The damping device may have first and second ends and an intermediate portion between the first and second ends. The damping device may have a generally longitudinal extension with an elevation in the direction of the top element in the intermediate portion. The elevation may have a substantially triangular V-shape when the damping device is unloaded. A system in accordance with the principles of the present invention including a system cabinet, a plurality of carriers mounted in the system cabinet for receiving hard disk drives, and a plurality of damping devices according to the invention mounted between the carriers and the system cabinet. A method of making a damping device including laminating a viscoelastic element between a top element and a bottom element and providing the damping device with a shape by which the damping device exerts significant shear displacement across the viscoelastic element upon deflecting.

    摘要: The present invention is a system for direct docking of a storage device/carrier to a back plane of a support frame. The system includes a storage device/carrier including guidance tracks. Guidance rails are connected to the support frame, engage the guidance tracks respectively and guide and support the storage device/carrier into a mating engagement with a connector on a backplane of the support frame. Each guidance rail includes at least one spring element which raises the storage device/carrier away from the support frame as it is inserted thereinto. Further, the storage device/carrier includes opposed, outwardly extending spring elements which bear against the support frame. In operation, the opposed spring elements on the storage device/carrier are compressed as the storage device/carrier is inserted onto the guidance rails and bias the storage device/carrier against the support frame. As the storage device carrier engages with a connector, a reduced cross section region of the guidance tracks engage the sides of the guidance rails, thereby reducing slack between the guidance tracks and the guidance rails.

    摘要: An enclosure for storage devices having at least one mounting surface and a viscoelastic layer disposed between a first layer and a second layer of the mounting surface. A receiver secured to the mounting surface within the enclosure receives a storage device carrier that retains a disk drive and positions the storage device carrier within the enclosure. Clip-on damped springs, coupled to the storage device carrier, guide the storage device carrier through the receiver and couple the storage device carrier to the mounting surface(s). A bezel of the storage device carrier is configured to receive a key in one of a plurality of key positions, with each key position corresponding to a particular disk drive/enclosure chassis interface.

    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for reducing rotational vibration transmission within a data storage system. A storage device apparatus comprises a carrier having opposing first and second side plates. A support point may be disposed within the first side plate at about a longitudinal center region of the carrier. The support point is configured to contact an enclosure that mounts a plurality of carriers and is the sole support point in the first side plate. Preferably, the support point is positioned such that minimal rotational vibration is transmitted within the data storage system once the carrier is placed in an enclosure housing a plurality of carriers. A second support point may be disposed in the second side plate.
