    摘要: Provided are a magnetic tape cartridge, a magnetic tape drive, a memory, a magnetic tape, a magnetic tape system, and an operation method of a magnetic tape drive capable of suppressing off-track caused by deformation of a width of a magnetic tape with high accuracy. A magnetic tape cartridge includes a magnetic tape, and a storage medium in which information on the magnetic tape is stored. The magnetic tape has a recording surface. Data is recorded in the recording surface by a magnetic head in a state in which the magnetic tape is made to travel. The magnetic head is disposed at an inclined posture with respect to a width direction of the magnetic tape along the recording surface. Angle adjustment information obtained at a data recording timing which is a timing at which the data is recorded in the recording surface is stored in the storage medium. The angle adjustment information is information for adjusting an angle at which the magnetic head is inclined with respect to the width direction along the recording surface.

    摘要: The zenith adjustment mechanism eliminates the cumulative tolerances inherent in the components of mechanisms of the prior art. The zenith adjustment mechanism utilizes a single adjustment screw to align the magnetic head such that the face is in parallel alignment relative to the tape path, along the transverse direction.

    摘要: A slider support assembly (20) includes a support arm (2) extendible over a magnetic disk (8). A slider (4), including a data head (12), is mounted to the support arm. The slider is mounted so the slider can pivot in a radially oriented roll plane (18) about an effective roll axis (44). The effective roll axis is typically located centrally beneath the slider, preferably about half-way through the disk. By moving the effective roll axis from a position above the data surface, as found with conventional gimbal-type slider supports, to a point below the data surface, pivotal radial movements of the slider relative to the data surface due to flutter of the data surface are reduced or eliminated. This helps to prevent track misalignment between the data head and data track caused by flutter or other excursions of the disk while spinning.

    摘要: The system for gap positioning optimization in a tape drive takes advantage of the presence of a pair of read heads, located one on either side of the write head, to precisely determine the boundary between the inter-block gap and the data blocks adjoining the inter-block gap. In particular, the servo mechanisms in the tape drive note the location of the boundary between the present data block and the inter-block gap formed at the end of the present data block. When the tape is repositioned between data read/write operations, this servo information is used to identify this boundary to initiate the subsequently received data read/write operation. A predetermined amount of inter-block gap is provided at the end of the data block to ensure that subsequently received data is not written on top of the present data block or the overwriting of the next data record begins at the beginning of the data block. The system for gap positioning optimization in a tape drive activates the upstream read head during the tape acceleration process to sense the location of this boundary. The upstream read head senses the presence of a region devoid of data, indicating the inter-block gap, thereby confirming the location of the boundary with more precision than the servo data indication, and positively verifying before the write operation that the selected block is the one desired.

    摘要: An apparatus for recording and/or reproducing information on a magnetic tape (70) comprises a magnetic head (10) for recording and/or reproducing information on the tape. A guide (20) is situated near the magnetic head for positioning the magnetic head relative to a main surface (71) of the tape. An actuator (30) is connected to the magnetic head and the guide to move the magnetic head relative to the guide parallel to the normal to the head face (11). The apparatus further comprises control means for driving the actuator and detection means (51) to generate a signal in response to a frictional force between the head face (11) and said main surface (71) of the tape (70). The control means are adapted to drive the actuator (30) so as to cause a movement in the reverse direction (19) of the magnetic head (10) in response to reception of said signal.

    摘要: The relative height between two sets of magnetic head groups AT,BT shared for recording and reproduction and mounted on actuators 100A, 100B is adjusted at high accuracy, so that a track of a predetermined track width and track pitch can be formed. In a rotary head type magnetic recording/reproduction apparatus including two sets of magnetic head groups AT and BT of one or a plurality of magnetic heads displaceable in the track width direction by actuators 100A and 100B, a signal which becomes the reference for relative height adjustment of the heads is recorded by one of the magnetic head groups. Then, the magnetic tape is rewound, and the run of the magnetic tape is controlled by one of the magnetic head groups. Under this state, the relative height between the two sets of magnetic head groups is detected by the other magnetic head group, whereby the relative height of the two sets of magnetic head groups is adjusted according to that information.
