US 2007/0177290 A1 · Magnetic transferring apparatus

Abstract

A magnetic transferring apparatus allows attachment of a first magnet to a first holder. A second magnet is attached to a second holder. The first and second holders are located in a space between first and second magnets. A magnetic disk and a master member are located in a space between the first and second holders. The magnetic attraction is generated between the first and second magnets. The magnetic attraction serves to bring the first and second holders closer to each other, so that magnetic pieces of the master member is brought in a close contact with the magnetic disk between the first and second holders. The magnetic flux runs between the first and second based on the contact between the magnetic pieces and the magnetic disk. A servo pattern can in this manner be established in the magnetic disk.

Dependent claims

A magnetic transferring apparatus comprising:

a first holding member designed to hold at least a magnetic disk;
a master member including a magnetic piece superposed on a surface of the magnetic disk;
a second holding member designed to hold the master member and the magnetic disk against the first holding member based on a movement relative to the first holding member;
a first magnet attached to the first holding member;
and
a second magnet attached to the second holding member, said second magnet designed to hold the first and second holding members against the first magnet based on a magnetic reaction between the first and second magnets.
