Abstract: An output system includes a terminal device, an image-forming apparatus, and a server device. The terminal device includes an acquirer that acquires content from the server device, a generator that generates job data including a setting for outputting the content based on the acquired content, a transmitter that transmits the job data to the image-forming apparatus, and a reception slip outputter that outputs a reception slip including a reception number corresponding to the generated job data. The image-forming apparatus includes a receiver that receives the job data from the terminal device, and an outputter that outputs the content after executing a job based on the job data corresponding to the reception number when the reception number is input.

Abstract: A disk drive and an arm coil support assembly are to be provided which enables a trace to be disposed with a simple construction without the need of machining arms. In one embodiment, a trace for connection between a head and an FPC is disposed on an opposite surface of each of arms and opposite to a confronting surface of each of the arms which confronts a recording surface of a disk. The trace is bent nearly vertically in the vicinity of a connection between a coil support which supports the arms, and holds a VCM coil and the arm and is connected to the FPC. The coil support includes a force mechanism having a gap for insertion therein of the trace and also having a pressure portion spaced through the gap from the surface on which the trace is disposed. The force mechanism prevents wafting of the trace from the opposite surface of the arm caused by the bending of the trace.

Abstract: Terminals of a flexible printed circuit board and terminals of a wiring trace in a head suspension assembly are to be connected with each other by soldering without causing a soldering defect. In an embodiment, a terminal structure of a multi-connector in a wiring trace which includes an insulating layer and a conductor pattern portion formed on a surface of the insulating layer is provided with exposed portions of terminals exposed from apertures formed in part of the insulating layer and is also provided with lining portions adjacent to the exposed portions in a longitudinal direction of the conductor pattern portion and bonded to the insulating layer. Even if terminals of the multi-connector are cracked when soldered, not only conductivity is ensured, but also it is possible to strengthen the terminals, because the lining portions of the terminals are bonded to the insulating layer.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a data storage device improved in sealability between a base and a cover when sealed together, as well as a method of manufacturing the data storage device, are to be provided. In one embodiment, a disk enclosure of a hard disk drive includes a base in which a disk is accommodated, a top cover which covers an intra-base space, and a sealing tape for sealing a peripheral edge portion of the cover. The base is provided in an outer edge portion thereof with a covered portion which is covered with the sealing tape. In the covered portion, a sealed portion to which the sealing tape adheres is inclined so that an outer edge thereof becomes higher than an inner edge thereof.

Abstract: In a suspension used in an actuator of a hard disk drive, a limiter mechanism is to be provided which produces little dust and which can restrict deformation of a gimbals even against a strong shock. According to one embodiment, when a weak shock is applied to the suspension, a limiter tab and a back side of a load beam come into contact with each other to prevent a gimbals from being largely deformed by the shock. Since deformation of the gimbals is restricted by surface contact of both load beam and limiter tab, the generation of dust is suppressed effectively. When a strong shock is applied to the suspension, the limiter tab is deformed and a projecting portion of a restrictive aperture and an end portion of a limiter tab aperture come into contact with each other. The projecting portion retains the limiter tab to restrict a further deformation of the gimbals.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention shorten a work time required for peeling off a cover seal during rework. In one embodiment, a magnetic disk drive includes: a base provided with a bonded surface around an opening edge and containing therein a head driving mechanism and a magnetic disk; a top cover to be fitted to the opening edge so as to be fixed to the base; and a cover seal including a liner disposed at an outside surface of the top cover, a sheet-like structure and an adhesive layer formed on the structure, the adhesive layer being laminated in such a manner as to face to the bonded surface and the outside surface of the top cover, at which the liner is disposed, to be thus fixed to the base.

Abstract: A magnetic disk drive is to be provided wherein a ramp and a magnetic disk do not overlap each other and both rigidity and dynamic characteristics of a suspension are maintained. In one embodiment, a ramp and an actuator lying at a retractive position are spaced away from and do not overlap an outer peripheral end of a magnetic disk. A tab is formed centrally of a front end of a load beam and is bent in U shape. Flanges are formed along both longitudinal edges of the load beam. An aperture is formed in a front portion of the load beam. The aperture permits the tab to be machined in a desired shape. An aperture is formed behind the aperture. The apertures are not formed in an integrally contiguous manner but are separated from each other by a bridge portion.
