A head slider and head IC are mounted on a head suspension, the head IC being mounted on a head IC mounting surface. One or more through holes are provided on the head IC mounting surface of the head suspension and the head IC is mounted by injecting a bonding agent between the mounting surface and the head IC through the through holes. The bonding agent is evenly distributed beneath the head IC, so that the head suspension is well balanced.

In the present invention, an intermediate member having a hardness different than that of a pivot is provided. According to this structure, the pivot is in contact with the intermediate member, and rubs the intermediate member to control the sliding of the pivot. Since the intermediate member has a different hardness than the pivot, these elements can better bear the acceleration of a head suspension in high speed operation. Moreover, generation of dust can be controlled and reliability can also be improved.

A head support unit includes a head used to record information in or reproduce the information from the recording medium, a suspension that supports the head, and a lift tab that is connected to the suspension, and slides on a sliding surface of a ramp loading unit which holds the head outside the recording medium in loading the head onto the recording medium and in unloading the head from the recording medium, wherein the lift tab inclines from a connection part with the suspension relative to a surface of the recording medium, and a contact position between the lift tab and the sliding surface moves on the lift tab as the suspension moves.

The present invention has an object to provide a head suspension which can position a head accurately, an information storage apparatus with a high recording density, and a lead which contributes to implementation of the head suspension and information storage apparatus. The present invention includes either a lead having a base made of a long metal sheet on which at least one of a crease, a ridge, and a groove is provided and multiple wires installed on the base along the length of the base and connected to the head, or a lead having multiple bases made of long metal sheets, and multiple wires installed on each of the bases along the length of the bases, where the bases are bonded together.

A head supporting mechanism including a loading beam, a flexure and a head slider. The loading beam has a proximal portion, a distal portion and an intermediate portion defined between the proximal portion and the distal portion while at least partially overlapping with the head slider. A width of the intermediate portion is smaller than those of the head slider and the flexure. Accordingly, the flexure is exposed on opposite sides of the intermediate portion of the loading beam. When the head slider is attached to the flexure after the flexure has been mounted to the loading beam, a jig is disposed while bridging the intermediate portion of the loading beam to press the exposed part of the flexure. The distal portion and the intermediate portion have the same width and the same cross-sectional shape.

A magnetic head supporting mechanism includes a head positioning actuator having an arm, and a load beam connected to the arm. The load beam has a gimbal. The gimbal includes a magnetic head slider fixing portion on which a magnetic head slider having a magnetic head is mounted, a first pair of beams extending from opposite sides of the magnetic head slider fixing portion along a traverse direction of the load beam perpendicular to a longitudinal direction thereof, and a second pair of beams respectively connected to the first pair of beams and extending so as to face the opposite sides of the magnetic head slider fixing portion.

A wiring pattern having a small inductance and a small capacitance can be formed without increasing an equivalent mass of a suspension supporting a head slider in a disc apparatus. The suspension elastically supports the head slider having a head. A base portion of the suspension is mounted to an arm driven by an actuator. The head slider is mounted on a head slider mounting portion formed on an end of the suspension opposite to the base portion. A tongue portion is formed along a side of the base portion. The tongue portion uprightly protrudes from the base portion. A head IC chip is mounted on a head IC chip mounting portion formed in the tongue portion.

A medium-opposed surface of a slider body is hemisected into first and second areas by the centerline extending in the longitudinal direction of the slider body. The second area is designed to generate a positive pressure larger than that generated at the first area when a load acting on the slider body in a direction toward a recording medium decreases. The head slider of the type is allowed to enjoy the imbalance of the lift on the slider body. This imbalance can be utilized to intentionally induce increases in the roll angle and the pitch angle of the slider body. The increase in the roll and pitch angles causes disappearance of the lift and the negative pressure generated at the medium-opposed surface. The head slider can reliably be distanced from the moving surface of the recording medium solely with the assistance of the airflow acting on the medium-opposed surface.

Connecting pieces extend outward from the support plate in the opposite directions along a crossline. A flexure body is connected to the connecting pieces. A pad is fixed to the support plate at a position ahead of the crossline. A wiring pattern extends from a pad. The wiring pattern defines a first straight portion extending forward from the flexure body along a first straight line. A second straight portion extends along a second straight line intersecting with the first straight line. A curved portion connects the first straight portion to the second straight portion. The curved portion expands outward from at least one of the first and second straight lines. The support plate merely suffers from a bending at a position ahead of the imaginary crossline even if the solder generates a stress based on its shrinkage. The wiring pattern serves to absorb the stress.
