ABSTRACT:
An improved head gimbal assembly for supporting a head in a disc drive assembly. The improved head gimbal assembly including a gimbal spring adapted to support a slider and provide desired flexure characteristics for the slider to pitch and roll while limiting dimple separation. The gimbal spring including spaced struts formed of elongated straight members. The struts are shaped to define a generally increasing spring constant along a substantial length of the struts extending from a distance proximal of extended ends of the struts adapted to support a slider to opposed ends of the struts.
