FLEXIBLE PRINTED CIRCUIT FOR A SPINDLE MOTOR AND A DISK DRIVE COMPRISING THE FLEXIBLE PRINTED CIRCUIT, SPECIFICALLY CORRELATED TO ELECTRICALLY CONNECTING THE SPINDLE MOTOR WITH A PCB WITHOUT USING ANOTHER CONNECTOR

摘要

PURPOSE: A flexible printed circuit for a spindle motor and a disk drive comprising the flexible printed circuit are provided to realize an integrated connector structure to electrically connect a spindle motor with a PCB without using another connector, thereby easily assembling with a simple disk drive structure. CONSTITUTION: One end of a wiring unit(171) is connected to a spindle motor(130). An adhesive portion(172) is connected to other end of the wiring unit(171), and is contacted with a surface of a base(110). Plural electrode supporting portions(173) are extended from outer edges of the adhesive portion(172), and have predetermined elastic forces. Wires(174) are disposed in the wiring unit(171) and the adhesive portion(172). Plural first electrodes(175) are disposed in the electrode supporting portions(173), respectively, and are connected to the wires(174). The plural first electrodes(175) are contacted with plural second electrodes(194) disposed on a PCB(190).
