Embodiment Construction

[0037] The method and apparatus for assembling a magnetic tape cassette of the present invention will be described in detail below based on the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Incidentally, since the structure adopted by the cassette tape according to the embodiment of the present invention is similar to the above-mentioned conventional cassette tape 1, in the present embodiment, the reference numerals used for its parts are the same as Figure 13 The same reference numerals are used in , and their detailed descriptions are omitted here.

[0038] Such as figure 1 The illustrated cassette assembly apparatus 100 according to the present invention mainly includes a cassette assembly line 101 and a tape reel assembly line 102 .

[0039] The reel assembly line 102 includes an upper reel feed point 105 for feeding the upper reel 4 from within the parts container 103 onto the belt conveyor 104, and a lower reel feed / welding point 106 for feeding the lowe...

Abstract

In the method and apparatus for assembling a magnetic tape cartridge, a plurality of assembling stations, each of which includes an assembling robot 130 for assembling the respective parts of a magnetic tape cartridge 1, respectively comprise pallet delivery mechanism 135 capable of delivering sequentially a pallet 200 on which an upper cases 2a can be placed. The pallet 200 comprises front and rear reel brake hold mechanism 210, 220 respectively capable of holding front and rear reel brakes 50, 51 against the energizing forces of brake springs 12, 13 in such a manner that the front and rear reel brakes 50, 51 retreat from the installation area of the reel 3, lid spring hold mechanism 230 capable of holding the lid engaging portion 15a of a lid spring 15 in such a manner that the lid engaging portion 15a is not in engagement with a lid 30, reel hold mechanism 240 capable of holding a reel 3 on the upper case 2a side against the energizing force of a reel spring 8, and lower case hold mechanism 250 capable of holding a lower case 2b on the upper case 2a side. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain a magnetic tape cartridge having an excellent assembling accuracy with high productivity.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for assembling a magnetic tape cassette, and more particularly to an apparatus and method for assembling a magnetic tape cassette wherein the housing of the magnetic tape cassette contains only a single reel of wound magnetic tape. Background technique [0002] Typically, magnetic tape cassettes are used as recording media in external storage such as computers, and one known type of magnetic tape cassette has its tape wound around a single tape reel. This type of cassette tape is used for data storage such as computers or similar equipment, and since important information is stored inside the cassette tape, the cassette tape is manufactured in such a way that problems such as tape jamming can be prevented from occurring It also prevents the tape from being accidentally pulled out. [0003] here, Figure 13 is an exploded perspective view of the above-mentioned magnetic tape cassette, which is als...
