RECORDING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240253368 titled 'RECORDING APPARATUS
The patent application describes a recording apparatus with multiple rotating members and a floating detection portion.
- The apparatus includes a first, second, and third rotating member in sequence, along with a recording portion and a floating detection portion.
- The first rotating member is followed by the second rotating member, which is then followed by the third rotating member.
- The floating detection portion is designed to detect the position of the recording medium in relation to the rotating members.
- The height of the arc portions where the recording medium abuts the rotating members differs between the first and third rotating members.
Potential Applications: This technology could be used in various recording devices such as tape recorders, hard disk drives, or optical disc drives.
Problems Solved: The apparatus helps ensure proper alignment and contact between the recording medium and the rotating members, improving recording quality and reliability.
Benefits: Improved recording accuracy, reduced wear on the recording medium, and enhanced overall performance of recording devices.
Commercial Applications: This technology could be valuable in the development of high-quality recording equipment for professional audio or video production, data storage, and archival purposes.
Prior Art: Researchers interested in this technology may want to explore patents related to rotating member systems in recording devices, as well as floating detection mechanisms in similar applications.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about advancements in rotating member technology, floating detection systems, and recording apparatus design to enhance the performance of recording devices.
Questions about the Recording Apparatus: 1. How does the floating detection portion contribute to the overall functionality of the recording apparatus?
The floating detection portion helps maintain proper alignment between the recording medium and the rotating members, ensuring accurate recording.
2. What are the potential implications of the different arc heights on the performance of the recording apparatus?
The varying arc heights impact the contact between the recording medium and the rotating members, influencing recording quality and device reliability.
Original Abstract Submitted
a recording apparatus includes: a first rotating member, a second rotating member that is adjacent to and downstream of the first rotating member, a third rotating member positioned downstream of the second rotating member, a recording portion, and a floating detection portion. as viewed along a rotation axis line direction of the first rotating member, letting a first arc portion be an abutment portion between the recording medium and the first rotating member, and letting a third arc portion be an abutment portion between the recording medium and the third rotating member, a third arc height, which is a distance from a chord of the third arc portion to an apex of the third arc portion, is smaller than a first arc height, which is a distance from a chord of the first arc portion to an apex of the first arc portion.
