Conventional configuration and its problems In general, in this type of optical disk device, in order to read information accurately, focus control is required to control the distance between the objective lens and the information track position to prevent warping or wobbling of the disk, and It is necessary to perform tracking control in which the objective lens follows the eccentricity of the track, and for this purpose it is necessary to hold the objective lens so that it can move freely in the focus direction and the tracking direction.

Conventionally, the objective lens is held by separate leaf springs for focusing and tracking, and the deflection of the leaf springs allows movement of the objective lens in the focusing direction and the tracking direction. However, holding the objective lens with separate leaf springs for focusing and tracking in this manner has the disadvantage that the mechanism is complicated and costly, and harmful partial resonance is likely to occur. In other words, when the leaf spring that allows movement of the objective lens in the focus direction bends in the focus direction, stress in the focus direction is generated on the leaf spring that allows movement in the tracking direction, which causes partial resonance. There was a drawback of doing so.

One end of each of the four metal wires 6 coated on the rubber tube 5 passes through holes 2a provided in the upper and lower parts of the opposing sides of the holder 2, and each tip is attached to the side of the holder 2. It is connected to the attached printed circuit board 7 by soldering. On the other hand, the other end of each metal wire 6 is connected to a printed circuit board 8 by soldering. This printed circuit board 8
is fixed to the side surface of a U-shaped base 10 with screws 9, and thereby the holder 2 is supported in a cantilevered manner on the base 10 with elasticity by the four metal wires 6. The base 10 is made of magnetic material,
There are two magnets 1 inside the opposing side plates.

When a current is supplied to the lead wire 12, the current flows through the metal wire 6 to the focusing drive coil 3 or the tracking drive coil 4, and due to the electromagnetic interaction with the magnet 11, the objective lens 1 and the holder 2 are moved by the metal wire 6. Move in each direction against elasticity.

According to this embodiment, since the holder 2 holding the objective lens 1 is cantilever-supported by four metal wires 6 of the same shape, the compliance of the holder 2 in both the focusing direction and the tracking direction is equal. Therefore, both directions can be driven with the same amount of power.

Furthermore, since the metal wire 6 is linear, when the metal wire 6 is bent in the focus direction due to the movement of the holder 2 in the focus direction, unnecessary stress applied to the metal wire 6 in the tracking direction that is approximately perpendicular to the bending is caused by the plate spring. It is much smaller than the conventional one using . This reduces harmful partial resonance.

Furthermore, because of the cantilever structure, the wire diameter of the metal wire 6 can be made thicker than that of a double-end support structure in order to obtain the same compliance, and as a result, the length of the metal wire 6 can be increased. Therefore, since the displacement of the holder 2 can be increased, large focus control and tracking control are possible, and highly reliable spring characteristics that are resistant to fatigue can be obtained. On the other hand, if the metal wire 6 having the same wire diameter as in the case of the double-end structure is used, the compliance can be increased, resulting in high efficiency.

In this embodiment, the number of metal wires 6 is four, but there may be more, for example, three on one side and three on the other, totaling 6.
It could be a book. Further, although the metal wire 6 is covered with the rubber tube 5, the metal wire 6 may be insert-molded in rubber. Also, the printed circuit board 8 and the base 10 are fixed with one screw 9, but by inserting rubber between the base 10 and the printed circuit board 8 and fixing the screw, it is possible to tilt the holder 2 only in the focusing direction and the tracking direction. It may also be possible to adjust the longitudinal position without any modification.

Effects of the Invention As described above, the present invention uses four or more elastic metal wires to hold a holder that holds an objective lens cantilevered on a base, and uses the bending of these metal wires themselves in the focusing direction and the tracking direction. Since the objective lens holder is configured to allow movement of the holder, the structure is extremely simple, the cost is low, and an objective lens holding device with less partial resonance can be realized. Furthermore, since the metal wire itself is used for energizing the drive coil, there is no need for a dedicated energizing wire, which also simplifies the structure and reduces the number of parts.
