Disk file actuator with combined carriage rail and isolator mount for drive magnet

摘要

An apparatus is disclosed for actuating the read-write heads of a disk file in which a plurality of support rails having resilient bushings at either end support on their central portions a carriage for the read-write heads and on their resilient bushings the support structure for the magnets which drive the carriage during operation. Reaction forces arising in the magnets are thereby isolated from the support rails and the frame.
