  • Patent number: 5949626
    Abstract: A magnetic head 10 includes a pair of a C-type core 11 and an I-type core 12 which are butt-joined together, a gap section 14 defined between the butt-joined surfaces of the cores, track width regulating grooves 11b, 12b which are formed in a magnetic medium slide surface so as to limit the width of the gap 14 to a predetermined width, and bonding glass 16 bonded to the track width regulating grooves. The I-type core has track width regulating grooves which extend from the butt-joined surface to the outer side surface within at least the magnetic medium slide surface, and a reinforcing member 15 is attached to the outer side surface of the I-type core, so that the magnetic medium slide surface is extended.

  • Patent number: 5907457
    Abstract: In a magnetic head for writing/reading a magnetic disk comprising sliders (15, 16) having sliding surfaces which are brought into contact with a surface of the magnetic disk so as to slide relatively to the magnetic disk and a spacer (20) for adjusting height of the sliders (15, 16), each of the sliders (15, 16) is formed from a nonmagnetic material consisting of calcium titanate, and the spacer (20) is formed from a ferrite-group magnetic material, the ferrite-group magnetic material being selected to have substantially the same coefficient of thermal expansion as that of the nonmagnetic material.

  • Patent number: 5831799
    Abstract: A magnetic head for use with a floppy disk device includes sliders (15, 16) formed in such a way that a magnetic head core (11) having a normal capacity is interposed between them and a magnetic head core having a large capacity (12) formed so as to be adjacent to one of the sliders. Grooves (15b, 15c, 20, 21) are respectively formed in the joints between the magnetic head core (11) having a standard capacity and the sliders (15, 16) and the joint between the magnetic head core having a large capacity (12) and the adjacent slider.

  • Patent number: 5648883
    Abstract: An improved disc drive is capable of compensating the relative positional shift of a head caused mainly by a temperature change. The disc drive includes a frame having a disc holder for rotatably driving a disc, a head for reading information recorded in the disc, a head carriage which is movable in a predetermined radial direction of the disc, a rotation shaft extending in parallel with the radial direction, a driving mechanism for moving the head carriage in the radial direction by engaging with the rotation shaft, an adjustment mechanism for compensating the positional shift of the head due to a change of ambient temperature by providing an additional deformation of the adjustment mechanism to the carriage.
