Patent number: 5954198Abstract: A cartridge receiving casing capable of permitting a cartridge to be readily removed from the casing by one hand as required while preventing the cartridge from accidentally falling off from the casing. The casing includes a casing body formed so as to be open on one side thereof to provide the casing with an opening through which a cartridge is inserted into and taken out of the casing and a cover slidably arranged on the casing body. The cartridge is engaged with first projections of stoppers at a received position, to thereby be elastically supported in the casing. When the cover is slid to an intermediate position toward the opening, the cartridge is partially exposed through the opening and elastically supported while being drawable out of the casing. Further sliding of the cover permits the cartridge to be removed from the casing.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 1998Date of Patent: September 21, 1999Assignee: TDK CorporationInventors: Masaru Ikebe, Masatoshi Okamura, Noboru Uemura, Hideshisa Hashimoto

Patent number: 5405008Abstract: In making a plastic case from a molten plastic material, a molten sheet of the material is passed through a nip of a pair of molding cylinders to form a sheet of desired thickness which in turn cut into blanks. A half tone indication is formed by using a cylinder having an indication-forming part which is comprised of a mat surface and a number of elongated projections having a glossy top surface. Half tone is obtained by this simple process.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1993Date of Patent: April 11, 1995Assignee: TDK CorporationInventors: Kimio Tanaka, Noboru Uemura, Koji Sasagawa

Patent number: 4850547Abstract: In a magnetic tape cassette comprising an upper half housing section with a see-through window, a lower half housing section, a pair of hubs on which a length of magnetic tape is wound and which are rotatably fitted in between the two half housing sections, and a stopper located between one edge of the tape wound on the hubs and the upper half housing section and having pawls engageable with given points of the hubs, the stopper has a flap portion slidable along the inner side of the see-through window and which is exposed when the pawls are engaged with the hubs. The stopper is slidable perpendicularly to the axes of rotation of the hubs. It is colored as classified by the grade, use, or type of the magnetic tape involved. Its exposed area visible through the see-through window is at a maximum when the stopper is engaged with the hubs.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 1987Date of Patent: July 25, 1989Assignee: TDK CorporationInventor: Noboru Uemura
