摘要:
Disclosed is a fluid dynamic pressure bearing device rotatably supporting a shaft member by dynamic pressure of a liquid such as oil or water filling the clearance between the shaft member and a shaft member support portion, in which it is possible to maintain bearing properties of the fluid dynamic pressure bearing device for a long period of time. The fluid dynamic pressure bearing device includes: a shaft member having a columnar portion formed substantially in a columnar configuration; a shaft member support portion having a shaft portion insertion hole for accommodating the shaft member; and a dynamic pressure generating portion formed by filling a clearance defined between the shaft member and the shaft member insertion hole with a liquid, with at least one of the surface of the shaft member and the inner wall surface of the insertion hole being equipped with a dynamic pressure generating groove for collecting the liquid to generate dynamic pressure when the shaft member is rotated, in which an annular shaft member protrusion protruding radially outwards is provided on an outer peripheral surface of the columnar portion situated axially on an outer side of the dynamic pressure generating portion.

The opening of an oil container 11 for storing oil 12 is sealed airtight with a cover member 32. A one-sided-bag-shaped fluid dynamic pressure bearing 10 is seated on an O-ring 25 and fixed airtight onto the upper surface of a bearing seating 30. Inanexhaust position with the distal end portion of an injection tube 36 positioned away from an oil level, the inside of the oil container 11 is evacuated by a vacuum pump 22 through a suction/exhaust passage including a suction/exhaust through-hole 17, thus turning the inside of the one-sided-bag-shaped fluid dynamic pressure bearing (10) into a vacuum. In this state, a control device drives a moving device to raise the oil container 11 to an injection position and releases the suction/exhaust passage to the atmosphere. This causes the oil 12 to be injected into the one-sided-bag-shaped fluid dynamic pressure bearing 10 through an oil injection passage including the injection tube 36.

A thinner fluid dynamic bearing capable of stable shaft rotation, a motor including the bearing, and a recording-medium driving apparatus including the bearing are provided. Pressure-generating grooves are provided in thrust surfaces of a thrust bearing portion 39 opposite a circular plate 35 and a stopper 33 to attract a working fluid from inner and outer edges of the thrust bearing portion 39 to a radially midway portion thereof as a shaft member 16 rotates relative to a support 22. One or more through-holes 48 are provided between inner edges of annular regions of the thrust surfaces in which the pressure-generating grooves are provided and the midway portion in the radial direction. The through-holes extend through the thrust bearing portion 39 in a central-axis direction of the shaft member.

A fluid dynamic bearing includes a shaft member engaged with a circular plate extending radially outward therefrom; a support including a cylinder rotatably accommodating the shaft member, an outer surface of the support having a tapered portion toward an axial upper surface thereof opposing the circular plate; a stopper, an inner surface of the stopper having a constant diameter in an axial direction in a portion opposite to the tapered portion of the support so as to form a tapered gap with respect to an outer surface of the support located under the axial upper surface of the support; and a working fluid placed between the inner surface of the stopper and the outer surface of the support.

A hydraulic dynamic bearing has a rotor comprised of a flanged shaft having a thrust ring portion and a cylinder portion, a hub attached to the flanged shaft, and a rotor magnet attached to an inner peripheral face of a skirt portion of the hub. A stator rotatably supports the rotor and comprises a bearing sleeve to which are attached stator coils, and a stator base plate that supports the sleeve. A gap exists between confronting surfaces of the flanged shaft and the bearing sleeve, and lubricating oil is sealed in the gap. Thrust dynamic pressure generating grooves are formed in one or both faces of the thrust ring, and the grooves are in the form of a herringbone pattern having radial inner groove sections and outer groove sections. The depth of the inner groove sections is shallower than that of the outer groove sections, and the depths of both groove sections are constant. The optimum inner-to-outer groove depth ratio is 0.6 to 0.7.

[Problem] In a hydraulic dynamic bearing comprising a flanged shaft having a thrust ring portion and a cylinder portion, a single bag-like stepped sleeve, a presser ring and a lubricating oil sealed in a fine gap including a thrust gap formed between these bearing constituting members, the lubricating oil in a thrust dynamic pressure generating groove is prevented from being subjected a negative pressure in the vicinity of an inlet. [Means for Resolution] In case of a spiral pattern, the thrust dynamic pressure generating groove G2 is formed such that its depth becomes gradually deep from a side at which a flow velocity of the lubricating oil flowing through the thrust gap is low toward a side at which it is high. Further, in case of a herringbone pattern, the thrust dynamic pressure generating groove G2 is formed such that its depth becomes shallow in an inner peripheral face side than a return point R of the pattern and deep in an outer peripheral face side. An optimum groove depth ratio is 0.6 to 0.7.

A motor includes a rotor having a permanent magnet; a sleeve rotatably supporting the rotor; fluid provided in a gap between the rotor and the sleeve; a stator having a electromagnet disposed opposite to the permanent magnet to rotate the rotor relative to the stator; and a boss interposed between the sleeve and the stator. In the motor, the sleeve, the stator, and the boss are provided as separate members.
