Abstract: To provide an electromagnetic relay having a reduced size, high conductivity, a high insulating performance between two fixed contact terminals and between each of the fixed contact terminals and backstop, a small number of factors causing a failure, and high reliability of electric contact. An electromagnetic relay has an electromagnetic block provided with a movable contact spring 14 swung by current flowing in a coil, two fixed contact terminals 22 and 22? each having a fixed contact, a backstop 23 having two movable contact abutment portions, and a base block 2 for retaining the above components. The base block 2 has a base portion 20 having substantially a rectangular shape, fixed contact terminal retaining portions 21 and 21? extending vertically from two opposing sides of the rectangle so as to retain the two fixed contact terminals, and a backstop retaining portion 24 extending vertically from the center portion of one of the remaining two opposing sides of the rectangle.

Abstract: A tray for supporting a recording disk in a disk cassette has a pair of diametrically opposed pivoted levers with operative ends which engage opposite sides of the disk to hold it in the tray. The other end of each lever covers a pin insertion hole in the disk. When respective pins of a playback device are inserted through the insertion holes, the pins push against the levers and cause them to release the disk.

Abstract: An information recording disc player comprises a first cartridge receiving part for receiving a first cartridge which can accommodate a plurality of discs, a second cartridge receiving part for receiving a second cartridge which can accommodate a single disc, and a disc playing unit for selectively playing an arbitrary one of the discs accommodated within the first and second cartridges respectively loaded into the first and second cartridge receiving parts.
