Abstract:
A magnetic head is disclosed having an inner magnetic core and an outer magnetic core that is magnetically spaced about the inner core so as to form a three transducer gap structure. A flux sensing means is linked solely with the inner core. The fringing fields under the two outer transducer gaps have the same direction and are of smaller magnitude and in the opposite direction than the fringing field under the central transducer gap. The composite fringing field contributed by this structure results in a narrow pulse width and is useful in high-resolution high-recording density systems.
Abstract:
A flying magnetic head assembly includes a head suspension formed with spaced resilient sections for providing opposing angular motions, so that the head slider mounted to the suspension maintains a parallel relation to the surface of a magnetic medium, as the suspension and slider are moved aerodynamically into flying transducing relation with the medium.

Abstract:
A magnetic head assembly is disclosed for transducing information upon a relatively moving magnetic recording surface while flying thereover and that starts and stops in contact with the recording surface. The assembly comprises a magnetic slider body including three downwardly depending longitudinal rails that are laterally spaced apart, the bottom surfaces of the two outside rails forming an air bearing surface, and a magnetic core longitudinally aligned with the center rail so as to define a transducing gap. The transducing gap is located at the roll axis of the assembly such that the air bearing developed during relative movement maintains the gap at a substantially constant distance from the recording surface even during rolling motion of the assembly.
