Patent ID: 8660416

Claim:
An optical unit with a shake correcting function comprising: a fixed body; a movable body which holds an optical element; a swing support point which supports the movable body between a rear end portion in an optical axis direction of the movable body and the fixed body so that the movable body is capable of swinging; a spring member which is formed in a plate shape and is provided with a fixed body side connecting part connected with the fixed body, a movable body side connecting part connected with the movable body, and an arm part connected with the fixed body side connecting part and the movable body side connecting part, the spring member urging the movable body toward the swing support point; a shake correction drive mechanism which is structured to swing the movable body with the swing support point as a swing center; a first stopper part which is protruded in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction on one side of a front side and a rear side in the optical axis direction of the movable body with respect to the spring member for determining a moving range of the movable body when the movable body is displaced in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction; and a second stopper part which is structured to face the first stopper part in the optical axis direction through the spring member on the other side of the front side and the rear side in the optical axis direction of the fixed body with respect to the spring member for determining a moving range of the movable body to the other side in the optical axis direction by restricting movement of the first stopper part when the movable body is displaced to the other side in the optical axis direction.
