Abstract
A turntable device principally includes a horizontal rotation base and an up-and-down swinging mechanism, which are driven by VCMs. An optical apparatus is placed on supports, which are arranged on the horizontal rotation base, with a horizontal rotation shaft therebetween. The optical apparatus is directed up-and-down and right-and-left by movable pieces connected to movable coils of the VCMs, so as to constitute the turntable device. The optical apparatus is placed on the turntable.
