(Conventional configuration and its problems) In a helical scan type VTR, one frame is recorded using two tracks using magnetic heads with different azimuths. Therefore, video signal recording is synchronized using a vertical simultaneous signal, and one control signal and video signal are recorded per frame on the magnetic tape. During playback, synchronization is performed using the control signal, and the head is at the same azimuth as the recording head. A noise-free reproduced image is obtained by accurately tracing the recording track with the head.

However, during special playback such as stationary, forward/reverse, low speed, high speed, etc., the traveling locus of the playback head is different from the recording track, so noise bars appear on the screen when crossing from one track to another.

Recently, VTRs have been released that have increased the number of heads and can provide a clear screen with no noise even during special playback. Noise appears on the screen during playback. Furthermore, since the tape is fed intermittently, tape speed control is complicated.

On the other hand, the playback head is mounted on a piezoelectric drive element having a structure in which piezoelectric ceramic plates are bonded together, and the drive element has a function determined by the special playback mode so that the head can trace the recording track during special playback. There are commercially available VTRs that apply an electric field corresponding to the deviation of the playback head from the trap and change the height of the head so that it is always above the track to obtain a noise-free playback screen. A feature of this VTR is that the playback speed is continuously variable.

However, in conventional VTRs of this type, it is difficult to attach the drive element to the rotating cylinder, and because the piezoelectric ceramic itself is fixed in a way that sandwiches it, the tip position of the drive element may be unstable due to unstable installation.
In other words, the positional stability of the head deteriorated, making it difficult to control the position of the head.

1b is a thin piezoelectric ceramic plate with an electrode attached to its main surface, a circular opening in the center, and trapezoidal parts on both sides that become narrower toward the tip, each polarized in the thickness direction so that the polarization direction is 2 is a metal thin plate having a circular opening with a smaller diameter than the opening diameter of the piezoelectric ceramic thin plates 1a and 1b, and the piezoelectric ceramic thin plates 1 are formed on both sides of the metal thin plate 2.
A and 1b are pasted together so that the centers of both circular openings are the same to form a bonded piezoelectric drive element 3. 4a, 4b, and 4c are electrode lead wires, and when a voltage is applied from the electrode lead wires 4a, 4b or 4a, 4c, the tip of the trapezoidal portion of the driving element 3 is displaced. In addition, since the tip of the drive element is trapezoidal, it is possible to obtain a displacement similar to that of a trapezoid with one end fixed and one end free to deflect. It is easier to bend than a disk-shaped one, and the same displacement as the conventional one can be obtained with less driving power.

The arrow in the figure indicates the thin metal plate 2 when voltage is applied.
This is the direction of displacement of the trapezoidal part of the two magnetic heads 5.
a and 5b can be moved independently. When driving two magnetic heads separately, in order to prevent the displacement of one magnetic head from affecting the other, the first
As shown in the white area in the figure, the electrode on the opposite side of the piezoelectric ceramic thin plate to the side to be bonded to the metal thin plate is divided by a line passing through the center of the circular opening at right angles to the line connecting the mounted magnetic head. It's good to do that.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the present invention employs a laminated piezoelectric drive element having a circular opening in the center as the drive element of the head, and only the metal plate portion on the inner circumference of the drive element is used. Because the trapezoidal tip is fixed circumferentially, the positional stability of the trapezoidal tip is good, and it is not only easy to attach to the rotating cylinder, but also tapers toward the tip where the magnetic head is attached. Since the drive element is formed in a trapezoidal shape, it has the advantage that the magnetic head can be easily changed.
