Abstract: A method and apparatus for analysis of magnetic characteristics of a magnetic device used for designing a magnetic head. The magnetic head has recording and reproducing characteristics and a recording and reproducing apparatus of magnetic characteristics. The apparatus for analysis of magnetic characteristics includes a data input part, a coupled analysis part, and a result output part. The data input part is provided with data related to the characteristics of substances composing the magnetic device, data related to the magnetic device divided into a plurality of parts, data concerning the boundary conditions for analysis of the magnetic device, and data concerning the boundary conditions for analysis of the magnetic field.

Abstract: A head cleaning device for use in a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus comprises a cleaning roller in which a lubricant with an excellent lubricating action under low humidity conditions impregnates the soft material. This lubricant compensates for the drop in the natural lubricating action resulting from a moisture deficiency, and therefore prevents the production of seized deposits. Furthermore, the head cleaning device comprises a first cleaning portion impregnated with polymer resin and abrasive particles, and a second cleaning portion comprising only a soft material, the second cleaning portion can remove by wiping any abrasive particles or deposits left on the magnetic head surface immediately after the abrasive cleaning action of the first cleaning member.

Abstract: In order to prevent the staining of magnetic heads of a magnetic recorder in a low humidity environment, a refrigeration device which refrigerates a magnetic tape is positioned so as to engage the magnetic tape prior to the tape engaging the magnetic heads. The refrigeration device comprises either a refrigeration post or a refrigerated semi-closed space and functions to transfer water to the magnetic tape.
