More Information
Summary:A focusing mechanism includes: a driving source in which three or more cantilever-like piezoelectric actuators are radially arranged; and an optical lens unit that consists of an outer frame, an optical lens, a lens holder provided around the optical lens and holding the optical lens, and an elastic body connecting the lens holder to the outer frame and elongating and contracting in a radial direction of the optical lens, wherein surfaces of driving distal ends of the cantilever-like piezoelectric actuators, which are perpendicular to a direction of an optical axis of the optical lens, are in contact with the lens holder, and the cantilever-like piezoelectric actuators move the optical lens in the direction of the optical axis of the optical lens by the drive of the cantilever-like piezoelectric actuators to perform focusing.
