Abstract

An optical pick-up objective lens driving apparatus comprises a rectangular moving member mounted for movement relative to an iron-core member in rectilinear focusing and tracking directions, respectively. The moving member carries focusing and tracking coils, and a lens. Magnetic pieces are disposed at respective corners of the moving member in opposing spacial relationship to magnetic plates of the iron core member to create a restoring force which biases the moving member to a pre-set position. The lens is mounted over a center of weight of the moving member.
