摘要： A fluid dynamic-pressure bearing includes a rotatable shaft, a hub, a fixed portion, and a lubricating liquid. The hub includes a hub thrust bearing surface extending from the shaft outwardly in a radial direction and an annular surface. The fixed portion includes a fixed-portion upper thrust bearing surface facing the hub thrust surface and a flange surface facing the annular surface. The hub thrust bearing surface, the fixed-portion upper thrust bearing surface, and the lubricating liquid arranged therebetween form together an upper thrust dynamic-pressure bearing. The annular surface and the flange surface define an annular gap therebetween. An axial dimension of the annular gap is larger than a total of an axial dimension of an upper thrust gap between the hub thrust bearing surface and the fixed-portion upper thrust bearing surface and an average depth of upper thrust dynamic-pressure generating grooves of the upper thrust dynamic-pressure bearing.

摘要： Low-profile spindle motor whose entire shaft length is utilized to configure, along an encompassing sleeve, a radial dynamic-pressure bearing section. One end of the shaft is unitary with the rotor, and a cover member closes the other end. Between the sleeve upper-end face and the rotor undersurface a thrust bearing section is configured. Micro-gaps are formed continuing between the sleeve upper-end face and the rotor undersurface; the sleeve inner-circumferential surface and the shaft outer-circumferential surface; and the cover member inner face and the shaft end face, where an axial support section is established. Oil continuously fills the micro-gaps, configuring a full-fill hydrodynamic bearing structure. Hydrodynamic pressure-generating grooves in the radial bearing section are configured either so that no axial flow, or so that a unidirectional flow that recirculates from one to the other axial end of the radial bearing section through a communicating pathway is induced in the oil.

摘要： In a spindle motor utilizing dynamic-pressure bearings having a full-fill structure, a bearing configuration that balances and sustains at or above atmospheric pressure the internal pressure of the bearing oil. Thrust and radial bearing sections are configured within oil-filled bearing clearances in between the rotor, the shaft, and a shaft-encompassing hollow bearing member. A communicating passage one end of which opens on, radially inwardly along, the thrust bearing section is formed in the bearing member. Either axial ends of the bearing clearance in between the bearing member and shaft communicate through the passage. The communicating passage enables the oil to redistribute itself within the bearing clearances. Pressure difference between the axial upper and lower ends of the oil retained in between the bearing member and the shaft is compensated through the communicating passage, preventing incidents of negative pressure within the oil and of over-lift on the rotor.

摘要： Small-size, small-height fluid dynamic-pressure bearing device that causes a low shaft loss and is less prone to troubles such as shortage and leakage of lubricating liquid. A thrust dynamic-pressure bearing is formed at an inner position and a region having a slightly-widened gap is provided outside of the thrust dynamic-pressure bearing to retain the lubricating liquid therein. Further, an oil circulating path is communicated with the region having a slightly widened gap. The gap of this region is set to be greater than the gap at the thrust dynamic-pressure bearing portion by the value of the depth of dynamic-pressure generating grooves. The region having a widened gap may be provided with rows of grooves for stirring-up lubricating oil towards the center.
