Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate positional deviation of a magnetic head and improve interchangeability of the magnetic medium and reliability of data by providing a part in which positioning signals of magnetic head are written in the magnetic medium. CONSTITUTION:When reading data in a data track 3 or writing data in it, track number of the data track 3 is set in a magnetic head position controlling circuit 9, and a magnetic head 5 is shifted to the position of the data track 3 by a magnetic head driving circuit 8. When the magnetic head 5 is in the side of a magnetic track position adjusting signal writing track 2 due to the history of the magnetic medium, signals of magnetic head position adjusting signal writing tracks 2, 4 are reproduced by magnetic heard position detecting heads on both ends of the magnetic head, and applied to a signal level comparator circuit 7. The magnetic head 5 is shifted to the track 4 side by the magnetic head driving circuit 8 according to the output signal, and the head is positioned at the center of the data track 3.

Conventionally, in a magnetic recording/reproducing device with a small storage capacity, positioning of a magnetic head has been performed only by a magnetic head drive device. In addition, in terms of accuracy, a data eraser was installed at both ends of the magnetic head (data read/write head) to erase areas where no data was recorded in the track direction, allowing for margin against data reading errors due to positional deviation of the magnetic head. However, no consideration was given to the positioning of the magnetic head based on the position of data recorded on the magnetic medium.

An object of the present invention is to eliminate misalignment of the magnetic head by providing a portion on the magnetic medium in which a magnetic head positioning signal is written in a system in which a magnetic head and a magnetic medium are in close contact with each other to record and reproduce data. The goal is to improve compatibility and data reliability.

Conventional magnetic head positioning was determined by a magnetic head drive device, so the data recording position depended only on the magnetic head position of the magnetic recording/reproducing device where the data was first written on the magnetic medium, and When this magnetic medium is installed in a recording/reproducing apparatus, due to variations between magnetic recording/reproducing apparatuses, the position where data is written and the position of the magnetic head from which the data is read may deviate. If this deviation is large, erroneous data reading occurs, and no matter how many times the data is read, the magnetic head remains in positional deviation and cannot be corrected.

Therefore, in the present invention, attention has been focused on the point that if the position of the magnetic head itself is corrected according to the data position of the magnetic medium on which data is recorded, data reading #A can be eliminated.
