Abstract: PURPOSE: To obtain a disk drive enclosure structure where a special form whose draft is zero is used in a die casting process. CONSTITUTION: A data storage disk drive 10 includes a spindle, which supports plural disks on the surface of a magnetic disk which are rotated around a common shaft and form a spindle assembly 18, and a rotary actuator which supports plural magnetic transducers on the surface of each disk. The disk drive includes a die cast disk drive enclosure structure 12 including the surface to which a spindle motor shaft and an actuator bearing shaft are set and where a predeterminate draft is zero. The enclosure structure includes a base cast member 14, which holds an electric connector arranged on the outside, and a cover cast member 16. The disk drive includes an electric passage from a flexible circuit to a comb-shaped part of the actuator. The disk drive includes a tubular chemical air filter arranged in a groove for diffusion integrated with the cover as one body.

Abstract: A data storage disk drive is provided with a spindle 42 which supports a plurality of disks 110 for rotation about a common axis, and a rotary actuator 20 which supports magnetic transducers for movement in unison across respective disk surfaces. The disk drive includes a disk drive enclosure having die-cast generated predetermined zero draft registration surfaces 30 - 40 for mounting the spindle motor shaft 42 and the actuator bearing shaft 44 and possibly magnet assemblies 46, 48. The enclosure includes a base casting 14 and a cover casting 16, each casting including structure (figs. 7 - 9) for locating and retaining electrical connectors used for connecting to a planar electronics card (90) located outside the drive enclosure. The disk drive includes an effective and easily manufacturable electrical path from a flex circuit to an actuator comb (figs. 11 - 13). The disk drive also includes a tubular, at least partly electrostatic, chemical breather filter (56) arranged with integral housing and diffusion channels (58) formed in the cover casting (figs. 14 - 24).
