  • Publication number: 20130263163
    Abstract: An emergency ejection protecting module is disclosed to protect the emergency ejection device in an optical disc drive. When the optical disc drive reads/writes a disc, moving a protection door at the case to reveal an ejection hole causes an abnormal operation of the emergency ejection. The contact end protruded from the protection door activates a sensor to transmit an ejection signal to the optical disc drive, and the optical disc drive starts the ejection operation to protect the disc.

  • Publication number: 20120042329
    Abstract: The invention provides a jam-proof device of a slot-in optical disk drive. In the jam-proof device, a contact pin protrudes from one end of the loading bar, the other end of the loading bar is pivoted with a pivot on a first side of the casing, and a block protrudes adjacent to the pivot. One end of the unloading bar is pivoted on a second side of the casing opposite to the first side, and a reception end is formed at the other end of the unloading bar to extend to a center of the casing. A distance between the block and the reception end at a default position is shorter than a diameter of an 8-cm disc to prevent the disc from entering the slot-in optical disk drive.

  • Publication number: 20110214135
    Abstract: There is provided a data processing device able to surely eject a recording medium out of a main body of the device even when the recording medium is received in a case while a locking member having adherence and elasticity of the case is locked with a center hole of the recording medium. A CD player includes: a main body of the device 3; a carrying unit 5 for ejecting and retracting a CD 2 from the main body of the device 3; a clamping and reading out unit 6 for reading out data recorded on the CD 2; and a microcomputer 4. The carrying unit 5 includes: a disc guide 17; and a roller arm 18 having a carrying roller 20. The microcomputer 4 makes the turntable 26 of the clamping and reading out unit 6 rotate while the CD 2 is held between the disc guide 17 and the carrying roller 20 when the carrying unit 5 fails to eject the CD 2 out of the main body of the device 3.
