US Patent 7778119 Objective lens holding device and optical pickup apparatus

An objective lens holding device includes a first objective lens, a second objective lens, and a lens holder, wherein an axis-to-axis distance between a central axis of the first objective lens and a central axis of the second objective lens is set to a distance, depending on a first length and a second length, which distance prevents a second edge portion from butting against a turntable when the first objective lens focuses light from a first laser on an innermost circumference of the information recording layer of an optical disc.
