Device and method for reading out information stored in a storage layer
View Patent ↗A device and a method for reading out information stored in a storage layer. In this connection it is possible to support the storage layer on a support surface. An emission radiation transmitted from the storage layer is received by means of a receiving device. A distance between the receiving device and the support surface can be variably adjusted.
1. Device for reading out information stored in a storage layer, comprising:
a support surface for supporting the storage layer;
a receiving device for receiving an emission radiation transmitted from the storage layer;
a drive device for producing a relative movement between the receiving device and the storage layer;
guide means for guiding the receiving device or the storage layer on the support surface, acting as a guide surface, during execution of the relative movement; and
an adjustment unit for the variable adjustment of a distance between the receiving device and the support surface, said adjustment unit comprising: a spindle having two connecting elements that are guided in parallel, and connected to the guide means so the receiving device can rotate about a connection point with the guide means.
