A pivoting mirror device for pivoting a pivoting mirror about two mutually perpendicular pivoting axes under the influence of electric control signals, in particular for a video player which reads information from a video disk with the aid of a light beam using optical means, the mirror being journalled so as to be pivotable to all sides and the device comprising electro-dynamic drive means which include permanent magnets and control coils for controlling the pivoting movements. The mirror is supported near its center, while permanent magnetic positioning means which co-operate with permanent magnetic means which are connected to the mirror continually subject the bearing to pressure. In order to obtain a high efficiency the permanent magnetic drive means are magnetized in such a way that the magnetic field lines, at least at the location of the control coils, extend substantially parallel to the reflecting surface of the mirror, while moreover at least a part of the turns of the control coils extend parallel to the reflecting surface and transversely to said field lines. |
