BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an optical disk drive device, and more particularly, to a lens holder injection structure in which both ends of a lens holder of an optical pickup actuator are formed with protrusions and grooves for connecting the coil to the power supply and for supporting the lens holder support means.

The present invention also changes the structure of the support for supporting the objective lens so that the actuator and the optical path overlap, and the pickup base including the objective lens and the reflecting mirror to move down the disk, an optical system other than the above configuration (PD, LD, PBS, CL, etc.) formed a separate binary structure to be fixed to the mechanism acting as a case.

Recently, with the development of digital media technology, various high quality contents such as music, movies, and videos are pouring out, and the market demand is increasing day by day.

In addition, as digital devices such as notebooks, camcorders, and digital cameras become lighter and smaller, the demand for miniaturization of information storage media is increasing.

In order to realize miniaturization in an optical disc drive, a space limitation in driving mechanism configuration is encountered.

The most constrained part in implementing an ultra-compact optical disc is to move the objective lens to keep the relative position between the objective lens and the disc constant, and to record / play back information recorded on the disc by following the disc track. Actuator that acts.

The actuator automatically tracks and compensates for disc warpage and track position error components.

The actuator moves in the form of a movable coil by a permanent magnet field to move the objective lens to a desired position.

At this time, the movable part is designed to have a desired frequency characteristic by fixing it with a support having rigidity and attenuation characteristic. The movable part translates in two directions perpendicular to each other, focusing and tracking directions, and rotates or twists to reduce an error of an optical signal. The driving should be made without unnecessary vibration such as.

In general, an objective lens driving device which drives an optical spot to follow the center of a signal track of an optical disk with respect to the surface vibration and eccentricity of the optical disk according to the rotation of the optical disk with the light beam collected from the objective lens is driven together with the optical pickup. .

Such an objective lens driving apparatus is called an optical pickup actuator and drives the objective lens to perform focusing and tracking operations.

The focusing operation is to drive the objective lens up and down so that the light spot of the light beam from the objective lens falls within the depth of focus in the signal track of the optical disc, and the tracking operation is that the light spot of the light beam from the objective lens detects the signal track of the optical disc. It is to drive left and right to follow the center.

Since the disc-shaped disc track position varies relatively to the optical pickup due to manufacturing error and deformation, vibration due to rotation, and error of the optical pickup itself, the objective lens closest to the disk is compensated for by electric signals. It is moved by an optical pickup actuator, which is a special mechanism that is driven by

A general optical pickup actuator uses a coil and a magnet to move the objective lens by an electric force between the magnet and the current flowing through the coil.

FIG. 1 (a) is a view schematically showing a conventional optical pickup actuator, in which a lens holder 102 is provided with an objective lens 101 mounted at a center thereof and coupled with coils 105 and 106 for focusing and tracking to an outer circumferential surface thereof. ), Magnets 103 and yokes 104 installed on both sides of the lens holder 102 to form a magnetic circuit, and an image of the lens holder 102 to support the lens holder 102. Upper and lower wire suspensions 107 having one end fixed to the lower fixing substrate 108 and a damper provided at one side of the lens holder 102 to fix the other end of the wire suspension 107 to each other.

In addition, a plurality of yokes 104, which are ferromagnetic materials, protrude from the left and right sides of the lens holder 102 to fix the magnets 103, respectively, and the yoke 104 is a pickup base (not shown). And are integrated by means of integration.

A fixed substrate 108 is coupled to the upper and lower side centers of the lens holder 102, and one end of two parallel wire suspensions 107 is soldered to each of the fixed substrates 108, and the wire suspension ( The other end of 107 is fixed to the main substrate through a damper holder 109 provided on one side of the lens holder 102.

Here, a damper (not shown) is coupled to the damper holder 109 so as to have a rigid damping characteristic of the wire suspension 107, and a main substrate (not shown) is coupled to the outside to allow the wire suspension 107 to be coupled to the damper holder 109. Make sure that the other end of is soldered.

The wire suspension 107 floats the lens holder 102 and serves as a relay line for supplying current.

In brief, the operation of the actuator as described above, the tracking coils 106 attached to the lens holder 102 are wound in a proper direction to each other to generate a magnetic flux in a predetermined direction when the current flows, which is fixed Repulsive force and repulsive force are generated by the magnet 103 and the electromagnetic force.

Then, the movement of the lens holder 102 is moved in the tracking direction (before and after) by the repulsive force and the repulsive force, so that the tracking servo for correcting the tracking error is operated.

In addition, the focusing coil 105 is wound in a vertical direction differently from the tracking coil, and the direction of the magnetic flux is generated in the up and down directions when current flows, so that the coil is electromagnetically acted on the magnetic flux of the fixed magnet 103. By generating a force in the vertical direction 105, the lens holder 102 is moved in the focusing direction (up, down) to operate a focusing servo for correcting it.

The coils 105 and 106 are wound around the outer circumferential surface of the lens holder 102 such that the coil moves together with the lens holder 102 in the focusing and tracking directions. In contrast, the outer circumferential surface of the lens holder 102 The magnet is attached to the moving magnet together with the lens holder is called a moving magnet method.

At this time, the moving method by magnet and coil uses Lorentz force of Fleming's left hand law.

In addition, in order to realize miniaturization in an optical disc drive, a space limitation in driving mechanism configuration is encountered.

Therefore, the most restrictive part in implementing an ultra-compact optical disc is to move the objective lens to keep the relative position between the objective lens and the disc constant, and to record / play back the information recorded on the disc by following the disc track.

11A widens the contact portion 135 of the spring to place a rigid difference in the fixed portion of the leaf spring in front of the fixed portion in order to reduce the influence of the lens holder side fixed deviation.

In other words, in order to reduce the fixed deviation of the leaf spring, there is a stiffness difference in front of the bonding fixing section so that the effective area of the spring can be configured in front of the bonding fixing section.

The stiffness difference in the above is originally determined by the spring constant K in the thin width region, which is widened (ie, by increasing the spring constant K), rather than directly fixed around the thin width, and then fixed in the fixed portion. it means.

In addition, in the present invention, since the mass portion occupied by the lens holder (including the damper) support of the leaf spring as compared to the lens holder assembly corresponds to 20-30%, a small optical pickup actuator has a considerable effect, so the leaf spring The self-mode due to flexibility affects the driving characteristics of the lens holder assembly (2-3 kHz).

That is, conventionally, the potion of the leaf spring can be ignored as compared to the lens holder. However, in the present invention, since the lens holder is relatively small, the vibration of the leaf spring cannot be ignored.

Therefore, a floating portion (a portion not affected by the movement of the lens holder assembly) 136 is disposed on one side of the leaf spring so that damping can effectively work in the vibration mode.
