  • Moving carriage for disk head positioner
    Patent number: 4001889
    Abstract: A positioner for heads in a rotating disk memory. A carriage in the positioner comprises a central frame, head assembly and coil unit. The central frame moves longitudinally on four wheels which ride in ways in a housing. An end housing portion contains magnetic circuitry to displace the armature and entire carriage longitudinally thereby to position the head unit with respect to tracks on the disk. The integral nature of the carriage enables the center of gravity for the carriage to be centered on the wheels.
