ABSTRACT:
A sled apparatus for an optical head frame of an optical disk drive comprises a lead screw, an elastic element and two opposing racks located on an upper side and a lower side of the lead screw. The racks have respectively one end fixedly fastened to the optical head frame and another end engaged with each other through the elastic element for the two racks to clamp the lead gear and engage with screw threads of the lead gear such that two ends of the lead screw subject to reduced pre-load force and friction force incurred to the lead screw during rotation also decreases. As a result, rotation can be transmitted to the lead screw smoothly and reliably to move the optical head frame rapidly and smoothly.
