Patent number: 5905255Abstract: In a objective lens driver, at least one permanent magnet is mounted on a movable member, and plural yokes, each being wound with a coil having its winding axis in the focusing direction, are disposed facing the permanent magnet. The yokes are arranged almost symmetrically about a plane including the center of gravity of the movable member and being perpendicular to the tracking direction. In this structure, even when the movable member moves in the tracking direction, since the permanent magnet (a magnetic field source) also moves with the movable member, the distribution of magnetic flux density that contributes to the drive also shifts according to the movement of the movable member, so that the distribution of magnetic flux density maintains being almost symmetrical about the center of gravity of the movable member. Accordingly, in tilt drive, a constant sensitivity to tilt drive is obtained regardless of the position of the movable member.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 1998Date of Patent: May 18, 1999Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kanji Wakabayashi, Hitoshi Fujii, Hiroshi Yamamoto, Jouji Anzai, Yasumasa Shibata
