Above-mentioned support 401 is installed in the rear side 405a of the mainboard 405 that is included in the chassis 315, and has the insertion opening 406 that is formed on wherein, and the end of guide rail 316 is inserted into inserts in the opening 406.Support 401 makes the end of insertion guide rail 316 wherein by insertion opening 406, and as shown in Figure 12, spring 402 is arranged on wherein.Support 401 also has the threaded hole 407 that is formed on insertion opening 406 bottoms, adjusts screw 403 and is inserted in the threaded hole 407.
Spring 402 is cylindrical disc springs and to lower compression guide rail 316.Adjusting screw 403 is inserted in the threaded hole 407 that is formed in support 401 bottoms and the downside against guide rail 316 at its top.
Above-mentioned deflection adjusting mechanism 400 inserts the height that length in the supports 401 is adjusted guide rail 316 by adjusting described adjustment screw 403.Like this, can adjust between the signal recording surface that makes object lens 312 that light beam focuses on and CD 302 angular relationship so that light beam vertically incide on the signal recording surface.
But the thickness of deflection adjusting mechanism 400 is to realize required thinner of CD drive and a problem of compact design more.Promptly, if for example to be suitable for thickness be that 9.5 millimeters hard disk drive is to reduce the thickness of CD drive itself to the thickness of VDV-ROM drive enclosure, so only can reduce the adjustment surplus of guide rail 316 height, this is because the height of the parts of CD drive is fixed.Therefore, the thickness that reduces CD drive is difficult to.
Here it should be noted, be included in the DC motor 335 that picks up in the travel mechanism 318 and comprise the housing 338 that is essentially rectangle that housing 338 integral body (comprising width) cover chassis 315, as shown in Fig. 6 A.Therefore, as shown in Fig. 6 B, housing 338 has the thickness equal widths (for example, 6 millimeters) with chassis 315.
In addition, the thickness that picks up travel mechanism 318 is to realize required thinner of CD drive and a problem of compact design more.Promptly, if for example to be suitable for thickness be that 9.5 millimeters hard disk drive is to reduce the thickness of CD drive itself to the thickness of VDV-ROM drive enclosure, the whole housing 338 that utilizes sheet metal to cover DC motor 335 so will be difficult to make the thickness of CD drive to be reduced to 9.5 millimeters, and this is because the height of the parts of CD drive is fixed.
It should be noted, in above-mentioned optical pickup units 304, actuated element 333 be by make such as the resilient material of sheet spring etc. and utilize disc spring compressing copulational protuberance 334 so that copulational protuberance 334 always with the screw-threaded engagement of guide spiro rod 331.Therefore, progressively move to desired location in order to utilize the DC motor 335 that is provided predetermined square wave pulse to make to pick up pedestal 317, copulational protuberance 334 must be movably and can not throw off with the screw thread on the guide spiro rod 331.Therefore, actuated element 333 should make its copulational protuberance 334 be bonded under the effect of powerful acting force in the screw thread on the guide spiro rod 331.
But owing to only provide lower moment of torsion as the DC motor 335 of step motor, if actuated element 333 is engaged with under the effect of very strong acting force in the screw thread on the guide spiro rod 331, guide spiro rod 331 can not rotate so, can not fast moving thereby pick up pedestal 317.
On the other hand, if be applied to the reaction force attenuation on the actuated element 333, copulational protuberance 334 will be thrown off the screw thread on the guide spiro rod 331 so, the square wave pulse of the step of predetermined quantity supplies to DC motor 335 and can not make and pick up pedestal 317 and move to preposition, picks up pedestal 317 location thereby can not make inconveniently.
Here it should be noted, in disk drive 300, because the disc holder of being made by PPE 303, the optical pickup units 304 that is fabricated from iron are bonded with each other with cap member 343 made of aluminum and are in the same place, therefore when these parts have higher temperature, their thermal linear expansion coefficient difference each other will make each part distortion.Promptly, as mentioned above, disc holder 303 is by making such as the rigid material of PPE (polyphenylene oxide), the chassis 315 that is contained in the optical pickup units 304 in the disc holder 303 is made by iron (Fe), and is installed in 315 tops, chassis and is made by aluminium (Al) by the cap member 343 that the opening in the disc holder 303 344 exposes.That is, the linear expansion coefficient of these disc holder 303, chassis 315 and cap member 343 is different each other.Particularly, the linear expansion coefficient of PPE is 2.8 * 10 -5/ mm ℃, and the linear expansion coefficient of aluminium is 2.4 * 10 -5/ mm ℃, the linear expansion coefficient of iron is 1.2 * 10 -5/ mm ℃.
When disk drive 300 is driven, when the temperature of disc holder 303, chassis 315 and cap member 343 raises, because there is such difference in the linear expansion coefficient aspect, that is,, the difference of thermal shrinkage aspect twists because producing in disc holder 303, chassis 315 and the cap member 343 each.Particularly, aluminum cap member 343 from the side of opening 344 towards CD 302 warpages and in some cases can with the signal recording surface sliding contact that is received in the CD 302 the recess 341.Especially, owing between the bottom of first wall 345 and cap member 343, have a clearance C (see figure 3) of determining, so cap member 343 will bend towards clearance C.In addition because first wall 345 is to be provided with along the neighboring of CD 302, thereby will produce bigger axial runout, might with cap member 343 sliding contacts.
Here it should be noted, in above-mentioned disk drive 300, be provided for disc holder 303 is supported on supporting mechanism 360 in the drive body 301, utilize ejector button 375 that engaging mechanism 362 and copulational protuberance 365 are thrown off.If data be written in the CD 302 or from CD 302 during reading of data mistake press by ejector button 375, disc holder 303 and drive body 301 are thrown off mutually, may produce the fault that data write or read.
Here should also be noted that, prevent that FPC310 is stuck between the rear side 302a of drive body 301 and disc holder 303 in order to be accommodated in the drive body 301 in disc holder 303, making FPC310 be formed with rigidity can be with first arm 351 of position change.
That is, when disc holder 303 is outside drive body 301, as shown in Figure 11 A, between disc holder 303 and drive body 301, has gap 356.Therefore, when disc holder 303 is accommodated in the drive body 301, if the end 351a of flexible FPC310 bends to 356 belows, gap, as shown in Figure 13, FPC310 will be stuck between disc holder 303 and the drive body 301.
Therefore, FPC310 has attached to the coating 357 on the end 351a of second arm 351.Coating 357 is compared the rigidity of the end 351a that has increased second arm 351 with rearward end 351b.Therefore, disc holder 303 outside being ejected into drive body 301 prevents FPC310 below the higher 351a place, end of its rigidity bends to gap 356 when being accommodated in the drive body 301 once more, and the flexible rearward end 351b bending of the low rigidity of second arm 351 so that disc holder 303 be moved to certainly in the drive body 301.
But, when disc holder 303 is contained in the drive body 301 fully, having attached to the coating 357FPC310 on the end of second arm 351 to make the sweep 355 of its second arm 351 shift to end 351a, and thereby as shown in Figure 11 C, make sweep 355 be formed on be arranged at optical pickup units 304 on the coupling part that links to each other of connector 354 near the position.The closer to the coupling part that links to each other with connector 354, the load on the sweep 355 is big more.But in order to make the coupling part and the distance between the sweep 355 that link to each other with connector 354 bigger, FPC310 should have very long length, thereby has increased manufacturing cost.In addition, increased rigidity, thereby also increased the load of end 351a attached to the coating 357 on the end 351a of second arm 351.In addition, because the thickness of the drive body 301 of disk drive 300 is minimized to satisfy the thin designing requirement of the main process equipment that uses disk drive 300, when drive body 301 is designed to be thin, the curvature of sweep 355 is bigger, thereby the load on the sweep 355 is also bigger.
When disc holder 303 is inserted and At time of eject repeatedly, and apply bigger load on second arm 351 of FPC310, the end 351a of second arm 351 will rupture and be formed on circuit pattern among the FPC310 with destroyed at every turn.

The coupling part 58 that links to each other with iron core 45 is formed with the projection 58a that can insert by the connecting hole 45a that is formed in the iron core 45 in the one side.When utilizing pressuring piece 46 to make pivotal part 42 when the direction opposite with arrow E pivots, coupling part 58 makes iron core 45 shift to coil 44 on the core.When iron core 45 was on the core in the coil 44, pivotal part 42 kept towards the direction opposite with arrow E.
In addition, contact portion 57 resilient movement of oppressed 46 compressing but slit 61 is formed between contact portion 57 and the coupling part 58.Therefore, being formed on projection 60 on the contact portion 57 allows pressuring pieces 46 that pivotal part 42 is pivoted and pivotal part 42 is on the core in the coil 44 iron core 45, and when 57 oppressed 46 of contact portions were excessively exerted pressure, slit 61 can come absorption pressure by making contact portion 57 deflections.
The pivotal part 42 of being oppressed by torsion-coil spring 59 in the direction of the arrow E in Figure 19 makes range of pivot restriction projection 55 pivot to contact with the bearing part 51 at junction surface 41 and junction surface 41 is pivoted along the direction opposite with arrow D along the direction of arrow E.Like this, throw off with the copulational protuberance 11 on the Lower Half 9 that is arranged on equipment body 7 vertically and disc holder 5 is ejected out to outside the equipment body 7 bonding part 48 at junction surface 41.
In addition, be inserted in the equipment body 7 and during contact portion 57 oppressed 46 (below will be described in greater detail) compressing, pivotal part 42 pivots along the direction opposite with arrow E when disc holder 5.When the iron core 45 that links to each other with contact portion 57 is on the core in the coil 44, range of pivot restriction projection 55 along the direction opposite with arrow E so that the direction of the arrow D of junction surface 41 in Figure 20 pivot.Like this, the bonding part 48 at junction surface 41 is engaged with on the copulational protuberance 11 and disc holder 5 is in the equipment body 7.
Make pivotal part 42 point to the magnetic element of iron core 45 for taking the shape of the letter U basically of the direction opposite with arrow E.It has a pair ofly can be inserted into the insertion axle 63 in the coil 44 on the core, and has the connecting hole 45a that is formed in its cardinal extremity part.By the projection 58a on the coupling part 58 that is formed on pivotal part 42 is inserted among the connecting hole 45a, iron core 45 links to each other with pivotal part 42.
Can make the insertion axle 63 of iron core 45 lead to coil 44 on wherein the core and have coil 66 on hollow core of being wrapped in 65, insert axle 63 and can be inserted in the hollow core 65.In addition, coil 44 comprises and can insert the magnet (not shown) of axle 63 away from the insertion end of inserting axle 63 along the direction magnetic attraction of arrow F among Figure 19 on the core.When pivotal part 42 pivots and the insertion axle 63 of iron core 45 when being inserted on the core in the coil 44 more deeply along the direction opposite with arrow E, as shown in Figure 20, insert on axle 63 cores magnet in the coil 44 and fix.In addition, when electric current is provided for coil 66, coil 44 will be eliminated magnetic attraction and insert the magnetic force of magnet of axle 63 to discharge iron core 45 on the core.Like this, when iron core 45 was released, pivotal part 42 direction along arrow E under the effect of the acting force of torsion-coil spring 59 pivoted.
Contact portion 57 against pivotal part 42 comprises with the pressuring piece 46 of oppressing pivotal part 42: the arm 70 that is arranged on copulational protuberance 11 compressings on the equipment body 7 vertically; Be arranged on the studding 71 of the cardinal extremity of arm 70, pressuring piece 46 pivots around studding 71; And compressing part 72, the contact portion 57 of compressing part 72 compressing pivotal parts 42 is so that pivotal part 42 pivots.
Pressuring piece 46 can pivot around studding 71 along the direction of the arrow G among Figure 19 or the direction opposite with arrow G, and torsion-coil spring 73 is wrapped in the position of intersecting with the moving track that can make arm 70 and copulational protuberance 11 that pressuring piece 46 is remained on as shown in Figure 19 on the studding 71.Promptly, after arm 70 is engaged projection 11 compressings, utilize torsion-coil spring 73 to make pressuring piece 46 get back to initial position, thereby even pivot so that pivotal part 42 pivots or can make pivotal part 42 along the direction pivot opposite with arrow G when contact portion 57 is conflicted with the pivotal part 42 that pivots along the direction of arrow E along the direction opposite with arrow E along the direction of arrow G.
The torsion-coil spring 73 of position of restriction pressuring piece 46 be wrapped on the studding 71 and clamping element 75 that the fixing and other end of oppressed 46 at one end is formed on the rear side 5c of disc holder 5 fixing.Clamping element 75 comprises semicircle keeper 75a and rectangle keeper 75b, has constant gap between semicircle keeper 75a and the rectangle keeper 75b.Torsion-coil spring 73 is inserted in the gap at its other end place and is wrapped on the semicircle keeper 75a.Because keeper 75a be a semicircle, and keeper 75b is a rectangle, so torsion-coil spring 73 can not be wrapped on the keeper 75b, but only is wrapped on the semicircle keeper 75a.Therefore, torsion-coil spring 73 applies the best use of power on pressuring piece 46, so that pressuring piece 46 is engaged projection 11 compressing and can gets back to the initial position that the moving track of arm 70 and copulational protuberance 11 intersects along the pivotal part 42 that the direction or the direction opposite with arrow G of arrow G pivots.
What note is, the position in the zone that pivots near arm 70 with in a side relative with the direction of arrow G, be provided with the backstop 80 that can stop arm 70 excessive pivotals.For example, backstop 80 is arranged on the cylindrical projections on the rear side 5c of disc holder 5.When the contact portion 57 of the pivotal part 42 that pivots along the direction of arrow E with will be when the pressuring piece 46 that the direction opposite with arrow G pivots be conflicted, as shown in phantom in Figure 19, backstop 80 limits arms 70 along the direction excessive pivotal opposite with arrow G.Like this, pressuring piece 46 can guarantee that arm 70 can get back to the moving track of copulational protuberance 11.
Particularly, if arm 70 is not got back to the moving track of copulational protuberance 11, copulational protuberance 11 will not allow arm 70 (moving) when disc holder 5 is inserted in the equipment body 7.Like this, pressuring piece 46 can not make pivotal part 42 can not pivot to be bonded on the copulational protuberance 11 along the direction of arrow D along the direction pivot and the junction surface 41 of arrow E.Like this, the range of pivot of the arm 70 of pressuring piece 46 with backstop of being subjected to 80 restriction must be able to be got back to the moving track of copulational protuberance 11 to guarantee arm 70.
In the above-mentioned engaging mechanism 20 that comprises copulational protuberance 11, junction surface 41, pivotal part 42, iron core 45 and pressuring piece 46, in the time of outside disc holder 5 is positioned at equipment body 7, pivotal part 42 is oppressed along the direction of arrow E, the retaining wall 81 that is set on the disc holder 5 keeps, and pivots along the direction of arrow E as shown in Figure 19 thereby limit it.In addition, the range of pivot restriction projection 55 of junction surface 41 by pivotal part 42 makes its bearing part 51 pivot and its bonding part 48 is remained on from the position of the moving track withdrawal of copulational protuberance 11 along the opposite direction of arrow D.Therefore, Lower Half 9 with equipment body 7 of copulational protuberance disposed thereon vertically 11 is thrown off mutually with disc holder 5, the rear wall 9a of Lower Half 9 is subjected to being set at the compressing of the ejection element 30 of disc spring 28 compressings on the disc holder 5, and disc holder 5 is ejected into outside the equipment body 7.
When the user put into CD 4 in the recess 15 of disc holder 5 and is inserted into disc holder 5 in the equipment body 7, the direction that is arranged on the arrow H of copulational protuberance 11 in Figure 19 on the Lower Half 9 was advanced and is contacted with the arm 70 of pressuring piece 46.Like this, the direction of the arrow G of arm 70 in Figure 20 pivots.When arm 70 pivots like this, the contact portion 57 of the pivotal part 42 that compressing part 72 compressings of pressuring piece 46 will pivot along the direction opposite with arrow E among Figure 20.Like this, the iron core 45 that links to each other with the coupling part 58 of pivotal part 42 will make and insert axle 63 and be inserted on the core in the coil 44 dearly and be set at the magnet magnetic attraction in the coil 44 on the core.
At this moment, pressuring piece 46 compressing be formed on the contact portion 57 with compressing part 72 contacts of pressuring piece 46 projection 60 so that pivotal part 42 pivot along the direction opposite with arrow E, thereby make iron core 45 can be set at the magnet magnetic attraction in the coil 44 on the core.In addition, be formed on the contact portion 57 of pivotal part 42 and the slit 61 between the coupling part 58 and make contact portion 57 resilient movement.Therefore, when excessively oppressing for oppressed 46, but contact portion 57 deflections are with the pressure of excessive resorption.
Like this, the acting force that overcomes the torsion-coil spring 59 that the direction of the arrow E in Figure 20 provides makes iron core 45 and pivotal part 42 pivot along the direction opposite with arrow E among Figure 20.When the range of pivot of pivotal part 42 restriction projection 55 when the direction opposite with arrow E pivots, junction surface 41 has its range of pivot that increases along the direction of arrow D and as shown in Figure 20, and the acting force of the torsion-coil spring 52 that the direction of the arrow D in Figure 20 provides is positioned on the moving track of copulational protuberance 11 bonding part 48.
When disc holder 5 is inserted in the equipment body 7 more deeply, the direction of the arrow H of copulational protuberance 11 in Figure 20 is advanced, inclined-plane 49a is pivoted on the free end of the main body 49 at junction surface 41 along the direction opposite with arrow D, and be bonded on the bonding part 48.Like this, the Lower Half 9 of disc holder 5 and equipment body 7 is bonded with each other.
At this moment, as shown in Figure 18, ejection element 30 pushes back and moves towards front end 5a from the rear wall 9a of Lower Half 9, utilizes its flange 30a that disc spring 28 is pressed to front end 5a simultaneously.Because disc spring 28 makes its end at front end 5a place be fixed by the wall 29a of spring compartment 29, so it is oppressed by flange 30a, can make flange 30a be pressed towards the acting force of rear end 5d thereby be compressed with maintenance.That is, disc holder 5 is fixed on the appropriate position in the equipment body 7, simultaneously Lower Half 9 is pressed to rear end 5d and is arranged on junction surface 41 on the copulational protuberance 11 on the Lower Half 9 with joint.
For with ejecting in the disc holder 5 slave unit main bodys 7, provide the control circuit that comes from the user's control module command signal that is arranged on the disc holder 5 and be built in the magnetic force of the magnet in the coil 44 on the core with elimination for coil on the core 44 provides electric current.Like this, iron core is released.Therefore, pivotal part 42 pivots along the direction opposite with arrow E among Figure 19 under the effect of the acting force of torsion-coil spring 59.When range of pivot restriction projection 55 when the direction of arrow E pivots, junction surface 41 pivots and is withdrawn from the moving track of copulational protuberance 11 in its bonding part 48 along the direction opposite with arrow D.Like this, copulational protuberance 11 is thrown off with bonding part 48, so that the Lower Half 9 of disc holder and equipment body 7 is thrown off mutually.
Then, its free end is urged the retroaction that ejection element 30 on the rear wall 9a of Lower Half 9 is provided the acting force of the disc spring 28 that is equivalent to come from rear wall 9a, thus make disc spring 28 by flange 30a back pressure to front end 5a.Because disc spring 28 makes its end at front end 5a place be fixed by the wall 29a of spring compartment 29, so it is extracted and simultaneously compartment 29a is pressed to front end 5a.Like this, disc holder 5 is extruded by the open end towards equipment body 7, and its front end 5a is ejected towards the open end of equipment body 7.
What note is, owing to make the compressing part 72 of pressuring piece 46 conflict with the contact portion 57 of pivotal part 42 and therefore make when oppressing part 72 along the direction pivot opposite with arrow G when pivotal part 42 pivots along the direction of arrow E, therefore arm 70 is also kept by backstop 80, can avoid arm 70 excessive pivotals and is not on the moving track of copulational protuberance 11.In addition, being wrapped in torsion-coil spring 73 on the pressuring piece 46 can be formed on holding element 75 on the rear side 5c of disc holder 5 and remain on suitable position and thereby provide best acting force for pressuring piece 46.Therefore, even when pressuring piece 46 has been engaged 42 compressings of projection 11 and pivotal part and along the direction of arrow G or when the direction opposite with arrow G pivots, pressuring piece 46 is got back to the initial position that the moving track of arm 70 and copulational protuberance 11 shown in the solid line among Figure 19 intersects.
What note is, the projection 60 on the above-mentioned contact portion 57 that is formed on pivotal part 42 can be formed on the compressing part 72 of pressuring piece 46 or on pivotal part 42 and the pressuring piece 46.

Relatively be provided for the paired leading axle 105 and 106 that direct light pick device 103 moves with the opening 112 in the chassis 101.Leading axle 105 (106) is thinner than major part in its opposite two ends.For example, the end diameter of leading axle 105 (106) is about 1.2 millimeters.The deflection adjusting mechanism 109 that utilization can be adjusted the vertical slope of leading axle 105 and 106 makes leading axle 105 (106) supported in its opposite two ends.Leading axle 105 and 106 is made by conductive material.Because the adjustment screw that is used in combination with each leading axle is also made by conductive material, the ground connection of therefore adjusting screw can be removed the electric charge on leading axle 105 and 106.
As shown in Figure 21, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 is arranged on four positions corresponding to the opposed end of paired leading axle 105 and 106.As can be seen from Figure 22, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 comprises: be arranged on the housing 125 in the chassis 101; Be arranged in the housing 125 and oppress the flexible member 126 of leading axle 105 and 106; And cross the adjustment screw 127 that leading axle 105 (106) is arranged on a side relative with flexible member 126, described adjustment screw 127 is compeled leading axle 105 (106) from a side pressure relative with flexible member 126.
Housing 125 is arranged between the upside and downside 101a and 101b on chassis 101.In addition, be formed with patchhole 128 in the housing 125, an end of leading axle 105 (106) is inserted in the patchhole 128.In housing 125, accommodate the flexible member 126 of compressing leading axle 105 and 106.The adjustment screw 127 that is inserted in the threaded hole 129 among the downside 101b that is formed on chassis 101 is exposed in the housing 125.
Flexible member 126 for example is the volute spring that is essentially taper.The less end 126a of the diameter of flexible member 126 contacts with the upper surface of leading axle 105 (106), and the cardinal extremity 126b that its diameter is bigger contacts with the upper wall of housing 125.
When leading axle 105 (106) was adjusted screw 127 compressings, flexible member 126 was pressed and therefore is compressed between the inwall of leading axle 105 (106) and housing 125.At this moment, flexible member 126 is compressed to 1 millimeters long or littler length, and it moves in the bigger cardinal extremity 126b of diameter against the less end 126a of the diameter of leading axle 105 (106) simultaneously.Therefore, compare with the Elastic Cylindrical element that can be compressed to 1 millimeter or bigger length, the flexible member 126 that is used for the present invention can be compressed to littler length.Like this, housing 125 integral body can be designed to have the form of less thickness, and for example thickness is about 4 millimeters, and chassis 101 can be designed to be thinner.
In addition, adjusting screw 127 is inserted in the threaded hole 129 among the downside 101b that is formed on chassis 101 and has free end with the following side contacts of leading axle 105 (106).Extend into length in the housing 125 by adjusting described adjustment screw 127, for example can ± 0.4 millimeter gradient of adjusting leading axle 105 and 106 for one-level.
What note is that adjusting screw 127 is nickel plating or copper-plated so that it has electric conductivity.Adjust screw 127 also as the earth conductor of leading axle 105 (106), this is because it links to each other with the downside 101b on the chassis 101 that is in earth potential and against the lower surface of leading axle 105 (106).
Above-mentioned deflection adjusting mechanism 109 is arranged on four positions corresponding to the opposed end of each leading axle 105 and 106.In the assembling process of optical pickup units 6, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 is used in combination with the deflection adjustment dish of the gradient that is used to adjust leading axle 105 and 106 so that vertically incide the signal recording surface of deflection adjustment dish from the light beam of object lens 108 projections, and therefore adjusts the gradient relation between the signal recording surface of object lens 108 and deflection adjustment dish.
After utilizing deflection adjusting mechanism 109 to finish deflection to adjust, utilize cementing agent fixedly flexible member 126 to prevent the angle of deviation change.That is, as shown in Figure 23, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 has the cementing agent filling orifice 131 and 132 among the upside 101a that is formed on housing 125 and chassis 101.Cementing agent filling orifice 131 and 132 positions that form are corresponding to the position of flexible member 126.For example, the cementing agent 133 of ultraviolet setting type is injected in cementing agent filling orifice 131 and 132.
In the assembling process of optical pickup units 6, utilize the adjustment screw 127 of deflection adjusting mechanism 109 to adjust the gradient of leading axle 105 and 106 and then inject cementing agent 133 so that flexible member 126 sclerosis from cementing agent filling orifice 131 and 132.Like this, owing to can utilize cementing agent 133 to make flexible member 126 sclerosis, even therefore flexible member 126 is owing to plastic yield takes place in compression, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 also can keep the suitable gradient of leading axle 105 and 106.
What note is, is formed on the cementing agent filling orifice 131 in chassis 101 and the housing 125 and 132 diameter is very little and a kind of like this liquid adhesive 133 of injecting by their will be owing to its surface tension can not be from the chassis 101 overflows.
In addition, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 uses oval section volute spring as flexible member 126, but as shown in Figure 24, it can use the silicon rubber hollow circuit cylinder to replace.One end of silicon rubber hollow circuit cylinder contacts with the upper surface of leading axle 105 (106), and the other end contacts with the inwall of housing 125.
When leading axle 105 and 106 was adjusted screw 127 compressings, silicon rubber flexible member 126 was compressed between the inwall of leading axle 105 (106) and housing 125.At this moment, make flexible member 126 compressions by dwindling the volume that is compressed to the part in the flexible member 126.In addition, after finishing the deflection adjustment, utilize by cementing agent filling orifice 131 and the 132 ultraviolet ray setting type cementing agents 133 that inject and make flexible member 126 sclerosis.Like this, owing to utilize cementing agent 133 to make flexible member 126 harden, even therefore flexible member 126 owing to being adjusted screw 127 compressions plastic yield takes place, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 also can keep the suitable gradient of leading axle 105 and 106.
What note is, make flexible member 126 have electric conductivity flexible member 126 to be linked to each other with the downside 101b on the chassis 101 that is in earth potential and flexible member 126 is contacted with the lower surface of leading axle 105 (106), also can make leading axle 105 and 106 be used as an earth conductor by add a kind of adjuvant for silicon rubber flexible member 126.
In above-mentioned deflection adjusting mechanism 109, the housing 125 that wherein is provided with flexible member 126 and adjustment screw 127 is between the upside 101a and downside 101b on chassis 101.Like this, the space of elastic elements 126 is flattened, compare with the conventional chassis that the support member that is used in the leading axle of deflection adjusting mechanism by deep draw is formed at wherein, this has caused the thinner design and the simpler technology of the manufacturing on chassis 101.
Be used to make optical take-up apparatus 103 with respect to CD 4 move radially pick up travel mechanism 104 be arranged on leading axle 105 near.As shown in Figure 21 and Figure 25, pick up travel mechanism 104 and comprise guide spiro rod 140 adjacent with leading axle 105 and that be provided with along the radial parallel of CD 4 in leading axle 105 and the feeding motor 141 that guide spiro rod 140 is rotated.
Guide spiro rod 140 makes at the place, end of its axial region 140a and is supported in the bearing 143 that can rotate.Be formed with on the axial region 140a of guide spiro rod 140 and slidably be bonded on the screw thread 144 that is arranged on the joint element 120 that picks up on the pedestal 114.When utilizing feeding motor 141 that guide spiro rod 140 is rotated, guide spiro rod 140 can utilize joint element 120 to make to pick up pedestal 114 and move radially with respect to CD 4.
The feeding motor 141 that guide spiro rod 140 is rotated is the DC motors that adopt step motor.By provide square wave to make the 141 step-by-step movement work of feeding motor for feeding motor 141, guide spiro rod 140 is rotated so that pick up pedestal 114 and move radially with respect to CD 4.
The feeding motor 141 that guide spiro rod 140 is rotated is DC motors.Unless since the DC motor do not provide any moment of torsion it with high-speed rotation, therefore, each contact point that picks up travel mechanism 104 will be subjected to heavy wear.In addition, pick up pedestal 114 if the feeding motor links to each other with guide spiro rod 140 by gear mechanism and move, will send very big gimp so.
Therefore, the feeding motor among the present invention 141 uses a kind of stepping motors.By for feeding motor 141 provides square wave, feeding motor 141 makes and picks up pedestal 114 and move radially with respect to CD 4.
As shown in Figure 25 A and Figure 25 B, feeding motor 141 has motor shell 145, and motor shell 145 does not have upper wall and lower wall.Be formed with opening 142 in the motor shell 145, the coil that is mounted in it 146 by opening 142 from the exposed at both sides up and down of motor 145 outside.Because opening 142 do not have upper wall and lower wall, so motor shell 145 can be designed to be thinner, and for example wall thickness is 5.1 millimeters.
Feeding motor 141 and guide spiro rod 140 are installed on the framework 148, and are installed on the chassis 101, and framework 148 is installed between them.Framework 148 comprises the coupling part 148a that is essentially rectangular plate shape and the fixedly sidepiece 148b that is formed by the sweep of coupling part 148a, the outstanding sidepiece of guide spiro rod 140 and the bearing at end 143 of support guide screw rod 140 are linked to each other, fixedly be formed with clamping screw hole 149 among the sidepiece 148b, the clamping screw that is used for installation chassis 101 is inserted in clamping screw hole 149.
As shown in Figure 25, utilize clamping screw the travel mechanism 104 of picking up with said structure is mounted the suitable position that the framework 148 that guide spiro rod 140 and feeding motor 141 are installed on it is fixed on chassis 101.
Make framework 148 be fixed on picking up in the travel mechanism 104 on the chassis 101 therein, as shown in Figure 29, when chassis 101 was between cap member 90 (below will describe in detail) that covers optical pickup units 6 from the top and the base plate 91 that covers optical pickup units 6 from the top, the opening 142 that is formed on the both sides up and down of motor shell 145 was sealed by cap member 90 and base plate 91.Like this, cap member 90 and base plate 91 are as the yoke that can seal coil 146 magnetic fields that are contained in the motor shell 145.Like this, the fringe magnetic field that can prevent to come from feeding motor 141 exerts an adverse impact and prevents and enter the motor shell 145 such as foreign matters such as dusts for write and read information signal from CD 4.It should be noted that the opening 142 in motor shell 145 can be by cap member 90 and base plate 91 complete closed and owing to the dimensional tolerence of each parts makes some gaps that may form between cap member 90 and the base plate 91 also allow.
In addition, the motor shell 145 that is used for feeding motor 141 descends both-side opening in picking up travel mechanism 104 thereon, and the heat that produces in the motor shell 145 dissipates easily.Particularly, in picking up travel mechanism 104, when picking up pedestal 114 when stationary state moves, friction factor is important, therefore needs big moment of torsion.But in case after picking up pedestal 114 and moving, friction factor reduces and moment of torsion correspondingly reduces.Then, the pedestal 114 that picks up in picking up travel mechanism 104 is provided with enough moments of torsion to prevent that picking up pedestal 114 produces any displacement (even twisting moment).In the operating process of recorder/player 1, even twisting moment always is applied in and feeding motor 141 always is provided electric current.Therefore, the motor shell 145 that is used for feeding motor 141 is designed to descend the unlimited form in both sides overheated to prevent feeding motor 141 thereon, is subjected to from the harmful effect that heat brought of feeding motor 141 dissipations thereby prevent to move the operation of picking up pedestal 114.
In addition, pick up in the travel mechanism 104, descend both sides to open wide thereon owing to be used for the motor shell 145 of feeding motor 141, so it is made thinner than chassis 101 above-mentioned.Like this, owing to limited the thickness that the chassis 101 of picking up travel mechanism 104 is installed on it, so recorder/player 1 can be designed to be thinner.
As shown in Figure 26 to 28, utilize clamping screw make be formed on guide spiro rod 140 on the joint element 120 that engages of screw thread 144 be fixed at one end place and pick up on the pedestal 114 and to change linearity into the rotation with guide spiro rod 140 in its other end place is bonded on screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140 mobile.
Joint element 120 comprises the copulational protuberance 151 that is bonded in the screw thread that is formed on the guide spiro rod 140, pick up near the pedestal 114 and be used to hold the compartment 153 that the gap limits element 512 with being arranged on, described compartment 153 makes copulational protuberance 151 remain on the distance that can guarantee to be bonded on the guide spiro rod 140.
Copulational protuberance 151 is arranged on the sidewall 153a that is in guide spiro rod 140 1 sides in the compartment 153 and goes up to stretch to guide spiro rod 140.The gradient of joint element 151 equals the gradient of the screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140.In addition, joint element 151 basically with screw thread 144 with wide.
Copulational protuberance 151 is bonded in the screw thread 144 and makes screw thread reach certain depth, and for example the degree of depth is 0.3 millimeter.When guide spiro rod 140 rotates, copulational protuberance 151 guide spiro rod 140 axially on move along screw thread 144.
The compartment 153 that is formed with copulational protuberance 151 on it is recesses that the cross section is essentially C shape and open-top.In compartment 153, copulational protuberance 155 and 156 is respectively formed on the sidewall 153b of the sidewall 153a of guide spiro rod 140 and leading axle 105. Copulational protuberance 155 and 156 can prevent that the gap from limiting element 152 and breaking away from compartment 153.To limit element 152 to the gap below is described in detail.
Connect on the coboundary of sidewall 153b that surface 157 is formed on leading axle 105 so that joint element 120 with pick up pedestal 114 and link to each other.Connecting surface 157 is being arranged at guide spiro rod 140 and is picking up to extend on the leading axle 105 between the pedestal 114 and pick up above the pedestal 114 and utilize clamping screw to make it be connected to the upside that picks up pedestal 114.
Being contained in the compartment 153 gap with supporting side walls 153a and 153b, to limit element 152 be to be made by the sheet metal that is essentially C shape of rigidity.As shown in Figure 27, the gap limits slit 158a and the 159a that element 152 has the close center that is respectively formed at supporting walls 158 and 159.Slit 158a and 159a be vertical the extension from the upper end.Because the copulational protuberance 155 and 156 that is arranged on sidewall 153a and the 153b is kept by slit 158a and 159a respectively, can prevent that therefore the gap from limiting element 152 and breaking away from compartment 153.
As shown in Figure 28, when the gap limits element 152 and is accommodated in the compartment 153, limit the gap that has between the supporting walls 158 and 159 of element 152 less than the depth of engagement between the screw thread on copulational protuberance 151 and the guide spiro rod 140 (for example the degree of depth is 0.1 millimeter) in the sidewall 153a of compartment 153 and 153b and gap.Therefore, the sidewall 153a of compartment 153 is not being pressed under the situation of guide spiro rod 140, making the gap limit element 152 and be received.In addition, because to limit element 152 are rigidity in the gap as mentioned above, though in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114 because the dimensional tolerence of joint element 120 makes the mismatch error that may exist between copulational protuberance 151 and the screw thread 144 can be limited in the gap (0.1 millimeter) between the supporting walls 158 of the sidewall 153a of compartment 153 and gap qualification element 152.Like this, joint element 120 prevents that the mismatch error of copulational protuberance 151 is greater than the degree of depth (0.3 millimeter) of screw thread 144 and prevent guide spiro rod 140 and copulational protuberance 151 is thrown off mutually in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114.
In addition, in recorder/player involved in the present invention 1, joint element and be accommodated in gap in the compartment of joint element and limit the form that element can be as described below and form.As shown in Figure 30, the joint element of representing with Reference numeral 220 comprises: compartment 222, the outside of compartment 222 is formed with copulational protuberance 221a and the 221b in the screw thread 144 of pair of engaging on guide spiro rod 140, accommodate in the compartment 222 can make copulational protuberance 221a and 221b be in guide spiro rod 140 on screw thread 144 keep the gap at position engaged places to limit element 223; And connect surface 225, utilize clamping screw to make to connect surface 225 to be fixed on the part of picking up pedestal 114 so that compartment with pick up pedestal 114 and link to each other.
Compartment 222 is recesses that the cross section is essentially C shape and open-top.Compartment 222 is by at the first side wall 226 that picks up pedestal 114 places, at guide spiro rod 140 places and second sidewall 227 relative with the first side wall 226 and form from the first side wall 226 outstanding a pair of compartment 228 and 229, these walls define one together wherein can hold the zone that the gap limits element 223, and the back will limit element 223 to the gap and be described in detail.Be formed with the inside maintenance projection 231 and 232 of direction on first and second sidewalls 226 and 227 respectively, keep projection 231 and 232 that the gap is limited element 223 and remain in the compartment 222.
Copulational protuberance 221a in a pair of screw thread 144 that is engaged with on the guide spiro rod 140 and 221b outwards are formed on second sidewall 227, the interval between the screw thread 144 on the bearing of trend of the axial region 140a that the interval between copulational protuberance 221a and the 221b is substantially equal at guide spiro rod 140.Copulational protuberance 221a and 221b form with the angle tilt ground of the screw thread 144 that is substantially equal to guide spiro rod 140.Copulational protuberance 221a and 221b are bonded in the screw thread 144 and reach the degree of depth of certain screw thread 144, and for example the degree of depth is 0.3 millimeter.Therefore, when guide spiro rod 140 rotated, copulational protuberance 221 upwards moved along screw thread 144 and in the footpath of guide spiro rod 140.
In addition, compartment 222 has the compartment 228 and 229 that development length is shorter than second sidewall 227, and second sidewall 227 is formed with thin cardinal extremity, therefore is formed with to make the hinge 233 of second sidewall 227 towards and away from guide spiro rod 140 deflections.Therefore, second sidewall 227 will be towards compartment 222 inner deflections, even thereby owing to the dimensional tolerence of joint element 220, pick up pedestal 114 vibration in moving process etc. and copulational protuberance 221a and 221b be crushed on the screw thread 144 of guide spiro rod 140 also can on guide spiro rod 140, not apply excessive load.Therefore, can guarantee guide spiro rod 140 smooth rotation and pick up pedestal 114 fast moving.
In addition, be formed with the opening 235 that is essentially rectangle on the bottom of compartment 222.Like this, because second sidewall 227 has respectively the side 227a that extends along guide spiro rod 140 that supported by a pair of hinge 233a and 233b and the cardinal extremity of 227b, therefore guarantee at the copulational protuberance 221a of an edge 227a with in the copulational protuberance 221b of another edge 227b can be bonded on screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140 independently.
On the other hand, copulational protuberance therein only by in the joint element of a hinge support, guarantees that paired copulational protuberance 221a and 221b can be bonded on the guide spiro rod 140 together to 221a and 221b.Therefore, if the dimensional tolerence of joint element 220 or pick up the vibration of pedestal 114 in moving process and make to exist between the gradient of gradient and one of copulational protuberance 221a and 221b of the screw thread on the guide spiro rod and conflict or a copulational protuberance is bonded in the screw thread forcefully, another copulational protuberance can not be bonded in the screw thread or can be bonded on the degree of depth that still reaches in the screw thread very little.
In the copulational protuberance 220 that is used for the present invention, the edge 227a of second sidewall 227 and 227b are supported by hinge 233a and 233b respectively at its cardinal extremity place, and paired copulational protuberance 221a and 221b are bonded in the screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140 independently.Therefore, even any one among copulational protuberance 221a and the 221b compatibly is not bonded in the screw thread 144, another copulational protuberance 221a or 221b are bound to be engaged with in the screw thread 144 and can not be subjected to the influence of the bad joint of a copulational protuberance.
The gap qualification element 223 that is contained in the compartment 222 is sheet metals that are essentially C shape of rigidity.The gap limits on the element 223 and is formed with paired first and second supporting walls 237 and 238, and each supporting walls has enough big size being received in the compartment 222, and supports second sidewall 227 when they are accommodated in the compartment 222.First and second supporting walls 237 and 238 have vertical slits 237a and the 238a that is formed on the center basically respectively, and the position of vertical slits 237a and 238a is corresponding to the maintenance projection 231 and 232 on first and second sidewalls 226 and 227 that are respectively formed on the compartment 222.When gap qualification element 223 was accommodated in the compartment 222, the maintenance projection 231 and 232 that is respectively formed on first and second sidewalls 226 and 227 was kept by slit 237a and 238a, thereby prevents that their break away from compartment 222.
Be contained in the compartment 222 for the gap being limited element 223, the horizontal length that is arranged on first supporting walls 237 that picks up pedestal 114 1 sides is shorter than from the interval between the outstanding compartment 228 and 229 of the first side wall 226.On the other hand, be arranged on second supporting walls 238 of guide spiro rod 140 1 sides and be formed with the right side and the left support member 240 that extends beyond the first side wall 237 towards the side of compartment 222, and the length of second supporting walls 238 is substantially equal to or greater than the horizontal length of second sidewall 227.
When the gap being limited element 223 and is contained in the compartment 222, first and second sidewalls 226 of compartment 222 and 227 and the gap limit and have the gap that is shorter than the depth of engagement (as shown in Figure 28, the degree of depth for example is 0.1 millimeter) in the screw thread 144 that copulational protuberance 221 is bonded on guide spiro rod 140 between first and second supporting walls 237 and 238 of element 223.Therefore, the gap limits element 223 and is accommodated in the compartment 222, and second sidewall 227 of compartment 222 can not pressed to guide spiro rod 140.In addition, because as mentioned above, it is rigidity that the gap limits element 223, though in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114 because the dimensional tolerence of joint element 220 makes the mismatch error that may exist between copulational protuberance 221 and the screw thread 144 can be limited in the gap (0.1 millimeter) between the supporting walls 238 of second sidewall 227 of compartment 222 and gap qualification element 223.Like this, joint element 220 prevents that the mismatch error of copulational protuberance 221 is greater than the degree of depth (0.3 millimeter) of screw thread 144 and prevent guide spiro rod 140 and copulational protuberance 221 is thrown off mutually in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114.
In addition, when the gap being limited element 223 and be contained in the compartment 222, as shown in Figure 31 and Figure 32, the support member 240 that is formed on second sidewall 238 can be at second sidewall 227 of whole horizontal width upper support compartment 222.If in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114 or the recorder/player 1 that comprises joint element 220 owing to error is dropped, the gap limits element 223 can alleviate the load that concentrates on the hinge 233 that supports second sidewall 227 by copulational protuberance 221a and the 221b that is bonded in the screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140.
Particularly, joint element 220 have the hinge 233 that forms by the cardinal extremity thickness that reduces second sidewall 227 so that second sidewall 227 towards and away from guide spiro rod 140 deflections.If recorder/player 1 drops owing to error and picks up pedestal 114 and slide fast on leading axle 105 and 106, being installed in the joint element 220 that picks up on the pedestal 114 will slide on guide spiro rod 140 fast.In this case, the fall impacting that picks up pedestal 114 will concentrate on the hinge 233 that supports second sidewall 227 which is provided with copulational protuberance 221a and 221b 221a and 221b by the copulational protuberance that is bonded in the screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140.Make second sidewall 227, the particularly right side of second sidewall 227 and left hand edge 227a and 227b distortion on I that fall impacting will be in Figure 32 or the direction of J, depart from suitable skew direction slightly.Being in the edge 227a of second sidewall 227 of distortion form and the deflection of 227b will produce excessive load on hinge 233, hinge 233 may rupture.
But in recorder/player involved in the present invention 1, second supporting walls 238 of gap qualification element 223 is provided with and is used to support the edge 227a of second sidewall 227 and the support member 240 of 227b.Therefore, even when recorder/player 1 drops load in Figure 32 arrow I or the direction of J be applied on the edge 227a and 227b of second sidewall 227, the support member 240 that the gap limits element 223 will support second sidewall 227, thereby alleviate the load that is applied on the hinge 223, therefore can prevent hinge 223 fractures.
In addition, similar with above-mentioned gap qualification element 223 as shown in Figure 33, can bend towards second sidewall 227 by the free end of support member and form gaps qualification elements.Similar with above-mentioned gap qualification element 223, the gap qualification element of representing with Reference numeral 250 has the cross section that is essentially C shape, and is formed with paired first and second supporting walls 251 and 252 that are used to support first and second sidewalls that are formed on the compartment 222 on it.First and second supporting walls 251 and 252 have slit 251a and the 252a that is formed on the center basically respectively, and the position of slit 251a and 252a is corresponding to the copulational protuberance 231 and 232 on first and second sidewalls 226 and 227 that are respectively formed on the compartment 222. Slit 251a and 252a be vertical the extension from the upper end.
In addition, in the gap limited element 250, the horizontal length of first supporting walls 251 was shorter than from the interval between the outstanding compartment 228 and 229 of the first side wall 226.On the other hand, be formed with the right side and the left support member 253 that extend beyond first supporting walls 251 towards compartment 222 on second supporting walls 252, and the length of second supporting walls 252 is substantially equal to or for the horizontal length of second sidewall 227.
Right and left end is formed with folded part 254 towards 227 bendings of second sidewall to these support members 253 at it.When the gap being limited element 250 and be contained in the compartment 222, folded part 254 extends towards second sidewall 227, and as shown in Figure 34 and 35 the opposite end 227a and the 227b of second sidewall 227 is remained between them.
Similar with above-mentioned gap qualification element 223, above-mentioned gap limits element 250 as following mode is worked.Here hypothesis, recorder/player 1 picks up pedestal 114 slip fast on leading axle 105 and 106 because error is dropped, and departs from suitable skew direction and the arrow K in Figure 35 or the direction of L slightly and apply fall impacting.In this case, the right-hand member 227a of second sidewall 227 of joint element 220 and left end 227b support supported 253.In addition, even pick up that pedestal 114 slides fast and along pick up that pedestal slides as the direction of the arrow M among Figure 35 or the direction imposed load opposite with arrow M, the folded part 254 that the edge 227a of second sidewall 227 and 227b also will be formed on the free end of support member 253 supports.Therefore, supporting the hinge 233a of the edge 227a of second sidewall 227 and 227b and the load on the 233b is alleviated and is prevented joint element 220 fractures.
What note is that similar with above-mentioned gap qualification element 152, above-mentioned gap limits element 250 as following mode is worked.Promptly, when the gap being limited element 250 and is contained in the compartment 222, between second sidewall 227 of second supporting walls 252 and joint element 220, has gap less than the depth of engagement between the screw thread 144 of copulational protuberance 221 and guide spiro rod 140 (as shown in Figure 28, the degree of depth for example is 0.1 millimeter).Therefore, limit in the element 250 in the gap, second sidewall 227 of joint element 220 is received and second sidewall 227 of joint element 220 can not be pressed to guide spiro rod 140.In addition, because as mentioned above, it is rigidity that the gap limits element 250, though in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114 because the dimensional tolerence of joint element 220 makes the mismatch error that may exist between copulational protuberance 221 and the screw thread 144 can be limited in the gap (0.1 millimeter) between second supporting walls 252 of second sidewall 227 and gap qualification element 250.Like this, joint element 220 prevents that the mismatch error of copulational protuberance 221 is greater than the degree of depth (0.3 millimeter) of screw thread 144 and prevent guide spiro rod 140 and copulational protuberance 221 is thrown off mutually in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114.
What note is, can be if which is provided with second sidewall of copulational protuberance 221 towards moving with the direction of leaving guide spiro rod 140, and the hinge 233 that is arranged on the joint element 220 can be in any position except that the cardinal extremity of second sidewall 227 on the compartment 222.In addition, prevent that the gap from limiting that maintenance projection 231 (232) that element 223 (250) and compartment 222 throw off can be arranged on that the gap limits that element 223 (250) is gone up and slit can be formed in the inside surface of first and second sidewalls 226 and 227 and limits element to block the gap.

Utilize screw 135 cap member 90 to be fixed on the upside on chassis 101, pick up chassis 18 on the pedestal 114 and object lens 108 by opening 166 guiding above.In addition, when the motor shell 145 that is used for feeding motor 141 during against the rear side of bearing part 167, cap member 90 is enclosed in the opening 142 in the upside of motor shell 145, thereby sealing is contained in the magnetic field of the coil 146 in the motor shell 145.
When chassis 101 was accommodated in the compartment 21 that is used for disc holder 5, cap member 90 was directly faced CD 4 by the opening 16 in the disc holder 5 as shown in Figure 36.That is, cap member 90 forms the part of recess 15.Owing to utilize screw that cap member 90 is fixed on the chassis 101, so it closely is connected with chassis 101.Like this, stop it to rise, and prevent the signal recording surface of the end scraping CD 4 of the first type surface of cap member 90 and opening 166 from recess 15.
Form above-mentioned cap member 90 by the punching press aluminium sheet.Be provided with and pick up the flexibility printed circuit board 119 that pedestal 114 links to each other at the downside of cap member 90.Therefore, consider to prevent to produce any burr that may damage flexibility printed circuit board 119, by along preparing cap member 90 towards the direction punching press aluminium sheet of upside from downside.Then, make cap member 90 remove burr along the edge of opening 166 with along its periphery.
Also form base plate 91 by the punching press aluminium sheet.Be formed with screw hole in the base plate 91, and the downside on the chassis 101 from the compartment 21 that is contained in disc holder 5 utilizes screw that base plate 91 is fixed on the compartment 21.Like this, base plate 91 itself links to each other with chassis 101 and chassis 101 is fastened between base plate 91 and the cap member 90.
Be used for holding the disc holder 5 that the circular open 166 by cap member 90 is directed to and faces, the recess 15 that picks up pedestal 114 and dish platform 18 is configured as circular.As shown in Figure 36, recess 15 is that first to fourth wall 170 to 173 by circle limits.
The side that first wall 170 is formed on the front end 5a of disc holder 5 is formed on opening 16 in the recess 15 with extend through.First wall 170 has the constant clearance C that is limited between the cap member 90 that exposes in the face of the lower limb of the wall body 170a of recess 15 with by the opening in the recess 15 16.In this clearance C, be provided with the projection 175 of the lower limb of slave unit main body 7 towards recess 15 extensions.
Projection 175 is set with the cap member 90 that prevents to expose signal recording surface deflection towards CD 4 by opening 16.Particularly, disc holder 5 is to be made by the rigidity PPE (polyphenylene oxide, polyphenylene ether) that comprises 20% glass, the chassis 101 that is contained in the optical pickup units 6 in the disc holder 5 is made by iron (Fe), and is fixed on the upside on chassis 101 and is made by aluminium (Al) by the cap member 90 that the opening in the disc holder 5 16 exposes.That is, disc holder 5, chassis 101 and cap member 90 are made from a variety of materials respectively, therefore thermal linear expansion coefficient difference each other.The linear expansion coefficient of PPE is about 2.8 * 10 -5/ mm ℃, and the linear expansion coefficient of aluminium is about 2.4 * 10 -5/ mm ℃, the linear expansion coefficient of iron is about 1.2 * 10 -5/ mm ℃.

Be essentially circular second to wall 171 to 173 from recess 15 outstanding formation.
To be described being used to make the disc holder 5 of holding optical pickup units 6 and the printed-wiring board (PWB) 17 interconnective FPC23 that are arranged on the Lower Half 9 below.As shown in Figure 37, FPC23 is essentially U-shaped, and comprises linear, adjacent and first and second arms 180 that are parallel to each other and 181 and be used to make first and second arms 180 and 181 interconnective coupling parts 182.
First arm 180 is formed with the coupling part 183 of the connector (not shown) that is used to connect on the bottom that is arranged on printed-wiring board (PWB) 17 at its free end, and has coating 184 to improve the rigidity of arm 180 on the 180a of its end.As shown in Figure 38 A, first arm 180 has towards the rear wall 9a of Lower Half 9 and the end 180a that strengthened by coating 184, and links to each other with connector on the bottom that is arranged on printed-wiring board (PWB) 17.Because first arm 180 has the end 180a that is improved rigidity by appended coating 184, coupling part 183 connectors easy and on the bottom of printed-wiring board (PWB) 17 link to each other.In addition, first arm 180 is fixed on the downside of Lower Half 9.
Second arm 181 that utilizes coupling part 182 to link to each other with first arm 180 is formed with the coupling part 186 that the connector 162 on the optical pickup units 6 that is used for and is contained in disc holder 5 links to each other at its place, end.As shown in Figure 38 A, second arm 181 is rolled over behind the open end of Lower Half 9 at end 181a place and is extended towards disc holder 5, so coupling part 186 links to each other with the connector 162 of optical pickup units 6.In addition, second arm 181 is located to roll over behind the open end of Lower Half 9 in a position (representing with Reference numeral 187).
In addition, second arm 181 182 positions of setting is backward having the coating 188 that can improve second arm, 181 rigidity from end 181a towards the coupling part.That is, second arm 181 from the coupling part 186 towards the coupling part rigidity of 182 positions of setting backward greater than the part that comprises coupling part 186.Coating 188 is attached to the middle place of second arm 181, thereby compares with other parts of 182 with comprising coupling part 186, improves the rigidity of the part of second arm 181 of having coating 188 on it.
Above-mentioned second arm 181 is not fixed on the bottom of Lower Half 9, but shown in Figure 38 A and Figure 38 B, when disc holder 5 moved, second arm 181 was in coupling part 182 moves to equipment body 7 and outside the equipment body 7.In addition, when shown in Figure 39 A and Figure 39 B, when disc holder 5 moved, the sweep 187 of second arm 181 moved along the moving direction of disc holder 5.
Here it should be noted, on the bottom that is not fixed on Lower Half 9 in second arm 181 and the length of the part of pliability distortion be that half and its of the displacement of disc holder 5 is in the midpoint of the moving range of disc holder 5 basically with respect to the border of coupling part 182 basically.In other words, second arm 181 has required minimum length or bigger length for disc holder 5 mobile.When disc holder 5 moved, second arm 181 moved to outside the Lower Half 9 from its border with respect to the coupling part on the bottom that is fixed on Lower Half 9 182, and therefore crooked following in the slave unit main body 7 pulled out at its cardinal extremity 181b place.In addition, when second arm 181 moves in the Lower Half 9, second arm 181 is accommodated in the equipment body 7 by the end 181a bending that is formed with coupling part 186 thereon.
Particularly, in the time of outside disc holder 5 is ejected into equipment body 7, as shown in Figure 39 A, second arm 181 makes its end 181a be ejected into outside the equipment body 7 and sweep 187 is formed near the coupling part 182.Then, when disc holder 5 moves in the equipment body 7 and second arm 181 when also moving in the equipment body 7, as shown in Figure 39 B, sweep 187 is shifted to end 181a.Then, when disc holder 5 is accommodated in the equipment body 7 fully, as shown in Figure 39 C, second arm 181 will make sweep 187 be formed near the coupling part 186.
As mentioned above, in second arm 181, it moves after slightly towards coupling part 182 and to have the part of coating 188 it on low near the ratio of rigidity of the part of coupling part 186 for it.Like this, even as shown in Figure 28 B and Figure 39 C, near the sweep 187 of second arm 181 is formed on coupling part 186 and disc holder 5 when being accommodated in the equipment body 7, can make the load that is applied on second arm 181 because bending is lowered.Like this, second arm 181 can prevent to be formed on the circuitous pattern on the FPC23 owing to the crack occurs and destroyed among the 181a of end.
In addition, because second arm 181 because of sweep 187 is formed near the load that reduce to apply the coupling part 186 thereon, therefore need not to increase distance between coupling part 186 and the sweep 187 in order to reduce to be applied to load on second arm 181 because of sweep when being contained in disc holder 5 in the equipment body 7.Like this, second arm 181 needn't have long length, and this can reduce manufacturing cost.
In addition, the thickness of the equipment body 7 of recorder/player 1 must be restricted, and this is because the main process equipment of many application is designed to be thinner.When the height in the space that FPC23 is set must be limited, sweep 187 should have bigger curvature, and the load on sweep 187 will be bigger like this.But when disc holder 5 was accommodated in the equipment body 7, because second arm 181 can reduce to be applied to the load on the sweep 187, so the present invention can satisfy the thin designing requirement of equipment body 7.
What note is that FPC23 has the coating 188 that is attached to its second arm, 181 pars intermedia offices, so when disc holder 5 is accommodated in the equipment body 7, FPC23 will can not be stuck between the rear end 5d of equipment body 7 and disc holder 5.Particularly, as shown in Figure 39 A, when disc holder 5 is in equipment body 7 outsides, between disc holder 6 and equipment body 7, has gap 190.Therefore, when being contained in disc holder 5 in the equipment body 7, when the second flexible arm 181 therebetween part locate downwards to the gap during 190 belows, it is located will be stuck in it between the rear end of disc holder 5 5d and equipment body 7 in the middle of.
Here it should be noted that in FPC23, the coating 188 that is arranged on the pars intermedia office of second arm 181 makes the rigidity in the pars intermedia office of second arm 181 roughly be higher than the rigidity of rear end part 181b.Therefore, when being accommodated in the equipment body 7 once more after outside disc holder 5 one is ejected out to equipment body 7, the center section that can prevent second arm 181 that rigidity is higher deflects into 190 belows, gap, and rigidity is lower and rear end part 181b bending flexible bigger second arm 181 moves in the equipment body 7 to guarantee disc holder 5.

User control unit 213 produces each command signal that is used for recorder/player 1 operation, and the signal that is produced is offered control circuit 215.Particularly, user control unit 213 is provided with ejector button 213a; Also be provided with to be used to start record data are write the record button 213b that is arranged on the CD 4 that coils on the platform 102; Be used for starting reading and recording at the broadcast button 213c of the data of CD 4 with stop to write down and reproducing the stop button 213d of operation.For example, when the keyboard of user's operating host equipment 2, mouse etc., ejector button 213a, record button 213b, broadcast button 213c and stop button 213d provide the record enabling signal, reproduce enabling signal, stop signal etc. to control circuit 215 from main process equipment 2 by interface.
Above-mentioned storer 214 for example is that EP-ROM (EPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory)) etc. is used for store various kinds of data and program in control circuit 215.Particularly, being stored in data in the storer 214 comprises and is used for feeding motor 141 (step motor) so that the control data that optical take-up apparatus 103 moves radially with respect to the CD 4 that is arranged on the dish platform 102.
What note is, the program zone in the zone that CD 4 has the ingress area that is formed in its inner circumference area, be formed on the ingress area outside and be formed on the export area of program region exterior, that is, and at its outermost circumferential area.In the sub-code data in ingress area, have TOC (contents table) data of storage, such as about the address date that is stored in the data in the program zone with about being stored in the address date of the data in the export area.In addition, feeding motor 141 is supplied to pulse voltage and drives optical take-up apparatus 103 with step-by-step movement.Therefore, storer 214 is stored in starting point (HOME) from ingress area in the scope of the terminal point (OUT) of export area, the number of steps (A) of the write and read that mobile optical take-up apparatus 103 is required, as shown in Figure 41, optical take-up apparatus 103 in this scope from CD 4 reading of data.It should be understood that working as optical take-up apparatus 103 reaches final position (OUT), its is mechanically limited the excircle that moves and can not further move to CD 4.
In addition, the mobile range of optical take-up apparatus 103 is movable to than the more inner position of the ingress area in the CD 4 so that optical take-up apparatus 103 can read the TOC data in the ingress area.Therefore, storer 214 is also stored the required number of steps (B) of starting point (HOME) that is moved to ingress area by optical take-up apparatus 103 from the innermost position (IN) of optical take-up apparatus 103.When optical take-up apparatus 103 reaches its IN position, its is moved and can not further move inward by restriction mechanically.
The mobile range of optical take-up apparatus 103 extends to the terminal point (OUT) of export area from innermost position (IN), and in this scope, optical take-up apparatus 103 can be from CD 4 reading of data, thereby optical take-up apparatus 103 must mechanically be accurately positioned.Therefore, storer 214 has been stored the number of steps (C) of the maximum that is used for step motor or feeding motor 141.Maximum number of steps (C) comprises and being applied to than the more inner zone of innermost circumferential area (IN) so that optical take-up apparatus 103 reaches innermost circumferential area (IN) and is applied to than more outer zone, land (OUT) so that optical take-up apparatus 103 reaches the extra number of steps (D) of land (OUT).In the zone of the extra number of steps (D) that applies some, mechanically limit optical take-up apparatus 103 and move, that is, can not move.Under this irremovable situation, step motor 141 is provided additional pulse voltage so that guide spiro rod rotates.The idle running of guide spiro rod will produce noise.
As shown in Figure 40, control circuit 215 comprises that microcomputer, CPU (central processing unit) etc. are to operate in response to the command signal control system that is provided by user control unit 213.As shown in Figure 41,215 pairs of starting points with ingress area of control circuit (HOME) are taken as " 0 " and carry out position counting for optical take-up apparatus 103.In addition, by At time of eject, control circuit 215 provides the magnetic force of the magnet of electric energy to eliminate magnetic attraction iron core 45 for coil on the core 44 at CD 4, thereby the engaging mechanism 20 of disc holder 5 and the coupling recess 11 of equipment body 7 are thrown off.
Function to recorder/player 1 with said structure is described below.
In recorder/player 1, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 is supported on the opposite two ends of paired leading axle 105 and 106 in advance.Deflection adjusting mechanism 109 is adjusted the gradient of leading axles 105 and 106 so that will vertically be incident on the signal recording surface of CD from the light beam of object lens 108 projections.Utilize cementing agent 133 feasible flexible members 126 sclerosis that are arranged in the housing 125 that is used for deflection adjusting mechanism 109.Like this, even flexible member 126 plastic yield owing to the compression of the screw 127 that is adjusted, deflection adjusting mechanism 109 also can keep the gradient that is fit to of leading axle 105 and 106.
In recorder/player 1, it is outer so that CD 4 is arranged on the disc holder 5 that disc holder 5 is ejected out to equipment body 7.At this moment, as shown in Figure 19, pivotal part 42 is along the direction pressurized of arrow E, therefore makes equipment body 7 contact with stop wall 81 on being arranged on disc holder 5.In addition, junction surface 41 pivots its bearing part 51 along the direction opposite with arrow D under the effect of the range of pivot restriction projection 55 of pivotal part 42, thereby makes the moving track withdrawal of its bonding part 48 from copulational protuberance 11.Therefore, the Lower Half 9 that is provided with the equipment body 7 of copulational protuberance 11 on it is vertically thrown off mutually with disc holder 5, and be subjected to being arranged on the rear wall 9a of the ejection element 30 compressing Lower Halves 9 of disc spring 28 compressings on the disc holder 5, thereby disc holder 5 is ejected into outside the equipment body 7.
When CD 4 is set at suitable position in the recess 15 of disc holder 5 and disc holder 5 when being directed in the equipment body 7 by the user, the direction that is arranged on the arrow H of copulational protuberance 11 in Figure 19 on the Lower Half 9a vertically moves forward the arm 70 until its contact pressuring piece 46, and the direction of arm 70 thereby the arrow G in Figure 20 pivots.When arm 70 pivots, the contact portion 57 of the compressing part 72 compressing pivotal parts 42 of pressuring piece 46 so that pivotal part pivot along the direction opposite with arrow E among Figure 20.The iron core 45 that links to each other with the coupling part 58 of pivotal part 42 inserts it into axle 63 and is inserted on the core in the coil 44 dearly and is set at the magnet magnetic attraction in the coil 44 on the core.
Since be formed with projection 60 on the contact portion 57 that the compressing part 72 of pressuring piece 46 contacts, therefore pressuring piece 46 can be oppressed projection 60 pivotal part 42 is pivoted along the direction opposite with arrow E, thereby makes iron core 45 be built in that the magnet in the coil 44 attracts on the core.In addition.Because but slit 61 is formed between contact portion 57 and the coupling part 58 and contact portion 57 resilient movement, even therefore when 42 oppressed 46 of pivotal parts are excessively oppressed, pivotal part 42 can make contact portion 57 deflections, thereby can absorption pressure.
Like this, acting force that iron core 45 and pivotal part 42 overcome torsion-coil spring 59 is pivoted along the direction opposite with arrow E among Figure 20.When the range of pivot of pivotal part 42 restriction projection 55 when the direction opposite with arrow E pivots, make junction surface 41 direction along arrow D in the scope that increases pivot, thereby as shown in Figure 20, bonding part 48 is on the moving track of copulational protuberance 11.
When disc holder 5 is inserted in the equipment body 7 more deeply, the inclined-plane 49a that the direction of the arrow H of copulational protuberance 11 in Figure 20 moves on the end that makes the main body 49 that is formed on junction surface 41 simultaneously pivots along the direction opposite with arrow D, and copulational protuberance 11 is engaged with on the bonding part 48.Like this, the Lower Half 9 of disc holder 5 and equipment body 7 is bonded with each other.
As shown in Figure 18, ejection element 30 moves from the rear wall 9a back pressure of Lower Half 9 and towards front end 5a and utilizes flange 30a that disc spring 28 is compressed towards front end 5a simultaneously.Kept by the compartment 29a of spring compartment 29 owing to be in the end of front end 5a one side, so disc spring 28 is oppressed and then is compressed to be kept for flange 30a is pressed to the acting force of rear end 5d by flange 30a.That is, disc holder 5 on the junction surface 41 be arranged on Lower Half 9 vertically on copulational protuberance 11 engage simultaneously Lower Half 9 pressed to rear end 5d, and it is in the equipment body 7.
In addition, when disc holder 5 was accommodated in the equipment body 7, the FPC23 that connects the printed-wiring board (PWB) 17 on the optical pickup units 6 be contained in the disc holder 5 and the Lower Half 9 that is arranged on equipment body 7 moved in the equipment body 7 while at the end of second arm 181 181a place deflection and the sweep 187 that is formed on rearward end 181b place and moves towards end 181a.Since FPC23 in the basic pars intermedia office of second arm 181 with coating 188, therefore second arm 181 therebetween the rigidity of part greater than rigidity at rearward end 181b.Therefore, when the disc holder 5 after outside being ejected into equipment body 7 is accommodated in the equipment body 7 once more, prevent second arm 181 below the bigger pars intermedia office of rigidity deflects into gap 190, and the rigidity of second arm 181 is lower and flexible bigger rearward end 181b is crooked and move in the equipment body 7.
In addition, when disc holder 5 is accommodated in the equipment body 7 fully, as shown in Figure 38 B and Figure 39 C, second arm 181 will with coupling part 186 that connector 162 links to each other near crooked (representing) with Reference numeral 187.But, since in second arm 181 near the ratio of rigidity of the part of coupling part 186 its move after slightly towards coupling part 182 and on it part with coating 188 low, therefore can make the load that is applied on second arm 181 owing to sweep reduces.Like this, second arm 181 can prevent to be formed on the circuitous pattern on the FPC23 owing to the crack occurs and destroyed among the 181a of end.
In addition, because second arm 181 because of sweep 187 is formed near the load that reduce to apply the coupling part 186 thereon, therefore need not to increase distance between coupling part 186 and the sweep 187 in order to reduce to be applied to load on second arm 181 because of sweep when being contained in disc holder 5 in the equipment body 7.Like this, second arm 181 needn't have long length, and this can reduce manufacturing cost significantly.
In addition, in the recorder/player 1 of thin formula design, because the height that the space of FPC23 is set is limited in holding the scope of the maximum possible of disc holder 5, so sweep 187 should have bigger curvature, and load will be bigger on sweep 187 like this.But when disc holder 5 was accommodated in the equipment body 7, because second arm 181 can reduce to be applied to the load on the sweep 187, so the present invention can satisfy the thin designing requirement of equipment body 7.
In addition, in recorder/player 1, optical take-up apparatus 103 is normally at the starting point (HOME) of ingress area.Because recorder/player 1 is comprised in the portable set such as notebook computer etc., when this portable set be carried or under similar situation recorder/player 1 may be applied in vibration.When the main process equipment 2 with built-in recorder/player 1 is carried and CD 4 when being set on the disc holder 5, the vibration that may be applied on the main process equipment 2 will make CD 4 be disturbed.The displacement that CD 4 produces owing to being disturbed is bigger at the excircle place.Therefore, in the recorder/player 1 of design according to the present invention, the very little inner periphery place of displacement that optical take-up apparatus 103 is in produce owing to being disturbed in the CD 4, thus the object lens 108 etc. that prevent CD 4 and optical take-up apparatus 103 are in contact with one another and scraping mutually.
As shown in Figure 42, after step S1 is switched on, drive step motor 141 at recorder/player 1 at step S2 control circuit 215.Particularly, control circuit 215 applies the pulse voltage that is equivalent to maximum number of steps (C) on step motor 141.Then, the guide spiro rod 140 that links to each other with step motor 141 rotates and optical take-up apparatus 103 progressively moves to the endpoint location (OUT) that is in CD 4 excircle places.
In recorder/player 1, if optical take-up apparatus 103 is applied in when vibrating owing to jumping when being carried, optical take-up apparatus 103 may move towards the inner periphery or the excircle of CD 4 from the starting point (HOME) of ingress area.If under such a case, step motor 141 is supplied to the quantity that is equivalent to the quantity of the write and read number of steps (A) among Figure 41, optical take-up apparatus 103 are moved to the required number of steps (B) of the starting point (HOME) of ingress area from the innermost circumferential position (IN) of optical take-up apparatus 103 and pulse voltage at the maximum quantity of the resulting number of steps of quantity addition (C) of the extra number of steps (D) of inner periphery and excircle.That is, because optical take-up apparatus 103 was moved beyond endpoint location (OUT) by mechanical constraint after, step motor 141 was driven until guide spiro rod 140 idle running, so the endpoint location of optical take-up apparatus 103 (OUT) can correctly be retrieved.
What note is that when guide spiro rod 140 idle running, it will produce noise.But, only produce noise in the quantity of the required number of steps (B) of the starting point (HOME) that moves to ingress area corresponding to optical take-up apparatus 103 from the innermost circumferential position (IN) of optical take-up apparatus 103 with in the time in the quantity summation of the extra number of steps (D) of inner periphery and excircle.Therefore, can restrain noise makes it less than for example being equivalent to the noise that produced during towards the negative pulse voltage of the number of steps (C) of the maximum quantity of the direction of innermost circumferential position (IN) along from the starting point (HOME) of ingress area when step motor 141 is supplied to.
When correctly discerning the endpoint location (OUT) of optical take-up apparatus 103 in step S2, control circuit 215 provides the negative pulse voltage of the number of steps (C) that is equivalent to maximum quantity for step motor 141 in step S3.Like this, optical take-up apparatus 103 was moved to innermost circumferential position (IN) by mechanical constraint after, step motor 141 was driven until guide spiro rod 140 idle running, so the innermost circumferential position (IN) of optical take-up apparatus 103 can correctly be retrieved.
What note is that when guide spiro rod 140 idle running, it will produce noise.But only the time that produces noise and noise is produced in corresponding to the time in the quantity of the extra number of steps (D) at inner periphery place reaches minimum.
When the innermost circumferential position (IN) of identification optical take-up apparatus 103 in step S3, control circuit 215 is equivalent to optical take-up apparatus 103 moves to the quantity of the required number of steps (B) of the starting point (HOME) of ingress area from the innermost position (IN) of optical take-up apparatus 103 negative pulse voltage for step motor 141 provides in step S4.Like this, control circuit 215 can make optical take-up apparatus 103 move to the starting point (HOME) of ingress area.In addition, control circuit 215 can be made as the starting point (HOME) of ingress area zero, beginning pulse count and begin to manage the position of optical take-up apparatus 103.
The operation that record data will be write on the CD 4 of recorder/player 1 is described below.
When the user pressed record button 213a on the user control unit 213, record data were supplied at input terminal 206 places of recorder/player 1.Record data experience error correction and the coding corresponding to present used CD 4 types in the recorder/player 1 in error correction/coding circuit 207, then experience the modulation corresponding to CD 4 types in modulation circuit 208.Modulating data is recorded in the writing circuit 209, then is fed into optical take-up apparatus 103.Then, light beam that optical take-up apparatus 103 will send from semiconductor laser and that have corresponding to the wavelength of CD 4 types projects on the recording layer of CD 4, detection comes from the reflection ray in the reflection horizon in the CD 4, detected light is carried out light-to-current inversion, and resulting electric signal is offered RF amplifier 203.RF amplifier 203 will produce focus error signal, tracking error signal and RF signal.Servo circuit 204 produces focus servo signal and tracking servo signal based on focus error signal that is provided by RF amplifier 203 and tracking error signal, and servosignal is offered the driving circuit in the object lens driving mechanism that is included in the optical take-up apparatus 103.Like this, the object lens 108 that supported by the object lens driving mechanism move along the focus direction of the optical axial that is parallel to object lens 108 with perpendicular to the tracking direction of the optical axial of object lens 108.In addition, motor control circuit 202 servosignal that rotates, it is synchronous with the reference clock that comes from crystal oscillator utilize to rotate the clock that servosignal makes tilting member by groove and addressing pit produce, and based on rotating servosignal drive shaft motor 201 so that CD 4 rotates with CLV.In addition, subcode extraction circuit 205 extracts wobble groove and extracts address date on ingress area from pit pattern from the RF signal, and the data that extract are offered control circuit 215.In order under the control of control circuit 215, to write on the data of handling in the writing circuit 209, optical take-up apparatus 103 obtains predetermined address based on the address date that extracts, drive semiconductor laser with recording level, and light beam is projected on the recording layer of CD 4 so that data are write on the CD 4.When optical take-up apparatus 103 write record data, utilize step motor to make it progressively to move record data are write on the inner periphery and the zone between the excircle of CD 4.
To the operation of the data of reading and recording on CD 4 of recorder/player 1 be described below.
When the user presses broadcast button 213c on the user control unit 213, light beam that optical take-up apparatus 103 will send from semiconductor laser and that have corresponding to the wavelength of CD 4 types projects on the recording layer of CD 4, detection comes from the reflection ray in the reflection horizon in the CD 4, the light-to-current inversion that detected light is carried out, and resulting electric signal offered RF amplifier 203.RF amplifier 203 will produce focus error signal, tracking error signal and RF signal.Servo circuit 204 produces focus servo signal and tracking servo signal based on focus error signal that is provided by RF amplifier 203 and tracking error signal, and servosignal is offered the driving circuit in the object lens driving mechanism that is included in the optical take-up apparatus 103.In addition, motor control circuit 202 servosignal that rotates, the clock that utilizes the rotation servosignal to make synchronizing signal produce is synchronous with the reference clock that comes from crystal oscillator, and based on rotating servosignal drive shaft motor 201 so that CD 4 rotates with CLV.In addition, subcode extraction circuit 205 extracts sub-code data from the RF signal, and the sub-code data that extracts is offered control circuit 215.For reading of data, optical take-up apparatus 103 obtains predetermined address based on the address date in the sub-code data that is included in extraction, drive semiconductor laser beam with reproduction level, light beam is projected on the recording layer of CD 4 with the record data of reading and recording in CD 4.When optical take-up apparatus 103 when optical disk reading is fetched data, utilize step motor to make it progressively to move with in reading of data on the inner periphery of CD 4 and the zone between the excircle.
At demodulator circuit 210 the RF signal that is produced by RF amplifier 203 is carried out demodulation corresponding to being used for modulating method for recording data, experience error correction and decoding then are transported to lead-out terminal 212 in error correction/decoding circuit 211.Then, export with digital form in lead-out terminal 212 place's data, perhaps for example using D-A (digital-to-analog) converter is simulation from digital conversion, to offer loudspeaker, monitor etc.
When as mentioned above data being write or read CD 4 or writing or during read data from CD 4, be formed on the compartment 153 that picks up the joint element 120 that pedestal 114 links to each other which is provided with object lens 108 in copulational protuberance 151 be bonded in the screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140 and make screw thread 144 reach certain depth, for example the degree of depth is 0.3 millimeter, and the gap of being made by rigid metal plate in compartment 153 limits between the supporting walls 158 and 159 that element 152 is accommodated in compartment 153 and the interval between them is bonded on depth of engagement in the screw thread 144 on the guide spiro rod 140 less than copulational protuberance 151, and for example the gap is 0.1 millimeter.
Therefore, press under the situation of guide spiro rod 140, make the gap limit element 152 and be received at the copulational protuberance 151 that does not have to be formed on the compartment 153.That is, can prevent that guide spiro rod 140 is applied in excessive acting force, thereby can make the rotation of guide spiro rod 140 blunt.Thereby guarantee that guide spiro rod 140 smoothly rotates.In addition, in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114, limit to such an extent that limit gap (0.1 millimeter) between the supporting walls 158 of element 152 less than the sidewall 153a that is limited to compartment 153 and gap owing to the dimensional tolerence of joint element 120 makes the mismatch error that may exist between copulational protuberance 151 and the screw thread 144 to be limited element 52 by the gap.Like this, the mismatch error of joint element 120 restriction copulational protuberances 151 is less than the degree of depth (0.3 millimeter) of screw thread 144 and prevent guide spiro rod 140 and copulational protuberance 151 is thrown off mutually in the moving process that picks up pedestal 114.
In addition, wherein accommodating the gap, to limit the work of joint element 120 of element 220 (250) as follows.If recorder/player 1 drops owing to error and picks up pedestal 114 and slide fast on leading axle 105 and 106, be formed with on it with guide spiro rod 140 on the edge 227a of second sidewall 227 of copulational protuberance 221 of screw thread 144 engagements and 227b limited the support member 240 (253) of element 220 (250) by the gap or locate to support at folded part (254).Therefore, can alleviate load on the hinge 233 that concentrates on support second sidewall 227, thereby prevent hinge 233 fractures.
In addition, be supplied to square wave and make the feeding motor 141 that picks up pedestal 114 feedings be designed to be thinner, at least owing to motor shell 145 opens wide at its top and place, bottom to drive guide spiro rod 140 rotations.In addition, motor shell 145 is supported between the top and cap member on the bottom 90 and base plate 91 that is arranged at optical pickup units 6 respectively.
As mentioned above, the magnetic field that is accommodated in the coil 146 in the motor shell 145 can be closed, thereby can prevent that the fringe magnetic field that comes from feeding motor 1 from producing harmful effect to the information signal that is read or write by CD 4.In addition, open wide at its top and place, bottom, therefore in motor shell 145, discharge heat easily owing to be used for the motor shell 145 of feeding motor 141.
In addition, in recorder/player 1, disc holder 5, chassis 101 and cap member 90 are to be made by the different material of thermal linear expansion coefficient each other, when they had higher temperature, these parts made that owing to thermal linear expansion coefficient each other is different the degree of their distortions is different each other.Particularly, aluminum cap member 90 has the wall 166a towards the rectangular aperture 166 of CD 4 deflections, and the wall 166a of deflection may with the signal recording surface sliding contact that receives the CD 4 in the recess 15.
First wall 170 has the projection 175 on the lower limb that is formed on wall body 170a, and cap member 90 is against projection 175 like this, thereby can prevent cap member 90 towards CD 4 deflections, thereby prevents cap member 90 and CD 4 sliding contacts.
With reference to Figure 43 the operation of recorder/player 1 when depressing the ejector button 213a that is used to eject CD 4 is described below.
In step S11, control circuit 215 judges whether ejector button 213a is pressed by the user.When judged result when being sure, control circuit 215 carries out step S12.When control circuit 215 has detected, when the user has depressed ejector button 213a, it will provide negative pulse voltage so that optical take-up apparatus 103 moves to the starting point (HOME) of ingress area for step motor 141.
What note is, in order to make optical take-up apparatus 103 move to the starting point (HOME) of ingress area, the negative pulse voltage that is equivalent to maximum quantity number of steps (C) can be applied on the step motor 141 so that optical take-up apparatus 103 moves to its innermost position (IN), then is equivalent to optical take-up apparatus 103 moves to the quantity of the required number of steps (B) of the starting point (HOME) of ingress area from the innermost position (IN) of optical take-up apparatus 103 positive pulse voltage and can be applied on the step motor 141 so that optical take-up apparatus 103 moves to the starting point (HOME) of ingress area.
When optical take-up apparatus 103 moves to the starting point (HOME) of ingress area, control circuit 215 carries out step S13, will for coil on the core 44 provide the magnet of electric current to eliminate magnetic attraction iron core 45 magnetic force so that the copulational protuberance 11 of disc holder 5 and equipment body 7 throw off mutually.Like this, the disc holder 5 that is placed with CD 4 on it is ejected out to outside the equipment body 7 under the effect of the acting force of disc spring 28.
Particularly, in order to eject in the disc holder 5 slave unit main bodys 7, the control circuit 215 that the user control unit 213 on being arranged on disc holder 5 receives command signal provides electric current to be built in the magnetic force of the magnet the coil 44 on the core with elimination.Therefore, the direction of pivotal part 42 arrow E in Figure 19 under the effect of the acting force of torsion-coil spring 59 pivots.Range of pivot restriction projection 55 pivots along the direction of arrow E, thereby junction surface 41 is pivoted along the direction opposite with arrow D, is withdrawn from the moving track of copulational protuberance in bonding part 48.Like this, copulational protuberance 11 is thrown off with bonding part 48, and disc holder 5 is thrown off with the Lower Half 9 of equipment body 7 like this.
At this moment, eject the reacting force that element 30 is applied in the acting force that equals disc spring 28 that comes from rear wall 9a and disc spring 28 is pushed back front end 5a to utilize flange 30a.Because its end in front end 5a one side blocked by the wall 29a of spring compartment 29, so disc spring 28 will be expanded simultaneously compartment 29a will be extruded towards front end 5a.Like this, disc holder 5 is forced out and ejects towards the open end of equipment body 7 in the side of front end 5a towards the open end of equipment body 7.
What note is, because when pivotal part 42 makes the compressing part 72 of pressuring piece 46 conflict with the contact portion 57 of pivotal part 42 and make when oppressing part 72 along the direction pivot opposite with arrow G along the pivot of arrow E direction, therefore arm 70 is kept by backstop 80, can avoid arm 70 excessive pivotals and is not on the moving track of copulational protuberance 11.In addition, be wrapped in the holding element 75 that torsion-coil spring 73 on the pressuring piece 46 can be formed on the rear side 5c of disc holder 5 and be fixed on suitable position, therefore provide best acting force for pressuring piece 46.Therefore, even be engaged projection 11 compressing and pivotal part 42 along the direction of arrow G or when the direction opposite with arrow G pivots when pressuring piece 46, pressuring piece 46 turns back to the initial position that the moving track of arm 70 and copulational protuberance 11 intersects.
What note here is, when CD 4 by At time of eject, vibration can make it be disturbed.The displacement that CD 4 produces owing to being disturbed is bigger at the excircle place.Therefore, in the recorder/player 1 of design according to the present invention, the very little inner periphery place of displacement that optical take-up apparatus 103 is in produce owing to being disturbed in the CD 4, thus object lens 108 that prevent CD 4 and optical take-up apparatus 103 etc. are in contact with one another with mutual scraping.
