2.1.7 Safety tab and safety plug
For $ cassettes, a safety plug at the supply reel side and a hole of minimum depth of 10 mm from datum plane Z at the take-up reel side shall be provided as shown in figure 2.
For I cassettes, a safety plug shall be provided at the takeup reel side as shown in figure 15.
2.1.8 IdentIfIcatIon holes
Five identification holes (holes 2 to 6) shall be located as specified in figures 2 and 15.
There is no hole for hole 1 (tape type identification).
There shall be two typos of reel hub diameter:
hole 3 closed: cassette with small hub:
hole 3 open: cassette with large hub.
Hole 2, hole 4 and hole 5 shall be closed and hole 6 shall be open. Other combinations are reserved for future assignment.
2.1.9 Reel
Locations of the reels, ready for rotation, are shown in figures 4 and 17. Dimensions of the reels are shown in figures 6 and 19. Heights of the reels are shown in figures 7 and 20.
The reels shall be automatically unlocked when the cassette Is inserted into the video tape recorder and/or player unit and automatically locked when the cassette is ejected from it.
The reel shall be completely released when the cassette lid Is opened 23.5 mm minimum from datum plane Z.
The reels assembled in the cassette shall be pressed by the reel spring with a specified force under the conditions specified in figures 11 and 24. The reel spring shape is specified in figure 11 for S cassettes and in figure 24 for I cassettes, and the spring force shall be 1.5 N ± 0,5 N (153 gf ± 51 gf) for S cassettes and 3.5 N ± 0.5 N (357 gf ± 51 gf) for L cassettes when pressing on a reel 2,4 mm above datum plane Z as shown in figures 11 and 24.
The force (Fl, F2) required to pull the tape out from the reel shall not exceed 0.17 N (17 gf), as specified in figures 13a and 26a,
The torque required to wind the tape shall be less than 15 mN m (152 gf cm) fo $ cassettes and less than 30 mN m (305 gf cm) for I cassettes, as specrf led in figures 13b and 26b.
2.1.10 Protecting lid
