  • Patent number: 7519981
    Abstract: A cartridge for an information recording medium includes a cartridge case, an opening cover, detachably mounted to a rear side opening of the cartridge case, for enabling the information recording medium to be withdrawn or inserted with respect to the cartridge case, and a holding unit for preventing movement of the information recording medium by supporting the information recording medium when the information recording medium is received and/or withdrawn into/from the cartridge case. The holding unit includes a pair of elastic pressure parts, elastically formed on the opening cover, for elastically supporting the information recording medium to prevent movement of the information recording medium when the opening cover is not attached to the cartridge case, and a release unit for releasing the pair of elastic pressure parts when the opening cover is attached to the cartridge case so that the information recording medium is rotatable in the cartridge case.

  • Patent number: 7184372
    Abstract: An apparatus and method of ejecting/loading a tray of an optical disk player using a digitizer connected to a personal computer (PC) or a keyboard, even though an EJECT button is not installed on a control panel of an optical disk includes using a optical disk control program stored in the optical disk player. The optical disk control program is to be installed in a personal computer (PC) and controls the ejection/loading of a tray of an optical disk player. If a predetermined key or key combination is entered through the computer, an EJECT or LOAD command is applied to the optical disk player in response to entering of the predetermined key combination via the optical disk control program. The tray of the optical disk player can be ejected/loaded using the keyboard or digitizer, and thus there is no need to install the EJECT button in the optical disk player.
