ABSTRACT:
An actuator pivot assembly in a data storage device includes a base, a cover attached to the base, and a shaft mounted on the base and extending upward into a hole defined by the cover. A sheet on top of the cover spans the hole, and an adhesive layer beneath the sheet adheres the sheet to the cover and to the shaft, thereby securing the actuator shaft to the cover, damping vibrations in the actuator pivot assembly, and sealing the hole defined by the cover. These functions are performed while saving space, reducing costs and simplifying assembly of the data storage device.
