Abstract
To correct the rotational balance of a spindle motor for rotating a disc on a base, a position and an amount of offset for correcting dynamic balance are determined from a position deviation signal, which is obtained from vibration transmitted to a rotary type position control unit located on the base similarly by lowering the servo gain thereof, and an index signal from the spindle motor. With this arrangement the dynamic balance of the spindle motor of an information recording/reproducing apparatus can be simply and accurately corrected without adding an accelerator sensor and the like.
Claims4
An information recording and/or reproducing apparatus, comprising:
- a spindle motor unit for rotating an information recording disc;
- a rotary position control unit for determining the rotational position of a head with respect to the disc, said rotary position control unit comprising a motor unit for rotating said rotary position control unit and an encoder for detecting the rotational angle of said rotary position control unit to determine the rotational position of said rotary position control unit;
- and
- a processing unit for obtaining vibration information of said spindle motor unit from the output of said encoder.
