  • Patent number: 7436445
    Abstract: An image pickup and display device including a body having an image pickup lens, a display unit capable of displaying an image and having a longitudinal side extending along a longitudinal side of the body in a folded state where the display unit is in close proximity to or abuts against the body, a first rotation shaft having an axis extending along a surface of the body, a rotation-supporting mount rotatably attached to the body through the first rotation shaft, and a second rotation shaft extending perpendicular to the first rotation shaft through the rotation-supporting mount and rotatably supporting the display unit with respect to the rotation-supporting mount. The second rotation shaft extends along a side of the display unit and a side of the body when the display unit is folded. With this, even when the body is in a stable horizontal position, the display unit can be viewed excellently by being rotated around the second rotation shaft.

  • Patent number: 6590778
    Abstract: A memory card includes a memory card main body having a cut-out portion formed therein; a semiconductor memory in which data is at least writable; a terminal provided on the memory card main body for electrically connecting the semiconductor memory and an external apparatus; and a writing permitting/prohibiting setting member slidably engaged with the cut-out portion for setting data write to the semiconductor memory to be permitted or prohibited. The writing permitting/prohibiting setting member includes a main body for covering a portion of the cut-out portion. The writing permitting/prohibiting setting member slides along the cut-out portion so as to set data write to the semiconductor memory to be permitted or prohibited.

  • Patent number: 6141186
    Abstract: A cassette adaptor is disclosed, in which a head cover for accommodating the magnetic head is elastically supported on the head spring in such a manner that the height of the recording head and the head gap on the signal transmission side can be automatically adjusted in accordance with the tape running position of the reproduction head of a cassette tape reproduction apparatus and in such a manner that the reels can be positively prevented from being driven under no load. The head cover includes a head guide in contact with a reproduction head and at least a dummy tape member in mesh with the tape guide of the cassette tape reproduction apparatus with the cassette adaptor mounted thereon. The head cover thus guides the magnetic head to a position opposed to the reproduction head.

  • Patent number: 6137655
    Abstract: A cassette adaptor is disclosed, in which a head holder unit comprises a head holder for holding a magnetic head and a dummy tape frame having dummy tape members, and pins of the dummy tape frame are inserted into holes of the head holder thereby to fasten each other. When a cassette holder is inserted into the cassette tape reproduction apparatus, a tape guide of the cassette tape reproduction apparatus and the dummy tape members engage with each other, and the magnetic head moves to a position in opposed relationship with the reproduction head of the cassette tape reproduction apparatus in response to this engagement.

  • Patent number: 6028832
    Abstract: A recording medium loading apparatus has a recording/reproducing mechanism fixedly arranged in a horizontal posture, a lid body disposed in a generally vertical posture in front of a main body, and a guide mechanism for positioning the tray, in association with the opening/closure of the lid body, just above the lid body to load the recording medium when the lid is in the open state and at a position where the recording medium is mounted on the recording/reproducing mechanism to be played when the lid is in the closed state, thereby achieving inexpensive, compact and high-quality operating with high reliability without using a motor.
