摘要:
There is provided a disk apparatus having a clamp structure, which can fix a disk in a stable manner with a simple construction. More specifically, the disk apparatus includes a hub having a disk inserting portion having a cylindrical plane in the outer part of one end and a disk receiving portion having a flat part and being pivotably supported, a head having an inner hole through which the disk inserting portion is fitted, facing toward one face of a disk, levitating and scanning above the disk and reading a signal recorded on the disk or recording a signal on the disk, the disk being held by the disk receiving portion, and a clamp unit holding the disk with the disk receiving portion. In this case, the disk receiving portion has an inclined or declined plane. Thus, the amount and direction of deformation of the disk, which is caused by clamping, are defined, and obtaining a stable amount of head levitation independently of temperature changes can prevent the occurrence of a distortion of the disk. Therefore, a decrease in head output, for example, can be prevented, and the reliability can be improved.

The stop ring having a surface nearly vertical to the rotational center axis, which is projected at the inner periphery of the hollow cylinder of the rotor section, and the stepped surface of the fixed shaft secured on the chassis are opposed to each other with a predetermined slight clearance provided therebetween. The clearance is filled with magnetic fluid, and further, a permanent magnet is disposed on the chassis, opposing to the other surface of the stop ring.

A spindle motor and a disk drive device are provided that has a high operation efficiency of the motor, that does not leak oil, and that has an improved stability by decreasing a runout component in the direction of the rotation axis. The spindle motor includes rotor hub (20) composed of disk-like flange (201) and cylinder-shaped shaft (203); ring-shaped rotating magnet (16) fastened on one main surface of flange (201); armature (14) facing rotating magnet (16); sleeve (80) rotatably supporting shaft (203); and chassis (15) fixing armature (14) and sleeve (80). Flange (201) and shaft (203) are integrally formed with magnetic material; a protrusion is not provided between mounting surface (204) for mounting rotating magnet (16) thereon and counter-face surface (205) facing the end surface of the sleeve; and additionally mounting surface (204) and counter-face surface (205) are orthogonal to the direction of the central axis (A-A′) of shaft (203), and in a level plane; or mounting surface (204) is recessed stepwise from counter-face surface (205) toward disk mounting portion (202).
摘要:
In order to prevent lubricating oil leakage due to bubbles in a thrust dynamic pressure bearing having herringbone grooves, and to stabilize the bearing performance, and enhance the reliability and durability, auxiliary grooves deeper than pump-in type herringbone grooves for generating dynamic pressure are provided. The bearing inner periphery and bearing outer periphery are linked by a pressure gradient descending slowly, and therefore bubbles present in the bearing inner periphery can be guided to the bearing outer periphery through the auxiliary grooves, and discharged outside of the bearing from the air-liquid interface, so that lubricating oil leakage due to bubbles can be prevented.

A thrust dynamic pressure bearing with high inclination-resistant rigidity against axis runout and additionally low bearing loss torque is implemented. Herringbone grooves (131) having intermediate bends (132) are provided on rotating-side bearing surface (11) provided on the rotating-side bearing member. When rotating-side bearing surface (11) rotates in direction A (clockwise), lubricating oil generates dynamic pressure in an area centering on intermediate bend (132) along radially outer part (133) and radially inner part (134) of herringbone groove (131). As a result that groove width (G) of a dynamic pressure generating groove and width (L) of a land adjacent to the dynamic pressure generating groove holds G>L at an arbitrary radius (2) position, a thrust dynamic pressure bearing with high inclination-resistant rigidity and additionally low bearing loss torque is provided.

The disclosed is a spindle motor most suitable for magnetic disk drives, optical disk drives or the like capable of constraining undesirable cogging torques to a low level and of winding a coil regularly. In particular, the inward periphery of magnetic pole of iron core for a stator includes of an arc shaped surface concentrically to the outward periphery of rotor magnet and a pair of flat surfaces, generally perpendicular to the centerline of magnetic pole, attached to both sides of the arc shaped surface peripherally. The configuration can reduce the cogging torques without any decrease in motor efficiency.
