Abstract

See full text

A loader that loads a head onto a disk. The head is typically mounted to a flexure arm which has a rail. The rail may have a top edge. The loader has a finger which can engage the flexure arm at a location that does not make contact with the top edge of the rail. With the present invention the finger can remain adjacent to the flexure arm even after the head is loaded onto the disk. There is no requirement to retract the finger after loading the head.
