摘要:
A hand held electronic scanning device that preferably has a front surface provided with abutments so that, when the front surface is laid on a supporting surface, operating buttons on the front surface will not contact the supporting surface and a transparent member covering a display window opening will also not contact the support surface to avoid scuffing thereof.
摘要:
A monitor assembly for a media autochanger having a media holder assembly which is rotatable with respect to a media autochanger support frame about a media holder rotation axis. The media holder assembly includes first and second media engaging members. The monitor assembly includes first indicia located on the first media engaging member, second indicia located on the second media engaging member and an indicia sensor mounted on the support frame. The monitor assembly determines the angular orientation of the media holder assembly and whether an adjacent media engaging member is in a linear registration position by analyzing the indicia sensor signal.
摘要:
A write-erase magnet assembly for a data storage device including: a permanent magnet having a longitudinal axis and having a first longitudinally extending face portion with a first polarity and a second longitudinally extending face portion with a second polarity opposite the first polarity for alternately producing write and erase magnetic bias fields on an adjacently positioned data storage medium; a magnet support assembly for rotatably supporting the permanent magnet; a magnetic detent fixedly positioned relative to the longitudinal axis of the permanent magnet for magnetically producing a biasing torque on the magnet tending to orient the closer of the first and second face portions of the permanent magnet in adjacent relationship with the detent. A coil for applying flipping torque and braking torque for an eddy current rotation dampening assembly are also disclosed.

A magneto-optic disk drive includes a magneto-optic disk and a rotary arm for positioning a focus/bias field switching assembly adjacent bit positions on the disk. A bias field switching assembly includes an annular permanent magnet mounted within a guide for movement between write and erase positions and an objective lens. The magnet has central and pole surfaces generally parallel to the disk. Coils on the guide are energized to drive the magnet between the write and erase positions. In its erase position the magnet impinges a first polarity erase magnetic field on the disk. In its write position the magnet impinges a second polarity write magnetic field upon the disk. The magnet is releasably latched in both its write and erase positions by ferro-magnetic elements mounted to the guide.
