PURPOSE:To easily assemble the titled device by forming an angle adjusting mechanism for adjusting an inclination angle between yorks constituting a magnetic circuit and the optical axis of an objective lens unitedly with the base of an objective lens driver by means of a common member. CONSTITUTION:Two pins 11a, 11b are planted on the base 11 formed by a magnetic material and outside yorks 22a, 22b and inside yorks 21a, 21b are formed on the base 11. The angle adjusting mechanism 25 is formed on the bottom of the base 11 and a supporting mechanism 40 for a movable part 30 is inserted and fixed into/on the pins 11a, 11b. The outside yorks 22a, 22b, the inside yorks 21a, 21b and the mechanism 25 are formed with the same material by press molding or the like. In the objective lens driver, the movement of the objective lens in the intra-face direction of an information recording medium is executed by using a hinge as a drive supporting point and support in the vertical direction and restoration force can be obtained by a plate spring.
