According to the above configuration, since the tip yoke 24 is provided,
Even if the diameter of the center yoke 21 is reduced, the magnetic field can be supplied over the entire recording length. Therefore, the coil 22 becomes smaller as the diameter of the center yoke 21 becomes smaller, and the electromagnet 25 becomes smaller.

Moreover, as shown in FIG. 2, since the length of the tip yoke 24 is set to be slightly longer than the recording length, for example, the gap is
The magnetic flux density distribution at the maximum gap of 1.5 mm does not always reach the allowable minimum magnetic flux density of, for example, 300 Gauss at both ends of the recording length as shown by the phantom line, as shown by the solid line. Both end portions and the central portion reach the allowable minimum magnetic flux density.

Further, since the wide width portions 25 are formed at both end portions of the tip yoke 24, the edge effect is remarkably reduced when the gap is the minimum gap of 0.5 mm. At both ends, the maximum allowable magnetic flux density of, for example, 600 gauss is not exceeded, and as shown by the solid line, the maximum allowable magnetic flux density is not exceeded at both ends of the recording length.

As shown in Fig.
The magnetic flux density distribution is 600 Gauss, which is smaller than the maximum allowable magnetic flux density, and the maximum allowable magnetic flux density does not exceed the maximum allowable magnetic flux density at both end portions of the recording length as shown by the phantom line.

In addition, the magnetic flux density distribution at the maximum gap of 1.5 mm has a margin to exceed the maximum allowable magnetic flux density at both ends of the recording length when the maximum allowable magnetic flux density of 300 Gauss is reached at the center of the recording length. However, since the position where the allowable minimum magnetic flux density is reached is displaced to the outside of the recording length by D, a margin can be expected accordingly.
