Abstract

PURPOSE:To protect a mgnetic head based on an information signal by converting the variance component of the position detection signal of the magnetic head into a DC signal to compare this DC signal with the reference value, and performing said protection of the head in case the amplitude of the fluctuation component of the position detection signal shows an abnormal level. CONSTITUTION:If a servo system is oscillated due to the generation of some fault, the amplitude of a position detection signal is increased Vs as shown in a figure A. This is due to the fact that a magnetic head is vibrated by the oscillation of the servo system. The signal Vs is converted into a DC signal corresponding to an AC component which has increased its amplitude via a DC preventing circuit 2 and a rectifying circuit 4. As a level of the DC signal is high, the integration output signal VA of an integration circuit 6 has a higher level than the refernce voltage VR. As a result, a comparator 8 delivers a signal of a logic level ''H'' and an oscillation detection signal VB informs a fault of the servo system. The signal VB is applied to a protecting device. This protecting device retracts the magnetic head to the surface of a magnetic disk.

When the servo system is operating normally and the magnetic head is correctly positioned on the target track, the position detection signal Vs is constant at a predetermined DC level, and its AC component is shown in Figure 2 (N). As shown, it is relatively small.Furthermore, even if the magnetic head deviates from the target track, the position 14 detection signal VS is stable at the DC level corresponding to the position error, and there is little AC component. In a normal state, the output of the DC blocking circuit 2 is close to the 0# level, and therefore the output of the rectifier circuit 4 is also at a low level.Therefore, the amplifier OP of the integrating circuit 6 receives the reference signal as a result of inversion integration. Outputs an output signal VA of 7iIf at a lower level than the voltage VR.This integrated output signal VA is
It is input to the inverting input side of 11xg8. therefore,
The output signal vB of the comparator circuit 8 reaches the logic level 1L.

In other words, the magnetic head makes four noises due to the oscillation of the servo system. Similarly to the above, the detection signal VS is converted into a DC signal corresponding to the AC component with increased amplitude via the DC blocking circuit 2 and the rectifier circuit 4. Since this DC signal level is large, the integrated output signal VA from the integrating circuit 6 is higher than the reference voltage VR.

As a protection device, retract the magnetic head relative to the magnetic disk surface.However, if the magnetic head performs a seek operation while moving to another track, the servo system will oscillate, unlike a positioning operation. However, as the position detection signal V8 fluctuates greatly as the magnetic head moves,
There is a possibility that this fluctuation may be mistakenly detected as an oscillation state, but in that case, when the magnetic head is in the seek state, the operation of oscillation detection Q should be stopped, or the output of oscillation detection No. 11 VB should be prohibited. All you have to do is take measures such as:
