A MAGNETIC RECORDING SYSTEM FOR RECORDING DATA ON A MAGNETIC MEDIA - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18048647 titled 'A MAGNETIC RECORDING SYSTEM FOR RECORDING DATA ON A MAGNETIC MEDIA

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a write transducer used for recording data on magnetic media. The write transducer includes two pole pieces that form a write gap with a varying length along a longitudinal axis.

  • The write transducer comprises a first pole piece and a second pole piece.
  • A write gap is formed between the first pole piece and the second pole piece.
  • The length of the write gap varies in the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis.

Potential Applications

This technology can be applied in:

  • Magnetic recording devices
  • Data storage systems

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Improving write transducers for better data recording
  • Enhancing the efficiency of magnetic media recording

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Higher data recording accuracy
  • Increased data storage capacity
  • Improved performance of magnetic recording devices

Potential Commercial Applications

This technology can be used in:

  • Hard disk drives
  • Magnetic tape storage systems

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art could be the development of write transducers with fixed length write gaps in magnetic recording devices.

Unanswered Questions

How does the varying length of the write gap affect data recording quality?

The varying length of the write gap may impact the data recording quality by influencing the magnetic field strength and alignment during the recording process.

What materials are used in the construction of the pole pieces in this write transducer?

The materials used in the construction of the pole pieces can affect the performance and durability of the write transducer, but this information is not provided in the abstract.


Original Abstract Submitted

In an approach to improve write transducers a write transducer for recording data on a magnetic media is disclosed. The write transducer comprises a first pole piece. The write transducer further comprises a second pole piece. The first pole piece and the second pole piece are arranged in such a way, that a write gap is formed between the first pole piece and the second pole piece. A longitudinal axis is defined between opposite ends of the write gap. A length of the write gap along the longitudinal axis varies in the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis.
