Abstract

A photodetector fixing mechanism for fixing a photodetector, which detects reflected beams from a recording medium, on a base plate with screws wherein caul portions integrally formed with the base plate sandwich a mounting member mounted with the positioned photodetector with the base plate to prevent the mounting member from being in contact with the screw heads so as not to cause skid of the mounting member by turns of the screws.
