Spindle motor with turntable fixing member

A spindle motor comprising:

• a rotation shaft;
• a turntable coupled to the rotation shaft to rotate along with the rotation shaft and to support a disk;
• a center cone coupled to a portion of the rotation shaft and disposed over the turntable to move along an axis of the rotation shaft and to fix the disk, wherein a portion of the turntable opposite to the center cone is formed with a thickness thinner than that of a portion of the turntable not being opposite to the center cone, such that the turntable and the rotation shaft are coupled with a low coupling force;
• and
• a ring-shaped turntable fixing member coupled to the rotation shaft and disposed on an upper surface of the turntable to fix the turntable,
• wherein the turntable fixing member is a metal ring provided with a reinforcing frame extending from a surface of the turntable fixing member along a periphery of the rotation shaft so as to increase a coupling area between the rotation shaft and the turntable fixing member, and
• wherein the turntable fixing member is press-fitted into the periphery of the rotation shaft.
