Abstract
A player for video disc includes a vacuum reading head to 'read' recorded information from a thin, flexible video disc. A rotating turntable provides a fluid cushion bearing to support the disc and the vacuum associated with the transducing head assembly 'draws' the disc toward the head and maintains an optimum head-to-disc spacing.
