PURPOSE:To realize a head support system which can keep a steady floating amount even under the high-speed seek action by using the composite material obtained by sticking the metal spring material and the high molecular plastic film for the gimbal spring of the floating magnetic head. CONSTITUTION:Gimbal spring 3 is composed by sticking high molecular film 6 (polyimide, etc.) to both sides adjacent to metal spring material 5 and slider 1. Pawls 4a-4d of spring 3 are pressed into groove part 2 formed to slider 1. As film 6 features a large attenuation effect to the vibration, the vibration given to spring 3 from outside is never conveyed to slider 1. As a result, the magnetic head features the steady vibration property at both the contact start/stop time and the floating time. |
