Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of suspension that is installed in signal conditioning package, uses such as the disc driver in the PC.
Background technology
Be used for that the hard disk drive (HDD) of typing and sense information comprises a support on disk that rotates or magneto-optic disk, it can be around a rotation.Support rotates around axle by a positioning motor.Support is provided with an arm (actuator arm), and one is installed in the suspension of arm end portion, comprises head that is installed in the sliding part on the suspension or the like.When the disk high-speed rotation, sliding part rises on magnetic disk surface slightly, forms air cushion thus between disk and sliding part.This suspension comprises the bottom with base plate, and the beam part that is formed by high-precision laminated spring is fixed on flexed portion on the beam part by modes such as laser bonding.Base plate is fixed on the suspension installation surface of arm.
Development along with the speed-raising of the compression that is recorded in the information on the disk and disk drive operation requires such disc driver that shorter seek time is arranged.In order to shorten seek time, the rotation of disk must be quickened.
In order to improve the needed performance of suspension, the inventor once proposed a kind of suspension of novelty, wherein, connected bottom and beam part by an articulated elements.According to the prior art, bottom, beam part and articulated elements are parts disconnected from each other, and like this, the material of needed performance and the thickness of plate can be selected respectively separately corresponding to them.
According to a kind of proposal, for example, by making articulated elements than the partly thinner spring constant that reduces articulated elements of beam.Yet like this, the beam part will be more much higher than the rigidity of articulated elements near the rigidity in the zone of articulated elements.If disc driver is vibrated, will make sliding part contact disk heavyly.Like this, vibrationproof has become a critical problem.Therefore,, be proposed in the beam part and form through hole, reduce this regional rigidity thus near in the zone of articulated elements in order to strengthen the vibrationproof performance.
Yet if through hole is formed in the zone of the close articulated elements on the beam part, owing to the influence (windage or air turbulence) of the air on magnetic disk surface to through hole, particularly in the disc driver of disk high-speed rotation, the beam part will be trembleed.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a kind of suspension, it has high vibrationproof and can not tremble.
To achieve these goals, the invention provides a kind of suspension of disc driver, it comprises a bottom; One has the beam part of flex member; One makes bottom and the interconnected articulated elements of beam part, and this articulated elements is the part that is independent of bottom, beam part and flex member; One hole on beam part; And the cover plate part of the opening of a coverage hole, this cover plate partly comprises the part of flex member, and is arranged on the surface that is fixed with articulated elements of beam part.According to the present invention, can provide high vibrationproof to suspension thus, wherein, the beam part is in light weight, and the coverage of vibration can be limited.
The hole can be formed in the zone of beam close articulated elements partly.According to the present invention, can provide high vibrationproof to suspension thus, wherein, the beam part is in light weight, and the coverage of vibration can be limited.
Articulated elements is lower than bottom and beam part aspect bendind rigidity.Therefore, when a bending load acted on the beam part, the articulated elements bending showed a given spring performance thus." near the hole of articulated elements formation " described here is such hole, and the position ratio at its place is at the near-end (near the end of articulated elements) of beam part and the more close articulated elements of mid point between the sliding part.Preferably, this hole should form like this, and the position of the center of gravity of beam part and articulated elements assembly is than the more close sliding part in the position at hole place.
In each suspension of first and second kinds of forms, the cover plate part can be formed by the not etching part in the hole on the beam part that forms by local etching.According to the present invention, the cover plate part can utilize the part of beam part to constitute, thereby can not increase number of spare parts.In addition, the cover plate part can easily form by using local etching.
In addition, the cover plate part can be formed to the prolongation that beam partly extends to form by the part of articulated elements.According to the present invention, cover plate can utilize the part of articulated elements to constitute, thereby can not increase number of spare parts.The cover plate part can be formed by the pieces of sheet that is fixed on the beam part.According to the present invention, cover plate part can be by being fixed on pieces of sheet on the beam part, easily constituting such as belt or paper tinsel.
In addition, the cover plate part can be formed by the part of flex member.According to the present invention, the cover plate part can use the part of the flex member thinner than articulated elements to form.Like this, the quantity of part can not increase.But the influence of the opening limit air disturbance by cover plate part coverage hole.
Other purpose of the present invention and advantage will appear from the following description, and partly will become clear from describe, and maybe can acquire from enforcement of the present invention.Objects and advantages of the present invention can be achieved and obtain by in particular the following means and combination.
