Claims
- 1. An image record/playback apparatus comprising a photographing device and a playback device,
- the photographing device comprising:
- a housing;
- an optical lens system provided in the housing;
- an imaging element for converting an optical signal supplied through the optical lens section, into an electric signal;
- a record signal processing section for processing the electric signal;
- a magnetic tape for recording an output signal from the record signal processing section; and
- a recording mechanism section for driving the magnetic tape, the recording mechanism section including a tape reel around which the magnetic tape is wound, a record-side tape guide for guiding the magnetic tape, a rotary magnetic head device which the magnetic tape is to contact, and a drive motor for driving the rotary magnetic head device and the magnetic tape;
- the playback device being separate from the photographing device and comprising:
- a connecting section for holding the photographing device;
- a playback mechanism section to be dynamically connected to at least one of the recording mechanism section and the magnetic tape, the playback mechanism section including a playback-side tape guide which contacts at least the magnetic tape to guide the magnetic tape, when the photographing device is engaged with the connecting section; and
- a reproduced signal processing section for processing an output signal reproduced from the magnetic tape.
- 2. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the playback mechanism section has a brake device which abuts a rotary member rotating in synchronization with the tape reel or acts on a member abutting on the rotary member, to apply a lead torque to the tape reel, when the photographing device is engaged with the playback device.
- 3. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the playback mechanism section further includes a playback rotary magnetic head device and a loading mechanism for guiding the magnetic tape to, and placing the magnetic tape in contact with, the playback rotary magnetic head device.
- 4. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the playback mechanism section has a power transmission stopping device which acts on a transmission path for transmitting a driving power when the record mechanism section drives the magnetic tape, to stop power transmission between the recording mechanism section and the recording medium, when the photographing device is engaged with the connecting section.
- 5. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising at least one recording device.
- 6. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising a fixed erasing head.
- 7. An image record/playback apparatus comprising a photographing device and a playback device,
- the photographing device comprising:
- a housing;
- an optical lens system provided in the housing;
- an imaging element for converting an optical signal supplied through the optical lens section, into an electric signal;
- a record signal processing section for processing the electric signal;
- a magnetic tape for recording an output signal from the record signal processing section; and
- a recording mechanism section for driving the magnetic tape, the recording mechanism section including a tape reel around which the magnetic tape is wound, a record-side tape guide for guiding the magnetic tape, a rotary magnetic head device which the magnetic tape is to contact, and a drive motor for driving the rotary magnetic head device and the magnetic tape;
- the playback device being separate from the photographing device and comprising:
- a connecting section for holding the photographing device;
- a playback mechanism section to be dynamically connected to at least one of the recording mechanism section and the magnetic tape, the playback mechanism section including a reel drive mechanism which is engaged with at least the tape reel to drive the tape reel, when the photographing device is engaged with the connecting section; and
- a reproduced signal processing section for processing an output signal reproduced from the magnetic tape.
- 8. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 7, wherein the playback mechanism section has a power transmission stopping device which acts on a transmission path for transmitting a driving power when the record mechanism section drives the magnetic tape, to stop power transmission between the recording mechanism section and the recording medium, when the photographing device is engaged with the connecting section.
- 9. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 7, further comprising at least one recording device.
- 10. The image record/playback apparatus according to claim 7, further comprising a fixed erasing head.
