CARRIAGE LOADING ARM ASSEMBLY HAVING TWO MAGNETIC TRANSDUCERS FOR A DOUBLE SIDED FLOPPY DISC ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE This invention relates to an apparatus for supporting two magnetic transducers on both sides of a magnetic disc. Prior art apparatuses have either failed to keep both transducers in contact with the disc or have been subject to high rates of wear. The apparatus of the present invention includes a carriage having a first transducer coupled at one end through a differential torsion spring support which supports the first transducer against one side of the media in a semi-compliant relationship about the axes which are radial and normal with respect to the disc, and in a fully compliant relationship with low flexure stiffness about the third axis which is circumferential with respect to the media. A second transducer is supported on the opposition side of the disc through a gimbal support, which supports the second transducer in a fully compliant relationship with low flexure stiffness in all three axes.
