Moving Record Carriers Backward/Forward TRIZ Cases
- Electrostatic Tape Actuation for Fast, Low-Cost Data Storage
Electrostatic pulling and clamping electrodes move a flexible tape in precise steps, combining fast access with low cost per bit.
- Dielectric Tape Storage with Electrostatic Actuation for Fast Access
Alternating dielectric regions let electrostatic actuators move data tape quickly, enabling compact low-cost storage with faster small-file access.
- Tape Drive Automatic Unthreading for Adhesion Prevention
Periodic detection of tape adhesion conditions prevents head damage while minimizing response time penalties during stationary periods.
- Dynamic Braking Algorithm for Tape Storage Power Loss
A dynamic braking algorithm manages supply and take-up reel tension during power loss events in tape storage devices.
