Abstract: A tape cartridge holding a magnetic tape has an auxiliary storage medium that includes a storage section where recording-medium information such as the specifications of the magnetic tape and the numbers of recordings and reproductions on and from the magnetic tape and a transmitting/receiving section for inputting/outputting recording-medium information to/from a recording/reproducing device in a noncontact way, namely by radio. The storage section and transmitting/receiving sections are provided in such a way that the transmitting/receiving section faces outside through an opening provided in a side of the cartridge body. The side is a side except for the front side which is the forward side when the tape cartridge is loaded into the recording/reproducing device, and does not obstruct the loading of the magnetic tape. The auxiliary storage medium includes an antenna that constitutes the transmitting/receiving section. Through the antenna, electric power is supplied from the auxiliary recording/reproducing section of the recording/reproduction device in a noncontact way in which the recording-medium information and power are superposed and transmitted.

Abstract: A RECORDING MEDIUM DEVICE HAVING A CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY HOUSING A RECORDING MEDIUM CONFIGURED FOR RECORDING INFORMATION SIGNALS. THE RECORDING MEDIUM DEVICE INCLUDES THE CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY HOUSING THE MAGNETIC TAPE, A CONTACT TERMINAL ARRANGED FACING THE OUTSIDE OF THE CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY FOR FUNCTIONING AS AN ELECTRICAL CONTACT FOR A DRIVE UNIT AND A SHUTTER MEMBER ARRANGED ON THE CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY FOR OPENING AND CLOSING THE CONTACT TERMINAL. THE CONTACT TERMINAL FACES OUTWARDLY OF THE CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY VIA AN OPENING FORMED IN THE OUTER PERIPHERAL WALL OF THE CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY. WHEN NOT LOADED ON THE DRIVE UNIT, THE SHUTTER MEMBER IS HELD AT A POSITION OF CLOSING THE OPENING FORMED IN THE CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY. WHEN LOADED ON THE DRIVE UNIT, THE SHUTTER MEMBER IS MOVED BY A SHUTTER OPENING MECHANISM MOUNTED IN THE DRIVE UNIT TO A POSITION OF OPENING THE OPENING FOR FACING THE CONTACT TERMINAL TO OUTSIDE OF THE CARTRIDGE MAIN BODY. THE SHUTTER MEMBER IS PERPETUALLY BIASED BY A BIASING UNIT IN A DIRECTION OF CLOSING THE OPENING CONFIGURED FOR EXPOSING THE CONTACT TERMINAL TO OUTSIDE. SINCE THE CONTACT TERMINAL OF THE RECORDING MEDIUM DEVICE IS COVERED BY THE SHUTTER MEMBER AND HENCE IS SAFEGUARDED AGAINST DEPOSITION OF DUCT AND DIRT FOR POSITIVE PROTECTION.

Abstract: A tape cartridge housing a magnetic tape includes an auxiliary storage medium having a storage unit in which to store the recording medium information such as design parameters or the number of times of recording and/or reproduction of the magnetic tape, and a transmission/reception unit for effecting inputting/outputting of the recording medium information with the recording and/or reproducing apparatus. The auxiliary storage medium is mounted so that the transmission/reception unit is exposed to outside through an opening provided in a lateral surface of the main cartridge body unit not obstructing the loading of the magnetic tape, that is in a surface of the main cartridge body unit other than its front surface as an inserting end of the tape cartridge into the inside of the recording and/or reproducing apparatus. The auxiliary storage medium has an antenna constituting the transmission/reception unit for inputting/outputting the recording medium information with the recording and/or reproducing apparatus. It is through this antenna that the power is supplied from the auxiliary recording and/or reproducing unit provided on the recording and/or reproducing apparatus in accordance with a non-contact system transmitting the recording medium information and the power overlaid on the recording medium information.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To minimize a disk cartridge by prolonging/opening it from a nearly central part of a disk housing case in a radial direction outer side and tilting the direction that an opening window making a head part insertable is prolonged for a moving direction of a shutter member making the opening window opening/closing free.
SOLUTION: The opening window 14 communicating with a central hole 16 is provided on a lower half 13b of a disk cartridge 11. The direction R that the opening window 14 is prolonged is set by tilting by a prescribed angle for the moving direction X of a slide shutter 15. The slide shutter 15 is provided with a hole opening/closing part 15a and a window opening/closing part 15b covering the central hole 16 and the opening window 14. Thus, when the slide shutter 15 is opened, since the matter that the window opening/closing part 15b is projected from an outer periphery of a CD-R (disk like storage medium) on one side of the moving direction X is eliminated, three corners of left upper/ lower, right lower are removed, and the small-sized disk cartridge 11 is constituted.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To protect respective components from impact force caused by inserting a recording medium and to stabilize a loading operation and an ejecting operation. CONSTITUTION: This device is provided with a cartridge holder 21 into which a tape cartridge 2 is inserted and held, a holder movement operation mechanism 26 for operating the movement of the cartridge holder 21 between an inserting/ ejecting position and a loading position and a driving motor 25 for operating the drive of the holder movement operation mechanism 26. The holder movement operation mechanism 26 has a movable slide plate 35 at one side and a limiter plate 38 connected to the slide plate 35 via a limiter spring 37. When the tape cartridge 2 is inserted into the cartridge holder 21, energizing force is imparted by the limiter spring 37 to the tape cartridge 2 to absorb a load. When the tape cartridge 2 is pushed in toward the loading position, a driving gear 46 is rotated in the direction of loading operation of the tape cartridge 2. By this method, the driving gear, etc., are protected from an overload, thereby the device is stably operated.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To excellently reproduce a still by making a tape travel a little after the traveling of the tape is stopped, locking a reel on a supply side thereafter, returning the tape to a regular stop position and relaxing the tension of the tape. CONSTITUTION:When the stop position of the tape is decided, a system controller 20 makes a capstan driving circuit 22 output a pulse-like driving voltage, for example, to a capstan motor 23 for a very short time. Then, a capstan 9 is turned a little and the magnetic tape 2 is moved forward (in a proceeding direction at the time of reproducing). When it is moved as long as prescribed length, a reel brake is turned on and a supply reel 3 is locked. Then, by reversely rotating the capstan 9, the tape 2 is moved backward (in the proceeding direction at the time of rewinding). Thus, the tension of the tape is lowered and an accident that the tape is damaged hardly occurs even when the still is continuously reproduced for a long time under such a state.
