Publication number: 20040244020Abstract: A disk recording and reproducing device keeps a disk in a standby position spaced from the objective lens of an optical pickup to prevent the objective lens from contacting the surface of the disk even when the objective lens is moved within a movable range because the disk recording and reproducing device are subjected to vibrations, shocks, or the like. The disk recording and reproducing device has a slide plate slidable by a drive element through a rack. When the slide plate slides, the disk is pulled in a horizontal direction from a disk ejecting position and thereafter is lowered vertically and positioned in a disk writing/reading position in which information can be written on and read from the disk by an optical pickup. The slide plate has switch triggers, and a switch having contact pins detectable by the switch triggers is mounted on a chassis.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 18, 2004Publication date: December 2, 2004Applicant: SONY CORPORATIONInventors: Masato Yamaguchi, Nobuhiko Ando

Patent number: 6198589Abstract: Magnetic recording apparatus are provided for recording signals on a magnetic tape. A recording head records signals in successive tracks on the tape and a tape transport transports a magnetic tape past the recording head in a recording direction. In one embodiment, absolute track addresses are recorded in at least some of the tracks, the absolute track address of each track corresponding to a distance of the track from a start position of the magnetic tape. Recording is initiated from a track having a predetermined absolute track address corresponding to a predetermined distance from the start position. In a further embodiment, the tape transport transports the tape initially by a distance necessary to establish a stable running state, and thereafter transports the tape a further distance while recording reproduction control signals so that during reproduction a stable running state may be achieved. Thereafter, information to be output is recorded.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 1993Date of Patent: March 6, 2001Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Masaki Oguro, Masato Yamaguchi, Yoichirou Senshu
