DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a magnetic disk device with a required number of tracks.
This is about the head positioning mechanism that positions the head.

従来、この種の機構は第1図に示すように、ヘッド1を
塔載したキャリッジ2がころがり軸受3を車輪としてガ
イドレール4の上を直進するように構成されていた。
Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 1, this type of mechanism has been constructed such that a carriage 2 carrying a head 1 moves straight on a guide rail 4 using rolling bearings 3 as wheels.

駆動力はアクチュ上−夕5により与えられ、ディスク6

The driving force is given by actuator 5, and disk 6
The head 1 detects the position signal recorded on the surface of the head 1 and feeds it back.

アクチュ上−夕5の駆動力を制御して所要トラック位置
にヘッド1を位置決めしていた。
The head 1 is positioned at a desired track position by controlling the driving force of the actuator 5.

このような機構において駆動力の作用方向はキャリッジ
2の進行方向のみであり、位置決め制御は1自由度の系
において行われる。
In such a mechanism, the direction of action of the driving force is only in the direction of movement of the carriage 2, and positioning control is performed in a system with one degree of freedom.

However, the rolling bearing 3 is an elastic body having a certain value of bearing rigidity, and since the carriage 2 moves on the guide rail 4 via the spring thereof, it constitutes a vibration system with multiple degrees of freedom.

For example, if the point of application of the driving force (F in the figure) and the center of gravity of the carriage 2 (G in the figure) are shifted vertically, the driving force will generate a moment force around the center of gravity, and the carriage 2 will experience pitching vibration. Start.

Since almost no damping force is generated in the rolling bearing 3,
Such vibrations are difficult to attenuate, and with conventional positioning mechanisms of this type, it is difficult to quickly set the head 1 at a desired position, which is an obstacle to shortening positioning time and improving positioning accuracy. .

The present invention eliminates the above drawbacks by adding a damper to the carriage to quickly dampen such harmful vibrations.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged side view showing a part of the main parts in cross section showing an embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 is a head (only the carriage attachment part is shown), 3 is a rolling bearing, 11 is a carriage, 12 is a sliding surface provided on the carriage 11, 1
3 is a guide rail, 14 is a permanent magnet embedded in the guide rail 13, and 15 is a magnetic fluid.

A permanent magnet 14 is embedded in the guide rail 13 at a position facing the sliding box 12.

A narrow gap between the sliding circle 12 and the upper surface of the guide rail 13 is filled with a magnetic fluid 15.

The magnetic fluid 15 is always drawn around it by the permanent magnet 14 and does not flow out.

In this way, the positioning mechanism is such that the magnetic fluid 15 is placed on the sliding surface 12.
Since the narrow gap between the magnetic fluid 15 and the upper cylinder of the guide rail 13 is filled, when vibration occurs that repels the elastic deformation of the rolling bearing 3, the vibration causes the narrow gap filled with the magnetic fluid 15 to The gap changes and the magnetic fluid 15 is pushed out, 1

At this time, the magnetic fluid 15 generates a diaphragm film effect due to its own viscosity, and generates a damping force in accordance with the rate of change in the interval between the gaps.

Therefore, vibrations generated in the carriage 11 are quickly attenuated.

As described above, in the head positioning mechanism according to the present invention, the magnetic fluid 15 moves between the carriage (movable part) 11 and the guide rail (
Since the magnetic fluid 15 is interposed in the fixed part (fixed part) 13, shearing force acts on the magnetic fluid 15 when performing the original positioning straight movement, and the resistance in the straight movement increases by that amount, but this shear resistance is inversely proportional to the fluid film thickness. However, since the aperture film effect of the magnetic fluid 15 is inversely proportional to the cube of the fluid film thickness, the gap between the slide collapse 12 and the upper surface of the guide rule 13 is made very small.
In addition, by reducing the sliding cross-sectional area, it is possible to make the resistance during straight movement so small that it can be ignored compared to the driving force of the actuator 1, and to provide sufficient damping force to suppress vibrations occurring in the carriage 11. It is possible.

In the above embodiment, the sliding surface 12 is formed on the opposing surface of the carriage 11 and the guide rail 13, but the sliding surface 12 is not limited thereto.
It goes without saying that the effects of the present invention can be obtained by configuring a movable part such as the carriage 11 and a fixed part such as the guide rail 12 so that they face each other with an appropriately narrow gap.
