HYDRODYNAMIC BEARING ASSEMBLY AND SPINDLE MOTOR INCLUDING THE SAME

摘要

The hydrodynamic bearing assembly includes: a sintered sleeve having a shaft hole formed therein such that a shaft is rotatably inserted thereinto and including at least one dynamic pressure bearing part to generate dynamic pressure in a lubricating fluid filled in a bearing clearance at the time of rotation of the shaft; and a housing provided to enclose an outer peripheral surface of the sintered sleeve, wherein a bottom surface of a dynamic pressure groove of the at least one dynamic pressure bearing part has a porosity higher than that of a protrusion surface thereof.
