Abstract: A swing arm extends rearwardly from an engine, and a pair of side cases is arranged leftwardly and rightwardly of the swing arm. The swing arm is supported at a body frame by a single rear shock absorber. The engine is supported at the body frame by a plurality of vibration absorbing support members. Each vibration absorbing support member has a structure in which a rubber member is arranged between an outer cylinder and an inner cylinder. The engine is attached to the inner cylinder with use of an engine support shaft, and the body frame is attached to the outer cylinder with use of an engine bracket. The rubber member has projections being in contact with an inner surface of the outer cylinder and recesses not being in contact with the inner surface of the outer cylinder. The swing arm is rigidly and pivotally connected to the engine.

Abstract: A straddle-type vehicle includes a rear arm, a seat, a rear suspension located below the seat, and a first silencer at least partially located below the seat and the rear suspension. The rear arm includes the left arm portion, the right arm portion, and a second cross member. The right arm portion is provided with a through-hole extending therethrough in a vehicle width direction and located between the top edge and the bottom edge of the right arm portion. The second cross member includes a coupling portion to which a bottom end portion of the rear suspension is coupled. As seen in a vehicle side view, at least a portion of the coupling portion overlaps the through-hole.

Abstract: A storage device of a report producing terminal stores an importance table. The importance table stores grades of importance of respective items of accessory information on medical images. Prior to displaying a medical image on a screen, an area defining section extracts a main subject display area of the medical image, and defines an accessory information display area outside the main subject display area. A display style defining section calculates a necessary display area for each individual item of the accessory information, and discriminates between those items which fit in the accessory information display area and those which do not. The display style defining section decides not to display the items which do not fit in the accessory information display area, or decides to display them in a transparent style, in a scrolling style, in a switching style or with a small font.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention prevent a spindle motor from stopping rotation while data on a magnetic disk is being erased by using a permanent magnet. In one embodiment, data in the whole area of the magnetic disk is erased as a consequence of the magnetic disk rotating in the magnetic field of the permanent magnet located so as to face a part of the magnetic disk. A back yoke is located so as to face a base. The back yoke gives a magnetic force to the spindle motor in the opposite direction of the magnetic force of the erasing permanent magnet so that the fluid dynamic bearing spindle motor can retain the rotation as required without stopping rotation.

Abstract: Embodiments in accordance with the present invention control pitch variations that are not observed in self servo write (SSW). According to one embodiment of the present invention, an outer radius side area of a magnetic disk is erased using an external magnetic field, and an inner radius side area is subjected to self erase using a head. The magnetization state in the base of the inner radius side area is different from that of the outer radius side area before pattern writing. Therefore, in the inner radius side area and the outer radius side area, even if a radial pattern of the same pitch is read, the different APCs are measured. With SSW of this embodiment, a reference APC used in the inner radius side area is different from that used in the outer radius side area. In this manner, the pitch variation is prevented.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for writing servo patterns on a data recording disk of a disk drive device. A read/write head is stopped at a reference position on the data recording disk, then the read/write head is moved along a radial direction of the data recording disk from the reference position, then a determination is made as to whether the data recording disk has a sufficient width along the radial direction to write a predetermined number of servo tracks, or not, then the servo patterns are written on the servo tracks if the data recording a disk has the sufficient width.
