The hydrodynamic bearing device has a sleeve composed of a sintered material and having a compression-absorbing space inside the sleeve, the sleeve having a bearing hole in the center thereof; a shaft rotatably inserted into the bearing hole; a bearing portion formed between the bearing hole and the shaft; a hydrodynamic groove formed on at least one of the internal peripheral surface of the bearing hole and the external peripheral surface of the shaft; a concavity having one or more steps and formed to one end of the sleeve in the axial direction; a convexity formed to the other end of the sleeve in the axial direction, the convexity having a shape similar to the concavity; and a lubricating fluid filled in the gap of the bearing portion. The hydrodynamic bearing device has a readily obtainable predetermined shape precision, the internal density of the sintered material is made uniform, and lubricating fluid therein does not leak from the surface.

A hydrodynamic bearing having a high performance and a long life and a manufacturing method for the same are provided by forming hydrodynamic grooves to have a sufficient depth with a high accuracy, and sealing remaining pores on a bearing surface. A shaft is inserted into a bearing hole of a sleeve so as to be relatively rotatable. The bearing hole has a bearing surface having hydrodynamic grooves. The sleeve is formed by: forming metal powder to have a hollow cylindrical shape, sintering the metal powder; inserting a core rod in a pattern having a tapered surface into a bore of the sintered metal material; forming an inner surface having hydrodynamic grooves by pressing the sintered metal material from upper, lower and outer peripheral direction; inserting a core rod having a wide diameter portion and a narrow diameter portion into the bore of the sintered metal material to form the bearing bore surface of a hydrodynamic groove with the small diameter portion and to form the sleeve inner surface with the wide diameter portion at the same time; and removing the core rod from bore of the sintered metal material to have the inner periphery formed as such as the bearing inner surface and a large diameter portion as a lubricating fluid reservoir. Thus, grooves can be processed with a high accuracy.

To generate the desired dynamic pressure with an inexpensive structure. A hydrodynamic bearing device comprises a sleeve 1, a shaft 2, and oil 100. With the sleeve 1, a stepped portion 1b provided at one end and an inner peripheral face 1e extending linearly in the axial direction and continuously with the stepped portion 1b are formed by a working method that involves the use of a metal mold. The shaft 2 is inserted so as to be capable of relative rotation in the inner peripheral face 1e of the sleeve 1. The oil 100 fills the space formed between the inner peripheral face 1e of the sleeve 1 and the outer peripheral face 2a of the shaft 2. Dynamic pressure generation grooves 9a and 9b, which open in the axial direction at at least one end in the axial direction of the inner peripheral face 1e and are continuous in the axial direction from one end, are formed in the inner peripheral face 1e.
摘要:
A spindle motor including a rotor hub which is rotationally driven by a magnetic action of a rotational magnetic field generated when a current is applied to a wire wound around teeth of a stator core and a magnetic field of a magnet provided on a rotor. Herein, the stator core formed by laminating magnetic steel plates is mounted to an outer periphery of a supporting part of a rotation support shaft of the rotor hub, and the supporting part is made of sintered metal containing a ferromagnetic material. This spindle motor can suppress generation of vibration and noise even when it is reduced in size.

A hydrodynamic bearing device including a sleeve (1), a shaft (2), and oil (100). With respect to the sleeve (1), a stepped portion (1b) provided at one end and an inner peripheral face (1e) extending linearly in the axial direction and continuously with the stepped portion (1b) are formed by a working method that involves the use of a metal mold. The shaft (2) is inserted so as to be capable of relative rotation with respect to the inner peripheral face (1e) of the sleeve (1). The oil fills the space formed between the inner peripheral face of the sleeve and the outer peripheral face of the shaft. Dynamic pressure generation grooves (9a and 9b), which open in the axial direction at at least one end in the axial direction of the inner peripheral face (1e) and are continuous in the axial direction from one end, are formed in the inner peripheral face.

A hydrodynamic bearing device comprises a sleeve composed of a sintered member, a shaft that is inserted in a state of being capable of relative rotation into a bearing hole provided to the sleeve, and a hydrodynamic groove formed in the outer peripheral surface of the shaft and/or the inner peripheral surface of the sleeve. The sleeve has a surface porosity of 1.5% or less, and the ridge width is at least 0.10 mm.
摘要:
A bearing stiffness of a sintered metal sleeve is prevented from lowering. A sleeve includes an inner section formed of metal powder for sintering and a resin for impregnation, and a surface deformation section which covers a surface of the inner section and is formed by shot blast process. Since the surface deformation section is formed by the shot blast process, the number of pores formed between the metal powder for sintering near the surface can be reduced. In this way, a supporting pressure at a bearing portion can be prevented from being released out through the pores, and the bearing stiffness can be prevented from lowering.
