Sliding-type magnetic head for magnetooptical recording

摘要

A magnetic head for magnetooptically recording information on a magnetooptical recording medium in sliding contact therewith has a head body (22) having a sliding sole (29) for sliding contact with a magnetooptical recording medium (1), a leaf spring (23), the head body (22) being supported by the leaf spring (23), and a support member (24), the leaf spring (23) having an end fixed to the support member (24). The leaf spring (23) comprises a first spring system (53) joined to the support member (24), a second spring system (55) extending from the first spring system (53), and a third spring system (56) extending from a distal end of the second spring system (55) toward the support member (24), the head body (22) being supported by the third spring system (56). The support member (24) has a stopper (72) which holds the distal end of the second spring system (55) in a position to store a predetermined amount of recovery energy in the leaf spring (23).
