The automatic focus adjustment device of the conventional optical recording device is the first
As shown in the figure. In FIG. 1, in order to cause an objective lens 2 provided in a movable coil 1 to follow vertical fluctuations of the recording surface due to surface wobbling etc. during rotation of the glass recording master 3 during information signal recording, a laser light source 4 The reflected light 6 of the emitted light 5 is detected by the photodetector 7, and based on the detection signal, the relative distance between the objective lens 2 and the master 3 is determined by the objective lens 2.
The movable coil 1 is controlled and driven by a focus servo circuit 8 so as to coincide with the focal position. However, in order to drive the movable coil 1 equipped with the objective lens 2 from above to below into the control area of the movable coil 1, it is necessary to manually operate the drive unit 9 attached to the movable coil 1. Now, in order to perform this drive by automatically lowering the movable coil 1 into the control drive area by electromagnetic drive by a motor, the relative distance between the objective lens 2 and the recording master 3 must match the focal position of the objective lens 2. At this time, it is necessary to stop the movable drive by detecting the reflected light 6 from the master disk 3 with the light detector 7. However, when the laser light source 4 is not oscillating, the movable coil 1 equipped with the objective lens 2 is lowered by the motor during this work, and the distance between the objective lens 2 and the master 3 matches the focal position of the objective lens 2. However, the photodetector 7 cannot detect the reflected light because there is no reflected light. Therefore, the objective lens 2 continues to descend and comes into contact with the master disc 3, causing damage to the objective lens 2 and the master disc 3. In FIG. 1, 10 and 11 are condenser lenses, 12 is a polarizing beam splitter, 13 is a λ/4 plate, 14 is a dichroic mirror, and 15 is an information signal recording beam.

The present invention was developed to address the above problem, and detects the presence or absence of light emitted from a laser light source.
By providing a means for controlling a motor that raises and lowers a movable coil equipped with an objective lens at at least one location along the optical path of incidence from the laser light source to the optical recording master, damage to the objective lens and the recording master can be prevented. This is what I did. The present invention will be explained below based on drawings (FIGS. 2 and 3) showing embodiments. In the figure, the same parts as those of the conventional example shown in FIG. 1 are indicated using the same reference numerals. First, a first embodiment will be explained based on FIG. 2. The path of the emitted laser light 5 whose plane of polarization is perpendicular to the plane of incidence of the polarized beam splitter 12 is bent by 90 degrees by the polarized beam splitter 12 . However, at this time, a slight amount of leakage light 16 from the polarizing beam splitter 12 is detected by a photodetector 17 provided behind the polarizing beam splitter 12. The signal is sent to the motor 18 attached to the moving coil 1 via the focus servo circuit 8 to control the motor 18. The driving of the movable coil 1 by the motor 18 is stopped when the photodetector 7 detects that the distance between the objective lens 2 and the recording master 3 has reached the focal position of the objective lens 2. Therefore, the objective lens 2 can follow vertical fluctuations of the recording surface due to surface wobbling or the like when the recording master 3 rotates.
By the way, if there is no emitted light 5 from the laser light source 4, the photodetector 17 will not detect the leaked light 16, so the motor 18 will not be driven. Therefore,
It is impossible to lower the movable coil 1, and the objective lens 2
This can prevent damage to the recording master 3. Also, the laser light source 4 is turned on while the recording master disk 3 is being rotated to record information signals.
When the energization is stopped and the oscillation of the laser light source 4 stops, or the emitted light from the laser light source 4 is blocked by an obstacle and the emitted light 5 from the laser light source 4 is no longer detected by the photodetector 17, the movable The control drive of the coil 1 is stopped, and the movable coil 1 is electromagnetically driven upward by the motor 18, and the objective lens 2
This also prevents damage to the recording master 3.

The first embodiment has been described above, but as shown in FIG.
It is also possible to provide it behind the dichroic mirror 1, thereby directing the emitted light 5 from the laser light source 4 to the dichroic mirror 1.
It can be detected as leakage light 20 from 4,
The same effects as in the first embodiment can be obtained.
