<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an information reader which can increase a degree of freedom of the design and appropriately reading a magnetic information recorded on an information recording medium. <P>SOLUTION: The information reader includes: a medium passage 3 through which the information recording medium having the magnetic information recorded passes; a magnetic head 5 which is brought into contact with the information recording medium passing through the medium passage 3 and reads the magnetic information recorded on the information recording medium; guide sections 11f, 12c for guiding the information recording medium so that a force acts on the information recording medium and the magnetic head 5 to push each other when the information recording medium and the magnetic head 5 are brought into contact with each other; and an energizing mechanism 20 for energizing the magnetic head 5 in the direction in which the information recording medium and the magnetic head 5 are brought into contact with each other. The guide sections 11f, 12c are not arranged at a position facing a magnetic gap formed at a tip end of the magnetic head 5 and are arranged closer to the upstream side than the magnetic gap in a passing direction of the magnetic recording medium. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT</p> |
