Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify the assembly and production of an optical information reader by having an annular outside yoke for focusing. CONSTITUTION:Inside yokes 33 and 33 for focusing are welded on the 1st control plate 27 as if they held a fulcrum shaft 29 back and forth, and a ring magnet 34 for focusing is welded on the upper surface of the plate 27 as if it enclosed those two yokes. Furthermore an annular outside yoke 35 for focusing is welded on the upper surface of the magnet 34. In such constitution, a motor consisting of a focusing coil 44, the inside and outside yokes 33 and 35 and the magnet 34 is actuated when a focus error signal is applied to the coil 44. Then a lens holding arm 37 is moved up and down in the thrust direction along a fulcrum shaft 29 and against the elastic force of a neutral holding tool together with objective lens 40. Thus an optical focal point is obtained. In such a way, both the assembly and production can be simplified for an optical information reader.

In the method described in (■) above, the focus control mechanism has a structure in which coils, magnets, etc. are combined with the objective lens to vibrate the objective lens itself, so it is extremely small and difficult to assemble, maintain, and inspect.

The structure has the advantage that it can be made smaller overall than the method in (2) because it can be constructed with a large W and the thrust and radial movement of the objective lens can be obtained by the rotation and vertical movement of the holding cylinder. have points.

Further, when the tracking error correction signal is given to the tracking operation coil v45, the coil 45
Then, the second motor consisting of the inner and outer yokes 36, 25 and the magnet 26 operates to rotate the lens holding arm 37 together with the objective lens 40 around the fulcrum shaft 29 against the elasticity of the neutral holder 51. That is, the convergence point of the light beam by the objective lens 40 is positioned on the information track by moving in the direction toward the edge.

The optical information reading device according to the present invention operates while the player is being driven as described above.
When the incident angle of the upwardly focused light beam is not perpendicular to the tangential direction of the information track, it is preferable to adjust it by rotating the adjustment screw 18 to the left or right. That is,
When the adjustment screw 18 is rotated to the left or right, the support piece 10'
When the prism 16 is moved up and down through the prism 16 and the fixed surface 16b of the prism 16 is adjusted to be parallel to the optical axis of the light beam from the light emitting element 11 to the reflection surface 16a, the light beam is centered on the objective lens. The optical axes should match and the light beam should be irradiated perpendicular to the tangential direction of the upper rack! Become.
