Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention involves preparing an empty cartridge case in which both ends of the leader tape are locked and wound around two tape hubs, and then looping the leader tape from this cartridge case. This invention relates to a magnetic tape assembly machine that pulls out a leader tape, cuts it in the middle, splices a predetermined length of magnetic tape between both cut ends of a leader tape, and winds it onto one tape hub.

An assembly machine of this basic form is disclosed, for example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No.
It is publicly known from, for example, Japanese Patent No.-153718. However, as shown in FIGS. 18 and 19, a large number of empty cartridge cases 2 are stacked vertically in a horizontal position and loaded into a magazine 120 fixed to the main body of the device. From then on, the magnetic tapes were placed in a vertical position and fed one by one to the magnetic tape loading position. Therefore, when the work of feeding the cartridge case 2 into the magazine 120 in a constant posture is done manually, it is troublesome, and when automated, the feeding mechanism becomes complicated.
In particular, the cartridge case 2 has a magazine 120.
If the magnetic tape MT is not supplied in a constant posture, it may become impossible to load the magnetic tape MT, or the magnetic tape may be wound onto the tape winding hub 4 which is opposite to the left and right when viewed from one side of the cartridge case 2. Such problems occurred frequently. Furthermore, the cartridge case 2 that has been loaded with magnetic tape is dropped downward, which requires time and effort to rearrange the collected cartridge cases in an orderly manner and repack them into returnable boxes, which is also troublesome. Ta.

This invention focuses on this fact, and prepares a magazine case that can store a large number of empty cartridge cases in parallel in a fixed posture, and uses this magazine case to load a large number of cartridge cases into the main body of the device at once. The first purpose is to facilitate loading by making it possible to do so and to prevent loading failures. A second object of the present invention is to make it possible to collect the processed cartridge cases by arranging them in an orderly manner in the magazine case.

The details will be explained below with reference to the drawings.

Fig. 1 shows an example of a magazine case 1 used in the assembly machine of the present invention.This is a rectangular box-shaped case with an open top and a long front and rear sides. Pitch vertical guide ribs 1c are protruded from left and right oppositely, and the lower ends of the left and right opposing guide ribs 1c and 1c are connected to each other by a beam 1d.
A beam 1e facing forward and backward is installed at the center of the left and right sides of these beams 1d. Ribs 1f, 1g, 1h, and 1i are formed on the upper edge of the magazine case 1, and ribs 1j, 1k, 1l, and 1m are formed on the lower edge of the magazine case 1 so as to protrude horizontally outward. In particular, the left upper and lower ribs 1f and 1j protrude more than the right upper and lower ribs 1g and 1k, and only the left upper rib 1f has a wider vertical width than the others. 1 has different left and right specifications in terms of external appearance. Furthermore, the outer surface _S1 of the front wall 1n of the magazine case 1 is made to be a rough surface (matte finish), and the outer surface _S2 of the rear wall 1o is finished to a mirror finish. I made it something different.

The proposed machine is intended for a Philips-type magnetic tape cartridge, and the cartridge case is made up of upper and lower split plastic cases 2a and 2b screwed together with tapping screws 3, and a pair of internal tape hubs 4 and 2b. 4, both ends of the leader tape RT are passed through a predetermined tape running path and connected in a locked manner. The empty cartridge case 2 before this magnetic tape MT is loaded is inserted from above between the guide ribs 1c and 1c adjacent to each other at the front and rear of the magazine case 1 in an upright position with the tape running surface facing upward. be done. In the example shown in the figure, it is expected that about 30 cartridge cases 2 will be loaded into one magazine case 1.

Figure 2 shows the overall outline of the assembly machine according to the present invention.A magazine case 1 containing a large number of empty cartridge cases 2 is inserted from the front and loaded into the top stage of the main body of the device. A first feeding device 5 is provided which turns the case 1 upside down so that the tape running surface of the internal cartridge case 2 faces downward, and then sequentially feeds each cartridge case 2 forward and downward one by one. ing. A second feeding device 6 is provided below the first feeding device 5, which sequentially feeds each cartridge case 2 that has been fed out in series along a linear falling path of a fixed distance to a magnetic tape loading position. The leader tape RT is pulled out in a loop from the opening window on the bottom surface of the cartridge case 2 which is positioned and set on the lower side of the second supply device 6, and the leader tape RT is cut in the middle, and then fed out from the magnetic tape roll 7. Connect both ends of magnetic tape MT with leader tape.
It has a magnetic tape loading device 8 that sequentially splices both cut ends of the RT and winds it around one tape hub 4. Further, below the magnetic tape loading device 8, there is an unloading device 9 that receives the processed cartridge case 2 that has been sent out downward after the magnetic tape loading process, rotates it 90 degrees in front of the main body of the device, and then sends it out downward. has. Further below, a large number of horizontally oriented cartridge cases 2, which have been rotated and carried out to a predetermined position, are supported side by side in parallel on the left and right, and are then grouped into an empty magazine case 1 that has been set in a horizontal position below. It is equipped with a treated cartridge case recovery device 10 for transferring.

Next, details of each device 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10 will be explained in order.

First supply device 5 This is shown in FIGS. 3 to 7. First, frame 1 is set up at a certain distance from the front and back.
Between 1 and 12, a pair of front and rear circular disks 15 and 16 connected by left and right stays 13 and 14 are connected to guide rollers 17 and 1 fixed to frames 11 and 12.
7, and is supported so as to rotate around the longitudinal axis indicated by the symbol x in FIG. The front frame 11 and the front disk 15 have an opening 1 for inserting and removing the magazine case 1 in the longitudinal direction.
8 and 19, and guide grooves 20 and 21 are formed at the lower ends of the inner surfaces of the left and right stays 13 and 14, in which the left and right lower ribs 1j and 1k of the inserted magazine case 1 are slidably engaged. These guide grooves 2
0 and 21 have different depths from each other, so that the magazine case 1 cannot be loaded in the reverse direction. Even so, there is a risk that the magazine case 1 may be forcibly pushed and loaded with the front and rear orientations reversed.
As mentioned above, the outer surfaces S ₁ and S ₂ of the magazine case 1 can be made rough and mirror-finished to make the magazine case 1 have a rough surface and a mirror surface.
This makes it possible to know the front and back directions of the seat, thereby preventing a double setting error from occurring.

Both disks 15 and 16 hold the magazine case 1 and turn upside down, and collectively discharge the cartridge case group in the magazine case downward. This action is performed by the magazine case reversing mechanism 22.

The reversing mechanism 22 is constructed as follows. First, a large-diameter ring-shaped passive gear 23 is fixed to the rear surface of the rear disk 16, and the rear frame 12 is equipped with a pinion gear 24 that meshes with the gear 23 and an electric motor 25 that drives the pinion gear in forward and reverse directions. A pin 26 for regulating the rotation angle is provided rearwardly protruding from the rear disk 16, and a circular arc-shaped long hole 27 into which the pin 26 engages is opened at a rotation phase angle of 180 degrees. Limit switches 29, 29 regulate the disk rotation limit by contacting the pin 26 with stoppers 28, 28 provided at both ends of the hole 27, and act on the pin 26 to prevent both rotation limits from being reached.
Based on the operation of these switches 29, 29, the stop and reverse start of the motor 25 are controlled. Then, magazine case support rods 30 and 30 are installed between the disks 15 and 16 to face the upper ends of the left and right side walls 1a and 1b of the inserted and set magazine case 1, and these support rods 30 and 3
0, it is assumed that the magazine case 1 which is upside down together with the disks 15 and 16 can be received and supported. Rib-shaped tongue pieces 31 are provided on the inner surfaces of the support rods 30, 30 in the same pitch as the parallel pitch of the cartridge case 2 inside the magazine case, and protrude from the front and back in a left-right and opposite manner. When the magazine case 1 is completely inserted and loaded to a predetermined position, the left and right tongues 31 are positioned directly above each cartridge 2, and when the magazine case 1 is reversed from this state, these tongues 31 close all the cartridge cases 2. Accept and support. However, disk 15.1
6 must only be performed when the magazine case 1 is fully and correctly inserted and set. Therefore, the rear frame 12 is provided with a limit switch 32 for detecting the position of the rear wall 1o of the magazine case 1. Also, rear frame 1
2 is equipped with a pusher 33 and an air cylinder 34 that drives it forward and backward, and the pusher 33 passes through the inside of the ring gear 23 and connects to the rear disk 1.
6, and by shifting the magazine case 1 forward by a certain amount with the pusher 33 after reversing the magazine case as described above, all the cartridge cases 2 in the magazine case can be moved forward. It is designed to detach from the supporting tongue piece 31 and fall downward at the same time.

The lower side of the reversing mechanism 22 having the above configuration receives and supports a group of cartridge cases ejected from the magazine case 1 in a parallel state, and then sequentially feeds the group of cartridge cases forward to the front end side. A cartridge case sequential feeding mechanism 35 is provided to feed the cartridges one by one further downward from the cartridge case 2.

The sequential feed mechanism 35 is constructed as follows.
First, in FIGS. 5 and 6, above the base frame 36 erected from the front and rear frames 11 and 12, there are a pair of left and right horizontal frames that receive and support a group of cartridge cases that fall and are released upside down. The supporting rods 37, 37 are fixed, and upper and lower wide feeding rods 39, 39 are installed at positions above the supporting rods 37, 37, which guide the fallen cartridge cases 2 from left and right by means of ribs 38, 38 in a parallel manner with a constant interval. Arrange. Each of the feed rods 39 is fixed to two left and right horizontal support shafts 40 that rotate and reciprocate in the front and rear directions. Cartridge case locking rods 42 having ribs 41 of the same pitch as the ribs 38 are located between the left and right feed rods 39 and the support rods 37. These locking rods 42, 42 are attached to the base frame 3.
Fixed slide guide shafts 43, 43 suspended horizontally on 6
A movable block 4 is slidable in the left and right directions along the axis and is biased toward the left and right center by a spring 45.
4 and 44, respectively. The movable block 44 is connected via a link 47 to a rotating arm 46 spline-connected to the middle of the support shaft 40, and is synchronously moved as the feed rod 39 swings left and right due to the rotation of the support shaft 40. The locking rod 42 moves linearly in the left-right direction opposite to that of the feed rod 39. In other words, when a group of cartridge cases is dropped and supplied from above,
The feed rod 39 and the locking rod 42 are in the solid line state in FIG.
8 and are received on the support rod 37 in a front and back parallel state. By shifting the support shaft 40 forward by a certain amount from this state, each feed rod 39
All of the cartridge cases 2 are sent forward while sliding on the support rod 37, and the cartridge case 2 at the forefront comes off the front end of the support rod 37 and falls onto the discharge guide 48 provided on the base frame 36.
During this time, the locking rod 42 is not shifted and the locking rod 42 is in the sixth position.
It is in the state shown by the solid line in the figure. Next, the support shaft 40 rotates to the forward shifted position, and the left and right feed rods 39 swing outward as shown by the imaginary lines in FIG. It comes off. At the same time, the left and right locking rods 42 are moved toward the left and right centers by the springs 45 of the movable block 44, as shown by imaginary lines in FIG. 6, and the ribs 41 are locked to each cartridge case 2. Next, when the support shaft 40 is shifted backward by a certain amount, each cartridge case 2 is moved to the locking rod 42.
The feed rod 39 fixed to the spindle 40 is maintained at that position by the ribs 41 so as not to fall down.
Only the body moves back in the open outward position. After that, the support shaft 40 rotates in the opposite direction, and the feed rod 3
9 moves inward and the locking rod 42 moves outward to their original positions, and the cartridge case 2 is again supported by the ribs 38 of the feed rod 39. By sequentially repeating the above operations, the progressive feeding mechanism 35 of the present invention sequentially feeds the cartridge case group forward one pitch at a time, and drops the cartridge cases one by one into the guide 48 starting from the frontmost cartridge case 2. There is.

The drive mechanism for shifting and rotating the support shaft 40 is as follows. That is, each support shaft 4
0 is supported by passing through the rear frame 12, and is biased to be shifted rearward by a compression spring 49. A cam follower 50 is pivotally supported at the rear end of each support shaft 40, and a cam 51 that acts on the cam follower 50 is fixed to a cam shaft 55 that is interlockingly connected to an electric motor 52 via bevel gears 53 and 54. Therefore, the forward shift of the support shaft 40 is performed against the compression spring 49, and the backward shift is performed by the elastic force of the spring 49. An arm 56 is spline-fitted to the support shaft 40, and the tip of the arm 56 is attached to a movable block 58 that slides up and down along a guide shaft 57 fixed on the base frame 36. Furthermore, the movable block 58 is connected to one end of an L-shaped link 62 which is oscillatedly driven by another cam 61 attached to the camshaft 55, so that the movable block 58 The supporting shafts 40 are rotated in synchronism with the swinging of the arm 56 as the arm 56 moves up and down.

Second supply device 6 This is shown in FIGS. 8 and 9. The guide 48 has a vertical length that accommodates one cartridge case 2, and furthermore, a guide 70 that can hold a plurality of (three in the illustrated example) cartridge cases 2 is arranged in series below the guide 48. There is. The upper guide 48 has a limit switch 7 that detects whether or not the cartridge case 2 is housed therein.
1 is attached. A braking roller 72 is provided at an intermediate position between the upper and lower sides of the lower guide 70 to abut against the falling cartridge case 2. Below this guide 70, there is a relay frame 73 that can receive, support and store one cartridge case 2 from below, and the front of the relay frame 73 is made of synthetic resin and is moved back and forth by an air cylinder 74. It is equipped with an extrusion tool 75. This extrusion tool 7
5 opens the lower end of the guide 70 when retreating, closes the lower end of the guide when moving forward, receives and supports the cartridge case 2 at the lower end of the guide on the flat upper surface of the pusher 75, and stores it in the relay frame first. Push the completed cartridge case 2 deep inside. The cartridge case 2 pushed deep inside is sent downward by the next guide 76. In addition, guide 7
A limit switch 77 for detecting whether or not the cartridge case 2 is pushed into the depths of the relay frame 73 is disposed at the lower end of the relay frame 73.

Magnetic tape loading device 8 This is basically the same as the device described in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 52-153718.
6, a means 130 for receiving and holding each cartridge case 2 that has been guided down along the guide 6 at a fixed position at the lower end of the guide, and a tape joining block 131 disposed diagonally below the cartridge case holding position P. , a slider 133 that moves along diagonal guide rods 132, 132, vacuum-adsorbs the leader tape RT in the cartridge case, pulls it out, and guides the middle part of the tape onto the splicing block 131; A cutter 134 provided above for cutting the tape and a magnetic tape
and means for guiding the MT from the magnetic tape roll 7 onto the splicing block. In other words, the internal leader tape RT is inserted into the slider 13 from the bottom surface of the cartridge case 2 held at the tape loading position P.
3, vacuum adsorb it, pull it out onto the splicing block 131 diagonally on the lower left, cut it with the cutter 134, and splice the tip of the magnetic tape MT pulled out from the magnetic tape winding body 7 to the cut end of the leader tape on the right side. After splicing with tape ST,
This magnetic tape MT is wound around the tape hub 4 on the right side, then the magnetic tape MT is cut, and the cut end of the wound magnetic tape portion and the cut end of the left leader tape are spliced together with a splicing tape ST.
Thereafter, the tape is wound onto the tape hub 4 on the right side again. Reference number 135 in the figure is a drive shaft that engages with the tape hub 4 on the right side and rotates it.

Note that it is necessary to cut the leader tape RT pulled out from the cartridge case 2 at the center, and to connect leader tapes RT of the same length to both ends of the magnetic tape MT in the product magnetic tape cartridge. However, the leader tape was removed from the bottom of the cartridge case 2 at a position on the right side in the figure.
Since the RT is pulled out, if the cartridge case 2 is set with the front and back reversed, a problem arises in that the lengths of the leader tapes RT connected to the left and right tape hubs 4 are different. Therefore, in this proposal,
As shown in FIG. 10, a proximity switch 78 is disposed at the cartridge case holding position P so as to face the exposed head 3a of the metal tapping screw 3 of the guided and supplied cartridge case 2,
With this, it is detected whether each cartridge case 2 is correctly set with the front and back facing up. Cartridge case 2 was accidentally stored with the front and back facing the wrong way when it was assembled into magazine case 1.
If there is, it will be detected here, and such a defective installation will be processed without the need for magnetic tape loading.
It was then released downward as described below. In addition, if the leader tape RT in the set cartridge case is short, if the leader tape RT is caught in the joint between the upper and lower divided cases 2a and 2b when they are screwed together with the tapping screw 3, or if the leader tape RT Even when the RT is jamming inside the cartridge case and cannot be reliably held by vacuum suction by the slider 133, it is treated as a defective product.

Processed cartridge case removal device 9 This is shown in FIGS. 11 to 13. The cartridge case 2, which has been loaded with a magnetic tape by the magnetic tape loading device 8, is ejected downward and is received and supported by a carrier 82 having integral left and right guides 80, 80 and a separate stopper 81. This carrier 82 is a motor 8 capable of forward and reverse rotation.
3 through gears 84 and 85, and reciprocates 90 degrees back and forth around the vertical axis indicated by Y in the figure. A stopper 81 located horizontally at the lower end of the guides 80 is swung about the same vertical axis Y by an air cylinder 86. Now assume that the aforementioned defective cartridge case 2 is released from above. At that time, the stopper 81 remains in the previously retracted position, and the defective cartridge case 2 passes through without being received by the carrier 82 and is guided to the defective product discharge chute 87. However, the processed cartridge case 2 is received and supported by the stopper 81, and after the carrier 82 rotates 90 degrees forward by the normal rotation of the motor 83, the stopper 81 opens by the extension of the cylinder 86. Here comes the cartridge case 2
is ejected downward from the carrier 82 in a sideways standing position. Thereafter, the carrier 82 is rotated by the reverse operation of the motor 83 and the shortening operation of the cylinder 86.
returns to the original receiving posture, and this is detected by the limit switch 88 and the motor 83 is stopped.
Thereafter, the same process is repeated in which the processed cartridge cases 2 are sequentially received, the feeding posture is changed by 90 degrees, and the cartridges are discharged downward.

Collection device 10 This is shown in FIGS. 14-17. A pair of left and right frames 90 and 91 are arranged below the unloading device 9, and an empty magazine case 1 is placed at a certain position below the frames 90 and 91 with guide blocks 92 and 92.
It is assumed that the device is pre-positioned and set in a fixed left-right horizontal orientation via the . Right side frame 91
Fixed guides 93, 93 for receiving and guiding the cartridge case 2 discharged by the carrier 82 of the unloading device 9 by turning 90 degrees are installed in the upper part of the carrier 82 in the front and rear.
It is assumed that the cartridge case 2 guided by the guides 93, 93 is received by a pair of front and rear support rods 95, 95 that swing through support shafts 94, 94. Above each of the support rods 95, feed rods 97, 97 having ribs 96 of a constant pitch are installed so as to be rotatable and movable left and right with a constant stroke, and further above the feed rods 97, ribs 98 of the same pitch as the ribs 96 are installed. The locking rods 99 and 99 are installed so that they can only rotate. When one cartridge case 2 is dropped and fed onto the support rod 95, the feed rod 97 is shifted to the left by a certain pitch while supporting the cartridge case 2 with the ribs 96, and then The feed rod 97 is rotated outward and the rib 9
6 is removed from the cartridge case 2, the upper locking rod 99 is rotated inward, and its rib 98
The cartridge case 2, which has been fed by one pitch, is locked in place. Next, the feed rod 97 is rotated outward and shifted back to the right at a constant pitch, and then the feed rod 97 is rotated inward and the locking rod 99 is rotated outward in the opposite directions. Both ribs 96・
The cartridge case 2 is changed by 98. With the above, one feeding operation is completed, and from then on, the cartridge case 2, which is continuously being dropped and supplied from above, is placed next to the previous one (on the right side in the figure) and fed out one pitch at a time to the left in the same manner. go. When the space between each rib 96 of the feed rod 97 is completely filled with the cartridge case 2, this is detected by the foot sensor 100. Based on the detection signal, the support shaft 94 of each support rod 95 rotates, and both support rods 95 swing and retreat outward, thereby causing all the cartridge cases 2 to fall and eject downward at the same time. The magazines are then stored and recovered in parallel on the left and right inside the empty magazine case 1 waiting below. At this time, a sponge-like cushioning material 101 is inserted and projected from the apparatus side into a slit formed on the bottom surface of the magazine case 1 to buffer the impact of the cartridge case 2 from falling.

However, the drive mechanism for the support rod 95, feed rod 97, and locking rod 99 is as follows. Both ends of both support rods 95 and 95 are front and rear frames 90 and 91
An operating arm 103 is fixed to the support shafts 94 supported between them via a pair of front and rear L-shaped support arms 102, and is fixed to the front ends of both support shafts 94.94.
103 is the air cylinder 1 attached to the front frame 90
04, and when the cylinder 104 is extended, the support rods 95 and 95 are in the cartridge case receiving position as shown in the figure, and when the cylinder 104 is retracted, the support rods 95 and 95 are in the horizontal position as shown by the imaginary line in the figure. It is assumed that the robot is in an outward swinging and retreating position.
Both feed rods 97, 97 and locking rods 99, 99, which are supported through the front and rear frames 90, 91, are connected so as to rotate counterclockwise through the engagement of gears 105, 106 attached to their respective rear ends. The gears 105, 105 attached to the rods 97, 97 are interlocked with intermediate gears 109, 109, which mesh with the output shaft gear 108 of the motor 107, which is controlled in forward and reverse directions, respectively, so that both feed rods 97, 97 are moved in opposite directions. It shall be driven. Further, the rear ends of both feed rods 97 and 97 are connected to each other by a stay 110, and the middle of the stay 110 is connected via a link 113 to a drive arm 112 which is reciprocated and swung back and forth by a motor 111 that is controlled in forward and reverse directions. However, as the drive arm 112 swings back and forth, both the feed rods 97 can integrally slide back and forth, and this back and forth movement also causes each gear 105 to move forward and backward.
Each gear 105 is made wide to maintain occlusion with 09. Further, the amount of forward movement of each feed rod 97 is regulated by the contact between the stay 110 and the stopper 114. Further, the rearward swing limit of the drive arm 112 is detected by a limit switch 115, and the motor 111 is controlled to stop at this point.

As explained above, according to the magnetic tape assembly machine according to the invention, a large number of empty cartridge cases 2 are placed in a fixed posture in the magazine case 1 which also serves as a returnable box, and the cases 1 are then transferred to the main body of the apparatus. Since the cartridge case 2 can be loaded, replenishment of the cartridge case 2 into the main body of the apparatus can be carried out following the pre-processing process with great ease and while preventing loading errors as much as possible. Furthermore, since the processed cartridge cases 2 are taken out in magazine case units, there is no need to rearrange them or perform separate boxing work, and they are immediately collected into the magazine case 1 and sent all together to the next process. It can be expected to improve work efficiency.
