  • Apparatus for recording and reproducing information with respect to a flexible recording medium
    Patent number: 4085428
    Abstract: A pair of mutually-offset, selectively-engageable transducers read and write information on opposite surfaces of a flexible disk magnetic recording medium. Operative contact between each transducer and the flexible surface is established by one of an offset pair of pressure pads which ride on the opposite side of the disk from and directly aligned with the corresponding transducer. The selective engagement of each transducer with the flexible medium results from the selective activation of control devices which pull one or the other of the spring-loaded pressure pads away from the disk surface.
