Summary: | The present invention relates to a motor to be used for recording and/or reproducing information stored in a compact disc or a video disc, and an apparatus using the same motor. More particularly, it relates to a motor structure which can improve oil-holding performance of oil-impregnated metal, and a motor structure which can restrain a rotor from moving and vibrating axially due to axial attraction from an attracting magnet.
A motor has plural through-holes punched in a top surface of its frame. A cap made of magnetic material is placed at a location on a stator which corresponds to the through-holes, and the cap is spaced axially from the through holes. An attracting magnet is placed outside the cap. This structure allows a bearing to hold its oil, and generates attracting force in an axial direction without adversely affecting driving-magnetic-circuits. As a result, an apparatus using this motor can be low in profile and run at a high speed. |
