摘要： A method of designing an improved bearing system is provided. In one embodiment, the method for designing a fluid dynamic bearing system includes determining a first stability ratio for a first journal bearing configuration. The method further includes determining a second stability ratio for a second journal bearing configuration. In one embodiment, the first configuration has two sub-journal bearings and the second configuration has three sub-journal bearings. The two stability ratios may then be compared to determine whether adding a sub-journal increases the stability ratio of the bearing system.

摘要： A hub and shaft are provided which are mounted for relative rotation by providing two conical bearings spaced apart along the shaft, and a bearing seat facing each conical bearing. Fluid is maintained in the gap between each cone and the facing bearing seat, supporting the cone and seat for relative rotation. The outer surface of the bearing seat is insulated from the remainder of the motor by a thermal insulator which extends at least part way along the outer surface of the seats. This insulator is effective at keeping the bearings warm even in a relatively low temperature environment in which the motor may be used. The insulator may comprise a cylindrical ceramic or similar low thermal conductivity material extending at least part way along the axial distance outside of the bearing cones. Alternatively, an air space may be defined in the outer surface of the bearing seat, extending at least part way between the bearing cones.

摘要： A method and apparatus for a conical bearing is provided having a seal shield having an angle supported from the hub or sleeve which surrounds the shaft, and extending at an angle toward the outer surface of the shaft and spaced slightly away from the upper angular surface of the cone. As the cone and seal shield rotate relative to one another, fluid is drawn toward the lower inner region of the reservoir. However, due to shock or the like, some fluid may reach the radial gap between the end of the shield and the outer surface of the shaft, therefore, a ring is either incorporated into the upper end of the cone or pressed against the axial outer end of the cone, defining an axial gap which is smaller than the radial gap. In a preferred form of the invention, the ratio is about 1:3. When oil is introduced to either of the two gaps (typically by shock), it transfers or typically comes to rest in the axial gap, since the capillary attractive force increases as the gap size decreases; therefore, with the axial gap being smaller than the radial gap the oil will tend to transfer to the axial gap. As the seal is spun up as the shield and cone rotate relative to one another, centrifugal force acting on the oil in the axial gap transfers the oil radially away from the radial gap and into the reservoir defined between the shield and the cone. This transfer typically happens in two stages. First the oil in the radial gap is transferred into the axial gap, typically in the first few seconds of operation. The oil remaining in the axial gap then transfers into the reservoir volume due to centrifugal pumping.

摘要： A rotating hub and fixed spindle assembly with first and second fluid dynamic journal bearings and first and second fluid dynamic thrust bearings for a disc drive memory system has a pump seal and a radial ring seal at a first axial terminus for lubricant containment, and a capillary seal and a labyrinth seal at a second axial terminus for lubricant containment and storage. Lubricant fluid pressure differences between first and second seals are minimized through one or more lubricant fluid communicating channels in the hub assembly, in order to minimize lubricant fluid loss through a seal. Lubricant fluid can also be purged of any air bubbles by lubricant fluid circulation through the channel.
