Abstract

Abstract The head (100) used for a magnetic reproducing apparatus is structured by laminating 2 magneto-resistive heads (100a,101b), at least with the position of 2 magneto-resistive elements (123a,123b) substantially shifted each other for lamination and also enabling a plurality of track formats to be conformed, thus making it possible to assure stable outputs up to a low frequency range.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 71 words
A lamination type magneto-resistive head comprising: a combination type magneto-resistive head formed by laminating at least two magneto-resistive heads each of which has at least first and second gaps, a magneto-resistive element arranged in the vicinity of said second gap, and bias magnetic field applying means for applying a bias magnetic field to said magneto-resistive element, said two magneto-resistive heads having respective first magnetic layers which substantially face with each other.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 25 words
A lamination type magneto-resistive head of Claim 1, wherein the first magnetic layers of said two magneto-resistive heads are structured at least partially in common.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 79 words
A multi-channel lamination type magneto-resistive head comprising: a lamination type multi-channel magneto-resistive head formed by laminating two multi-channel magneto-resistive heads on each of which at least first and second gaps, a magneto-resistive element arranged in the vicinity of said second gap, and bias magnetic field applying means for applying a bias magnetic field to said magneto-resistive element are arranged in a track width direction, said multi-channel magneto-resistive heads having respective first magnetic layers which substantially face to each other.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
A multi-channel lamination type magneto-resistive head of Claim 3, wherein the first magnetic layers of said two multi-channel magneto-resistive heads are structured at least partially in common.
