1415167 Mounting flying heads XEROX CORP 13 Nov 1972 [15 Nov 1971] 52320/72 Heading G5R Apparatus for mounting flying heads 14, 15, 17, 18 relative to magnetic discs 12, 13 includes a radially movable carriage 19 to which are attached head-support arms 24, 25, 27, 28 by flexible portions (24b), Fig. 3 (not shown), to permit raising and lowering of the heads, which are biased towards the discs by springs 51, 52 and are moved in the opposite direction by members 38, 53-55 which are rotatable to contact arm extensions 36, 47-49 at any radial position of the carriage 19. To permit the heads to be lowered towards the discs by springs 51, 52, a solenoid 68 is energized which, via crank 71 loaded by spring 76, moves a link 61 upwardly, causing the members 38, 53 to rotate about their pivot points 38a, 38b; 53-55a, 53-55b and eventually break contact with rollers 37, 57-59 of arm extensions 36, 47-49. A dashpot 77 controls the speed of this operation. The radial positioning of carriage 19 on guide rod 40 is accomplished by a linear motor under control of a servo system including a pick-up 20 moving over a scale 22. |
