Stop position adjusting device and stop position adjusting method for accessor mechanism

An information recording device using a recording cartridge, comprising:

• a magazine configured to include a cell storing said recording cartridge;
• and
• a stop position adjusting device for an accessor mechanism,
• wherein said stop position adjusting device includes:
• said accessor mechanism configured to insert said recording cartridge into said cell and take out said recording cartridge from said cell,
• a first moving mechanism configured to move said accessor mechanism in a first direction,
• a second moving mechanism configured to move said accessor mechanism in a second direction different from said first direction, and
• an image taking section configured to be provided on said accessor mechanism and detect a position of a mark provided near said cell,
• wherein an adjustment of a stop position of said accessor mechanism for said cell is executed based on said position detected by said image taking section,
• wherein when a jig having an adjustment mark is attached in said accessor mechanism, said image taking section detects a first position of said adjustment mark,
• wherein when said first moving mechanism and said second moving mechanism move said accessor mechanism based on a predetermined stored stop position information, said image taking section detects a second position of said mark provided near the cell after the jig is detached from said accessor, and
• wherein said adjustment of said stop position is executed based on a misalignment between said first position and said second position.

A stop position adjusting method executed by a stop position adjusting device for an accessor mechanism in an information recording device using a recording cartridge, wherein said stop position adjusting device includes:

• said accessor mechanism configured to insert said recording cartridge into a cell and take out said recording cartridge from said cell,
• a first moving mechanism configured to move said accessor mechanism in a first direction,
• a second moving mechanism configured to move said accessor mechanism in a second direction different from said first direction,
• an image taking section configured to be provided on said accessor mechanism and detect a position of a mark provided near said cell, and
• a control section configured to control said first moving mechanism, said second moving mechanism and said image taking section,
• said stop position adjusting method comprising:
• said image taking section, when a jig having an adjustment mark is attached in said accessor mechanism, detecting a first position of said adjustment mark;
• said image taking section, when said first moving mechanism and said second moving mechanism move said accessor mechanism based on a predetermined stored stop position information, detecting a second position of said mark provided near the cell;
• and
• said control section calculating said misalignment between said first position and said second position, and adjusting said stop position based on said misalignment.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer program, the computer program executable by a stop position adjusting device for an accessor mechanism in an information recording device using a recording cartridge, execution of the computer program resulting a stop position method being performed, the stop position method comprising:

• causing said accessor mechanism of said stop position adjusting device insert said recording cartridge into a cell and take out said recording cartridge from said cell;
• causing a first moving mechanism of said stop position adjusting device configured to move said accessor mechanism in a first direction;
• causing a second moving mechanism of said stop position adjusting device configured to move said accessor mechanism in a second direction different from said first direction;
• causing an image taking section of said stop position adjusting device configured to be provided on said accessor mechanism and detect a position of a mark provided near said cell;
• and
• causing a control section of said stop position adjusting device configured to control said first moving mechanism, said second moving mechanism and said image taking section;
• causing, when a jig having an adjustment mark is attached in said accessor mechanism, said control section to obtain a first position of said adjustment mark, which is detected by said image taking section;
• causing, when said first moving mechanism and said second moving mechanism move said accessor mechanism based on a predetermined stored stop position information, said control section to obtain a second position of said mark provided near the cell, which is detected by said image taking section;
• causing said control section to calculate said misalignment between said first position and said second position, and to adjust said stop position based on said misalignment;
• and
• causing said control section to control said first moving mechanism and said second moving mechanism so as to move said accessor mechanism to said adjusted stop position.
