    摘要: An alignment and latching apparatus for a drive mechanism for data tape mini-cartridges. The alignment and latching apparatus enables the drive to use a new mini-cartridge while retaining backward compatibility with older smaller mini-cartridges. The mini-cartridges have a plastic top cover and a rigid metal baseplate. For some embodiments, an alignment datum is defined by three reference points on the bottom of the mini-cartridge baseplate. In other embodiments, the alignment datum is split with two reference points on the top of the baseplate and one reference point on bottom of the baseplate. Alignment and latching forces are applied on both the plastic cover and onto the baseplate. In some embodiments, alignment force on the top cover is provided by flat springs. In alternative embodiments, alignment force on the top cover is provided by spring loaded rollers. Alignment force on the baseplate is provided by rollers or cam surfaces, pushing upward if a split datum is required and downward if a bottom surface datum is required.

    摘要: A transducer position sensing system, in a electromechanical drive, for determining transducer position. A sensor is mounted with a non-adjustable position and without absolute position accuracy, thereby lowering manufacturing costs. The position of the transducer at which the sensor switches states is accurately determined in a manufacturing test fixture and recorded in a permanent memory used by a drive controller. The drive controller can then accurately determine transducer position during subsequent initialization procedures.

    摘要: A pressure transducer (10) for measuring fluid pressure in a fluid path comprising a strain gauge circuit (37) of thick film piezoresistors formed on an alumina diaphragm (36) in a Wheatstone bridge configuration. Each resistance leg of the bridge typically includes a thick film measuring piezoresistor (R1A) to which selected thick film patch-in piezoresistors (R1B, R1C, R1D, R1E) are selectively connected to create a measuring resistance network (PN1). The measuring resistance network is adjusted to a predetermined resistance value to balance and optimize the electrical symmetry of the bridge. The pressure transducer (10) includes a mechanical stop member (46) located adjacent the alumina diaphragm (36) such that the fully deflected diaphragm contacts the stop thereby physically preventing the diaphragm from deflecting an amount that would cause the diaphragm to rupture.
