Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain high speed focus position control by forecasting the position of an object track of light spot when an optical tape is transferred from an intermittent region to the next scanning region. CONSTITUTION:A control system 8 detects an out of focus signal from a focus position detecting section 10 so as to control a focal position controlling lens 5. A control system 9 is provided so that the optical tape 6 is transferred to the scanning region and the focus is matched to the position of the object track, and an optical tape presence detecting section 14 detects a region where the optical tape 6 is intermittent so as to drive the lens 5. A just focus detecting circuit 18 is provided to switch the control system 8, 9 by means of an analog switch 17. The lens 5 is driven in high speed when the region is transferred to the scanning region so as to move the focus position thereby matching the focus onto the optical tape 6. Then the control system 8 conducts the focus position control, and when the optical tape 6 is intermittent, the control is taken over to the control system 9 so as to retract the remotest end and bring it in the standby state.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to optical spot control for an optical tape device,
In particular, the present invention relates to a high-speed light spot control method for controlling the focus position and track position of a light spot, which is suitable when reflected light is interrupted periodically.

〔発明の背景〕[Background of the invention]

光テープ装置は光ビームの強弱によってテープ状の媒体
である光テープに情報を記憶し、再生する装置である。
An optical tape device is a device that stores and reproduces information on an optical tape, which is a tape-shaped medium, by varying the intensity of a light beam.

An example of this type of device is disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-64333. However, in such an optical recording and reproducing system, since the optical tape is wound around about half of the rotary head in a so-called Ω-wrap, there is a region where the reflected light beam does not return. As a means to eliminate this area, optical tape is wrapped around the entire circumference of the rotating head.
All you have to do is roll it up and match the edges of the optical tape. However, if this method is used, the optical tape is likely to be damaged and dust is likely to be generated. Therefore, even in the case of α-winding, it is necessary to create an area on the optical tape and use a method for winding it around the optical head.

Therefore, when the optical tape is wound around the optical tape as in the conventional device, there is a region where the reflected light is interrupted, and during this period it is impossible to control the track position and focus position. Unable to control position quickly.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to control a light spot in an optical tape device so that the light spot is quickly moved to a target track position when moving from an area to the next scanning area at a break in an optical tape wound around a head. This is what we provide.

When the optical tape moves from the interrupted area to the next scanning area, high-speed focus position control and track position control are performed by predicting the position of the target track of the optical spot. For track position control, it is necessary to set the track direction drive unit within a reference range within which the light spot can be moved so that the light spot can be moved to the position of the target track. In the area where the optical tape is interrupted, the detected value of the track position detector is sampled and held using the point at which it reaches the target track position that started after moving to the scanning area as a trigger, and the detected values of the track position detector over several times are averaged. To control a track position by adjusting an optical tape feeding speed so as to reach a reference position and setting a track direction drive part within a reference range in which a light spot can be moved.

Then, fluctuations in the transport speed of the optical tape and the amount of displacement of the optical tape in the track direction are detected, and the position of the target track when it moves to the scanning area is predicted to control the track position. In the scanning area, control is performed using reflected light, similar to that used in optical disk devices.

Focus position control is similar to that used in optical disk devices, when the optical tape moves from the interrupted area to the next scanning area, the focus position control unit is driven significantly from the set position, and when the focus is on the optical tape, it is similar to that used in optical disk devices. The system is then transferred to a new control system to perform high-speed focal position control.

First, when the optical tape 6 is in an interrupted area, the focal position control lens 5 is retracted to the farthest end and is on standby, and when moving to the next scanning region, the focal position control lens 5 is quickly moved to the other end. The focal position moves by driving the optical tape 6 to focus on the optical tape 6. At that point, the control system is transferred to the control system 8 to control the focus position in the scanning area, and when the optical tape 6 breaks, the control system is transferred to the control system 9 in the main area.
As a result, the focal position control lens 5 is retracted to the farthest end, stands by, and repeats the same operation.
