发明名称 Disk drive with secondary VCM actuator
摘要 An active mount plate having a secondary electromagnetic (voice coil motor, VCM) actuator controls the fine positioning of a magnetic read/write head relative to a magnetic disk. The active mount plate is a laminate structure comprising spring layer(s) and magnet-carrier layer(s). A spring connects a fixed part controlled by a primary VCM to a movable part for mounting top and bottom suspensions and slider/head assemblies. In one embodiment, a coil mounted on a steel coil carrier is sandwiched between permanent magnets mounted on polycarbonate spring supports. The permanent magnets are fixed, while the coil is attached to the movable part. In another embodiment, a movable permanent magnet mounted on a spring is sandwiched between top and bottom fixed coils. The centers of mass of the suspension/slider/head assemblies coincide with the attachment points of the suspensions, such that the primary and secondary actuators act independently. The laminate layers can be easily made by extrusion, molding or die-cutting.
