Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, conventional shock absorbers have a problem that when the amount of compression due to external impact exceeds the maximum amount of compression, the impact force suddenly increases.
In addition, there is a problem that since the thickness of the cushioning member must be a thickness corresponding to the gap between the inner wall of the case and the main body of the hard disk drive, there is a problem in that the dimensional tolerance is not uniform, or the cushioning member is made to correspond to different external dimensions. In the case of the disk drive body, the thickness needs to be changed, so there is a lack of versatility, and in the case of a large gap between the inner wall of the case and the hard disk drive body, the amount of material used increases the cost

Embodiment Construction

[0023] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

[0024] Schematic structure of hard disk drive device 10

[0025] figure 1 It is a perspective view disassembled and shown of the hard disk drive device 10 (storage device) according to this embodiment. The hard disk drive device 10 includes a hard disk drive main body 12 (disk drive main body), a housing 20 accommodating the hard disk drive main body 12, and a buffer member 30 disposed between the hard disk drive main body 12 and the inner wall of the housing 20. The hard disk drive device 10 is A device that can be connected to a computer via a USB cable.

[0026] The hard disk drive main body 12 is a 3.5-inch general-purpose hard disk drive housed in a metal unit case. The housing 20 is a resin housing that forms the storage chamber 20 a and includes a housing main body 21 and a cover 22 . The case main body 21 and the cover body 22 are integrated by an engaging mechanism such as a hook. The inner ...

Abstract

A storage apparatus comprising: a casing forming a housing chamber; a disk drive housed in, at a spacing from, the housing chamber, such that unit outer walls of the disk drive are separated by a clearance from inner walls of the casing; and a buffer member interposed in the clearance between the disk drive and the casing, for absorbing an impact stress. The buffer member is formed of a material having flexibility, and is provided with: a support part fitted to a wall surface of one of either the disk drive or the casing; a hemispherically shaped dome part, formed on the support part; and an abutment part, formed along a top portion of the dome part, abutting on a wall surface of the other of either the disk drive or the casing. The dome part and the support part form, together with the wall surface of the one of either the disk drive or the casing, a sealing chamber sealing in air, whereby the dome part is lent elasticity.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a storage device, in particular to a storage device having a buffer member for protecting a disk drive body from external impact. Background technique [0002] As the hard disk drive device in the storage device, for example, the hard disk drive devices disclosed in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 are known. Such a hard disk drive device has a hard disk drive main body accommodated in a casing and a buffer member disposed between the hard disk drive main body and the inner wall of the casing, and deformed by stress to absorb impact stress. The hard disk drive absorbs the impact of dropping or the like by means of cushioning members, thereby alleviating the impact on the hard disk drive main body. A small piece made of flat rubber is usually used as this cushioning member, and its elastic compression (elastic compression) is used to absorb energy, thereby mitigating the impact. [0003] However, conventional sh...
