Each of the output-side wiring portions has a width greater than a width of the connection-side wiring portion. | 08-27-2009 |
20110035764 | CHUCKING DEVICE, BRUSHLESS MOTOR, DISK DRIVE APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE CHUCKING DEVICE - A chucking device includes a turntable fixed to a shaft having a central axis and a cone arranged axially above the turntable. An annular yoke is arranged above a sliding portion of the cone and fixed to the shaft, and a clamp magnet is fixed to the yoke through an adhesive agent. The yoke includes an upper surface having an annular recess defined in a concentric relationship with the central axis, the adhesive agent being applied on a region of the upper surface existing radially inwards of the recess. The recess includes a radial outer wall parallel to the central axis and a radial inner wall inclined radially inwards and axially upwards. The angle between the radial outer wall and a lower surface of the clamp magnet is greater than the angle between the radial inner wall and the lower surface of the clamp magnet. | 02-10-2011 |
20110119692 | BRUSHLESS MOTOR HAVING CHUCKING MECHANISM, AND DISK DRIVING DEVICE HAVING THE BRUSHLESS MOTOR - A space for accommodating therein a portion of an optical pickup mechanism is arranged below a disk loading portion of a turn table member of a chucking mechanism of the present invention. The space is arranged axially below a disk mounting surface. Since such space is provided, a recording/reproducing portion will be allowed to move closer to a brushless motor, and therefore a second lens arranged further away from the brushless motor will be allowed to move radially inward of a recording/reproducing area of an optical disk. | 05-19-2011 |
20110167436 | CHUCKING DEVICE, MOTOR, DISK DRIVE APPARATUS AND CHUCKING DEVICE MANUFACTURING METHOD - A chucking device includes a disk support unit on which a disk is placed, a resin-made turntable arranged to directly or indirectly support the disk support unit from below, a metal member including a circular plate portion closely secured to a lower surface of the turntable, and a plurality of balls rollably arranged below the disk support unit and above the circular plate portion about a center axis in a circumferential direction. The turntable includes an antiskid member, a bottom rolling surface arranged to support the balls from below through the antiskid member and a cylindrical side rolling surface positioned radially outwards of the balls. | 07-07-2011 |
20110271292 | CHUCKING DEVICE, MOTOR, DISK DRIVE APPARATUS AND CHUCKING DEVICE MANUFACTURING METHOD - In a chucking device, a rolling guide portion is arranged below an upper cover portion of a rotor holder and radially inwards of a cylinder portion of the rotor holder. This helps restrain the noises generated by the rolling movement of balls from propagating to the outside. Moreover, the turntable and the rolling guide portion are formed of a single resin member extending continuously through a through-hole defined in the rotor holder. | 11-03-2011 |
20120017229 | CHUCKING DEVICE AND BRUSHLESS MOTOR AND DISC DRIVING DEVICE IN WHICH THE CHUCKING DEVICE IS INSTALLED - A cone part in a chucking device capable of freely attaching and detaching a disc having a disc shape includes an abutting portion for abutting an inner peripheral surface of a central through hole of the disc with substantially equal forces along an entire circumference thereof and aligning the disc. The cone part is made of a resin material having a high slidability than that of a material used for the disc. | 01-19-2012 |
20120254905 | SPINDLE MOTOR AND DISK DRIVE APPARATUS - A spindle motor includes a shaft, a cone, a turntable provide with a disk support portion, a cylindrical closed-top rotor holder, a rotor magnet, a stator, and a bearing mechanism. The cone includes a disk holding surface inclined radially outward and downward. The turntable further includes a resin-made table body having a disk support portion and an annular groove portion depressed upward at a lower side of the disk support portion, a plurality of balls rotatably arranged within the annular groove portion, an annular closure portion arranged between the table body and the rotor holder to close a lower opening of the annular groove portion, and a disc-shaped portion arranged radially inward of the annular groove portion of the table body, the disc-shaped portion having an upper surface bonded to the table body by an adhesive agent and a lower surface bonded to the rotor holder by the adhesive agent. | 10-04-2012 |
