According to one embodiment, a magnetic disc apparatus includes a magnetic head which reads information stored in a magnetic disc, an arm which supports the magnetic head, and a feedback controller which controls a coarse actuator to move the magnetic head above the magnetic disc by driving the arm, a fine actuator to hold a position of the magnetic head, and a feedback path which feeds back a displacement of the actuator to a target value of the coarse actuator. The feedback controller controls decoupling of a double actuator system which adds up the coarse actuator and the fine actuator.

Vibrations in a magnetic head assembly equipped with a magnetic head, caused by the effects of the flow of air arising from the high-speed rotation of a magnetic disk, can be suppressed by affixing a damping material to the magnetic head assembly. As a result, accurate positioning is possible with high reliability, the frequency of occurrence of errors during data recording and playback can be suppressed, high data transfer rates can be maintained, and high recording densities for a magnetic disk device can be realized.

A cover seal seals an opening of a housing body and encloses a cover for the opening in cooperation with the housing body. The rigidity of the cover seal is reinforced by a metallic sheet or a multiplayer synthetic resin sheet, so that vibration of the cover seal is prevented even if air stream in a seam between the housing body and cover acts on the cover seal from the behind.

Head position control is implemented in a disk drive for the case in which a disk is assembled into the disk drive after a precise track is recorded onto it using an external apparatus, which is capable of high-speed access even if there is eccentricity between a track defined by servo information and the center of rotation of the track. Two phase servo bursts consisting of servo information are recorded onto each of the servo information regions of a disk surface, in mutual alternation, the strength ratio between signals detected from these two phase servo bursts being used to determine to which side the head is displaced. By performing control so that this strength ratio is a prescribed value at each angular position, control is achieved so that the head moves along a circular path of rotation, even if there is eccentricity in the servo circular path defined by the recorded servo information with respect to the center of rotation.

A method and an apparatus for analyzing the vibration of the housing of a disk device are disclosed, in which the residual vibration of the housing can be accurately detected for protection against vibrations by determining the transfer function of the rotational acceleration of the housing. The vibration of the housing of the disk device attributable to a head actuator built into a computer or constituting a disk device housed in a locker is detected in such a manner that a random seek current is supplied to the head actuator from an external source, the transfer function of the rotational acceleration of the housing obtained from at least n acceleration sensor mounted on the housing is determined for each frequency, the spectrum of the random seek current supplied to the head actuator is multiplied by the transfer function of the housing, the resulting product is integrated twice thereby to convert the rotational acceleration into a displacement, the converted value of displacement thus obtained is multiplied by the servo follow-up error characteristic of the head actuator thereby to determine the power spectrum of the residual vibration in the frequency domain. The power spectrum is subjected to an inverse Fourier transformation thereby to detect the oscillation of the head with respect to time.

A compact card type disk drive includes a housing (21) for accommodating a disk for storing data, a disk drive for rotating the disk, a head assembly for writing and reading data to and from the disk and an electronic circuit including at least an interface circuit (39), the latter three being accommodated in the housing. A connector (42) connected to the electronic circuit is fixed to the outside portion of the housing (21). The electronic circuit preferably contains a read/write circuit (36) and a control circuit (38). The housing (21) preferably includes a lower base (22) and an upper cover (23), and a printed circuit board (14) is disposed along the inner wall of either one, or both, of the base (22) and the cover (23). The outer dimension of the plane of the disk drive is preferably about 85.6 mm.times.54 mm, and typically, the outer thickness is 5 mm. Preferably, one connector (42) is disposed on either one of the minor sides of the housing (21). The connector (42) is disposed at the substantial center of the housing in the direction of its thickness and is fixed to one of the minor sides of the housing (21) which opposes the head assembly with respect to the disk.

A rotary moving coil actuator in a disk drive selectively positions a read/write head with respect to disk medium. A carriage is pivotable about an axis and has a carriage arm for supporting the head. A pair of magnets, disposed in spaced relationship within a magnetic yoke structure, have spaced flat faces perpendicular to the axis and define a gap therebetween. A flat coil structure, comprising one or a pair of flat coils, is attached to the carriage and disposed at least in part within the gap between the opposing flat faces of the magnets so as to be movable along a stroke of movement relatively thereto. The flat coil structure in cooperation with the magnets, generates a driving force in a direction approximately parallel to a first line which is perpendicular to the axis and passes through the axis and toward the read/write head and thereby substantially perpendicular to the seek direction of the head.

A spindle motor includes a permanent magnet multipolarized in a circular direction of the permanent magnet. The permanent magnet generates magnetic fluxes in a radial direction of the spindle motor. A core assembly has core pieces, the core pieces respectively including first portions are circularly arranged and face the permanent magnet via a gap, and second portions guide magnetic fluxes in parallel with a rotation axis of the spindle motor. Windings are turned around the second portions of the core assembly and have axes of the windings extending in parallel with the rotation axis of the spindle motor. A yoke magnetically couples the core pieces with each other.

A first component defines a threaded bore. A second component is kept in contact with the first component. A clamping screw penetrates through the second component and is screwed in the threaded bore. A lubricating agent film is interposed between the threaded bore and the clamping screw. The lubricating agent film is made of a macromolecular compound having a polar end group. The lubricating agent film serves to reduce the friction between the threaded bore and the clamping screw. Generation of dust is prevented when the clamping screw is being screwed into the threaded bore. In addition, the clamping screw exhibits a larger axial force at a certain amount of a fastening torque as compared with a conventional clamping screw. A larger axial force can thus be applied to hold the second component onto the first component.
