Abstract
A disc substrate inject-molded comprises; a first circular surface having an inner non-data region formed around a center hole thereof and an outer data region formed around the non-data region; a second circular flat surface opposite and parallel to the first circular surface; and a ring shaped stack-rib formed on the non-data region.
Claims5
An injection-molded disc substrate for a laminated optical disc comprising:
- a first circular surface having an inner non-data region formed around a center hole thereof and an outer data region formed around said non-data region;
- a second circular surface being entirely flat, opposite and parallel to said first circular surface;
- and
- a ring shaped stack-rib formed on said inner non-data region of the first circular surface having the inner non-data region.

A disc substrate molding die for injection-molding a disc substrate for a laminated optical disc comprising:
- a pair of first and second molding die halves each having a circular molding surface for defining a disc cavity for a disc substrate by facing each other in a mold-clamped status thereof;
- an inner circumference holding ring with a holding edge for holding an inner circumference edge of a stamper provided on the molding surface of the first molding die half for defining a first circular surface of the disc substrate having an inner non-data region and an outer data region formed around said non-data region;
- a mirror face plate being entirely flat for defining a second circular surface opposite and parallel to said first circular surface of the disc substrate and formed on the molding surface of the second molding die half;
- an injection means for injecting a molten material into a center of the disc cavity;
- a cutting means for cutting a hardened material disposed inside of the holding ring adjacent to the center of the disc cavity;
- and
- a circular groove for forming a stack-rib on the inner non-data region of the first circular surface of the disc substrate and formed on the molding surface of the first molding die half between the holding edge and the cutting means.

An optical disc comprising:
- a first injection-molded disc substrate of a transparent material through which a light beam is irradiated;
- a second disc substrate inject-molded comprising a first circular surface having an inner non-data region formed around a center hole thereof and an outer data region formed around said non-data region;
- a second circular surface being entirely flat, opposite and parallel to said first circular surface;
- and a ring shaped stack-rib formed on said inner non-data region of the first circular surface, wherein said first circular flat surface is adhere via an adhesive layer to the first disc substrate;
- and
- a printed region formed on the second circular flat surface of the second disc substrate.
