Patent number: 6172842Abstract: A housing includes a base plate and a metallic cover. The cover may be formed by deep-drawing. The housing accommodates, for example, a magnetic disk, a magnetic head, and a drive mechanism. The drive mechanism serves to displace the magnetic head with respect to the magnetic disk. When the cover is coupled to the base plate, a screw is screwed, penetrating the cover, into the tip end of the carriage axis for supporting a carriage. Vibration caused by swinging movement of the carriage is transmitted to the cover through the screw. A vibration absorber adhered to the outer surface of the cover is adapted to absorb the transmitted vibration. Noise may be suppressed in the seek operation.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 1998Date of Patent: January 9, 2001Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventors: Ichi Satoh, Shoji Samma, Toshiyuki Hachiya, Takayuki Bitoh

Patent number: 5430451Abstract: An array antenna mounted on a spacecraft in its stowed state. After the spacecraft is launched in a predetermined position or on a predetermined orbit, the array antenna is extended to a flat plate form or a curved surface form. The array antenna has a structure that a plurality of subarrays are connected by plate springs or the like. The array antenna is extended in a kite form by using cables for connecting a spacecraft body and the subarrays or is extended by using an extension pole mounted on the spacecraft body. Each subarray includes a variable phase shifter to switch a shape and a direction of a directivity beam. A feeder line, a power supply line, a control signal line and the like connect the spacecraft body and each subarray.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 1993Date of Patent: July 4, 1995Assignees: National Space Development Agency of Japan, Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Toneo Kawanishi, Yasuo Tamai, Yoshihiko Konishi, Shin-ichi Satoh, Takashi Katagi
