  • Flexure mount for a disc drive actuator
    Patent number: 4783710
    Abstract: A disc drive is disclosed having a carriage arm comprising a magnesium head mount and stainless steel flexure. The two pieces are joined where they overlap by a single rivet pressed into a hole at the center line or main axis of the head mount and flexure. The magnesium is thereby free to float on either side of the rivet, thus alleviating stress and the resulting motion of the flexure.
