Abstract
A magnetic head support mechanism comprises a beam portion and a mount for connection to an actuator, which are integrally formed of a ceramic material. The beam portion has a magnetic head supported on a free end side thereof, which magnetic head comprises a magnetic head element and a magnetic head slider. The beam portion has at a part thereof a curved portion which is formed by spontaneous deformation due to internal stress. The integrated magnetic head support mechanism thus provided can be easily handled similarly to a conventional stainless-steel magnetic head support mechanism.
