Abstract: A bracket for a disk drive, including: a base plate containing the disk drive; a side wall portion vertically protruded from an end portion of the base plate; and a displacement portion extended from the side wall portion and bending due to a vibration transmitted by making contact with the disk drive. Accordingly, a bracket according to the present invention has an improved buffering ability without installing a buffer. Also, the bracket can not only effectively protect a disk drive from an external impact but also be applied to an electric device such as a portable device. Also, a bracket according to another embodiment can prevent mutual interference between circuits provided on the bracket.

Abstract: A disk drive assembly including a disk drive, a bracket for containing the disk drive, and a damper for absorbing an impact transmitted to the disk drive. The damper may have a shape of a ring to encircle a corner of the disk drive and may be formed of an elastic material to buffer an impact transmitted between the disk drive and the bracket. Particularly, since the width and/or diameter of the damper may be formed with a minimized size, the damper is capable of providing sufficient buffering properties. In addition, the space occupied by the damper may further be minimized. Thus, since the space occupied by the disk drive assembly may be reduced, it is possible to favorably apply the assembly to a portable electronic device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel strain enabling inhibition of rotavirus that is known as a principal cause of acute diarrhea and enteritis in children and in the young animals of cattle, horses, pigs and monkeys, etc, and an active protein also having an anti-rotavirus activity produced from the same. The novel strain of the present invention was named as Bifidobacterium longum AR81 (KCCM-10492). The novel strain of the present invention and the active protein separated from the same can be effectively used for the production of medicine for intestinal disorders and especially for the production of baby goods.
