摘要:
A cartridge for an information recording medium includes a cartridge case, an opening cover, detachably mounted to a rear side opening of the cartridge case, for enabling the information recording medium to be withdrawn or inserted with respect to the cartridge case, and a holding unit for preventing movement of the information recording medium by supporting the information recording medium when the information recording medium is received and/or withdrawn into/from the cartridge case. The holding unit includes a pair of elastic pressure parts, elastically formed on the opening cover, for elastically supporting the information recording medium to prevent movement of the information recording medium when the opening cover is not attached to the cartridge case, and a release unit for releasing the pair of elastic pressure parts when the opening cover is attached to the cartridge case so that the information recording medium is rotatable in the cartridge case.

A hub-mounted optical disk to eliminate the need for a separate stack ring while decreasing the overall height, a method of fabricating the optical disk, and an injection molding die for manufacturing an optical disk substrate. The hub-mounted optical disk includes a substrate having a hollow and an indented portion engraved to a predetermined depth on the inside of a non-recording surface where no information is recorded; and a hub including a plate that has a fitting hole therein and is engaged into the hollow and the indented portion and a central ring that is inserted into the fitting hole. The method of fabricating the hub-mounted optical disk includes mounting the hub onto a magnetic chuck, applying an ultra-violet (UV) hardening resin on the indented portion of the substrate, operating the magnetic chuck so that the plate is in contact with the indented portion, and curing the UV hardening resin by irradiating it with UV light. The injection molding die for manufacturing the optical disk substrate includes a stationary plate having an injection nozzle that allows resin forming the substrate to be injected, a stamper that has a predetermined information recording pattern, and a moving plate having a projecting portion at the center.

A disk cartridge including a lower case member in which a space portion to receive an optical disk is formed; an upper case member, joined to the lower case member, an opening portion to allow a reading/recording device to obtain access to the optical disk; a multi-shutter member, including shutters, installed at the lower case member to be able to slide, and to allow the opening portion to be exposed to the outside when the multiple-shutter member is moved in a direction of the insertion direction of the disk cartridge into a disk drive, such that the shutters overlap each other; and a locking member, installed at the lower case member, to fix the multiple-shutter member to the lower case member so that the multiple-shutter member cannot move arbitrarily.

A disk cartridge includes a case accommodating a disk and having a first hole, a cover installed at the case and having a second hole open to an outside of the cover, a shutter installed to be capable of moving with respect to the case disposed under the disk to open/shut the first hole formed on the case, and a plurality of protruding portions provided at the shutter to support a non information area provided at an outer circumferential side of the disk and having inclined surfaces inclined at a predetermined angle. When the shutter is opened, the disk descends along the inclined surfaces. When the shutter is shut, the disk ascends along the inclined surfaces to closely contact a portion of the cover disposed around the second hole of the cover. Thus, since the shutter contacts only a non-information area of the disk, an information area of the disk can be safely kept from being damaged during an operation of opening/shutting the first hole. Also, since an edge portion of the outer circumferential side of the disk closely contacts a sealing member disposed around the second hole of the cover in a state that the shutter is shut, a gap through which dust can intrude is blocked, so that contamination of the recording surface can be reduced.

A disk cartridge has a reflection portion to identify a kind of a disk in the disk cartridge. A disk drive apparatus has an optical detector to identify the kind of the disk by irradiating a beam to the reflection portion and detecting the reflected beam. The disk cartridge and the disk drive apparatus provide identification marks for identifying the kind of the disk by varying the angle and amount of a beam reflected from the reflection portions on the disk cartridge. Therefore, the kind of a disk and the type of a disk format are identified as well as the storage capacity of the disk.

A high density disc having a data area which is set such that compatibility is secured in the same drive while maintaining a superior recording/reproducing feature, is disclosed.The high density disc has a center hole, a clamping area, a data area where user data is recorded, a lead in area located at the inner side of the data area, and a lead out area located at the outer side of the data area. In the high density disc in which the diameter of the center hole is 10 mm or more, the inner diameter of the clamping area is characteristically within a range of 20–26 mm. Also, the inner diameter of the data area is characteristically within a range of 35–40 mm.Therefore, while a conventional disc drive is still used, the size of the high density disc decreases and a recording capacity can be increased.

A disc cartridge includes a shutter unit having an outer shutter and inner shutters to open and shut apertures on the disc cartridge. The outer shutter opens one of the inner shutters corresponding to a side of the disc cartridge being accessed by a pickup. Accordingly, the overall area of the apertures exposed to the exterior during information recording and reproducing operations is reduced. Accordingly, dust is less likely to enter into the disc cartridge.

A disk cartridge which includes a case having an upper wall, a lower wall, and a sidewall, which form an inner receiving space in which a disk is inserted, an opening formed in at least one of the upper wall and lower wall of the case to allow a recording/reproducing unit of a disk drive to access the disk therethrough, and an inlet hole formed at the sidewall of the case to allow the disk to be inserted into and withdrawn from the case therethrough.
