Abstract
A carriage in a position control mechanism using an access mechanism of a magnetic disk device or a linear motor is supported linearly movable in parallel to a positioning reference plane on a stationary side by means of a carriage support mechanism. The carriage support mechanism is composed of support units rigidly engaged with the carriage or the stationary side and support units elastically engaged with the carriage or the stationary side. The rigidly and elastically engaged units are selectively arranged so that the carriage is prevented from being inclined by thermal deformations due to the heat generation caused upon the driving of the carriage.
