An optical head device has at least one upward-reflecting mirror, objective lenses, an objective lens actuator, and a moving mechanism. The upward-reflecting mirror receives an incident luminous flux having a wavelength emitted from a semiconductor, and changes its direction. The objective lenses having mutually different numerical apertures condenses the luminous flux whose direction has been changed by the upward-reflecting mirror to radiate a condensed luminous flux onto an information recording medium. The objective lens actuator moves the objective lenses in the focus direction of the information recording medium so that the luminous flux incident on the information recording medium becomes in a focused state. The moving mechanism moves the upward-reflecting mirror so that the luminous flux is incident on the information recording medium via any one of the objective lenses.

An optical recording/reproducing apparatus comprises: a light receiving and emitting device that emits divergent optical beams and detects various signals on a disk; a collimator lens for converting the optical beams emitted from the device into parallel beams; an objective lens for converging the optical beams of the parallel beams onto the disk; and an objective-lens drive for driving the objective lens in a focusing direction perpendicular to a recording surface of the disk and in a radial direction parallel to the recording surface. The objective-lens drive is supported by suspensions attached at one end to a lens holder for holding the objective lens and to a fixing member at their other ends. The collimator lens is positioned between the objective lens and the fixing member. Thus, the optical recording/reproducing apparatus can be reduced in size and can improve the strength of the suspensions for supporting the objective-lens drive against disturbance vibration or impact caused when the optical recording/reproducing apparatus is dropped.

An optical head device has at least one upward-reflecting mirror, objective lenses, an objective lens actuator, and a moving mechanism. The upward-reflecting mirror receives an incident luminous flux having a wavelength emitted from a semiconductor, and changes its direction. The objective lenses having mutually different numerical apertures condense the luminous flux whose direction has been changed by the upward-reflecting mirror to radiate a condensed luminous flux onto an information recording medium. The objective lens actuator moves the objective lenses in the focus direction of the information recording medium so that the luminous flux incident on the information recording medium attains a focused state. The moving mechanism moves the upward-reflecting mirror so that the luminous flux is incident on the information recording medium via any one of the objective lenses.

An integrated unit in which a light source and a light emitting diode are combined into one component is fixed to an optical bench. Then, relative position adjustment of an objective lens actuator is carried out with respect to the optical bench so that a desired detection signal can be obtained through reflected light from a disk information recording medium and then the objective lens actuator is fixed. The relative position adjustment of the integrated unit is no longer required and it is no longer necessary preliminarily to provide a margin for adjusting the integrated unit. Thus, an optical head can be reduced in size and thickness.

An optical head includes the following: a light beam separator (35) that includes substantial interference regions for light that is reflected from an information recording medium and travels in a straight path and ±first-order diffracted light produced by information tracks of the information recording medium, and diffracts each of plural light beams in regions (32a, 32b) of the substantial interference regions, where the amount of light is changed by a change in the relative angle between the information recording medium and the objective lens and by a shift of the objective lens in the radial direction of the information recording medium; a light-receiving element (36a, 36b) for receiving the light beam that is reflected by the information recording medium and separated by the light beam separator (35); and an arithmetic circuit that corrects a value of an electrical signal detected by the light-receiving element (36a, 36b) in accordance with a radial position signal corresponding to the amount of shift of the objective lens in the radial direction of the information recording medium, and detects the relative angle between the information recoding medium and the objective lens.
摘要:
A reflecting mirror and an optical bench are placed on an external jig provided with a mirror holding portion for maintaining the reflecting mirror, and then the reflecting mirror and the optical bench are bonded and fixed, thus obtaining an optical head. An adhesion reference plane for the reflecting mirror is no longer required in the optical bench, thus reducing the size and cost of the optical bench. The mounting precision is high and stable. Further, the reflecting mirror is bonded and fixed at the vicinities of the approximate centers of its two opposed side faces and therefore the variation in orientation of the reflecting mirror due to expansion or contraction of an adhesive is lessened, thus achieving a highly-reliable optical head excellent in environmental stability characteristics.
