hangs on the narrow strips 33 which are elastically deformable. Accordingly, at finger pressure, the tooth 31 reacts to the front wall 24 with a downward motion until the holding device is fully released.

30 Rammen 2 har to knaster 27 og 28, der er anbragt i rammelængderetningen bag hinanden, og som fra oven griber ind i kassetten 4's viklekernehuller 13, se fig. 1-3, og fastholdes til rammen 2 på en måde, som vil blive nærmere forklaret nedenfor.

The tape cassettes 4 of the kind in question here are provided with winding core openings 13 which are disposed relative to the cassette center axis.

symmetrisk, hvad der for de hidtidige indskudsorganer medfører, at anbringelsesmulighederne begrænses til kun to kassetteorienteringer. Knasterne 27 og 28 er imidlertid her i henseende til position og dimensioner indrettet 5 til at muliggøre alle fire kassetteorienteringer i rammen 2. De flade knaster 27 og 28 ligger her i rammen 2's længdeakse og dermed også i kassettens længdeakse og er i forhold til denne spejlsymmetriske. Men ved en vending af en kassette på 180° om dens længdeakse overlapper de to hul-10 positioner 13 og 13' hinanden med en fælles hulandel 13", som det fremgår af fig. 1. Knasterne 27 og 28 er derfor placeret og dimensioneret på en sådan måde, at de kun i den overlappende hulandel 13" tager ind i viklekernehul-lerne 13 og uden at overskride denne er i indgreb med 15 båndspolernes tandkrans 14. Som det ses, bevirker knasterne 27 og 28 i det overlappende hulområde 13" som følge af kassetten 4's stilling mellem rammesiderne 21-24 den ønskede arretering.symmetrical, which means for the present insertion means that the placement possibilities are limited to only two cassette orientations. However, in this respect to position and dimensions, the lugs 27 and 28 are arranged 5 to enable all four cassette orientations in the frame 2. The flat lugs 27 and 28 are located here in the longitudinal axis of the frame 2 and thus also in the longitudinal axis of the cassette and are in relation to this mirror symmetrical . However, by reversing a cassette of 180 ° about its longitudinal axis, the two hole positions 13 and 13 'overlap with a common hole portion 13 "as shown in Fig. 1. The lugs 27 and 28 are therefore positioned and sized in such a way that, only in the overlapping hole portion 13 ", they engage the winding core holes 13 and, without exceeding it, engage the tooth ring 14 of the tape coils 14. As can be seen, the lugs 27 and 28 in the overlapping hole region 13" act as due to the position of the cassette 4 between the frame sides 21-24 the desired arresting.

Som det tydeligt er vist i fig. 4, indtager ram-20 men 2 i sin åbne stilling en skrå beliggenhed i forhold til husets bund 10 under alsidig frigivelse af husets indgang 11.

Rammen 2 er under sin bevægelse fremad til åbenstilling ført på en sådan måde, at den først udfører en langsgående bevægelse og i tilslutning dertil en kipbevægelse til den omtalte skråstilling. Den 30 langsgående bevægelse skyder herunder kassetten 4 et ønsket stykke ud af huset 1, mens kipbevægelsen dels frigiver husets indgang 11 og kassettens forreste del, dels også fjerner knasterne 27 og 28 fra viklekerneåbningerne 13.As is clearly shown in FIG. 4, the frame 20 but 2, in its open position, occupies an oblique position with respect to the bottom 10 of the housing during the versatile release of the entrance of the housing 11. The part of the frame which remains in open position in the interior of the housing should have a greater length than the protruding one. frame portion, hereinafter referred to as the front portion, to prevent the projected cassette 4 from falling out of the housing by itself in this position 1. The frame 2 is guided forwardly into open position in such a manner that it first performs a longitudinal movement and then a tilting movement to the said inclined position. The longitudinal movement including the cassette 4 shoots a desired piece out of the housing 1, while the tipping movement partly releases the entrance 11 of the housing and the front part of the cassette and partly also removes the lugs 27 and 28 from the winding core openings 13.

Rammen 2 skydes i åben stilling så langt frem, 35 som afstanden mellem rammebagsiden 23 i lukkestilling og et foran denne anbragt husanslag 35 tillader. Dette hus- 148045 ο δ anslag 35 rager her på tandlignende måde fra den øvre hus- fladside 9 ind i husets indre. Desuden befinder anslaget 35 sig umiddelbart foran og over den bageste knast 28.The frame 2 is pushed into the open position as far forward as the distance between the frame back side 23 in the closing position and a housing stop 35 positioned in front of it allows. This housing 35 protrudes here in a tooth-like manner from the upper housing surface 9 into the interior of the housing. In addition, the stop 35 is located immediately in front of and above the rear cam 28.

Rammens fremskydningsbevægelse er derfor en smule større i udstrækning end afstanden fra rammebagsiden 23 til den 5 bageste knast 28. Fordi denne afstand også svarer til strækningen mellem rammeforvæggen 24 og den forreste knast 27, skydes rammen 2 kun frem, indtil den forreste knast 27 træder ud af husets indgang 11. Det er væsent-ligt, at et til husanslaget 35 svarende anslag på husbunden 10 mangler. Under fjederkraften udøves der derfor mod rammebagsiden 23 et drejningsmoment, når den med sin overkant 38 ligger an mod anslaget 35. Hermed danner husanslaget 35 et drejeled for rammen 2.Therefore, the frame advance movement is slightly larger than the distance from the frame back 23 to the 5 rear cam 28. Because this distance also corresponds to the distance between the frame wall 24 and the front cam 27, the frame 2 is only pushed forward until the front cam 27 exits. It is essential that a stop corresponding to the house stop 35 on the house floor 10 is missing. Therefore, under the spring force, a torque is exerted against the frame back 23 when, with its top edge 38 abutting against the stop 35. Thus, the housing stop 35 forms a pivot joint for the frame 2.

Det over for dette drejeled virksomme drejningsmo- 15 ment svinger rammen 2 til den beskrevne skråstilling, men først efter afslutningen af fremskydningsbevægelsen, dvs. efter at den forreste knast er trådt ud af husets indgang 11. For at den del af rammen, som forbliver i huset i åben 2Q stilling, skal kunne svinge, må den have en egnet udformning. En sådan tilvejebringes her ved hjælp af affasede kantafsnit 36 og 37 af rammesidedelene 21 og 22's overkanter. De affasede kantafsnit 36 og 37 begynder i højde • med den forreste knast 27 og forløber retliniet stigende indtil overkanten 38 af rammebagsiden 23. I åben stilling ligger kantafsnittene 36 og 37 an mod den øvre husfladside 9, hvorfor deres hældningsvinkel svarer til rammen 2's svingningsvinkel. Denne svingningsvinkel har en sådan størrelse, at den bageste knast 28 i husets indre i åben 30 stilling frigiver viklekernehullet 13. Med dette for øje er den bageste knast 28 anbragt på en trekantformet udligger 40, som fra den bageste rammeside 23's overkant 38 strækker sig nedad under samme hældningsvinkel som kantafsnittene 36 og 37. I lukkestilling trykker udliggeren 35 40 fjedrende mod kassetten 4 og bevirker på fordelagtig måde et mod rystelser sikret anlæg af kassetten 4 mod husets bund 10. Udliggeren 40 er endvidere forsynet med en 9 148045The torque acting against this rotary joint pivots the frame 2 to the inclined position described, but only after the completion of the advance movement, ie. after the front cam is pulled out of the housing entrance 11. In order for the part of the frame which remains in the housing in the open 2Q position to swing, it must have a suitable design. Such is provided here by means of beveled edge sections 36 and 37 of the top edges of the frame side portions 21 and 22. The beveled edge sections 36 and 37 begin in height with the leading cam 27 extending the straight line up to the top edge 38 of the frame back 23. In open position, the edge sections 36 and 37 abut the upper housing surface 9, so their angle of inclination corresponds to the angle of rotation of the frame 2. This pivot angle is such that the rear cam 28 in the interior of the housing in the open 30 position releases the winding core hole 13. For this purpose, the rear cam 28 is mounted on a triangular projection 40 which extends downwardly from the upper 38 of the rear frame side 23 at the same angle of inclination as the edge sections 36 and 37. In the closing position, the boom 35 40 resiliently presses against the cassette 4 and advantageously causes a shake-resistant abutment of the cassette 4 against the bottom of the housing 10. The boom 40 is further provided with a 9408045.

OISLAND

foran rammebagsiden 23 anbragt udsparing 41, gennem hvilken husets anslag 35 rager ud under fremskydningsbevægelsen.positioned in front of the frame back 23 is recess 41, through which the stop 35 of the housing protrudes during the advance movement.

Den forreste knast 27 er anbragt på en i tværretningen mellem rammen 2's overkanter forløbende bøjle 43.The front cam 27 is arranged on a hanger 43 extending transversely between the upper edges of the frame 2.

5 Rammen 2, som udfører den beskrevne svingningsbe vægelse, og anordningerne til at fjerne den bageste knast 28 fra viklekernehullet 13 kræver praktisk talt ingen plads i huset 1, hvorfor de omtalte standarddimensioner for beholderen kan overholdes. Det skal endvidere nævnes, at 10 kassetten 4 ikke, f.eks. på grund af sin inerti, slynges ud af huset 1. Så snart den langsgående fremskydning overgår til kippebevægelsen, afbremses rammen 2 og med den kassetten 4 til stilstand, og dette endnu før rammen 2 svinger ind i sin skråstilling og frigiver kassetten 4 15 i sideretningen. Det står dog brugeren frit at holde beholderen således med husindgangen 11 skråt nedefter, at kassetten 4 af sig selv glider ned i den åbne hånd. En sådan udtagning med én hånd er ofte ønskelig, f.eks. i biler. Rammekonstruktionen, som frigiver husets indgang 11, giver 20 endvidere mulighed for en særlig simpel anbringelse af kassetten 4. Kassetten 4 behøver kun i vilkårlig længdeorientering at stikkes ind i huset 1, og i tilslutning hertil skal rammen som et låg klappes ned over den udragende kassetteende og skydes ind. Både ved udtagningen og ved 25 anbringelsen bortfalder således den ved gængse indskydningsbeholdere nødvendige løften op fra, henholdsvis læggen ned på indskudsorganets bundplade af kassetten.5 The frame 2, which performs the oscillating movement described, and the devices for removing the rear cam 28 from the winding core hole 13, require virtually no space in the housing 1, and the above mentioned standard dimensions of the container can be observed. It should also be mentioned that the cassette 4 does not, e.g. due to its inertia, is thrown out of the housing 1. As soon as the longitudinal projection moves to the tilting movement, the frame 2 and with that cassette 4 is stopped and this even before the frame 2 swings into its inclined position and releases the cassette 4 15 in the lateral direction. . However, the user is free to hold the container so that the housing entrance 11 slopes downwards so that the cartridge 4 itself slides into the open hand. Such one-handed removal is often desirable, e.g. in cars. Furthermore, the frame structure which releases the entrance 11 of the housing 20 allows for a particularly simple arrangement of the cassette 4. The cassette 4 need only be inserted into the housing 1 in arbitrary length orientation, and in addition thereto the frame must be folded down over the protruding cassette end. and move in. Thus, both at the removal and at the placement, the lift required by conventional insertion containers is removed from, respectively, the lower down on the insert plate bottom plate of the cassette.

En yderligere fordel består i, at alle seks beholdervægge er plane på ydersiden og egnet til anbringelse 30 af en etikettering, så at béholderemballager med påførte oplysninger bliver overflødige.A further advantage is that all six container walls are planar on the outside and suitable for affixing a labeling so that container containers with applied information become superfluous.

Den foran beskrevne beholder er endvidere egnet til, at flere ens beholdere befæstes aftageligt til hinanden enten langs smalsiderne 6, 7 ved siden af hinanden 35 eller stablet oven på hinanden langs deres fladsider 9, 10. Som forbindelsesmiddel kommer f.eks. notforbindelser på 148045 10 o tale, der er tilvejebragt på beholdersiderne 6, 7, 9, 10.Furthermore, the container described above is suitable for several similar containers being removably fastened to each other either along the narrow sides 6, 7 next to each other 35 or stacked on top of one another along their flat sides 9, 10. As a connecting means, e.g. groove connections of speech provided on the container pages 6, 7, 9, 10.

I fig. 5 er antydet sådanne notformede, komplementære svale-halgeforbindelser 48, 49 på smalsiderne 6,7. Forbindes flere sådanne beholdere langs smalsiderne, danner deres Øvre 5 fladsider 9 tilsammen en plan flade, på hvilket der til betegnelse af et musikværk, der bruger flere kassetter, kan anbringes et fælles billede med tekst. Til notforbindelser-ne 48, 49 svarende, ikke viste noter kan også være tilvejebragt på fladsiderne 9, 10, således at flere beholdere kan 10 sammensættes til en stabel, i hvilken alle beholderindgangene II er anbragt over hinanden. Da beholderstabler i og for sig er kendt, er en nærmere beskrivelse eller tegningsmæs-sig gengivelse unødvendig. Det fremgår uden videre, at i en af de i det foranstående beskrevne beholdere opbygget 15 stabel er hver enkelt beholder tilgængelig for anbringelse eller udtagning af kassetter, og at kassetterne også uhindret kan udtages fra de nederste beholdere.In FIG. 5, such groove-shaped complementary dovetail connections 48, 49 are indicated on the narrow sides 6.7. If several such containers are joined along the narrow sides, their Upper 5 face 9 forms together a flat surface, on which, to designate a musical work using multiple cassettes, a common image with text may be affixed. Notes not shown to the groove connections 48, 49 may also be provided on the flat sides 9, 10, so that several containers 10 may be assembled into a stack in which all the container inputs II are arranged one above the other. Since container stacks are known per se, a detailed description or drawing reproduction is unnecessary. It is readily apparent that in one of the above-described containers constructed of 15 stacks, each container is available for insertion or removal of cartridges, and that the cartridges can also be unobstructed from the lower containers.

Opfindelsen er ikke begrænset til den foran beskrevne udførelsesform, men kan i mange henseender modi-20 ficeres. Husanslaget 35 kan f.eks. erstattes af en stift ved stedet 50 (fig. 5) i hussmalsiderne 6, 7. Holdeindretningen kan indeholde en trykknap og befinde sig i det indre af huset i stedet for ved husets indgang. Som fjeder kommer enhver egnet konstruktionsform og en vilkår-25 lig anbringelse mellem bagvæggene 8, 23 på tale. Beholderen ifølge udførelsesformen kan også hensigtsmæssigt modificeres på en sådan måde, at den muliggør optagelse af en båndkassette i alle fire tværformatorienteringer.The invention is not limited to the embodiment described above, but can be modified in many respects. The housing stop 35 can e.g. is replaced by a pin at site 50 (Fig. 5) in the house paint sides 6, 7. The holding device may contain a push button and be located in the interior of the housing rather than at the entrance of the housing. As a spring, any suitable structural form and arbitrary arrangement between the rear walls 8, 23 is discussed. The container according to the embodiment may also be suitably modified in such a way that it allows the recording of a tape cassette in all four cross-form orientations.

Selv om beholderen er beskrevet i forbindelse med musik-30 båndkassetter, er den ligeledes egnet for enhver art båndkassette, især når det drejer sig om indholdet af allerede standardiserede beholderstørrelser. Således kan beholderen ifølge udførelsesformen modificeres på en sådan måde, at den er egnet til opbevaring og udtagning af 35 videobåndkassetter, idet i så fald konstruktionsdelene til arretering af spolekernen kan udelades. Inden for op- 148045 11 o findelsesområdet falder endvidere efter tilsvarende modificering en anvendelse til båndkassetter med digitale informationsbærere.Although described in conjunction with music tape cassettes, it is also suitable for any type of tape cassette, especially when it comes to the contents of already standardized container sizes. Thus, the container according to the embodiment can be modified in such a way that it is suitable for storing and removing 35 videotape cassettes, in which case the structural parts for arresting the coil core can be omitted. Furthermore, within the scope of the invention, after corresponding modification, an application to tape cassettes with digital information carriers falls.
