Abstract:
A dual stage actuated (DSA) suspension uses two shear-mode PZT microactuators to finely position the head slider. The bottom surfaces of the PZTs are affixed to the flexure, and the PZT top surfaces move forward and backward, respectively, in push-pull fashion when the PZTs are activated. Flexible connector arms attach the tops surfaces of the PZTs to the gimbal tongue such that activating the PZTs causes the gimbal tongue to rotate, with the connector arms acting as levers to magnify the motion such that a relatively small shear movement of the PZTs results in a significantly larger lateral movement of the head slider across the data disk.

Claim (Index 14):
The suspension of  claim 13  wherein:\n the shear-mode piezoelectric device and the flexible connector respectively define a first shear-mode piezoelectric device and a first flexible connector; and \n the suspension further comprises:\n a second shear-mode piezoelectric device mounted to the flexure; and \n a second flexible connector extending from the second shear-mode piezoelectric device to the gimbal tongue; \n wherein when the second piezoelectric device is activated:\n the second shear-mode piezoelectric device moves the second flexible connector in a second longitudinal direction opposite the first longitudinal direction.
