Abstract
An optical disk drive includes a damper interposed between a traverse deck having an optical pickup installed therein and a main frame having the traverse deck installed therein, thereby efficiently reducing vibration. The damper is installed in a coupling section between the traverse deck and the main frame to reduce a vibration and includes a through hole into which a boss formed in the main frame is inserted, and a support to protrude from inner circumference of the through hole such that the boss is fitted in the support.
Claims20
An optical disk drive comprising:
- a traverse deck having an optical pickup installed therein;
- a main frame to form a main body, to be installed with the traverse deck installed therein, and to be installed with a boss;
- and
- at least one damper installed in a coupling section between the traverse deck and the main frame to reduce a vibration,
- wherein the damper comprises:
- a through hole which is defined by an inner circumference of the damper and into which the boss formed in the main frame is inserted;
- and
- a support to protrude from the inner circumference toward an inside of the through hole such that the boss is fitted in the support.
An optical disk drive comprising:
- a main frame;
- a traverse deck installed with an optical pickup;
- and
- at least one damper installed in a coupling section between the traverse deck and the main frame to absorb a vibration,
- wherein the damper comprises a portion to correspond to the coupling section and to have an elastic restoring force when the portion of the damper is installed in the coupling section.
An optical disk drive comprising:
- a main frame having a boss;
- a traverse deck installed with an optical pickup;
- and
- at least one damper installed in a coupling section between the traverse deck and the boss of the main frame to absorb a vibration,
- wherein the damper comprises a portion having an elastic restoring force to contact the traverse deck and the boss of the main frame in the coupling section when the portion of the damper is installed in the coupling section, and another portion disposed on one of upper and lower side of the portion to be spaced-apart from the boss.
