    Abstract: @ This invention relates to a means for attaching magnetic heads to a tape recorder of the type containing a plurality of tape cassettes one on top of another within a cassette compartment section and a plurality of magnetic heads on a slidable plate corresponding individually to these tape cassettes. A plurality of supporting means are secured on the slidable plate sequentially away from the tape cassettes and the magnetic heads are secured individually on these supporting means at the different heights of and opposite to the tape cassettes such that azimuthal adjustments of the magnetic heads can be effected independently and easily.

    Abstract: An alignment testing device comprising a magnetic media with data tracks in nonstandard locations with bidirectionally progressive degrees of misalignment for testing the alignment of the transducer head in a magnetic storage device such as a floppy disk drive. The alignment testing device allows the user to determine the boundaries of track alignments that the transducer head can read, and thereby determine any discrepency between the heads actual alignment and correct alignment.

    Abstract: A drive chassis has a rotating head drum around which a magnetic tape can be looped and a magnetic head or combined head for reproducing and/or recording signals in the longitudinal track of the magnetic tape arranged between the head drum and the tape drive shaft. A holding device for the magnetic head is constructed so that, on the one hand, it can be easily mounted on the drive chassis and, on the other hand, the magnetic head can be adjusted simply in relation to the position of the magnetic tape above the drive chassis. The magnetic head (H) or combined head (H) is fastened to a carrier plate (1) which can be elastically adjusted above the drive chassis (8) and which can be elastically deflected by adjusting means in order to adjust the azimuthal position and the angle of inclination of the magnetic head (H) for the tape/head contact. Holding device for stationary magnetic heads or combined heads, in particular for video and digital audiotape recorders.

    Abstract: A magnetic head (11) positioning system operates with a lead screw stepper motor assembly and a recording or reading head. The lead screw of the lead screw stepper motor assembly extends through and coaxially with a hollow cylindrical tube (13). Two slots (20 and 21) are provided through the peripheral wall of the tube and extend from one end of the tube towards the second end. A floating nut (14) is shaped to be placed on the lead screw (12) so as to move in a first and second direction as the lead screw is moved in a first and second direction by the motor assembly. The floating nut is provided with two outwardly extending wings (24 and 25) each shaped to fit in one of the slots provided in the tube. A carriage assembly (15) is secured to the head and includes a tubular structure (26) having an inside diameter larger than the outside diameter of the slotted tube. The tubular structure also includes tow slots (30) extending from one end toward a second end of the structure. The tubular structure is placed over the slotted tube, floating nut, and lead screw with the wing of the floating nut extending through the slots and with the closed ends of the slots resting against the wings of the floating nut to maintain the head position in dependence upon the position of the lead screw. As the lead screw is moved parallel to the axis of the slotted tube, such movement is transferred to the head.

    Abstract: An apparatus for recording and/or reproducing information on a magnetic tape (70) comprises a magnetic head (10) for recording and/or reproducing information on the tape. A guide (20) is situated near the magnetic head for positioning the magnetic head relative to a main surface (71) of the tape. An actuator (30) is connected to the magnetic head and the guide to move the magnetic head relative to the guide parallel to the normal to the head face (11). The apparatus further comprises control means for driving the actuator and detection means (51) to generate a signal in response to a frictional force between the head face (11) and said main surface (71) of the tape (70). The control means are adapted to drive the actuator (30) so as to cause a movement in the reverse direction (19) of the magnetic head (10) in response to reception of said signal.

    Abstract: A magnetic head and disc tester imitates motions of the head on a hard disc drive and comprises a stationary base (22), a slide mechanism (24) which can be installed in any required position on the base (22) with respect to a center of rotation of a magnetic disc (D). The disc (D) is rotatingly supported by a spindle unit (42) fixed to the stationary base (22). A magnetic head (52) to be tested is attached to the end of an arm (16) which is pivotally supported on a slide (36) of the slide mechanism. The angular position of the longitudinal axis of the magnetic disc with respect to a tangent to a given track of magnetic disc (52), i.e., a skew angle, can be adjusted and the head can be fixed in the adjusted position. For measuring the paramaters of the head of the disc, the slide (36) is moved linearly and carries the magnetic head over the disc in a linear direction, the head being installed at a required skew angle by means of the above-mentioned angular adjustment. Thus, instead of rotary motion of the head with respect to the disc tracks, it is moved linearly, but maintains the same skew angle as on the disc drive. Although this approximation produces some tracking error, it is negligible, and the tester has a simpler construction and universal applicability.

    Abstract: A magnetic read/write head (14) is mounted on a carriage (20) having a bore (36) therein. The carriage (20) is slidable along a stationary guide rod (40) which extends into the bore (36). A lead screw (24) threads into a nut (76) which is keyed to the carriage (20) so that rotation of the lead screw (24) moves the carriage (20) along the guide rod (40). A torsion spring (52) engages the carriage (20) and provides a force to bias the carriage (20) so as to eliminate any undesired clearance between the carriage (20) and the nut (76) and between the carriage (20) and the guide rod (40). The force is applied at an angle relative to the axis of motion (48) of the carriage (20). As the carriage (20) moves, the spring (52) is deflected, causing the angle of the force to change and the amount of the force to change. The spring (52) is oriented so that the total force directed parallel to the axis of the motion (48) of the carriage (20) remains constant. The amount of the total force is predetermined to minimize vibration of the carriage (20) and head (14). The carriage (20) is guided by the guide rod (40), not the lead screw (24), so that misalignment of the lead screw (24) does not affect the positioning of the head (14). A second guide rod (42) extends into a halfbore (38) in the carriage (20) to prevent rotation of the carriage (20) about the lead screw (24).

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a magnetic head adjusting device comprising a head retainer for retaining a magnetic head, the head retainer being mounted to a carrier adapted to reciprocate toward a center of a driving shaft for driving a magnetic disc, an azimuth adjusting mechanism for varying a direction of the head retainer with respect to a rotative axis parallel to the driving shaft, and a head attitude adjusting mechanism for letting the head retainer approach to or move away from the magnetic disc and incline relative to the same plane as the magnetic disc. With this arrangement, when a position and attitude of the magnetic head are varied during or after assembling of the device, such variation may be accurately corrected.
