Abstract: A sound absorber is configured as a rectangular hexahedral box and forms a porous double-layer Helmholtz resonance sound absorbing structure, at the same time, the sound absorber in the form of a box forms a structural resonance sound absorbing device itself, and the first-order natural mode frequency of the device is identical to that of a wheel air chamber. When the box-type sound absorbing structure is assembled in a wheel, double functions of absorbing acoustic resonance of the wheel air chamber under the organic combination of Helmholtz resonance sound absorption and structural resonance sound absorption can be realized.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are sliders with at least one notch-cut in the trailing pad, methods of making them, and data storage devices comprising them. In some embodiments, a slider comprises a leading-edge surface, a trailing-edge surface, and an air-bearing surface (ABS) that includes a trailing pad situated closer to the trailing-edge surface than to the leading-edge surface, wherein the trailing pad comprises at least one notch-cut (e.g., two notch-cuts) in a trailing side of the trailing pad. The at least one notch-cut provides higher pressure at the recording head situated in the trailing pad and higher thermal flight control efficiency without a commensurate increase in touch-down power. As a result, the temperature around the recording head is lower than without the at least one notch-cut, thereby improving the lifetime of the recording head and data storage device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of sliders in which the length of the slider is less than or equal to its width. Also disclosed are data storage devices (e.g., hard disk drives) comprising such sliders. The sliders may include one or more air-bearing surface features to compensate for the lower aspect ratio and to meet performance targets (fly height, roll stiffness, etc.). Such features may include, for example, a trailing-edge pad (which may include an efficiency-flattening hole), a first cavity between a first side of the trailing-edge pad and a first side edge, and a non-intersecting second cavity between a second side of the trailing-edge pad and a second side edge. A slider may also or alternatively include a leading pad and, in some embodiments, a particle trapping structure between the leading pad and the slider's leading edge.

Abstract: Disclosed here is a ramp for receiving a lift tab of a hard disk drive. The ramp comprises a first side and a second side, where the first side is spaced apart from the second side. The ramp also comprises an inclined surface along which the lift tab slides as it moves in a first direction to remove a read/write head from a disk of the hard disk drive. The inclined surface inclines from a leading edge of the ramp to an intermediate edge of the ramp in the first direction. The inclined surface has a width that is generally perpendicular to the first direction and extends from the first side to the second side. The inclined surface has a width that is generally perpendicular to the first direction and extends from the first side to the second side. The tapered portion defines an oblique angle relative to the first direction.
