摘要:
The invention relates to a method of replenishing and/or preparing water-displacing treating liquids or mixtures of these treating liquids and of water-absorbing liquids. Said liquids are contained in treating compartments and are used to remove water which adheres to the surface of objects immersed in the treating liquids. The objects may consist of, for example, glass, ceramic, nickel, copper, stainless steel or synthetic resin such as, for example, disc-shaped information carriers.

A method has been discovered for recovering data recorded on magnetic recording tape wherein adjacent layers have become adhered after long storage times, even at recommended storage conditions. The method comprises localized heating of the tape in an amount sufficient to break hydrogen (physical) bonding between the binder and the film backing. A continuous tension is applied to the tape, while withdrawing it from the spool to break residual adhesion. The spool is turned at a rate of speed sufficient to carry away heat so that the film does not reach the heat distortion temperature.

A magnetic record disk assembly includes a floppy disk located within a rigid case having integral case stiffeners, wiping force appliers and floppy disk stabilizers. Wipers made of fabric, cleaning material are located within the case and disk flexure creates frictional force between the wipers and the disk. Thus, the wipers clean contaminants from the disk during rotation thereof within the case. A simple, automatic, cam-actuated shutter covers a transducer access slot in the case. This shutter is restrained by a detent to prevent undesired movement. A modified form of shutter has a compression spring that facilitates assembly of the shutter. A write protect device is located within the case. This device includes a piece that is mounted to rotate through an arc of 180.degree. in a plane perpendicular to a side surface of the case for opening and closing a sensing aperture within the case.

Apparatus for use in cleaning the tape of a tape cassette comprises: a housing; an aperture defined by the housing whereby a tape cassette can be inserted into the housing; an opening defined by the housing through which a tape cleaning device can be inserted into the housing; drive means in the housing for causing the tape of a tape cassette inserted into the housing to be driven past the cleaning device in contact therewith to be cleaned; and electronic logic control circuitry in the housing for controlling the drive means in response to insertion of a cleaning device and a tape cassette.

In a tape cassette, particularly a video tape cassette, equalization of electrostatic charges between the two faces of the tape is effected by a connector element or connector elements electrically connecting at least one of two electrically conducting guide elements contacting the front of the tape and provided on the two sides, respectively, of the cassette with at least the associated one of two electrically conducting tape deflecting elements provided in the two respective front corners of the tape cassette. In this manner sticking of the tape to the deflecting elements due to electrostatic attraction therebetween and also the build-up of electrostatic charges along the tape path parallel to the front of the cassette housing due to the transporting of such charges from the deflecting elements as a result of the tape travel, are counteracted.

The frictional coefficient and triboelectric current that exist between the magnetic-head carrying slider and the surface of a magnetic disk when both are in sliding contact are reduced by an appropriate pre-conditioning. The pre-conditioning comprises running the head-disk assembly for at least several minutes at a low velocity of, e.g. 200 to 400 rpm, in a dry gas atmosphere. By this pre-conditioning the lifetime of lubricated head-disk assemblies is increased.

A protective jacket, in particular for recording media, preferably magnetic films, is provided with at least one stiffened region in the immediate vicinity of the read/write area, thus permitting more thorough cleaning of the recording medium and smoother running of the latter. Stiffened region(s) can be produced economically by printing on strips of ink.

The combination of an optical information recording and reproducing medium and a container for storing said optical information recording and reproducing medium, at least one of said optical information recording and reproducing medium and said container comprising a fungicide wherein said fungicide is in a layer selected from the group consisting of a layer comprising fine metal particles dispersed in a hydrophilic colloid dispersion medium; a layer comprising a metal or an alloy formed by a vacuum evaporation method or a sputtering method; and a layer comprising a coloring substance or consisting essentially of a polymeric substance. The invention also provides said medium when it contains a fungicide and a method for making the claimed combination and components thereof.

A video tape cassette includes a case or housing formed by upper and lower mating case sections of molded plastics material. A tape supply reel and a take-up reel are supported for rotation within the housing, and a prerecorded magnetic tape is wound onto the supply reel. The leading end portion of the tape extends around guide rollers along a predetermined path to the take-up reel, and a tape erasing element or magnet is supported within the housing to erase the prerecorded material from the tape as it is wound onto the take-up reel and thereby provide for only one time use of the prerecorded material.

Cleaning apparatus for a compact disc comprises a housing, a rotatable carrier disposed in the housing, a cleaning pad fastened to the carrier for contacting the surface of the compact disc, a drive wheel for driving the carrier to rotate the latter about an axis of rotation and concurrently to cause that axis of rotation to move along a predetermined path, and a constraint for constraining that path of movement to a curved path, whereby the carrier and its cleaning pad exhibit planetary movement of both rotation and revolution.
