Publication number: 20080023370Abstract: A cassette storage device is disclosed, which is capable of storing a cassette having a first connector. The cassette storage device comprises: a housing having an opening and a second connector; a tray coupled to the housing and being moveable through the opening; a first shaft positioned between the housing and the tray; a second shaft positioned between the housing and the tray; a driving end coupled to the first shaft and the second shaft; and a releasing switch positioned on the housing and coupled to the first shaft. Therefore, when the first connector of the cassette is going to be ejected from the second connector of the housing, the releasing switch is only required to be pushed slightly, then the first shaft, along with the driving end will subsequently make the second shaft rotate and thus push the cassette out from the cassette storage device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2007Publication date: January 31, 2008Applicant: ASUSTEK COMPUTER INC.Inventors: Chien-Chen Lin, Kuan-Yen Lee, Chih-Wei Chou
