Abstract: The present magnetic tape cartridge having a data storage medium connected to an integral cleaning tape section is designed to accommodate the length of cleaning tape in a manner that is compatible with existing tape drive systems. In particular, the hub on the supply reel in the single reel magnetic tape cartridge is dimensioned to accept the length of cleaning tape such that the radial position of the End Of Tape hole in the magnetic tape media occurs in the same position as that of existing single reel magnetic tape cartridges that are not equipped with the length of cleaning tape appended to the magnetic tape media. This enables the cleaning tape equipped magnetic tape cartridge to be compatible with existing tape drive systems.

Abstract: The single reel tape cartridge with tape reel centering features provides mechanical positioning and centering of the tape reel with respect to the drive chuck of the tape drive when the tape cartridge is in any orientation. This constrains lateral movement of the tape reel to prevent the tape reel from contacting the interior surfaces of the tape cartridge housing. This is accomplished by seating the spring, that applies a bias force to press the tape reel against the drive chuck, in a spring sleeve that is formed in the center of the interior surface of the top section of the tape cartridge housing.

Abstract translation: 当带盒处于任何方位时，具有带盘定心特征的单卷带盒提供了磁带卷盘相对于带驱动器的驱动卡盘的机械定位和对中。 这限制了磁带卷轴的横向移动，以防止磁带卷盘与带盒壳体的内表面接触。 这是通过在形成在带盒壳体的顶部部分的内部表面的中心的弹簧套筒中安置弹簧来实现的，该弹簧施加偏置力以将带卷轴压靠在驱动卡盘上。
