LINEAP ACTUATOR USING A COMPOUND PARALLEL BENDABLE ELEMENT SUSPENSION SYSTEM Abstract An apparatus for the linear translation of read/write heads in a data recording system is disclosed herein. The apparatus comprises a com- pound parallel bending element suspension with driving means connected thereto. The compound parallel suspension comprises two sets of cantile- vered bendable elements wherein one set of said elements is attached to a movable connecting means to connect said elements together and the other end of said elements is attached to a non-movable support post. The other set of said elements is attached in common to said connecting means and cantileverly extended therefrom and matingly con- nected to said read/write head assembly and drive means. The drive means can be any of a number conventional stepping and voice coil motor configu- rations including but not limited to friction drives, taut band drives, rack and pinion drives.
