摘要:
First and second magnetic heads, or magnetic head sliders containing these heads, which are brought into contact with a magnetic disc on its both sides so as to record and reproduce information signals, are respectively supported by first and second swing arms. The first and second swing arms are respectively supported by first and second elastic bodies. The swing arms are respectively provided with first and second adjusting screws for adjusting the movable range of the swing arms. The first adjusting screw operates to adjust the pressure of a first spring supported by the first arm and the position of the first magnetic head. The second adjusting screw operates to locate the associated second magnetic head to a position which is adjusted to the thus-adjusted position of the first magnetic head.

In a disk unit having a rotating mechanism to rotate the disk by pinching the disk at both sides, and a loading mechanism to bring a read-write head into contact with the disk, a method for driving the disk includes the steps in which, at the time of recording and reproduction, the rotating mechanism and the loading mechanism are actuated simultaneously, and when the recording and reproduction are completed, the rotating mechanism is stopped simultaneously with release of the loading mechanism, or after the lapse of a predetermined time from the release.
摘要:
A housing for an information recording and reproducing apparatus is adapted for increased storage capacity and an increased operating speed by placing a relatively larger number of relatively smaller magnetic disks each having a relatively smaller mass and a relatively smaller recording and reproducing surface in an enclosure and housing the enclosure for a relatively larger magnetic disc in a box-like frame. A shock absorbing device is disposed between the enclosure and the box-like frame to absorb shock. A circuit assembly for controlling the operation of recording and reproducing is disposed outside the enclosure and between the frame and the enclosure.

A method of first erasing the full width of a recording track using an erase core before recording data into a flexible disk and then writing the new data into the erased area using a read/write core, and an apparatus for effecting the same are disclosed. The erasure by the erase core is done in an AC manner. A gap pattern used to form a gap area is written by the read/write core into a portion of the erased area where no valid data has been written.

A method of adjusting the position of a magnetic head in a magnetic head positioning mechanism positions the magnetic head at a target track on a magnetic disk. Since a floppy disk system is so designed as to make a floppy disk replaceable, it is necessary to adjust accurately the position of the magnetic head from the position of a spindle. According to the present invention, the position of the magnetic head is adjusted by the method wherein the displacement of an amount of deviation from a prescribed track in the magnetic head positioning mechanism is calculated beforehand, the amount of deviation is sampled subsequently by moving the magnetic head, this sampled amount of deviation is compared with the aforesaid calculated displacement to know the maximum and minimum values of the amounts of deviation on the track of movement of the magnetic head, and the adjustment is implemented on the basis of these values.
摘要:
A floppy disk driver intended to protect the disk center hole from damage when the disk is mounted. The arrangement includes a speed detection circuit for detecting a relatively low rotational speed of the disk and a control circuit for speeding up the disk to a higher rotational speed for the read/write operation in response to the detection of the lower disk speed, whereby the disk is protected from damage by being rotated at the lower speed when its center hole is held between the collet and spindle.
摘要:
Increased memory capacity for a magnetic disk device is realized without degrading information error rate, by making the number of sectors at a given circumference of the disk variable in accordance with a radial direction of a disk. The number of sectors is made variable by deciding a predetermined information error rate from a ratio of reproduced signal output to noises of head, disk and amplifier at a maximum recording and reproducing frequency at a certain radial position along a disk.

摘要:
A favorable balance of mass and strength is provided by the truss type beam formed through the use of triangular apertures in the head arm, which further can be arranged to provide a greater leading edge beam strength than trailing edge beam strength. With increased density of data and correspondingly decreased flying height, favorable results are obtained by making the outermost yaw angle greater than the innermost yaw angle. Mass unbalance can be corrected by shifting the coil position.
摘要:
In a rotary actuator including a voice coil motor having a coil fitted to the other end portion of a carriage fixed to a rotary shaft and having a load at one of the end portions thereof, the rotary actuator of the present invention is characterized in that the rotation on the coil side and the rotation on the load side with respect to the rotary shaft are balanced. The weight of the coil is adjusted by forming the coil by at least two kinds of coil wires having different specific gravities, and where a plurality of coils are disposed on the outer side of the rotary shaft, the weight of the coil on the load side is made smaller than that of the coil on the opposite side.
