    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve durability on a landing zone surface and to prevent the life of a device from shortening by providing a control means moving an actuator arm toward an actuator lock when read/write operation is ended. SOLUTION: Plural bumps of a leather texture are formed on the landing zone 3 surface. A spindle motor 17 and a voice coil motor 9 rotating a hard disk 2 are controlled by a driver 19 to move the actuator arm 7. A head slider assembly 4 is loaded on the front end of the arm 7, and the rear end is attached pivotally to a frame of a hard disk device. An inside actuator lock 11 is loaded on the frame, and is engaged with the arm 7, and positions a read/write head onto the zone 3 to position it onto an outermost track of a data recording zone.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To thin a disk storage device and manufacture it easily. SOLUTION: Sliders 8, in which signal conversion heads are installed at one ends of suspensions 10, are mounted for setting up the signal conversion heads to an actuator 9 positioned at the desired place of the recording surface of a disk through the suspensions 10, and means 10e fitted to the actuator 9 are provided on the same side as the side, where signal conversion heads at the other ends of the suspensions 10 are installed. Accordingly, a disk storage device can be thinned without decreasing the strength of the suspension mounting section of the actuator. A plurality of the suspensions can be set up to the actuator at a time.

    Abstract: PURPOSE: To make a low-profile solution of a disk storage device and to facilitate the production. CONSTITUTION: In order to install a signal conversion head on an actuator 9 positioning the head at a desired position on a recording surface on a disk via a suspension 10, a slider 8, to which the signal conversion head is fitted, is fitted to one end of the suspension 10, and a means to be mounted on the actuator 9 is provided on the same side as the signal conversion head on the other end of the suspension 10 is fitted. A low-profile solution of a disk storage device is achieved without sacrificing the strength of a fitting part of the suspension. Further, plural, suspensions can be installed on a actuator at a time.
