A composite disk-clamp assembly including a clamp or spacer of a resilient material coupled to a disk by injection molded plastic so that the clamp forms an integral portion of the disk itself.
대표청구항▼
What is claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: a disk; and a clamp or spacer coupled to the disk by injection molded plastic; wherein the disk has a top and a bottom outer surface extending between a circumferential edge thereof, wherein the clamp or spacer extends in a direction parallel to an axis
What is claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: a disk; and a clamp or spacer coupled to the disk by injection molded plastic; wherein the disk has a top and a bottom outer surface extending between a circumferential edge thereof, wherein the clamp or spacer extends in a direction parallel to an axis of the disk beyond all extents of at least one of the top and bottom outer surfaces of the disk in the direction, wherein at least one of the disk and clamp or at least one of the disk and spacer has a surface feature for creating a mechanical coupling with the plastic such that an interface between the plastic and the at least one of the disk and clamp or the at least one of the disk and spacer has a nonlinear cross section. 2. The system as recited in claim 1, wherein the clamp or spacer is oriented towards a central aperture of the disk. 3. The system as recited in claim 2, wherein the system includes a center hole adapted to receive a member therethrough. 4. The composite disk assembly as recited in claim 1, wherein the clamp or spacer extends beyond all extents of both of the top and bottom outer surfaces of the disk in the direction parallel to an axis of the disk. 5. The system as recited in claim 1, wherein at least one side of the clamp or spacer is coplanar with an outer extent of the top or bottom outer surface of the disk. 6. The system as recited in claim 1, wherein a substrate of the disk is formed of injection molded plastic. 7. The system as recited in claim 1, wherein the clamp or spacer is formed of injection molded plastic. 8. The system as recited in claim 1, wherein the plastic has at least one performance-enhancing additive intermixed therewith, the additive being effective to improve a property in the plastic as compared to the plastic without the additive, the property being selected from a group consisting of: bulk density, processability, brittleness, strength, oxidation properties, and stabilization properties relating to heat or UV light. 9. The system as recited in claim 8, wherein the additive is selected from a group consisting of: fillers, plasticizers, antioxidants, stabilizers, reinforcing additives, and material strengthening elements. 10. The system as recited in claim 1, further comprising; at least one head for reading from and writing to the magnetic media, each head having; a sensor; a write element coupled to the sensor: a slider for supporting the head; and a control unit coupled to the head for controlling operation of the head. 11. A system, comprising; a disk having a central aperture; a clamp or spacer positioned in the central aperture of the disk; and injection molded plastic coupling the clamp or spacer to the disk; wherein at least one of the disk and clamp or at least one of the disk and spacer has a surface feature for creating a mechanical coupling with the plastic such that an interface between the plastic and the at least one of the disk and clamp or the at least one of the disk and spacer has a nonlinear cross section; wherein the disk has a top and a bottom outer surface extending between a circumferential edge thereof, wherein the clamp or spacer extends in a direction parallel to an axis of the disk beyond all extents of at least one of the top and bottom outer surfaces of the disk in the direction. 12. The system as recited in claim 11, wherein the system includes a center hole adapted to receive a member therethrough. 13. The composite disk assembly as recited in claim 11, wherein the clamp or spacer extends beyond extents of both of the top and bottom outer surfaces of the disk in a direction parallel to an axis of the disk. 14. The system as recited in claim 11, wherein at least one side of the clamp or spacer is coplanar with an extent of the top or bottom outer surface of the disk. 15. The system as recited in claim 11, wherein a substrate of the disk is formed of injection molded plastic. 16. The system as recited in claim 11, wherein the clamp or spacer is formed of injection molded plastic. 17. The system as recited in claim 11, wherein the plastic has strengthening elements therein. 18. The system as recited in claim 11, wherein the plastic has at least one performance-enhancing additive added thereto, the additive being effective to improve a property in the plastic as compared to the plastic without the additive, the property being selected from a group consisting of: bulk density, processability, brittleness, strength, oxidation properties, and stabilization properties relating to heat or UV light. 19. The system as recited in claim 11, wherein the clamp or spacer is formed of at least one of a metal and ceramic. 20. The system as recited in claim 11, further comprising: at least one head for reading, from and writing; to the magnetic media, each head having: a sensor: a write element coupled to the sensor; a slider for supporting, the head; and a control unit coupled to the head for controlling operation of the head.
