  • Publication number: 20070028253
    Abstract: There is provided a disk loading apparatus capable of centering and loading a disk reliably with a simple structure. There is provided an anti-sinking rib protruding forward from the outer peripheral surface in the lower end portion of each boss of a disk stopper 6, that is, toward an insertion slot 4a. That is, anti-sinking ribs 6aa, 6ba, and 6da are provided, respectively, on the bosses 6a, 6b, and 6d. These anti-sinking ribs have a function of receiving the inserted disk at the lower end portion of each boss so that the disk may not get into under the disk stopper 6.

  • Publication number: 20060259915
    Abstract: A disc loader according to the present invention is constructed in such a manner that the right side portion of a conventional disc stopper 6 is extended, and then at the leading end part thereof, i.e., to the even more anterior right of a boss 6b provided at the original right end part of the disc stopper 6, a boss 6d is provided which is formed in a substantially columnar shape and which extends downward from the bottom surface of the disc stopper 6. This boss 6d is adapted so that the distance between the boss 6d and the right side surface of the chassis 4 shown by a dimension line A becomes smaller than the radius of a small-diameter disc, that is, less than 4 cm. With this construction, the center of the disc 2 is always located at the left side of the boss 6d; therefore, the disc 2 does not become stuck between the boss on the disc stopper 6 and the right side surface of the chassis 4, and also the disc 2 is guided inwardly by the boss 6d, thereby permitting smooth centering and chucking.
