OPTICAL UNIT ASSOCIATED WITH AN OPTICAL HEAD FOR READING/WRITING AN OPTICAL DISC

The invention provides an optical head for writing-reading a disk by means of at least a focussed radiation. This apparatus has at least one track, this track having evenly spaced apart grooves. An optical head using a motor having a fixed magnetic circuit with an air-gap in which a mobile assembly moves is provided. A magnetic circuit is additionally used which has a magnetic access and radial tracking circuit having at least one core intersecting all the grooves. The mobile assembly is formed of two actuators. The first of these actuators providing access to and radial tracking of the track. The second provides focussing of the light radiation on this track. There is a flexible fixing device connecting together these two actuators, along with a guide comprising friction sliding elements flexibly mounted on the radial and access actuator and allowing the actuator to slide over the core of the magnetic access and radial tracking circuit.
