A magnetic head supporting mechanism comprises a damper placed between a spring operation part of a head-supporting plate spring for supporting and mounting a magnetic head and a holder for supporting and fixing said plate spring thereby damping vibration of said spring operation part by surface friction between said damper and said spring operation part.

Magnetic head supporting mechanism

A magnetic head supporting mechanism for a double side type flexible disc drive apparatus is rotatably driven and contains a first and second magnetic head for read-out or write-in on each magnetic recording surface of the disc. The magnetic head is slidably contacted with the surface during the operation and includes a carriage having a first and second magnetic head which is positioned on a predetermined data track of the disc with the carriage having first and second arms and one of the arms being rotated with the first and second magnetic head assemblies being mounted on the first and second arm respectively. One of the magnetic head assemblies contains a resilient holder affixed to the arm and simultaneously fixed to the magnetic head while a gimbal spring which is disposed on the holder and has a surface fitted to the head also contains a projection which is formed on the other surface. A point member is fixed on the holder at one end and is fitted in such a manner that it contacts the projection of the gimbal spring on the other end.

Magnetic head supporting mechanism for a magnetic disc apparatus

A magnetic head supporting mechanism equipped with a magnetic head positioning carriage of a interchangeable double side type flexible disc drive apparatus comprising a carriage having a pair of arms which is rotated in detachable to a double side type flexible disc and arms, and arm parts in the arms and sliding type magnetic heads which are respectively mounted on the arm part and slide on the surface of the flexible disc and gimbal spring placed between each sliding type magnetic head and each arm part.
