A pump control device for a pump device having a DC brushless motor as a drive source and a flow rate of the pump device is increased and decreased depending on a corresponding increase and decrease of a rotational speed of the DC brushless motor is structured so that, when the rotational speed of the DC brushless motor is higher than a predetermined speed, the DC brushless motor is controlled in an open loop control and, when the rotational speed of the DC brushless motor is lower than the predetermined speed, the DC brushless motor is controlled in a closed loop control on the basis of a measurement result of an actual rotating speed which is an actual rotational speed of the DC brushless motor.

Pump control device and pump device

A motor may include a motor base plate, a bearing holder provided with a through hole whose both ends hold bearings and vertically disposed with respect to the motor base plate, a stator provided with a center hole and fixed to an outer peripheral face of the bearing holder, and a rotor having a shaft supported by the bearings, a rotor case fixed to the shaft, and a magnet fixed on an inner peripheral face of the rotor case. The bearing holder may be provided with a stepped part, protruded toward a radial direction. The stator may be provided with a first resin block structured so that an end face on a motor base plate side of the stator core is molded with resin to cover a coil wound around the stator core, and inner peripheral faces of the stator core and the first resin block structure the center hole, and the center hole of the stator is press-fitted and fixed to the bearing holder until an end face of the first resin block is abutted with the stepped part.

Motor

A floppy disc drive apparatus includes a spindle motor, a magnetic head, a drive mechanism, a mechanism controller, a floppy disc controller, and a universal serial bus interface. The spindle motor rotatably drives a floppy disc at a rotational speed of 600 rpm or more. The magnetic head reads and records data on the floppy disc. The drive mechanism has an actuator that scans the magnetic head in a radial direction of the floppy disc. The mechanism controller controls the drive mechanism to thereby reproduce and record specified data on the floppy disc. The floppy disc controller transfers and receives data to and from the mechanism controller at a transfer rate of 1 Mbit/s or greater. The universal serial bus interface allows the floppy disc controller to transfer and receive data to and from an external apparatus at a transfer rate of 1 Mbit/s or greater.

Floppy disc drive apparatus

A floppy disk rotating drive mechanism having a metal drive pin configured to withstand high speeds and to prevent damage to a disk by the pin when the disk is chucked. The drive mechanism has a rotation center shaft to engage the center hole in the floppy disk, a rotating unit that rotates with the rotation center shaft, a chucking lever pivotally supported on one end by the rotating unit and provided with the drive pin on the other end. The disk is rotated when the drive pin engages the drive pin engaging hole in the disk positioned eccentrically from the center hole. The drive pin is made of stainless steel and has an inclined upper surface that is higher on an outside portion farther away from the rotating shaft than on an inside portion nearer the rotating shaft. The outer portion of upper surface of the drive pin is also provided with a chamfered section. A front portion of the drive pin in the leading direction of the rotation has curved surface and a back portion of the drive pin has a flat surface.

Disk rotating drive mechanism

In a method of controlling a disk driving motor having a rotor to which disks are loaded, an improvement comprises the step of, when the recording/reproducing is performed with respect to a disk, rotating the rotor in a reverse direction by one of a predetermined rotational angle and for a predetermined time during the period from the time the rotor stops rotating in a normal direction to the time the rotor is again driven in the normal direction. A control device for a disk driving motor in accordance with the method is also disclosed.

Controlling method of disk driving motor and its controlling device

A driving motor comprises a rotor having a rotatably supported shaft, a rotor case rotating together with the shaft, a hub seat attached to the rotor case for mounting a disk hub and a chucking magnet for magnetically attracting the disk hub and a thrust ball bearing having a washer, a plurality s of balls and a retainer for holding the balls and supporting the load in the thrust direction of the rotor. The motor also includes a flatness control section which passes through the rotor case to contact the washer of the thrust ball bearing and controls the flatness of the washer and a position control section which passes through the rotor case to contact an inner circle surface of the washer of the thrust ball bearing and controls the washer in the thrust direction. The chucking magnet, flatness control section and position control section are integrally molded of resin.

Coil components and motor using the coil components

A rotary electric machine comprising a stator and a rotor arranged opposedly of the stator. A magnet is provided on the stator or a frame for holding the stator at a position so as to be constantly opposed during rotation to a portion of the magnetic body of the rotor. The magnet is disposed at a position other than at a portion at which the magnetic action for rotation of the rotor occurs. The rotor is therefore constantly biased so that rotor play is minimized and non-repeatable deflections of the spindle are eliminated.
