Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
86 words
An anti-vibration mechanism comprising: a first
chassis; a second chassis opposed to the first chassis;
vibration proof members mounted to the second chassis;
support members for mounting the vibration proof members to
the first chassis; and elastic members arranged between the
first chassis and the support members, wherein the second
chassis is suspended from the first chassis through the
intermediation of the vibration proof members and wherein
the distance between the first chassis and the second
chassis can be adjusted by means of the elastic members.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
57 words
An anti-vibration mechanism according to Claim 1,
wherein deformed screw portions are formed on the support
members, and wherein mounting holes having a configuration
corresponding to the deformed screw portions are formed in
the first chassis, the deformed screw portions being passed
through the mounting holes to thereby mount the vibration
proof members to the first chassis.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
51 words
An anti-vibration mechanism according to Claim 2,
wherein flat surfaces are provided on the deformed screw
portions, and wherein a plurality of said mounting holes are
formed, with the orientations of flat surfaces of at least
two of the mounting holes being arranged so as to be
orthogonal to each other.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
15 words
An anti-vibration mechanism according to any preceding claim
wherein the elastic members are spring washers.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
103 words
A disk drive device which is equipped with an anti-vibration
mechanism comprising: a first chassis: a second
chassis carrying a rotation drive motor to which a turntable
is mounted and a reproduction head; vibration proof members
mounted to the second chassis; support members for mounting
the vibration proof members to the first chassis; and
elastic members arranged between the first chassis and the
support members, wherein the second chassis is suspended
from the first chassis through the intermediation of the
vibration proof members and wherein the distance between the
first chassis and the turntable can be adjusted by means of
the elastic members.
