ABSTRACT:
In a magnetic head drive for a magnetic tape recorder of a helical scan system, a pair of first and second longitudinal bimorph elements fixed to a support member is connected to a flexible bridge member and a magnetic head is mounted to the bridge member. A pair of first and second electric sources supply electric voltages independently to electrodes of the first and second bimorph elements. The voltages applied to the bimorphs are controlled against a deviation from a record track in a magnetic tape to keep a protrusion quantity of the magnetic head constant for automatic tracking. In a magnetic tape recorder wherein the upper and lower drums of a rotating head scanner are fixed and the magnetic head is rotated along an elliptical orbit, the two bimorphs are controlled not only against a deviation from a record track in a magnetic tape but also to a rotation angle of the magnetic head in order to keep a protrusion quantity of the magnetic head constant.
