Abstract
A disk locating actuator of a disk apparatus has a carrier member carrying a head and a curved flexible printed circuit fixed at its one end to the carrier member and at its other end to a base. Angles at which the flexible printed circuit is fixed are suitably determined so as to diminish any dynamic reacting force produced by vibration of the flexible printed circuit, thus ensuring high degree of head locating precision.
