FIG. 4 shows a control circuit of an information recording / reproducing apparatus having the card mounting table 2 configured as described above.
In the figure, a CPU 40 is provided with an access command from a host computer (not shown), and exchanges data with the CCD 19 and the ICC connector 9.

The position detecting circuit 41 is provided with a contact 1 of the ICC of the hybrid card 1 mounted on the card mounting table 2.
This is to detect that “a” is located directly below the ICC connection portion 17 corresponding to the ICC connector 9. The ICC connection unit driving circuit 42 controls driving of the motor 174 of the ICC connection unit 17. The VCM drive circuit 43 controls the drive of the voice coil motor 16 for shuttle drive. The optical head driving circuit 46 includes the optical head 18.
This controls the movement of the object. The focusing control circuit 44 controls the focusing by the optical head 18, and the tracking control circuit 45 controls the tracking by the optical head 18.

Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as described above will be described. First, the hybrid card 1 is inserted between the tray 11 and the upper metal 12 of the card mounting table 2 with the optical recording area 1b facing upward. In this state, the ICC contact 1a of the hybrid card 1 is positioned corresponding to the ICC connector 9 provided on the bottom surface 31 of the shuttle base 3, and the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1 is provided on the tray 11. CCD1
9 is located.

From this state, the access of the hybrid card 1 to the OMC will be described first. In this case, when an access command to the OMC of the hybrid card 1 is given from the host computer (not shown) to the CPU 40 by an I / F protocol such as SCSI, for example,
U40 interprets this and sends the drive command to the VCM.
A control signal is given to the VCM drive circuit 43 and the optical head drive circuit 46. Thus, the card mounting table 2 is reciprocated in the longitudinal direction of the hybrid card 1 by the shuttle driving voice coil motor 16, and the optical head 18 is moved by the hybrid card 1 orthogonal to the reciprocating direction a of the card mounting table 2. Is reciprocated in the width direction b, and recording / reproducing of information on an arbitrary track on the optical recording area 1b is executed. In this case, since the hybrid card 1 is placed on the tray 11 pushed upward by the pressing springs 7, 7, the hybrid card 1
Are separated from the ICC connector 9.

Next, access of the hybrid card 1 to the ICC will be described. In this case, the hybrid card 1 is sent from the host computer (not shown) to the CPU 40.
When an access command to the ICC is given, the CPU 40
Interprets this and uses the VC for ICC access.
The M control signal is supplied to the VCM drive circuit 43. Then, the card mounting table 2 becomes the voice coil motor 1 for driving the shuttle.
6 and the ICC of the hybrid card 1
The contact 1a and the ICC connector 9 are moved to a position directly below the ICC connection portion 17. In this case, the card mounting table 2
Is detected by a position detection circuit 41 provided on the shuttle base 3 and provided with an encoder output. When the position detection circuit 41 detects that the ICC contact 1a of the hybrid card 1 has come directly below the ICC connection section 17, a drive stop signal is sent from the CPU 40 to the VCM drive circuit 43, and the card mounting table 2 Stop the movement of the object and fix its position.

The hybrid card 1 in this state
Is placed on the tray 11 which is pushed up by the pressing spring 7, so that the ICC contact 1a
It is separated from the CC connector 9.

Next, the CPU 40 gives a drive signal for rotating the output shaft of the motor 174 of the ICC connection unit 17 at a predetermined number of rotations in the forward direction to the ICC connection unit drive circuit 42. Then, the disk portion 171 is rotated via the gear 175 by the forward rotation of the motor 174 of the ICC connection portion 17, and the rod-shaped screw portion 172 is moved downward with the rotation of the disk portion 171. Contact part 173 is IC
It is brought into contact with the surface of the hybrid card 1 corresponding to the contact 1a of C. Then, even after the contact portion 173 contacts the surface of the hybrid card 1, when the contact portion 173 is further moved downward, the tray 11 is pressed against the pressing force of the pressing spring 7 together with the hybrid card 1. Depressed,
When the tray 11 is pressed down, the ICC connector 9 is pressed.
Enters the through hole 113 of the tray 11 and is electrically connected to the contact 1a of the ICC.

From this state, the contact 1 of the ICC of the hybrid card 1 is
It is checked whether or not the ICC connector 9 is electrically connected normally to a. Then, recording / reproduction of information from / to the ICC of the hybrid card 1 is executed from the host computer. This state is shown in FIG.

Next, when releasing the electrical connection of the ICC connector 9 to the contact 1a of the ICC of the hybrid card 1, the CPU 40 sends the output shaft of the motor 174 of the ICC connection section 17 to the ICC connection section drive circuit 42. A drive signal for rotating in the opposite direction at a predetermined number of rotations is given. Then, this time, the contact portion 173 moves upward, and with this movement, the tray 11 returns to the original position by the pressing force of the pressing spring 7, and the contact 1 a of the ICC of the hybrid card 1. ICC against
The electrical connection of the connector 9 is released.

Next, access of the hybrid card 1 to the CICC will be described. In this case, a leakage magnetic flux is generated from a coil of the optical head 18 used for accessing the OMC of the hybrid card 1 or a leakage magnetic flux is generated from the shuttle driving voice coil motor 16 that reciprocates the card mounting table 2. In this case, the leakage magnetic flux is transmitted through the inductive coupling regions 192 and 193 of the CCD 19, and the CCD 19 and the CIC
Power and information transmission to and from the C coupling element 101 may be adversely affected.

Therefore, before executing access to the CICC, in order to avoid magnetic interference with the CCD 19,
The following operation is performed. In this case, the OMC of the hybrid card 1 accesses the CICC of the hybrid card 1 in a non-access state. In the flowchart shown in FIG. 6, first, in step 601, a host computer (not shown)
An instruction to access the CICC of the hybrid card 1 is given to the controller 40, and in step 602, the card mounting table 2 is moved to a predetermined position and stopped.

In this case, the moving position of the card table 2 is
The encoder output provided on the shuttle base 3 is detected by being counted by a position detection circuit 41, and the irradiation beam of the optical head 18 is positioned at the track end of the OMC optical recording area 1b of the hybrid card 1 by the position detection circuit 41. When the operation is detected, the movement of the card mounting table 2 is stopped.

Next, the optical head 18 accesses a predetermined track k in the optical recording area 1 of the OMC. in this case,
The track k to be accessed is the CCD 19 and the CICC coupling element 10 of the hybrid card 1.
If the current track position of the optical head 18 is O and the maximum track position is max at a position far from 1, for example, the track k is determined by k = (O + max) / 2.

As a result, the optical head 18 moves the optical recording area 1 of the OMC of the hybrid card 1 as shown in FIG.
It is stopped at a position away from the CCD 19 at the end b to a range where magnetic interference does not occur. In this case, the optical head 1
8 is stopped in a state where the beam is irradiated so as to be able to immediately respond to the access to the OMC.

Then, after the drive of the shuttle driving voice coil motor 16 for reciprocating the card mounting table 2 and the stop of the movement of the optical head 18 to a predetermined track are awaited, the flow proceeds to step 604 to the CICC of the hybrid card 1. Perform access.

In this case, when a host computer (not shown) instructs the CPU 40 to execute access to the CICC, the CPU 40 interprets the instruction and executes the CCC command.
The activation process is performed on the CICC module 191 of the CD 19. Then, the hybrid card 1 in this state is placed on the tray 11 which is pushed up by the pressing force of the pressing spring 7, so that the CCD 19 provided on the tray 11 and the CICC of the hybrid card 1
Since the coupling surfaces of the coupling element 101 are sufficiently adhered in the coupled state, that is, in this case, the inductive coupling regions 192 and 193 of the CCD 19 are
The coupling coils 1c and 1d of the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1
Since the inductive coupling area 194 of the CD 19 is in close contact with the electrostatic plate 1 e of the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1, the hybrid card 1 is activated by the CICC module 191.
Of the CICC is immediately activated.

After these activation treatments, CIC
When the host computer issues a command / information to the CICC of the hybrid card 1 from the host computer, the C module 191 converts the command into a predetermined protocol, transmits the protocol to the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1 from the CCD 19, and conversely, Hybrid card 1 CI
When a response / information is issued from the CC to the host computer, the response / information is received by the CCD 19 from the CICC coupling element 101 and transmitted to the CPU 40, thereby recording / recording information in the CICC of the hybrid card 1.
Playback is performed.

Therefore, in this way, when the hybrid card 1 accesses the CICC, the card mounting table 2 is moved by the shuttle driving voice coil motor 16 and the optical head 18 is accessed to a predetermined track. Since the optical head 18 is moved to a position where it does not cause magnetic interference with the CCD 19 and is stopped,
By simply moving the optical head 18, a situation where magnetic interference does not reach the CCD 19 can be easily created.
Since the drive of the motor 6 is also stopped, magnetic interference on the CCD 19 due to the leakage magnetic flux from the voice coil motor 16 for shuttle drive and the optical head 18 can be avoided. Thereby, the CCD 19 and the CIC of the hybrid card 1
It is possible to eliminate the adverse effect on the power and information transmission between the C coupling element 101 and information recording / reproduction by accessing the CICC of the hybrid card 1 can be performed stably.

Further, one side of the ICC contact 1a
Card mounting table for holding a hybrid card 1 having an OMC optical recording area 1b on the other surface and further having a CICC coupling element 101 therein, and reciprocating the hybrid card 1 in a linear direction 2, the CCD 19 for coupling with the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1 is provided. Therefore, only by holding the hybrid card 1 on the card mounting table 2, a predetermined function for the CICC of the hybrid card 1 is promptly achieved. Can be provided to provide access.

In the above description, the CCD 19 and the CICC module 191 are integrated, but the CCD 19 alone may be mounted on the card mounting table 2 and the CICC module 191 may be provided at a fixed position away from the card. Further, the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1 has a total of four coupling coils 1c and 1d, and the coupling with the CCD 19 is performed using only one of these coupling coils. You can do it too. In this case, the card mounting table 2 may be moved so that the corresponding coupling coil is far from the electromagnetic field, such as the coil of the optical head 18. (Second Embodiment) In the first embodiment, the optical head 18 is connected to the CCD 19 in order to avoid magnetic interference to the CCD 19 due to leakage magnetic flux from the shuttle driving voice coil motor 16 and the optical head 18. The optical head 18 is moved to a position that does not cause magnetic interference. However, in the second embodiment, the CCD located far from the optical head 18 is moved.
Only a part of 19 is used.

In this case, for the schematic configuration of the hybrid card 1 and the information recording / reproducing apparatus, the description of FIGS. In this state, before the hybrid card 1 accesses the CICC, the following operation is performed to avoid magnetic interference with the CCD 19.

In this case, the OMC of the hybrid card 1
Access to the CICC of the hybrid card 1 in the non-access or access state. In the flowchart shown in FIG. 8, first, in step 801, a host computer (not shown)
A command to access the CICC of the hybrid card 1 is given to the hybrid card 1, and in step 802, the current position of the optical head 18, that is, the OMC where the optical head 18 is located
The track address of the optical recording area 1b is detected.

In this case, if the OMC is accessing,
If the current track address where the optical head 18 is located is detected, and if the OMC is not accessing and has at least once accessed the track, the current track of the optical head 18 is determined from the track address history. The address is detected, and if it is in the initial state, the current track address of the optical head 18 is detected from a preset home position that moves when one hybrid card is set.

In step 803, one of the inductive coupling areas 192 and 193 of the CCD 19 that is farther from the optical head 18 is selected. In this case, as shown in FIG. 9, when the current track address TA1 of the optical head 18 is above the optical recording area 1b of the OMC, the CCD
When the inductive coupling area 193 located far from the optical head 18 is selected from the 19 inductive coupling areas 192 and 193, and the current track address TA2 of the optical head 18 is below the optical recording area 1b of the OMC, The inductive coupling area 192 located far from the optical head 18 is selected from the inductive coupling areas 192 and 193 of the CCD 19.

After the inductive coupling area 192 or 193 located far from the optical head 18 is selected according to the current track address of the optical head 18 in this way,
In step 804, access to the CICC of the hybrid card 1 is executed in the same manner as described above.

Accordingly, in this way, when the hybrid card 1 accesses the CICC, the optical head 1
8, the track address on the current optical recording area 1b is detected, and one of the inductive coupling areas 192 and 193 of the CCD 19 that is farther from the optical head 18 is selected according to the track address. It is possible to easily create a situation where magnetic interference does not reach the CCD 19 without any moving means, thereby avoiding magnetic interference to the CCD 19 due to magnetic flux leaking from the coil of the optical head 18 or the like. The power and the information transmission between the hybrid card 1 and the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1 can be prevented from being adversely affected, and information can be recorded / reproduced stably by accessing the hybrid card 1 to the CICC. (Third Embodiment) FIGS. 10 (a) and 10 (b) show a schematic configuration of a third embodiment of the present invention, and the same parts as those in FIGS. 2 and 3 are denoted by the same reference numerals. doing.

In this case, a CCD 19 is arranged on a surface of the optical head 18 corresponding to the card mounting table 2 as shown in FIG. By doing so, the optical head 18 and C
By arranging the CDs 19 on substantially the same plane, it is possible to minimize the influence of the leakage magnetic flux of the optical head 18 on the CCD 19, and to reduce the power and the power between the CCD 19 and the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1. It is possible to stably record / reproduce information by accessing the CICC of the hybrid card 1 without adversely affecting information transmission.

Further, by providing the CCD 19 on the surface of the optical head 18 corresponding to the card mounting table 2, the optical head 18 and the card mounting table 2 can be arbitrarily set based on the detection position of the prerecorded data or the like on the OMC. Since the relative positional relationship can be set, the CCD 101 that is the coupling area of the CICC of the hybrid card 1 may be shifted to a position different from the standard position due to adjustment of the card mounting table 2 of the hybrid card 1 or variation in manufacturing. In such a case, the position shift is corrected and the CCD 19 and the CICC coupling element 101 of the hybrid card 1 are corrected.
An optimum coupling state can be realized during the operation. (Fourth Embodiment) FIGS. 11A and 11B show a schematic configuration of a fourth embodiment of the present invention, and the same parts as those in FIG. 10 are denoted by the same reference numerals. .
