摘要:
A magnetic head support mechanism comprises a beam portion and a mount for connection to an actuator, which are integrally formed of a ceramic material. The beam portion has a magnetic head supported on a free end side thereof, which magnetic head comprises a magnetic head element and a magnetic head slider. The beam portion has at a part thereof a curved portion which is formed by spontaneous deformation due to internal stress. The integrated magnetic head support mechanism thus provided can be easily handled similarly to a conventional stainless-steel magnetic head support mechanism.

Magnetic disk unit 1 is connected to personal computer 400 through recording mode selecting means 2, and recording mode selecting means 2 can select one of 3 recording modes (high reliability, large capacity, and high speed) and magnetic disk unit 1 records information with the recording method selected by recording mode selecting means 2. The controllability of the magnetic disk unit 1 and personal computer 400 is improved significantly by selecting the most suitable recording method according to the characteristics of information to be recorded.

A magnetic head slider assembly for a magnetic disk type recording/reproducing apparatus includes a slider body, a sliding pad provided on the slider body and projecting beyond a disk facing surface thereof, a thin film layer disposed at one end of the slider body, a magnetic head constituted by the thin film layer as an integral part thereof, and a core pad projection incorporating therein a core of the magnetic head and projecting beyond an adjacent disk facing surface of the slider body. The sliding pad is provided at a region of the slider body ahead of the core pad projection and prevents generation of a floating force by making use of a relative movement between the slider body and the magnetic disk. The core pad projection is not formed as a continuation of the slider body and is separated from the sliding pad a predetermined distance longitudinally of the slider body by a recess interposed therebetween whereby the core pad projection is positioned closer to the magnetic disk than a back end of the sliding pad.

Three pads are disposed on the surface of a magnetic head facing to a storage medium and are brought into contact with the surface of the storage medium through a lubricant layer. The total of areas of the three pads is equal to or larger than 0.0001 mm.sup.2 and equal to or smaller than 0.02 mm.sup.2 and the height of the pads is equal to or higher than 5 .mu.m and equal to or lower than 100 .mu.m. Two pads of the three pads include tapers formed in the front thereof and are disposed in a forward position in a relative movement direction to the storage medium and one remaining pad is disposed in a backward position. The total of areas of the two pads in the forward position is set to be narrower than an area of the pad in the backward position. A writing and reading function unit is provided in the pad in the backward position.

A disk drive. The disk drive includes a head-slider, an actuator, a ramp and a shroud. The head-slider is configured to fly above the disk. The actuator is configured to support the head-slider and to swing about a pivot shaft to move the head-slider in a radial direction of the disk. The actuator may also be configured to rest on the ramp in a stand-by position. The shroud includes an inner peripheral side surface and an outer peripheral side surface. The shroud is configured to control an air-stream which flows in a direction from the pivot shaft toward the head-slider. The inner peripheral side surface and the outer peripheral side surface are configured to blast the head-slider with the air-stream upon spinning the disk when the head-slider is positioned away from the disk in the stand-by position.

Embodiments of the invention provide a magnetic disk drive whose flexibility in the layout of components is enhanced in spite of the fact that a magnetic disk and a driving section such as the voice coil motor that drives a head arm are isolated from each other. In one embodiment, a magnetic disk drive includes a magnetic disk compartment in which a magnetic disk, a head that reads/writes data from/onto the magnetic disk, and a head arm holding the head are disposed, and a VCM compartment with an internally disposed VCM that pivotally moves the head arm about a pivot shaft. The magnetic disk compartment and the VCM compartment are separated by an isolation wall provided at the bottom of the magnetic disk compartment along the recording surface of the magnetic disk. The pivot shaft is disposed in a penetrating form in an opening.

A magnetic head slider includes a magnetic head mounting surface, a slider rail surface, a step air bearing surface, and a negative pressure groove. The magnetic head mounting surface is arranged in a center area with respect to a width of the slider near an air flow-out edge on the slider and mounts a magnetic head. The slider rail surface has a first depth from the magnetic head mounting surface and its width on an air flow-in side for the magnetic head is wider that its width on an air flow-out side for the magnetic head. The step air bearing surface is formed on an air flow-in side of the slider rail surface and has a second depth from the slider rail surface. The negative-pressure groove which formed on an air flow-in side of the step air bearing surface and has a third depth from the step air bearing surface.

A magnetic disk device includes a magnetic disk, and a magnetic head slider. The slider has a magnetic head, a plurality of surfaces which are formed sequentially from an adjacent side to a magnetic disk, and a slider rail surface which is arranged near an air flow-out edge on a nearest surface of the plurality of surfaces. The slider rail surface includes a long sideways rail surface on an air flow-in side and a lengthwise rail surface on an air flow-out side. The nearest surface of the plurality of surfaces is arranged only in a center area with respect to a width of the slider near the air flow-out edge and has a width substantially less than the width of the slider. An area of the long sideways rail surface is larger than an area of the lengthwise rail surface.
