Patent ID: 7101084

Claim:
A dynamic pressure bearing apparatus having a radial dynamic pressure bearing portion between an inner peripheral surface of a bearing and an outer peripheral surface of a shaft, and a thrust dynamic pressure bearing portion between a thrust plate attached on at least one end surface side of the shaft and the bearing or a counter plate fixed to the bearing, and generating a dynamic pressure to a lubricating fluid injected into each of the dynamic pressure bearing portions by relative rotation generated between the bearing and the shaft, thereby supporting the bearing and the shaft, the dynamic pressure bearing apparatus comprising: a bottomed screw hole being provided to at least one end of the shaft for screwing a headed screw therein to attach the thrust plate; the lubricating fluid being filled in a gap of a screw portion between the screw and the screw hole and a screw non-occupied space between a bottom portion of the bottomed screw hole and the screw portion end of the headed screw; and an interposing member being attached in the screw non-occupied space for reducing a void cubic volume in the screw non-occupied space.
