ABSTRACT:
A magnetic head positioner for a magnetic disk apparatus has a shaft, which includes a material having a prescribed coefficient of linear expansion, and is supported so as to be stationary in the magnetic disk apparatus, may be made of a stainless steel-based material. Bearings are arranged along its axial direction at a prescribed distance and fastened to the outer peripheral surface of the shaft at the inner peripheral surfaces thereof. A cylindrical sleeve, which includes a material having a different coefficient of linear expansion from that of the shaft, is fastened to the outer peripheral surfaces of the bearings at the inner peripheral surface thereof and may be made of an aluminum-based material. A magnetic head holder is arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical sleeve and provided with arms having magnetic heads. The arms, which are provided with the magnetic heads, protrude from an outer peripheral part of the magnetic head holder in a horizontal direction. A cylindrical correcting plate, which includes a material having a different coefficient of linear expansion from that of the shaft, is interposed in a prescribed part of the cylindrical sleeve and may be made of AlTiC or Al.sub.2 O.sub.3. An area of the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical sleeve excluding the upper and lower parts thereof is slightly reduced in diameter to form a gap at a prescribed area. The gap is formed to reduce contact areas between the cylindrical sleeve and the magnetic head holder.
