Abstract
There is disclosed a device for displacing a video disk with respect to a reading head which includes the driving of a conductive disk by means of a video disk rotational motor. The conductive disk passes through the air gaps of two electromagnets located on either side of the displacement axis of a movable member supporting the rotational motor. By differentially energizing the electromagnets, a force is produced which provides for forward and backward movement of the complete movable member of the reader.
