Abstract
A composite optical disk structure includes a first transparent disk plate having a first center hole, a first stamper clamp groove and a first information recording area on its one main surface; a second transparent disk plate having a second center hole having a diameter equal to that of the first center hole, a second stamper clamp groove and a second information recording area on its one main surface; a transparent adhesive sandwiched between the first and second transparent disk plates to bond the one main surfaces of them; and a mechanism formed between the one main surfaces for preventing the transparent adhesive from leaking our into the center holes.
Claims5
A single-side reproduction type composite optical disk structure comprising:
- a first transparent disk plate having a first center hole, a first stamper clamp groove and a first information recording area formed on its one main surface;
- a second transparent disk plate having a second center hole having a diameter equal to that of the first center hole, and a second stamper clamp groove and a second information recording area formed on its one main surface;
- a transparent adhesive sandwiched between said first and said second transparent disk plates to bond the one main surfaces of them;
- a first ring-shaped projection formed on the main surface of said first transparent disk plate so as to surround the first center hole, forming a portion thereof;
- a second ring-shaped projection formed on the main surface of said second transparent disk plate so as to surround the second center hole, forming a portion thereof;
- said first and second projections having an approximately equal height and abutting each other, thereby preventing the adhesive from flowing into the first and second center holes.
