    摘要: A head gimbal assembly (HGA) for a disk drive unit that includes a micro-actuator, a slider and a suspension to load the slider and the micro-actuator. The micro-actuator includes a pair of actuator side arms, a PZT element extending between and connecting the actuator side arms; a rotatable plate positioned between the actuator side arms, wherein the slider is mounted on the rotatable plate; and a pair of connection elements that connect the rotatable plate to the actuator side arms, respectively. The rotatable plate rotates in a first direction when the PZT element contracts and a second direction when the PZT element expands.

    摘要: A system and method for connecting an actuator to a suspension element is disclosed. The actuator is electrically coupled using a silver paste. The silver paste is further covered by a coating application to provide structural support. A step, attached to either the actuator base or the suspension tongue, provides further structural support and maintains a gap between the actuator and the suspension element.

    摘要: A thin film piezoelectric (PZT) micro-actuator is disclosed. Two thin film pieces of PZT are couple to a slider support frame. The slider support frame has a slider support connected by a leading beam to a base. The two thin film pieces of PZT connect the slider support to the base. Applied voltage causes the thin film pieces of PZT to contract or expand, moving the slider support in relation to the base. The thin film pieces of PZT can be single or multiple layers. The thin film PZT micro-actuator can be coupled to the suspension by anisotropic conductive film, with the thin film pieces of PZT between the slider support frame and the suspension. Alternately, the thin film PZT micro-actuator can be coupled to the suspension with the thin film pieces of PZT exterior to the slider support frame and the suspension.
