Abstract

An optical head apparatus for an optical disc player which stabilizes the servo action, enables high speed access, extends the drawing range of tracking servo action, and further enhances the servo stability. This is done by making the driving mechanism and movable parts for access common to those for tracking to reduce the weight, and moving the stand carrying the condenser lens and mirror in focusing, tracking and accessing in the direction of the optical axis to eliminate deviation of the optical path, and also fixing the tracking and access coils to the condenser lens.
