Objective lens driving apparatus

摘要

From the start of descending of a disk-shaped recording medium in a direction of approaching an objective lens in the optical axis direction by a loading mechanism until it is set at a specified position with respect to a spindle motor, a DC current is supplied to an optical axis direction driving coil through an evading current feeding circuit in a direction for a movable part to depart from the disk-shaped recording medium, and the movable part is located at the remotest position from the disk-shaped recording medium due to an electromagnetic force generated by the DC current flowing in the optical axis direction driving coil and a permanent magnet, so that the disk-shaped recording medium and the objective lens will not collide against each other even if an objective lens with a short working distance is used.
