ABSTRACT:
Floppy disk transducer heads 5a, 5b are mounted by gimbal springs 6a, 6b to facing sides of a radially movable carriage 9 and a loading arm 7 pivotally mounted to the carriage and biased theretowards by a flexible spring blade 8. An abutment stop 18 upstanding from the carriage engages a lower surface of the loading arm to prevent any further pivoting thereof towards the carriage beyond a position whereat the heads lightly pinch the opposite disk surfaces with a desired tracking force exclusively determined by the gimbal springs.
