A disk cartridge capable of smoothly opening/closing a head opening without enlarging a second shutter. In a disk cartridge, a disc-shaped disk medium is rotatably housed in a disk housing portion of a case, and a head opening through which a head of a drive device accesses a recording face is formed in the bottom plate of the case. The head opening is closed when an end of a first shutter, which is rotatable coaxially with the disk medium and an end of a second shutter swingable around an axis different from that of the first shutter come into contact with each other. Each of the contact ends of the first and second shutters includes an arc portion having the axis of turn of the second shutter as a center.

A recording disk cartridge is provided which includes a plurality of flexible recording disk media stacked inside a cartridge case so as to rotate integrally. The cartridge case includes a lower plate for constructing a lower wall parallel to the plurality of recording disk media, a plurality of inner plates which are stacked and fixed on the lower plate and partition the plurality of recording disk media, and an upper plate which is stacked and fixed on the plurality of inner plates and constructs an upper wall of the cartridge case. An opening is formed in a part of a side wall constructed of the lower plate, the plurality of inner plates, and the upper plate. The recording disk cartridge further includes a lower rotor and an upper rotor supported on inner sides of the lower plate and the upper plate respectively so as to rotate, and a shutter plate having a height corresponding to a height of the stacked recording disk media. The shutter plate is engaged with the upper rotor and the lower rotor so as to open and close the opening.

A magnetic disk cartridge capable of being loaded into a disk drive comprises a housing, and a magnetic disk, which is accommodated for rotation within the housing. The housing is provided with an opening, which allows a magnetic head of the disk drive to access a surface of the magnetic disk, and a shutter for opening and closing the opening. The housing has an outer peripheral shape composed of a circular arc, which is formed along a contour of the magnetic disk, and two straight lines, which are circumscribed with the circular arc formed along the contour of the magnetic disk and are normal to each other.

A disk cartridge includes: a disk medium on one face of which a recording surface is formed and on the other face of which a non-recording surface is formed; a casing having a disk opening which allows removal of the disk medium, exposing the non-recording surface, and an opening which allows access to the recording surface, being opened and closed by a shutter member; and a disk holder which is rotatably provided in the casing, and which presses and holds the non-recording surface when the disk medium is in storage, and is separated from the non-recording surface when the disk medium is in operation and when taken out, the disk holder being configured such that it will not protrude over the top surface of the casing, when viewed from the side, except when the disk medium is to be taken out.

A shutter opening/closing member of a drive device, which slides a shutter and opens and closes a window portion, does not interfere with a recording/playback head. A shutter operation portion extends, in a sliding direction of the shutter, from a main body portion of the shutter which moves at a region of the window portion. When a disk cartridge is inserted into the drive device, a shutter opening/closing pin member of the drive device operates the shutter operation portion and makes the shutter slide. Both when the shutter has closed the window portion and when the shutter has opened the window portion, the shutter operation portion is positioned outside of the region of the window portion. Thus, the shutter opening/closing pin does not encroach on the region of the window portion, and does not interfere with the recording/playback head.

This invention is directed to obtaining a magnetic disc cartridge which is prevented from being inserted into a disc drive system for a smaller capacity magnetic disc cartridge before the magnetic head is brought into contact with the magnetic disc. A larger capacity magnetic disc (12) is contained for rotation in a casing (10). The casing (10) is provided with a first cutaway portion (15) at a front corner between the front edge and one side edge of the casing. The first cutaway portion (15) is common to that of a smaller capacity magnetic disc cartridge for preventing insertion of a smaller capacity magnetic disc cartridge in a wrong direction. A second cutaway portion (16) which is adapted to engage with an engagement member (55) of the smaller-disc drive system which is brought into engagement with the first cutaway portion (15) and is displaced is formed on said one side edge of the casing.

A magnetic disc cartridge includes a larger capacity magnetic disc with a center core fixed to its center. The magnetic disc is contained for rotation in a casing which is provided with a spindle hole through which a spindle of the disc drive system is inserted into the casing. The center core is provided with a collar portion on which the magnetic disc is fixed and an abutment surface which is parallel to the collar portion and is adapted to be held against a pedestal surface on the spindle of the disc drive system under magnetic attraction. A center hole is formed in the abutment surface substantially at the center thereof and a drive pin hole is formed in the abutment surface radially outwardly spaced from the center hole. An annular protrusion is formed on the inner surface of the casing so as to project toward the center core inside the collar portion to limit radial movement of the center core. A contact member is formed around the annular protrusion to project toward the center core so that the contact member is held away from the collar portion when the center core is rotated with the magnetic disc held horizontally and is brought into contact with the collar portion when the center core is rotated with the magnetic disc held inclined.

A magnetic disk cartridge has a cassette shell formed of a pair of cassette shell halves encasing a rotatable magnetic disk supported by a center core, the inner surface of at least one cassette shell half lying parallel to the magnetic disk is formed with a recess which reduces the wall thickness of a portion of the cassette shell half, the recess is formed with a step at its periphery and with a ring-shaped projection at a location corresponding to that of a flange portion of the center core, a sheet of elastic material having a liner attached to the surface thereof facing the magnetic disk is fixed on the cassette shell half to cover the recess with a peripheral portion thereof fastened to the step and a center portion thereof supported by the ring-shaped projection. The structure reduces the weight of the cassette shell and enhances its productivity and quality.

A magnetic tape cassette in which critical parts subject to wear are coated with a hard coating such as an ultraviolet-cured resin. Among other effects, the generation of rubbed-off powder is reduced, thereby reducing the amount of data drop-out. Also, the case of the cassette is protected from damage.
