Embodiments of the present invention provide a rotating disk storage
device adopting a thin yoke structure. In one embodiment, the yoke
structure of a voice coil motor includes a base of a casing formed from a
ferromagnetic material; an auxiliary yoke disposed so as to be
magnetically coupled to the base; a magnet disposed so as to be
magnetically coupled to a front surface of the auxiliary yoke; and a main
yoke provided with yoke legs magnetically coupled to the auxiliary yoke
and an opposing surface that confronts a front surface of the magnet. In
addition, a yoke gap is defined between the opposing surface and the
front surface of the magnet. The base and the auxiliary yoke form a
magnetic path, which allows a dedicated yoke on a lower portion to be
eliminated.
