Abstract: There is provided a tilting mechanism. The tilting mechanism includes a drive source configured to drive a plate, a movement unit connected to the drive source, a conveyance unit configured to be moved linearly by the movement unit, and a plate support member to which the plate is fixed and which is partially engaged with the conveyance unit so that the plate support member is moved by the conveyance unit. The plate is moved linearly by linearly moving the conveyance unit together with the plate support member. Tilting operation of the plate is performed by tilting the plate support member, the tilting of the plate support member being caused by pushing the plate support member by the conveyance unit, which moves linearly in a state that the linear movement of the plate support member is stopped.

Abstract: A display device includes: a display portion; and a storage member configured to house the display portion and including an opening through which the display portion passes, wherein the display device further includes: a plurality of cover members configured to cover the opening and to travel from the opening to a region of the storage member adjacent to the opening so as to be overlapped with each other at the region; travel control means configured to cause the plurality of cover members to transfer to a covering position in which the opening is closed by the plurality of cover members, and also to a overlapping position in which the plurality of cover members are overlapped with each other, and configured to cause the display portion to transfer to rise-up and storage positions; and only one drive source configured to drive the travel control means.

Abstract: An auto player technique is provided in a recording/reproducing apparatus storing a plurality of disks, wherein size of the apparatus can be reduced in height and width and positioning accuracy can be increased. A pair of tray stockers are disposed right and left. A lifter transporting the tray in a vertical direction is disposed behind the tray stockers. The lifter includes a tray extracting mechanism selectively extracting disks from the tray stockers. The tray extracting mechanism simultaneously engages with two trays disposed at the same height of the right and left tray stockers when extracting trays. A recording/reproducing device is disposed below the lifter. A drive mechanism engages with the recording/reproducing device to shift it in a right and left direction. A lock mechanism is provided to engage with the recording/reproducing device when the drive mechanism is disengaged from the recording/reproducing device.

Abstract: A multi-loaded disk drive arrangement comprises a disk table for holding a plurality of disks arranged on the same circumference thereof, a loading mechanism for rotating the table to move a desired disk so that it is placed at a desired position, and a movement mechanism for moving an optical pick-up located below the table so that it is placed at a predetermined position and a single drive source.
