Abstract
Abstract A magnetic recording disk cartridge is provided with a liner on the inner surface thereof. The liner is formed of unwoven fabric of a textile blend of rayon and polyester, for instance, and is kept in contact with the recording surface of the recording disk under a light pressure to remove dust on the recording surface while the recording disk is rotated. At least a part of the inner part of the liner in contact with the inner part of the recording region of the recording disk is thicker than the outer part in contact with the outer part of the recording region.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
207 words
A magnetic recording disk cartridge comprising a casing having at least two opposed inner surfaces, a magnetic recording disk having recording regions thereon accommodated in the casing for rotation within said casing, a cleaning liner for cleaning said recording regions of said disk during rotation of said disk by relative motion between said recording regions and said liner, said cleaning liner being provided on at least one of the opposed inner surfaces of the casing to be in contact with the opposed recording region of the recording disk, said contact being such as to permit rotation of said disk within said casing, said cleaning liner characterized by having at least one thickened part which is formed in the radially inner portion of the liner in contact with the radially inner portion of the recording region of the recording disk, said thickened part being thicker than the radially outer portion of the liner in contact with the radially outer portion of the recording region so that the radially inner portion of said cleaning liner imparts a relatively greater contact pressure to the radially inner portion of the recording region than the radially outer portion of said cleaning liner imparts to the radially outer portion of the recording region.

A magnetic recording disk cartridge comprising a casing having at least two opposed inner surfaces, a magnetic recording disk having recording regions thereon accommodated in the casing for rotation within said casing, a cleaning liner for cleaning said recording regions of said disk during rotation of said disk by relative motion between said recording regions and said liner, said cleaning liner being provided on at least one of the opposed inner surfaces of the casing to be in contact with the opposed recording region of the recording disk, said contact being such as to permit rotation of said disk within said casing, said cleaning liner characterized by having at least one thickened part which is formed in the radially inner portion of the liner in contact with the radially inner portion of the recording region of the recording disk, said thickened part being thicker than the radially outer portion of the liner in contact with the radially outer portion of the recording region so that the radially inner portion of said cleaning liner imparts a relatively greater contact pressure to the radially inner portion of the recording region than the radially outer portion of said cleaning liner imparts to the radially outer portion of the recording region.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
61 words
A magnetic recording disk cartridge as defined in claim 1, in which said cleaning liner has an interior side opposing said inner surface of said casing and an exterior side in contact with said recording region of said recording disk, and in which said thickened part is formed by doubling the liner material on the interior side of the cleaning liner.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
67 words
A magnetic recording disk cartridge as defined in claim 1, in which said cleaning liner has an interior side opposing said inner surface of said casing and an exterior side in contact with said recording region of said recording disk, and in which said thickened part is formed by bonding a member to the part of the liner material on the interior side of the cleaning liner.
