In a motor of a motor unit, a base plate includes a raised portion protruding from a surrounding portion on a side of the stator portion opposite to a rotor portion. A raised face of the raised portion is perpendicular to a central axis and is formed in an annular shape around the central axis. The raised face of the raised portion protrudes lower than a lower surface of a sticker member stuck around the raised portion to thereby close a hole portion formed around the raised portion.

A spindle motor in one inventive implementation includes a rotor hub (10) for retaining a rotor magnet (70) and a stator (80) which is faced to the radial inner side of the rotor magnet (70) with a gap interposed therebetween. A shield sheet (90) is placed between the upper side of the winding (82) of the stator (80) and the disk mounting portion (13) of the rotor hub (10) and the outer peripheral edge of the shield sheet (90) is placed radially inside of the outer peripheral edge of the core back (83) of the stator (80).

A spindle motor according to an embodiment of the invention includes a rotor hub formed of a ferromagnetic material and a rotor magnet held by the rotor hub. The rotor hub has a flange having a shield surface that faces an upper end surface of the rotor magnet via a clearance in the axial direction and formed of a ferromagnetic material. On the outside in the radial direction of an outer peripheral surface of the rotor magnet in the flange, a rim projected downward from the shield surface of the flange is formed.

Fluid-dynamic-pressure bearing furnished with a shaft, a top plate fixed to an upper portion of the shaft, a thrust plate fixed to a lower portion of the shaft, a sleeve, and a cuplike bearing housing that along its inner periphery retains the sleeve. A lubricating-fluid-filled continuous micro-gap is formed in between the shaft and the sleeve and the top plate and the sleeve. Radial bearing sections are formed in between the shaft cylindrical outer surface and the sleeve cylindrical inner surface. An upper thrust bearing section is formed in between the undersurface of the top plate and the top-edge face of the bearing housing. A lower thrust bearing section formed in between the bottom margin of the sleeve and the top margin of the thrust plate. The bearing sections are each provided with dynamic-pressure-generating grooves for inducing dynamic pressure in the lubricating fluid when the shaft or sleeve spins.

A securing surface of a housing comprises a deformation region, which deforms radially outward by a predetermined quantity during press fitting of a thrust member, and another region. The deformation region has a tapered shape that gradually reduces in diameter in the downward direction, and is receded radially inward relative to the other region of the securing surface, by an amount equivalent to the amount of outward deformation thereof during press fitting. When the thrust member is press fitted into the inner periphery of a press fitting portion of the housing, the securing surface of the housing becomes substantially straight along entire axial region L thereof.

A dynamic bearing device includes: a housing; a bearing sleeve arranged inside the housing; a shaft member rotating relative to the housing and the bearing sleeve; and a radial bearing portion supporting the shaft member radially in a non-contact manner by a dynamic pressure action of a lubricant generated in a radial bearing clearance. The housing is formed of a leadless brass whose Sn content is regulated to 0.01 wt % or less.

In spindle motors journaled on fluid-dynamic-pressure bearings, especially in such spindle motors employed in recording-disk drives in implementations that subject the drives to vibration and shock, sealing performance of a capillary seal formed between motor rotor-side and stator-side bearing surfaces, cohesiveness of oil-repellant on rotor-side/stator-side dry-area surfaces adjoining the capillary seal section, and motor inter-component adhesive strength are improved. The capillary-seal-constituting rotor-side/stator-side surface(s) are exposed to a plasma or to ultraviolet rays under predetermined conditions to improve the wettability of the surface(s) for the bearing fluid. The dry-area surface(s) are similarly irradiated so as to improve their wettability for the oil-repellant. Adhesively bonded component surfaces are likewise irradiated so as to improve their wettability for the adhesive, enhancing adhesive strength. Exposed surfaces may be constituted of a synthetic resin to enhance their wettability further, or may be made of metal, to yield a cleaning efficacy from the plasma/UV exposure.
