Abstract: A bifunctional turntable which includes a rotating shaft, a platter, a light sensor module, an audio control module, and a plinth is revealed. The rotating shaft which is driven by a power source to rotate drives the platter to rotate. Then the light sensor module disposed on the rotating shaft detects rotation speed of the platter for playing a record at normal speed. The audio control module is located in the plinth and disposed on a simulated record for detecting changes in the simulated record which is manually operated. Then the audio control module sends signals to a digital audio control system at a rear end for driving the digital audio control system to output audio signals. Thereby the present turntable plays not only vinyl records but also simulated records.

Abstract: A control system for fully automatic turntables is revealed. The control system includes a receiver module therein for receiving signals from application programs to activate a drive source and a control assembly which control a platter and a tonearm respectively. The control assembly includes a first rod provided with an upper rack and a second rod provided with a lower rack. The first and second rods are inserted and installed on a base. A power source disposed on the base is for driving a first gear set correspondingly and a connecting rod is also moved to drive a second gear set. Thus partial gears of the first and second gear sets are engaged with the upper and lower racks alternately. The first and second rods are further driven to move or stop the tonearm respectively. Therefore, automatic movement of the tonearm is achieved.

Abstract: A detection system of vinyl record players for detecting end of playback is revealed. The system includes a vinyl record player and a vinyl record control module. The vinyl record player consists of a tone arm, a cartridge connected to one end of the tone arm, a stylus connected to the cartridge, and a turntable. The vinyl record control module is arranged at the vinyl record player and is composed of a signal analysis unit, a signal output unit, a signal reading unit, and a vinyl record control unit electrically connected. The vinyl record control unit is electrically connected to a turntable control unit for stopping rotation of the turntable, or electrically connected to a tone arm lifting unit for ascending the tone arm, or electrically connected to both the turntable control unit and the tone arm lifting unit.

Abstract: An electric arm lifting and turntable's auto-stop assembly of a record player is revealed. A record player is disposed with a power-driven turntable, a rotatable and movable arm disposed on one side of the turntable, a lift mechanism used for pushing against and moving the arm upward, and a sensor. The arm is moveable over the turntable. The sensor is arranged at an arm rotating shaft of the arm and used for sending a signal while detecting that the arm is moved to a lift point over the turntable. The lift mechanism is activated to move the arm upward and the turntable is stopped simultaneously for protecting a needle on the arm while the sensor detects that the arm has been moved from the turntable to the lift point.
