【発明の詳細な説明】
本発明は、光もしくは磁気を用いてデータを読み出すデ
ィスク記憶装置(以下単にディスク装置という)に関す
るものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a disk storage device (hereinafter simply referred to as a disk device) that reads data using light or magnetism.
データファイルの重要な手段であるディスク装置のデー
タ記憶SNは、光デイスク媒体の出現等によシ飛躍的に
増大する傾向にるる。The data storage SN of a disk device, which is an important means for storing data files, has tended to increase dramatically with the advent of optical disk media.
一方、従来のディスク装置においては、第1図に示す様
に、ディスク媒体1の同一面上に通常1本のデータ読出
し用アーム2を配置している。尚、ここで6は読み出し
制御部である。特にデータ読出し速度の向上を計ること
等のために共通に制御される複数本の読出し用アームを
配置するといったものもあるが、本質的にはただ一つの
読み出し手段を備えていることに変シはない。そうした
単一のデータ読み出し手段の能力には限界があシ、飛開
的に増大するディスク媒体の記憶容量との間に著しいア
ンバランスが生ずることは避られす、そうした状況下で
は記録されているデータの有効な利用は期し離い。On the other hand, in conventional disk drives, one data reading arm 2 is usually arranged on the same surface of a disk medium 1, as shown in FIG. Note that 6 is a readout control section here. In particular, in order to improve the data reading speed, there are systems in which multiple reading arms that are commonly controlled are arranged, but essentially the system is equipped with only one reading means. There isn't. There is a limit to the ability of such a single data reading means, and it is necessary to avoid creating a significant imbalance with the rapidly increasing storage capacity of disk media. Effective use of data is overdue.
本発明は大容量記憶ディスク媒体に整合しうる全く新し
い概念の、すなわち複数個のデータ読出し手段を備えた
ディスク装置を提供することにある。The object of the present invention is to provide a completely new concept of a disk device that can be adapted to large-capacity storage disk media, that is, a disk device equipped with a plurality of data reading means.
本発明によれは、あらかじめデータが記憶されたディス
ク媒体の同一面上に独立した制御下にある複数個のデー
タ読出し用アームを配置したことを特徴とするディスク
装置が得られる。According to the present invention, there is provided a disk device characterized in that a plurality of independently controlled data reading arms are arranged on the same surface of a disk medium in which data is previously stored.
次に本発明の一実施例について第2図を用いて説明する
。Next, one embodiment of the present invention will be described using FIG. 2.
第2図は本発明の一実施例の構成図で、第2図に示す如
くディスク媒体1の同一面に複数のデータ読み取ジアー
ム2,3,4.5を配置し、その各々に読み出し制御部
6,7,8.9を接続する。この各々の読み出し制御部
6,7,8.9は互いに全く独立に制御することができ
るものである。FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, in which a plurality of data reading arms 2, 3, 4.5 are arranged on the same surface of the disk medium 1 as shown in FIG. Connect 6, 7, 8.9. These readout control units 6, 7, 8.9 can be controlled completely independently of each other.
この様に構成することによシ、ディスク媒体1は同一方
向に連続回転し、4つデータ読み出しアーム2,3.4
.5はディスク媒体10回転方向と垂直に図め矢印の如
く往復運動を行う。又4つの読み取υ制御部6,7,8
.9は各々対応する抗み出しアーム2,3,4.5をデ
ィスク媒体1上の読み出したデータの記憶されている半
径位置へ移動させるとともに、その半径上の円周位置か
らデータの読み出し制御會行う。With this configuration, the disk medium 1 rotates continuously in the same direction, and the four data reading arms 2, 3, 4
.. 5 is perpendicular to the direction of rotation of the disk medium 10, and performs reciprocating motion as shown by the arrow. Also, four reading υ control units 6, 7, 8
.. Reference numeral 9 moves the corresponding protruding arms 2, 3, 4.5 to the radial position on the disk medium 1 where the read data is stored, and also controls the reading of data from the circumferential position on the radius. conduct.
本発明では、データの仇み出し系が複数個6Dその系が
互に独立であるので、回転するディスク媒体1から同時
に複数の独立したデータを読み出すことが出来る。In the present invention, since a plurality of data reading systems 6D are independent from each other, a plurality of independent data can be simultaneously read from the rotating disk medium 1.
この事は、従来の方式に比べて飛躍的にディスクのデー
タ読み出し能力を向上させる事を慈味する。つマシ、同
一回転速度を有するディスク媒体に於いて、複数アーム
全体から同一時間当シ抗み出し得るデータ量は、従来の
単一アーム方式のアーム数倍となり、データ読み出し能
力の向上が著しい。This makes it possible to dramatically improve the data readability of the disk compared to conventional methods. In fact, for disk media having the same rotational speed, the amount of data that can be read out from all of the multiple arms at the same time is twice as many as the number of arms in the conventional single arm system, and the data reading capability is significantly improved.
本発明によれば、ディスク媒体の回転速度を上げること
なく簡単にデータの読み出し能力の向上したディスク記
憶装置を得ることが出来る。According to the present invention, it is possible to easily obtain a disk storage device with improved data reading ability without increasing the rotational speed of the disk medium.
第1図は、従来のディスク記憶装置の第14成図、第2
図は本発明によるディスク記憶装置の一実施例の構成図
である。Figure 1 shows the 14th diagram and the 2nd diagram of a conventional disk storage device.
The figure is a configuration diagram of an embodiment of a disk storage device according to the present invention.
