  • Patent number: 7499390
    Abstract: The disc protection casing includes a disc protection casing body having a disc receiving space therein. A disc holder, insertable into the interior of the disc protection casing body, has an elastic member formed at one end of the same for supporting a disc. When the disc holder is inserted into the casing body, a shoulder on the elastic member contacts a guide member in the casing body and the elastic member releases a disc supported thereby.

  • Patent number: 7319648
    Abstract: The method for reproducing records for the optical recording medium detects and compensates for detrack, tilt and defocus, having advantages in that: (1) the magnitude and the direction of detrack, tilt and defocus can be detected from a difference signal (for example, a read channel 2 signal or a tracking error signal obtained by processing the read channel 2 signal) between optical reflecting signals detected at the header fields staggered on the basis of the tract center, and compensates for detrack, tilt and defocus, thereby preventing deterioration of data quality caused by detrack, tilt and defocus during a recording/reproducing operation and enabling the stable operation of the system; and (2) the focus servo is rapidly stabilized to enable real-time recording as well as the stable operation of the system.

  • Patent number: 6522622
    Abstract: A disc cartridge that can simultaneously adjust a plurality of functional holes indicating whether or not the disc cartridge for receiving a double-sided disc has an opened or closed experience, and a disc driving apparatus for sensing the open and close state of the functional holes. In the disc cartridge, a body is provided with at least one of opened or closed experience confirming hole indicating whether or not the cartridge has an opened or closed experience. An opening and closing member allows a confirmation of an opened or closed state with respect to each face of the disc by an opening or closing of any one of the opened or closed experience confirming holes. Accordingly, the opened or closed state of the plurality of opened or closed experience confirming holes corresponding to the double-sided disc can be simultaneously adjusted, so that a user's convenience can be improved.
