Abstract
A pressure arm assembly is disclosed for use in a data recorder of the type employing a disc recording medium and a carrier supporting a magnetic head. The pressure arm assembly includes a bracket and an upper arm pivotally carried by the bracket for rotation about a transverse axis. A spring biases the arm into engagement with the head carrier. An automatic release lever is carried by the bracket and holds the upper arm in a first nonoperating position and releases the arm so that it may pivot under the action of the spring upon insertion of a disc into the data recorder.
