Accompanying drawing 3 or accompanying drawing 4 are the 1st embodiment of fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor involved in the present invention, as shown in the figure, fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor can be divided into the fixed component of keeping stationary state and by power supply and by and fixed component between the rotating member that rotated of interaction.

In this fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor, fixed component is made of axle sleeve 20 and casing 10 and core 40, and rotating member then is made of axle 50 and wheel shaft 30 and magnet 15.

And insert the axle 50 that can rotate at the hollow shaft 21 that runs through and be arranged at described axle sleeve 20 central portions.

This axle sleeve 20 will form the required groove 22 of generation dynamic pressure at the aperture surface of its hollow shaft 21 usually, to produce axle 50 hydrodynamic radially.

And described axle sleeve 20 separates every certain intervals with axle 50, and oil clearance G will be set, and oils for the frictional force between control axle sleeve 20 and spools 50 need add at this oil clearance G.

When this oil is rotated at axle 50, flows, just produce certain oil pressure, and axle 50 is owing to be subjected to the influence of this kind oil pressure to axle 50 direction of rotation, will have to the diameter of axle to axially movable character.

Therefore, concerning conventional art, axle 50 and outside a side of diametric plane or 20 aperture surfaces of axle sleeve correspondingly, at least to be provided for producing the required groove of dynamic pressure 51,22, thereby will produce the superpower hydrodynamic that makes progress from oil clearance G to the diameter of axle, and, will keep the oil clearance G of the equilibrium between axle sleeve 20 and the axle 50 by the hydrodynamic that is produced this moment.

As the groove 22 that produces the hydrodynamic that the diameter of axle makes progress, usually be arranged on the outer peripheral face of axle 50, groove takes place to use as dynamic pressure is set on rotating member axle 50, will deepen the frictional force between axle 50 and the oil, and work as rotary load, so most now aperture surface at non-drive member axle sleeve 20 will be provided with the dynamic pressure that produces the hydrodynamic on the direction of principal axis and take place with groove 22.

At the outer diameter part of described axle sleeve 20 core 40 that flows to the winding around of power supply from periphery along the end will be installed, and this core 40 is with corresponding attached to the magnet 15 of the inner cylinder of wanting wheel shaft 30 described later, thus will produce by interacting decide electromagnetic force.

And the attachment magnets 15 cap shape wheel shafts 30 of exploitation downwards will be installed in the upper end of described axle 50 on the inner cylinder of the prolongation end that outer ends is prolonged downwards, and will be towards the outer cylinder of core 40 attached to the magnet 15 on the described wheel shaft 30.

Fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor with architectural feature like this is as flowing to power supply from the outside, and by the electromagnetic force that interaction produced between core 40 and the magnet 15, axle 50 is driven when rotating in the lump with wheel shaft 30.

Aforesaid structure and traditional fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor structure are much at one, but, the present invention is preferable to be, for making the oil that on the oil clearance G that is provided with between described axle sleeve 20 and the axle 50, is filled into, even when motor driven, also can make it to keep whole counterpressure, some air vent holes 56 must be set on axle 50, to guarantee the flowability of oil smoothly.

That is, as shown in Figure 4, be arranged on will be provided with at a certain distance on the thrust bearing 55 of axle 50 bottoms vertically run through and have decide some air vent holes 56 of diameter.

This air vent hole 56 runs through more than the place in the upper and lower part of thrust bearing 55 at least, so that oil circulated by air vent hole 56, thereby the oil that is filled into oil clearance G will keep counterpressure on the whole.

Fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor with design feature like this, be sent to core 40 as the power supply that provides from the outside, the wheel shaft 30 of attachment magnets 15 is rotated by the electromagnetic force that interaction produced between described core 40 and the magnet 15, thereby the axle 50 that is installed in wheel shaft also is rotated thereupon simultaneously.

During this motor driven, the axle 50 that is inserted in axle sleeve 20 inside diameters is rotated under the state that does not contact described axle sleeve 20 aperture surfaces by being filled into the oil of oil clearance G.

At this moment, it is poor to produce axial compressive force usually between axle sleeve 20 and thrust bearing 55, as produces the pressure differential on this direction of principal axis, and oil can be circulated by air vent hole 56.Thereby can keep balanced pressure.

That is, when axle 50 was rotated, oil was flowed along the air vent hole 56 that is arranged on thrust bearing 55, and will produce balanced dynamic pressure on the whole, thereby can reduce the rotary load of axle 50, can realize unimpeded high speed rotating simultaneously.

Accompanying drawing 5 and accompanying drawing 6 are the 2nd embodiment of fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor involved in the present invention.As shown in the figure, axle 50 central parts will be provided with from the bottom the 1st air vent hole 57 that upwards prolongs and from then on the upper end of the 1st air vent hole 57 extend to the 2nd air vent hole 58 of horizontal direction.

Said the 1st air vent hole 57 will be arranged on axle 50 central parts, and inlet will be arranged on the bottom, but and vertically extending upper institute take the altitude.

Described the 2nd air vent hole 58 is connected the 1st air vent hole 57 from axle 50 mid portions that bear maximum pressure, and prolongs to horizontal direction, so that oil circulated along little axle 50 epimeres of load, thus the equilibrium that improves oil pressure.

Fluid dynamic pressure bearing motor with design feature like this, be sent to core 40 as the power supply that provides from the outside, the wheel shaft 30 of attachment magnets 15 will be rotated by the electromagnetic force that is produced between described core 40 and the magnet 15, thereby the axle 50 that is installed on the wheel shaft 30 is rotated thereupon.

When this motor drove, the axle 50 that is inserted in axle sleeve 20 inside diameters will be rotated under the state that does not contact described axle sleeve 20 aperture surfaces by the oil that is filled into oil clearance G.

At this moment, because the actuating force of motor, in the pressure differential that produces usually between axle sleeve 20 and the thrust bearing 55 on the direction of principal axis, and if produce pressure differential on the direction of principal axis, oil can be circulated by the 1st air vent hole 57 and the 2nd air vent hole 58, thereby guarantees the equilibrium of pressure.

Therefore, during motor driven, oil circulates along the 1st air vent hole 57 and the 2nd air vent hole 58, thereby will keep the counterpressure on the whole of oil.
