Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of magnetic tape player technology, specifically a multifunctional magnetic tape playback device. Background Technology

[0002] Magnetic tape playback devices are a classic audio storage and playback medium. The core function of traditional magnetic tape playback devices is to read the analog magnetic recording signals on the magnetic tape through a magnetic head, convert them into electrical signals, and then amplify and process them to drive the speaker to reproduce sound. Its basic structure typically includes a casing, a main board carrying the circuitry, and a magnetic tape loading and running mechanism (including a magnetic head, feed reel, take-up reel, drive motor, etc.).

[0003] However, with technological advancements and rising user demands, traditional tape playback devices have become relatively limited in functionality, primarily confined to audio playback. Users lack intuitive, real-time visual feedback directly related to the tape's content or status. While some devices may have simple status indicators (such as play / stop lights or power lights), these indicators are extremely limited and cannot reflect the dynamic details of the tape's operation or the rich variations in the information it carries, thus failing to meet the growing needs of consumers. Utility Model Content

The magnetic head and the magnetoresistive sensor are both disposed above the magnetic tape's running track. The magnetoresistive sensor and the visualization module are electrically connected to the PCB motherboard. The magnetoresistive sensor is used to detect the dynamically changing magnetic field on the magnetic tape in real time and convert it into a recognizable signal, which is then sent to the PCB motherboard. The PCB motherboard sends corresponding control commands to the visualization module based on the recognized signal. The visualization module performs corresponding display operations according to the control commands from the PCB motherboard.

[0032] A multi-functional magnetic tape playback device, as shown in the reference. Figure 1-4The system includes a housing 100, a PCB mainboard 600, a visualization module 300, and a tape loading mechanism. Both the tape loading mechanism and the PCB mainboard 600 are installed within the housing 100. The tape loading mechanism includes a loading chamber 500 and a magnetic head 530 and a magnetoresistive sensor 540 disposed within the loading chamber 500. The magnetic head 530 and the magnetoresistive sensor 540 are both positioned above the tape's running track. The magnetoresistive sensor 540 and the visualization module 300 are electrically connected to the PCB mainboard 600. The magnetoresistive sensor 540 is used to detect the dynamically changing magnetic field on the tape in real time and convert it into a recognizable signal, which is then sent to the PCB mainboard 600. The PCB mainboard 600 processes the signal based on the detected magnetic field. The signal sends corresponding control commands to the visualization module 300. The visualization module 300 executes corresponding display operations according to the control commands from the PCB motherboard 600. The visualization module 300 is an OLED display screen or an RGB light group. A magnetoresistive sensor 540 is introduced and works in conjunction with the visualization module 300 through the PCB motherboard 600. The magnetoresistive sensor 540 can detect the dynamic changes in the magnetic field generated at different positions during tape movement in real time with high sensitivity. The PCB motherboard 600 processes these signals and drives the visualization module 300 to display. The visualization module 300 can display different content according to the changes in the magnetic field at different positions, enhancing the visual experience and immersion of the playback.

[0033] For example, RGB light groups change color, brightness, or flow patterns according to signal strength and frequency, and OLED displays show dynamic waveforms, abstract visual graphics, etc., without limitation.

[0034] In this embodiment, a speaker module 200 is provided on the outer casing 100. The speaker module 200 and the magnetic head 530 are electrically connected to the PCB motherboard 600. A tape supply reel 520 and a tape take-up reel 510 are also provided in the loading chamber 500. A drive module for driving the tape supply reel 520 and the tape take-up reel 510 to rotate is provided inside the outer casing 100.

[0035] In this embodiment, a signal amplifier is integrated on the PCB motherboard 600. The signal amplifier can amplify the signal strength of the magnetoresistive sensor 540 and the magnetic head 530 to improve the quality of the acquired signal. The signal amplifier can be correspondingly set in the circuit between the magnetoresistive sensor 540 and the PCB motherboard 600, and in the circuit between the magnetic head 530 and the PCB motherboard 600.

[0036] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 As shown, a battery compartment 120 is also provided inside the outer casing 100. The battery compartment 120 contains a battery pack (as shown in the figure) that is electrically connected to the PCB motherboard 600. The battery pack can provide power for the overall operation of the tape playback device. The outer casing 100 also has a charging interface for charging the battery pack.

[0037] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the front end of the outer casing 100 is also equipped with a power digital tube 400 electrically connected to the PCB motherboard 600. The power digital tube 400 is used to display the remaining power of the battery pack. The design of the power digital tube 400 that can directly display the power level on the tape playback device can clearly display the power level of the battery pack on the power digital tube 400, so that the user can clearly see the remaining power level, reminding the user to prepare to charge in advance, and providing a guarantee for subsequent use.

[0038] The specific display principle is as follows: the PCB motherboard 600 reads the voltage division of the current battery pack, then calculates and compares it through the AD conversion algorithm, finally obtains the power level, and then displays the corresponding power level on the power digital tube 400. The specific circuit and algorithm are existing and well-known technologies, and will not be elaborated here.

[0039] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a handle 700 is rotatably mounted on the top of the outer casing 100. Damping shafts 720 are provided at both ends of the bottom of the handle 700. The top of the outer casing 100 is recessed downward to form a receiving cavity 110 for accommodating the handle 700. Shaft holes adapted to the damping shafts 720 are provided at both ends of the receiving cavity 110. When it is necessary to carry the tape playback device, the handle 700 can be pulled out from above the receiving cavity 110 to carry it by hand. When not in use, it can be rotated and retracted into the receiving cavity 110, which is more aesthetically pleasing and also reduces the space occupied.

[0040] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the gripping end of the handle 700 is covered with a soft pad 710, which has anti-slip texture. On the one hand, the soft pad 710 can improve the comfort when holding the tape playback device, and on the other hand, it can also play a certain anti-slip role. The soft pad 710 is preferably made of silicone material. In other embodiments, the soft pad 710 can also be made of other soft materials, which is not limited here.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
