Drive Leader And Take-Up Reel For A Tape Drive

View page
US Patent:
6398143, Jun 4, 2002
Filed:
Sep 26, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/670857
Inventors:
Chan Kim - Holliston MA
Roy MacKinnon - Shrewsbury MA
George Saliba - Northboro MA
Assignee:
Quantum Corporation - Milpitas CA
International Classification:
G03B 158
US Classification:
2423324, 2423328, 2425321, 242582
Abstract:
A tape drive ( ) that includes a cartridge receiver ( ), a take-up reel ( ) and a drive leader ( ) is adapted for use with a cartridge ( ) that includes a cartridge leader ( ) having a cartridge buckle component ( ). The drive leader ( ) includes a drive buckle component ( ) that engages the cartridge buckle component ( ) to couple the drive leader ( ) to the cartridge leader ( ). The drive leader ( ) includes a leader connector ( ) having a connector aperture ( ). The take-up reel ( ) includes a hub ( ) that receives the drive leader ( ). Uniquely, the hub ( ) including a drive component channel ( ) that is sized and shaped to receive the drive buckle component ( ). Preferably, the hub ( ) also includes a cartridge component channel ( ) that is sized and shaped to receive the cartridge buckle component ( ) and a pair of member channels ( ) ( ) for receiving the leader connector ( ). With this design, the surface of the storage tape ( ) that is being wound around the take-up reel ( ) is substantially a uniform distance from an axis of rotation ( ) of the take-up reel ( ). This reduces the amount of wear of the storage tape ( ) and reduces speed variations caused by winding the tape ( ) onto an eccentric surface.

Stiffened Voice Coil For Reduction Of Tracking Errors In A Disk Drive

View page
US Patent:
7675714, Mar 9, 2010
Filed:
Mar 9, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/077295
Inventors:
Guven Yucesan - Shrewsbury MA, US
Larry E. Wittig - Lexington MA, US
Roy J. MacKinnon - Shrewsbury MA, US
Daniel J. Dorval - Hubbardston MA, US
Assignee:
Seagate Technology LLC - Scotts Valley CA
International Classification:
G11B 5/55
US Classification:
3602658
Abstract:
The present invention is a system for stiffening a voice coil of a magnetic disk drive. One embodiment of the present invention are stressed skins that interconnect with an upper portion and a lower portion of the voice coil such that they are flush with the upper and lower surfaces of the voice coil. The stressed skins are adhered or otherwise interconnected to the voice coil thus allowing for bending, twisting, torsional, and various other loads that generate vibrations that affect the head of an actuator assembly to be dampened. One embodiment of the present invention includes two stressed skins interconnected to a voice coil constructed of carbon composite wherein the space therebetween is filled with a foam to provide additional stiffness and damping.

Vibration Damper For Actuator Assembly

View page
US Patent:
8068309, Nov 29, 2011
Filed:
Aug 27, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/199009
Inventors:
Roy John MacKinnon - Shrewsbury MA, US
Larry Ernest Wittig - Lexington MA, US
Jonathan Scott Haynes - Petersham MA, US
Assignee:
Seagate Technology LLC - Cupertino CA
International Classification:
G11B 5/012
US Classification:
360 9701, 360264
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a vibration damper for an actuator assembly. One exemplary embodiment relates to an actuator assembly including a magnetic assembly configured to produce a magnetic field and an actuator movable relative to the magnetic assembly in response to the magnetic field, wherein the actuator includes a vibration damper which interacts with the magnetic field.

Thermal Pad And Column Stabilizer Assembly

View page
US Patent:
20190299125, Oct 3, 2019
Filed:
Mar 27, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/365869
Inventors:
- Milford MA, US
Zongren Shang - Westborough MA, US
Edwin H. Denecke - North Attleboro MA, US
Roy J. MacKinnon - Shrewsbury MA, US
International Classification:
B01D 15/16
G01N 30/30
B01D 15/20
Abstract:
A thermal pad for promoting heat transfer between a column heating module and a mobile phase of a liquid chromatography system includes is provided. The thermal pad includes a silicone layer, the silicone layer having a reinforcement stiffener for reduced stretching of the silicone layer, and a tacky surface on at least a first side of the silicone layer, and a heat resistant polyester resin film layer coupled to a second side of the silicone layer, wherein, in an operable configuration, the thermal pad covers a section of tubing carrying the mobile phase to effectuate a uniform heating of the mobile phase. Furthermore, a column stabilizer assembly and associated methods are also provided.
