  2. Hard disk drive platter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive_platter

    A hard disk drive platter or hard disk is the circular magnetic disk on which digital data is stored in a hard disk drive. [1] The rigid nature of the platters is what gives them their name (as opposed to the flexible materials which are used to make floppy disks ).

  3. Flexplate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexplate

    A flexplate or flex plate is a metal disk that connects the output from an engine to the input of a torque converter in a car equipped with an automatic transmission. [1] It takes the place of the flywheel found in a conventional manual transmission setup.

  4. Hard disk drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive

    A metal plate supports a squat neodymium–iron–boron (NIB) high-flux magnet. Beneath this plate is the moving coil, often referred to as the voice coil by analogy to the coil in loudspeakers, which is attached to the actuator hub, and beneath that is a second NIB magnet, mounted on the bottom plate of the motor (some drives have only one ...

  5. List of disk drive form factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_disk_drive_form...

    This became a standard platter size and drive form-factor for many years, used also by other manufacturers. The IBM 2314 used platters of the same size in an eleven-high pack and introduced the "drive in a drawer" layout, although the "drawer" was not the complete drive.

  6. Swashplate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swashplate

    The fixed plate is shown in gold and six shafts each take a reciprocating motion from points on the gold plate. The shafts might be connected to pistons in cylinders. Note the power may be coming from the shaft to drive the pistons as in a pump, or from the pistons to drive the shaft rotation as in an engine

  7. Dog (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_(engineering)

    The dog clutch contrasts with the friction clutch, the most basic form of which comprises a smooth disc and pressure plate: when pressed together they lock up simply through friction, which permits some degree of slip as the mating pressure is modulated and thus permits some difference in the rotational speeds of the discs.

  9. Spline (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spline_(mechanical)

    Drive shafts on vehicles and power take-offs use splines to transmit torque and rotation and allow for changes in length. Splines are ubiquitous in aerospace, due to the spline's higher reliability and fatigue life compared to keyed shafts.
