Abstract
Improved transducing techniques and arrangements; the embodiments particularly adapted for co-action with disk drive apparatus for handling flexible disk packs, and including a partitioning shield, flexure-bar mounted transducer head under the shield, along with disk-cleaner/stabilizer means--especially where these are arrayed in the form of a double-opposed transducer assembly adapted to be so manipulated into the pack as to double-partition the pack away from a selected disk on which opposed dual-transducing operations may be carried out. Such arrangements eliminate the need for separate pressure-pads, incorporating them on opposed-heads adapted to transduce on both sides of a record mounted on the ends of respective pivotable flexure-bars. Such cleaner/stabilizers can be opposed, engaged an intermediate record, squeezingly.
