Head suspension having a displacement limiter

摘要

A suspension including a load beam, a flex gimbal, and a displacement limiter. The load beam includes a distal end having a dimple extending downwardly therefrom and an aperture. The flex gimbal includes a base dielectric layer and a plurality of electrical conductors coupled to the dielectric layer. The dielectric layer includes a top side that is attached to a bottom side load beam at a first location. The displacement limiter is attached to the dielectric layer and includes a limiter member having a first portion extending through the aperture of the load beam and a second portion extending over a top surface of the load beam. Displacement of the flex gimbal relative to the load beam is limited by the second limiter portion.
