A flying head slider utilizing a negative pressure according to the invention has a front end, a rear end, and an air bearing surface directed to face a rotating recording medium. The air bearing surface includes a pair of side rails extending on both sides of the air bearing surface from the front end in the longitudinal direction of the slider, a center rail provided at the center of the air bearing surface in the transverse direction and extending from the front end to the rear end in the longitudinal direction of the slider, a cross rail extending in the transverse direction of the slider to connect the pair of side rails and the center rail to each other near the front end, a pair of recesses defined by the pair of side rails, the center rail and the cross rail, communicating grooves for communicating the pair of recesses with the front end, and a head mounted on a rear end surface of the center rail. The pair of side rails, the center rail and the cross rail lie substantially in the same plane. The pair of side rails are spaced from the rear end and are terminated at oblique edges in agreement with oblique lines extending from side edges of the slider to the center of the center rail at its rear end. The pair of side rails each has a width shape which is gradually narrowed from the front end toward a narrow portion located in a vicinity of a center of the slider, and is gradually spread from the narrow portion toward the rear end. The center rail is extended from the front end with substantially a constant width, followed by a width shape gradually spreading toward the rear end.

An apparatus for measuring the clearance between a recording transducer and a recording medium, which includes at least a conductive layer or conductive section, comprises a field electron emission electrode section disposed on the recording transducer, a voltage source for applying a voltage, which is greater at least in its peak value than the work functions of the electrode section and the conductive layer or conductive section of the recording medium, between the electrode section and the conductive layer or conductive section of the recording medium, a current measuring device for measuring the current flowing from the voltage source to the electrode section and the conductive layer or conductive section of the recording medium, and a computation processor for calculating the distance between the electrode section and the recording medium from the value of current measured by the current measuring device. A recording apparatus having the recording transducer clearance measuring apparatus is designed to support the recording transducer, which records and reproduces data on the recording medium, with a recording transducer supporting device through an advance/retract mechanism and to drive the mechanism in accordance with the distance calculated by the computation processor so as to adjust appropriately the clearance between the recording transducer and recording medium. A control method for the recording apparatus alters the operational condition of the recording apparatus if the clearance has exceeded a certain preset value.

A suspension for supporting a wheel on a vehicle body includes a hollow shaft fixed to the vehicle body, an arm having one end coupled to the wheel and an opposite end pivotally supported on an outer peripheral surface of the hollow shaft, a rotary damper interposed between the hollow shaft and the arm, for dampening swinging movement of the arm with respect to the hollow shaft, and a torsion bar extending through the hollow shaft and having one end fixed to the vehicle body and an opposite end coupled to the opposite end of the arm for angular movement in unison with the arm.
摘要:
A flying head slider for supporting a magnetic head operative to transmit information into and out of a recording medium has a slider body having a surface to be disposed in faced relationship to the recording medium. Positive pressure generating portions are formed on the surface of the slider body to generate a positive pressure during rotation of the recording medium relative to the slider body. A bearing is formed in the fluid-inlet end of each positive pressure generating section to enhance a bearing action due to abrupt compression of fluid. A bleed slot is defined between the positive pressure generating sections and has a fluid-inlet end provided with a negative pressure generating means, whereby the slider stably floats a predetermined distance away from the recording medium during rotation thereof to enable the magnetic head to transmit information.
