Abstract: A disk cartridge including a recording disk medium of diameter 2 inches or less and a housing. The housing is made up of a frame and upper and lower metal shells. The frame has a plurality of recesses in the side walls thereof, and the side walls of the upper and lower shells are provided with a plurality of elastic engagement pieces respectively engageable with the recesses. The housing is assembled by engagement of the elastic engagement pieces with the recesses.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filtering apparatus including, inside a filtering tower (1), a filtering section (r), a liquid collecting section (7) and a liquid feeding section (e). The liquid feeding section (e) includes a diffuser (A) attached to an upwardly oriented orifice (5a) formed at a leading end of a liquid feeding pipe (5). The object is to provide an apparatus which allows use of the existing filtering tower without its enlargement and which allows uniform falling of the filtering liquid over the substantially entire top surface of the filter medium layer, thus making it readily possible to maintain the flatness of the top surface of the filter medium layer even when light-weight medium is employed, thereby to allow the filter medium layer as well as the entire filtering apparatus to achieve their desired filtering performance.

Abstract: A disk cartridge comprising a flat housing and a recording disk medium. The flat housing is constructed of upper and lower metal shells, and the recording disk medium is rotatably enclosed within the housing. The housing is assembled by mechanically linking the circumferential edge portions of the upper and lower shells together.

Abstract: A magnetic disk cartridge including a flexible magnetic disk, a hub, disk-holding protrusions, and an anti slip-out member. The hub has a disk-holding surface on which the central portion of the magnetic disk is held. The disk-holding protrusions are formed on the disk-holding surface of the hub, and are inserted through holes formed in the magnetic disk. The anti slip-out member is used to prevent the magnetic disk from slipping out from the disk-holding protrusions.

Abstract: A magnetic disk cartridge comprising a magnetic disk medium, a casing for rotatably housing the magnetic disk medium, and dust-removing liners fixed on the inner surfaces of the casing which face both sides of the magnetic disk medium. Each of the liners has an outer circumferential portion that is not fixed on the inner surface of the casing.

Abstract: A magnetic disk cartridge including a flexible magnetic disk, a hub, disk-holding protrusions, and an anti slip-out member. The hub has a disk-holding surface on which the central portion of the magnetic disk is held. The disk-holding protrusions are formed on the disk-holding surface of the hub, and are inserted through holes formed in the magnetic disk. The anti slip-out member is used to prevent the magnetic disk from slipping out from the disk-holding protrusions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a leader member attached to a recording tape to be contained in a recording tape cartridge. A pin is provided at each end of the leader member, and the pins are resiliently projectable by springs. The springs each absorb a load generated when the leader member is attached to or detached from a cartridge case. A receiving portion is provided independently from a connecting portion which connect to the leader member. In order to eliminate changes to a length of the connecting portion due to compression of the spring and to allow smooth connection of the leader member and the connection portion, the pin resiliently projects from the recess provided at an axial center of the receiving.

Abstract: The instant invention provides a recording tape cartridge in which there is no need for adjustment on the case side with respect to forces for holding and drawing-out a leader block. The tape cartridge comprises: a reel on which a recording tape is wound; a leader block attached to an end of the recording tape; a case for accommodating the reel; and a leader block receiving portion which is provided in the case and in which the leader block is received; wherein the leader block is elastically deformable and is capable of being held at the leader block receiving portion by an elastic restoring force of the leader block itself.

Abstract: A parallelepiped urging portion is fixed, via an adhesive, to a distal end surface of a first stopper of a top shell of a disk cartridge. In a state of locking by a locking member, the urging portion is pushed by a step portion of a closing side stopper, and elastic force accumulates at the urging portion. In this state, when the state of locking by the locking member is released, the urging portion is restored, an inner rotor is urged, via the closing side stopper, in the direction in which an opening opens, and the inner rotor is rotated in a direction of opening the opening.

Abstract: A disc cartridge includes: a disc medium; a case formed by an upper shell and a lower shell; a first aperture formed in the case; an inner rotor rotatably accommodated in the case and having a second aperture that has substantially the same size as the first aperture; a pair of shutter members supported between the inner rotor and the lower shell, being pivotable around their axes to open or close the first aperture and the second aperture; a guide hole formed in each of the shutter members; guide projections provided at the lower shell, the guide projections respectively passing through the guide holes and, along with rotation of the inner rotor, causing the shutter members to pivot around their axes to open or close; and recessed portions formed in the inner rotor to avoid contact with tips of the guide projections passing through the guide holes.
