Abstract
A flying head slider supporting mechanism comprises a rigid body disposed away from the surface of a magnetic recording medium by a predetermined distance, an air flow passage extending through the rigid body to the surface of the magnetic recording medium, a device for generating an air flow passing through the air flow passage toward the surface of the magnetic recording medium or generating an air flow passing from the surface, a read/write head for reproducing data recording on the magnetic recording medium or recording the same on the magnetic recording medium, a head slider disposed in the air flow and supporting the read/write head, a device for supporting the head slider movable relative to the rigid body in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the magnetic recording medium, and a device for generating a relative movement between the head slider and the magnetic recording medium.
