TAPE CARTRIDGE DRIVE BELT HAVING A LOW RATIO OF STATIC TO DYNAMIC FRICTION

An elastomer drive belt (100), for a bidirectional two reel tape cartridge (20), having a low static to dynamic coefficient of friction ratio with the magnetic tape (38) is provided. The drive belt minimizes slip point (96) movement between the belt and the magnetic tape on the take up reel. This re...

Zusammenfassung:An elastomer drive belt (100), for a bidirectional two reel tape cartridge (20), having a low static to dynamic coefficient of friction ratio with the magnetic tape (38) is provided. The drive belt minimizes slip point (96) movement between the belt and the magnetic tape on the take up reel. This results in a minimization of tape tension variations at the transducer head (42).
