Abstract: A storage/retrieval device for optical disks includes a container having an access slot. A disk shelf is rotatably mounted in the container and includes a plurality of storage compartments each for receiving an optical disk. A driving roller and a driven roller are rotatably mounted in the container for moving an optical disk into or out of the container via the access slot. An ejecting member includes a first end pivotably supported in the container and a second end operably coupled with the driving roller. The ejecting member is pivotable between a first position in one of the storage compartments for moving an optical disk in the storage compartment out of the storage compartment and a second position outside the storage compartment. A motor is provided to drive the driving roller for rotating the driving roller and the driven roller in opposite directions and for pivoting the ejecting member.

Abstract: An optical disc access control and storage apparatus containing a rotating plate for storing discs thereon and rotating the same, a first disc-pushing mechanism for moving a disc along its radial direction from the rotating plate to a second disc-pushing mechanism wherein the second disc-pushing mechanism has a positioning slot for positioning the disc, an auxiliary-fixing mechanism for fixing the disc positioned in the positioning slot, a seizing mechanism for seizing the disc, a rotating mechanism fixed to the seizing mechanism for rotating the seizing mechanism, a coordinate-displacing mechanism connected to the rotating mechanism for controlling the horizontal and vertical positions of the seizing mechanism and at least one disc player for receiving the disc released from the seizing mechanism.
