20090180021 | METHOD FOR ADJUSTING POSITION OF IMAGE SENSOR, METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING A CAMERA MODULE, AND CAMERA MODULE - A lens unit and a sensor unit are held by a lens holding mechanism and a sensor shift mechanism. As the sensor unit is moved in a Z axis direction on a second slide stage, a chart image is captured with an image sensor through a taking lens so as to obtain in-focus coordinate values in at least five imaging positions on an imaging surface. An approximate imaging plane is calculated from the relative position of plural evaluation points which are defined by transforming the in-focus coordinate value of each imaging position in a three dimensional coordinate system. The second slide stage and a biaxial rotation stage adjust the position and tilt of the sensor unit so that the imaging surface overlaps with the approximate imaging plane. | 07-16-2009 |

20090284870 | HEAD SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY AND STORAGE MEDIUM DRIVE - An arm has one end coupled to a head suspension and the other end defining a domed surface in a head suspension assembly. The domed surface establishes point contact against the side surface of a head slider. The arm is designed to restrain the direction of application of a force along an imaginary plane including the back surface of the head slider. A piezoelectric element is bonded to the arm at a position between the one end and the other end of the arm. The head suspension assembly allows the arm to curve in response to expansion/shrinkage of the piezoelectric element. A driving force is applied from the arm to the head slider based on the curvature of the arm. Since point contact is established between the arm and the side surface of the head slider, the curvature of the arm cannot be restrained. | 11-19-2009 |
