Abstract: An accommodating case from which a user can easily detach a recording medium is provided. An accommodating case includes an inner surface thereof with a medium disposition area that is an area to dispose the recording medium. In addition, the accommodating case includes an engagement plate portion for engaging with edges of the recording medium so that the recording medium disposed in the medium disposition area is prevented from separating from the inner surface thereof. Furthermore, the accommodating case includes a movable plate portion defining a part of the inner surface thereof. The movable plate portion is movable relative the other portion of the inner surface of the accommodating case to be recessed toward the outside of the accommodating case. The movable plate portion is located over the medium disposition area and an outside area of the medium disposition area.

Abstract: A control apparatus is placed in a drive circuit of a motor of an electrically driven antenna. The drive circuit is provided in parallel with a transmitter-receiver circuit of a transmitter-receiver, and an operation unit is provided so that control instruction can be given by manual operation to a control apparatus. The electrically driven antenna is extended or contracted by an amount determined by the instruction that is given from an operation unit interlocked with a turn-on or off of the power source of a transmitter-receiver. The control apparatus includes, for example, switch plates which are moved by a small motor. Variable contact pieces for the switch plates are adjusted by a manual operation unit to obtain a suitable control instruction through mechanical operation. Alternatively, the control apparatus can be operated electrically by using a control circuit and operation unit.

Abstract: An antenna has a plurality of rod-shaped cores aligned in an end-to-end relationship and an antenna coil wound on the core array throughout its entire length. This arrangement permits the antenna to bend and fit any curved surface of a car where the antenna is mounted.

Abstract: A broadcasting wave reception antenna have a magnetic core having multiple radial projections extending on a common plane, and respective projections are provided with coils wound on them.

Abstract: An antenna system is provided with a plurality of telescoped antenna sections which are extended and contracted by an operating wire connected to the uppermost antenna section. The wire is made of a relatively rigid material and has a width of 1.5.about.2.2 times its thickness. There is also provided a clutch for selectively operating the antenna by a motor or the human hand.
