Abstract

SISTEMA DE DATOS OPTICOS O MAGNETO-OPTICOS, EN PARTICULAR UN SISTEMA DE ALMACENAMIENTO DE LECTURA/ESCRITURA PARA LEER Y ESCRIBIR DATOS OPTICAMENTE DETECTABLES EN UN MEDIO OPTICO O MAGNETO-OPTICO FLEXIBLE. EL SISTEMA COMPRENDE UNA CABEZA DE LECTURA/ESCRITURA OPTICA PARA PROPORCIONAR LUZ FOCALIZADA SOBRE EL MEDIO FLEXIBLE Y PARA RECIBIR LUZ REFLEJADA DEL MEDIO FLEXIBLE, Y UN ESTABILIZADOR DE MOVIMIENTO PRECISO SITUADO EN POSICION PROXIMA AL MEDIO FLEXIBLE, PARA ESTABILIZARLO EN UNA POSICION DESEADA, DE MANERA QUE LA CABEZA OPTICA NO TENGA QUE ACERCARSE O SEPARARSE SUSTANCIALMENTE DEL MEDIO CON EL FIN DE MANTENER LA LUZ FOCALIZADA SOBRE EL MEDIO.OPTICAL OR MAGNETO-OPTICAL DATA SYSTEM, IN PARTICULAR A READ / WRITE STORAGE SYSTEM FOR READING AND WRITING OPTICALLY DETECTABLE DATA ON A FLEXIBLE OPTICAL OR MAGNETO-OPTICAL MEDIA. THE SYSTEM INCLUDES AN OPTICAL READ / WRITE HEAD TO PROVIDE FOCUSED LIGHT ON THE FLEXIBLE MEDIUM AND TO RECEIVE LIGHT REFLECTED FROM THE FLEXIBLE MEDIUM, AND A PRECISE MOTION STABILIZER LOCATED IN A POSITION CLOSE TO THE MIDDLE POSITION, TO A POSITION CLOSE TO THE MIDDLE POSITION. THAT THE OPTICAL HEAD DOES NOT HAVE TO SUBSTANTIALLY CLOSE OR DEPART FROM THE MIDDLE IN ORDER TO KEEP THE LIGHT FOCUSED ON THE MIDDLE.
