Abstract:
An optical scanning device for scanning an optically scannable information carrier, which scanning device is provided with:a radiation source, an optical lens system having an optical axis for focussing a radiation beam supplied, in operation, by the radiation source into a scanning spot on the information carrier, an actuator for displacing the lens system with respect to a base part of the scanning device in a direction parallel to the optical axis, and an adjusting member for setting an inclination of the lens system with respect to the information carrier, the lens system being elastically suspended from a suspension member which, viewed in a direction transverse to the optical axis, is arranged next to the lens system, while the adjusting member is provided with a first part and a second part, which can be displaced with respect to the first part, wherein the second part of the adjusting member is provided on the suspension member, while the first part of the adjusting member is provided on a supporting member which is arranged next to the lens system, viewed in a direction transverse to the optical axis.
