A pickup device driving apparatus includes: a movable part which moves a pickup device in a first direction while a direction of a pickup surface is held; a linear actuator which moves an axis in a second direction different from the first direction; a direction changing part which has a bearing part provided in a third direction perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction, rotates on the bearing part, and changes a bias force applied in the second direction by the axis of the linear actuator to a bias force applied in the first direction, and applies the bias force to the movable part; and a weight part which is provided in the direction changing part to cancel a rotation moment of the bearing part generated in the direction changing part by the inclination of the movable part.

Pickup device driving apparatus and photographing device using the same

A pickup device driving apparatus includes a base of which the position is fixed with respect to a lens part, a movable part, a pickup device which is attached to the movable part in a state that a pickup surface is perpendicular to an optical axial direction, a first support part and a second support part which support the movable part, a first rotating part, a second rotating part, a third rotating part, and a fourth rotating part, and a driving part for driving the pickup device such that the position of the pickup device is changed relative to the lens part in a state that rotating center axes form vertexes of a parallelogram.

Pickup device driving apparatus, photographing device using the same, and monitoring camera apparatus

A magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus is proposed wherein a hook arm is pivoted by a free end of one of two pivot arms when the pivot arms are urged by an inserted cassette and are pivoted by a predetermined angular interval, and the hook arm is disengaged from one of the link arms causing the cassette holders to descend when the hook arm is pivoted by a predetermined angular interval, thereby setting the cassette in the recording/play mode. The descent timing of the cassette is predetermined, and the cassette can be stably set in the correct recording/reproduction position.
