    Abstract: A ramp 200 has an attaching portion 221 and an arm holding portion 222. The attaching portion is molded with high polymer material so that the attaching portion has a screw hole 25 for fixing the ramp to the housing of an information recording disk apparatus by a screw. The arm holding portion is molded with high polymer material whose fiction coefficient is small, and the arm holding portion has a storing portion 27 to hold the suspension arm retracted from the recording disk and also has a guide portion 28 against which the suspension arm slides so that it is easily moved in and out of the storing portion 27. The attaching portion 221 and the arm holding portion 222 are united in one by subsequently molding the attaching portion and the arm holding portion.

    Abstract: A disk drive apparatus is constructed with a filter attached to an enclosure through a through hole formed in the enclosure. A special positioning operation is eliminated by inserting the filter into the through hole because a portion of the filter is exposed to the outside through the enclosure. The disk drive apparatus can be constructed so that the filter is supported on the enclosure. In this case, the enclosure has a chamfered portion around the circumference of the through hole; the filter has a flange corresponding to the chamfered portion; and the flange is brought into contact with the chamfered portion. The filter can be fixed to the enclosure by sticking adhesive tape on a circumference of the flange and a circumference of the chamfered portion of the enclosure. Adhesive residue is eliminated because the fixation of the filter is performed with single-coated tape.
