  • Publication number: 20080144212
    Abstract: A recording medium mounted on the rotary body in a recording medium drive. First and second fixing members sandwiches the recording medium around the rotary body. An elastic member is interposed at least between the first fixing member and the recording medium. The elastic member serves to enhance the friction between the first fixing member and the recording medium in the fixing mechanism. Even if an impact is applied to the recording medium, the recording medium is thus reliably prevented from shifting within a plane perpendicular to the central axis of the rotary body, namely from a lateral shift.

  • Publication number: 20080098763
    Abstract: An air conditioning installation cools computer apparatuses by air-conditioning a room where the computer apparatuses are installed. The air conditioning installation includes:(a) an inlet duct for making air flow into the room; (b) an air-conditioner which sends air into the inlet duct, and (c) inlet fans for the respective computer apparatuses to be cooled. The inlet fans are disposed at positions corresponding to inlets of the computer apparatuses installed in the room, and send air flown through the inlet duct into the room such that the air flows toward the inlets of the computer apparatuses.

  • Patent number: 7016158
    Abstract: A head slider is related to an actuator block. A flexible printed circuit board is received on the surface of the actuator block. A head IC is mounted on the surface of the flexible printed circuit board. A heat conductive member is mounted on the head IC. The heat resistance of the heat conductive member is set smaller than that of the flexible printed circuit board. A larger amount of heat can be transmitted from the head IC to the actuator block. The actuator block is made of a metal material such as aluminum. The heat resistance of the actuator block is apparently smaller than that of the flexible printed circuit board. A larger amount of heat can be radiated from the actuator block as compared with the flexible printed circuit board. The head IC is thus reliably prevented from a rise in the temperature.

  • Patent number: 6619531
    Abstract: A method for determining the condition of a reflow furnace so as to prevent the semiconductor element from tilting due to different collapsed amounts of solder bumps in the single semiconductor element of multiple chip modules mounted on the semiconductor element on the substrate. For the carrying direction in the reflow furnace using a carrying belt, temperature analysis for time duration is performed for the solder bumps at both the front and rear, and then the condition of the reflow furnace is determined so as to close at both the times for reaching the solder melting temperature and the times for maintaining the solder melting temperature.
