Patent number: 5453974Abstract: There are provided an optical disk substrate formatted according to the zone formatted system, method for initialization thereof, and driving apparatus for initialization of the optical disk. The optical disk substrate is initialized while at least one track in the vicinity of the inner peripheral side and/or the outer peripheral side in the radial direction of the boundary between an optional zone and another zone situated on the outer peripheral side is left unused as a recording area. By virtue of this construction, at least one of the tracks having a high possibility of bringing about the pit shift or double transfer is left unused as a recording area. Accordingly, the information stored in a recording area can be read out without being influenced by the occurrence of the pit shift or double transfer, and thus it is possible to get rid of the occurrence of a burst error caused by such pit shift or double transfer.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 1993Date of Patent: September 26, 1995Assignee: Mitsui Petrochemical Industries, LimitedInventors: Takeshi Minoda, Shigeharu Fujii

Patent number: 5448547Abstract: Information recording discs comprise a disc substrate having a recording layer on one side thereof, one hub having an insertion portion to be inserted into a center hole of the disc substrate and a flange portion to cover the disc substrate in the vicinity of the center hole, at least an apex of the insertion portion being composed of a magnetic material, the hub being inserted into the center hole so that the flange portion is positioned on the recording layer side of the disc substrate, and an adhesive layer is provided between the flange portion and the disc substrate. By this construction, a portion of the hub which protrudes from the back surface of the disc substrate, facing toward the spindle of a turn table can be altered in dimension and/or the diameter of the protrusion portion of the hub can be made smaller than that of the center hole of the disc substrate.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 1993Date of Patent: September 5, 1995Assignee: Mitsui Petrochemical Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Takeshi Minoda, Masayoshi Kurisu
