  • Low stiffness pitch adjustable suspension
    Patent number: 6697228
    Abstract: Disk drive suspension pitch static attitude is adjusted without increasing the stiffness of the suspension by defining reliefs in the laterally projecting tab continuations of the suspension metal layer in the form of full or partial gaps, notches and/or apertures that reduce mass of the tabs while retaining their functionality for twisting or bending the suspension to bring the suspension slider-supporting tongue into parallel relation with a disk surface.
