Abstract
An improved means for mounting a magnetic read head in a card reader is disclosed. The subject mounting means is simpler in construction and requires both fewer parts and smaller space in which to operate than previous mounting means. The subject mounting means allows the magnetic read head to move to conform to the plane of a magnetic stripe on a card as the card is passed beneath the read head.
