Conventionally, a rotary magnetic erasing head used as an erasing head for a VTR, for example, is called a flying erase head, and is capable of AC erasing a signal magnetically recorded on a magnetic tape as a magnetic recording medium for each recording track. Has become. Such a magnetic erasing head is generally a high coercive force recording medium. For example, by expanding the magnetic gap of a recording / reproducing magnetic head developed for a magnetic tape such as a metal tape, it can be applied to an erasing head. As this type of head, for example, there is JP-A-58-155513. However, in order to perform recording and reproduction with the same head, the head structure is designed to have high reproduction efficiency in addition to recording characteristics,
The head is structurally complicated and the manufacturing cost is high. However, in the magnetic erasing head, the reproducing efficiency or the pseudo-gap action at the joint portion when it is composed of two kinds of magnetic materials does not matter so much. Therefore, a head structure having a high erasing efficiency and an easy manufacturing method is mainly required.

With the structure shown in FIG. 3, a sufficient magnetic field strength can be obtained in the gap portion, and the signal recorded on the high coercive force medium such as a metal tape can be sufficiently erased. However, the distribution a of the magnetic field intensity generated from the magnetic gap of the magnetic head has the characteristics shown in FIG.
The magnetic field distribution on the relief side (the direction indicated by arrow A) in the relative movement direction of the magnetic tape is steep with respect to the position of the magnetic gap. Therefore, a phenomenon occurs in which the signal of the erasing frequency is re-recorded on the magnetic tape. As described above, the conventional magnetic head has a problem that the erasing efficiency is not sufficient.
