Abstract: The present invention is directed to a load/unload ramp assembly which is interconnectable with a base plate of a dynamic load/unload-type disk drive. The load/unload ramp assembly generally includes a load/unload ramp and at least one base plate attachment cantilever. A fastener shaft is directed past each of the base plate attachment cantilevers and into a fastener receptacle on the base plate. A fastener head simultaneously exerts a force on each of the base plate attachment cantilevers that are engaged by the head to deflect such base plate attachment cantilevers toward the base plate, to in turn dispose the load/unload ramp assembly in forcible engagement with the base plate.

Abstract: A servo writer that uses a clamping push pin is disclosed. The clamping push pin includes a first clamping member that is movable relative to a second clamping member. The first clamping member is spaced from the second clamping member such that a disk drive head positioner assembly may be positioned therebetween. The spacing between the first clamping member and second clamping member is then reduced such that the push pin clamps onto the head positioner assembly. The push pin may then be moved to change the position of the head positioner assembly as required for servo writing operations.

Abstract: Multiple balancing plugs (114) preferably have a common length and a common offset center of gravity (130) in the length dimension for providing dual plane balancing of a rotatable body (100). The rotatable body (100) includes a plurality of balancing plug holes (112a–f) for receipt of a balancing plug (114) as desired/required to address an imbalance associated with the rotatable body (100). One or more balancing plugs (114) may be disposed within the rotatable body (100) in a first orientation such that their respective centers of gravity (130) are disposed within a first plane (134). One or more balancing plugs (114) may be disposed within the rotatable body (100) in a second, opposite orientation such that their respective centers of gravity (130) are disposed within a second plane (138) that is spaced from the first plane (134).

Abstract: A head stack assembly comb (154) for maintaining the heads (44) of a head stack assembly (26) in spaced relation is disclosed. The head stack assembly comb (154) includes a comb body (158) and a latch (218). The comb body (158) engages an upper surface of an uppermost actuator arm (30a) in the head stack assembly (26). The latch (218) engages a lower surface of this same actuator arm (30a). When installing the comb (154), the comb (154) is pivoted relative to the head stack assembly (26). This brings the latch (218) into engagement with the noted actuator arm (30a) and causes the latch (218) to pivot in a first direction against a spring (214), and then in the opposite direction by the action of the spring (214) on the latch (218) to engage the latch (218) with the lower surface of the noted actuator arm (30a).

Abstract: A number of swing training assemblies are disclosed. One of the assemblies is for use in a gymnasium and includes a main support member or rope which extends between the two basketball rims and is detachably interconnected therewith. A plurality of ball suspension members or ropes are spaced along the main support member or rope and extend downwardly therefrom. A ball is detachably connected to each of the ball suspension members.
