Abstract
The fluid dynamic bearing assembly of the present invention comprises a shaft; And a thrust plate coupled to the shaft, wherein the shaft or the thrust plate may be filled with an adhesive filling space such that an adhesive for joining the shaft and the thrust plate may be filled.
Description
The present invention relates to a fluid dynamic bearing assembly and a spindle motor, and more particularly, to a fluid dynamic bearing assembly and a spindle motor with increased coupling force between the shaft and the thrust plate.
The spindle motor for HDD rotates at high speed. Therefore, vibration may occur in the shaft and the thrust plate of the rotating body, and cracks or gaps may occur in the bonding portion (or the joint surface) of the shaft and the thrust plate.
These gaps become the outflow passages of the fluid generating dynamic pressure on the shaft and the thrust plate, thus causing a problem that the leakage of the fluid and the function of the dynamic fluid bearing significantly degrades.
In recent years, in order to solve such a problem, the method of filling a bonding agent in the joint surface of a shaft and thrust plate was proposed. However, since the coupling portion between the shaft and the thrust plate is in contact with the surface, it is difficult to secure a space for filling the sufficient adhesive between the shaft and the thrust plate.
Accordingly, there is a strong demand for the development of a fluid dynamic bearing assembly or spindle motor having a structure capable of filling a sufficient adhesive to the joint surface between the shaft and the thrust plate.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object thereof is to provide a fluid dynamic bearing assembly and a spindle motor capable of improving the bonding force between the shaft and the thrust plate by forming an adhesive filling space between the shaft and the thrust plate. .
Fluid dynamic bearing assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention for achieving the above object is a shaft; And a thrust plate coupled to the shaft, wherein the shaft or the thrust plate may be filled with an adhesive filling space such that an adhesive for joining the shaft and the thrust plate may be filled.
In the adhesive filling space of the hydrodynamic bearing according to an embodiment of the present invention, the adhesive filling space may be formed in a groove shape on the thrust plate.
The thrust plate of the hydrodynamic bearing according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a protrusion protruding toward the shaft, and the shaft may include a groove corresponding to the protrusion.
In the hydrodynamic bearing according to an embodiment of the present invention, the volume of the groove may be larger than the volume of the protrusion so that the adhesive filling space is formed between the groove and the protrusion fitted to the groove.
The hydrodynamic bearing according to an embodiment of the present invention may be curved so that the joining surface of the thrust plate may be in line contact with the joining surface of the shaft.
The shaft of the hydrodynamic bearing according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a step for supporting the thrust plate.
Adhesive filling space of the hydrodynamic bearing according to an embodiment of the present invention may be formed by a plurality of fine grooves formed in the joint surface of the shaft or the joint surface of the thrust plate.
In the hydrodynamic bearing according to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of first fine grooves and second fine grooves are formed on the joint surface of the shaft and the thrust plate, and the first fine groove and the second fine groove are formed. May be arranged to be offset from each other.
Spindle motor according to an embodiment of the present invention for achieving the above object includes a shaft, a thrust plate coupled to the shaft, the shaft or the thrust plate is filled with an adhesive for coupling the shaft and the thrust plate And a fluid dynamic bearing assembly in which an adhesive filling space is formed.
The present invention provides a space for the adhesive to be filled in the joint surface of the shaft and the thrust plate, it is possible to improve the coupling force of the shaft and the thrust plate.
Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to effectively prevent and suppress separation between the shaft and the thrust plate due to the high speed rotation of the shaft in the spindle motor and the leakage of the fluid.
