  • Magnetic disk apparatus with flexible printed circuit attached to head carriage by double sided pressure sensitive tape
    Patent number: 5400195
    Abstract: A magnetic disk apparatus including magnetic disks and a magnetic head assembly for access to the magnetic disks. The magnetic head assembly includes a head carriage having a hub and integral head arms, magnetic heads being carried by the head arms.
