Further, even when the ON time of the sensor 821 is shorter than the predetermined time, the drive motor 300 is reversely rotated to eject the disk. Of course, it can also be configured so that two disks having outer diameters of 12 cm and 8 cm can be loaded.

  The operation of this embodiment will be described below.

  When the disk 11 is inserted as shown in FIG. 7 from the state before the disk shown in FIG. 2 is inserted, the sensors 820 and 821 detect that the disk 11 has been inserted and the drive motor 300 is driven. By driving the drive motor 300, the gear shaft 30 rotates, the driving force from the drive motor 300 is transmitted through the gear shaft 30 and each gear, and the lower roller member 70 rotates. A predetermined pressing force is applied to the disk 11 sandwiched between the upper roller 80 and the lower roller member 70 by a plate spring 210 that presses the upper roller 80. Then, as the lower roller member 70 rotates, the disc 11 is conveyed toward the clamper 27 toward the front end of the disc player device. At this time, since the first slider 50 and the second slider 60 are maintained in the state of FIGS. 4A and 5A, the tongue piece 24 of the clamper arm 22 as shown in FIG. Contacts the cam 507 and separates the clamper 27 from the turntable 14 against the biasing force of the spring 22s.

  When the disk 11 is carried into the apparatus by the rotation of the lower roller member 70, the tip of the disk 11 comes into contact with the operating piece 220 provided on the clamper arm 22. As the disk 11 is inserted, the operating piece 220 that comes into contact with the disk 11 swings. The operating piece 220 is pushed by a part of the disk until the disk 11 reaches the playback position, and the operating piece 220 swings away from the disk. To do. When the disk 11 reaches a predetermined reproduction position, the protrusion 221 at the tip of the operating piece 220 comes into contact with the protrusion 502a of the rack gear member 502 of the first slider 50, and moves the rack gear member 502 toward the disk insertion slot 12. The rack gear 503a and the gear 503 are engaged with each other, and the first slider 50 is moved by the driving force of the driving motor 300.

  14 shows a state in which the movement operation of the first slider 50 is started, FIG. 15 shows a state in which the first slider has slightly moved, and FIG. 16 shows a state in which the clamper arm 22 has moved to the disk side and the disk has been clamped. FIG. In these figures, the disk is omitted.

  When the rack gear 503a and the gear 503 mesh with each other, the driving force of the drive motor 300 is transmitted to the gear 503 through the gear shaft 30, the rack gear 503a moves, and the first slider 50 moves to the disk insertion slot 12 side. Go. When the first slider 50 is moved and the tongue 24 of the clamper arm 22 is detached from the cam portion 507, the clamper arm 22 is moved to the disk 11 side by the biasing force of the spring 22s, and the clamper 27 is attached with a magnet. The disc 11 inserted between the clamper 27 and the turntable 11 is pressed and held on the turntable 14 by the pressing force of the turntable 14 and the urging force of the spring and the magnetic force of the magnet provided on the turntable 14.

  Further, as the first slider 50 moves, the lower roller plate 700 is lowered along the guide groove 504 to separate the lower roller member 70 from the disk 11. When the disk 11 is held by the clamper 27, the lower roller member 70 is separated from the disk 11. Further, although the first slider 50 continues to be moved by the drive motor 300, the lower roller member 70 is separated from the disk 11, so that the disk 11 is not slipped and the occurrence of scratches is prevented. . Further, when the lower roller member 70 is separated from the disk 11, the meshing of the gear 30c of the lower roller member 70 and the gear 30d of the gear shaft 30 is released. As a result, the rotation of the lower roller member 70 stops. The cam follower portion of the support member 810 of the upper roller 80 is positioned above the upper portion 505 a of the cam portions 505 and 605, and the upper roller 80 is separated from the disk 11.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, when the drive motor 300 is driven, the first slider 50 moves and slides toward the disk insertion slot 12, so that one end of the lower roller member 70 is inclined to the inclined portion 504 c. After that, the position of the horizontal portion 504b is reached. By the movement of the lower roller member 70 along the guide groove 504, the lower roller member 70 moves to a position where it is separated from the disk and retracted, and the lower roller plate 700 is lowered downward. As the lower roller plate 700 moves, the second slider 60 side also moves to the disk insertion side 12 along the guide groove 604.

  When the first and second sliders 50 and 60 move to the recording / reproducing positions shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, the engaging projections 21c, 21d, 21e, and 21f provided on the floating chassis 21a are The engagement grooves 50c and 50d of the slider 50 and the engagement grooves 60e and 60f of the second slider 60 are disengaged, and the engagement protrusions 21c and 21d provided on the floating chassis 21a and the engagement grooves 50c, The engagement of 50 d is released, and the floating chassis 21 is supported by the damper 40. Further, cam follower portions 813 and 814 provided on the roller support member 810 abut against the cam portions 505 and 605, respectively, so that the roller support member 810 moves upward and the upper roller 80 is separated from the disk 11.

  When the lower roller member 70 is moved from a position where it contacts the disk to a position where it is retracted, the switch piece 711 comes into contact with a switch attached to the printed circuit board, and the switch piece 711 presses the switch, thereby driving the motor 300. Stops, the movement of the first slider unit 50 is stopped, and the recording / reproducing state is entered. As described above, when the slider main body 501 is in the recording / reproducing position, the slider main body 501 is locked at the recording / reproducing position by an eject pin interlocked with an eject button (not shown).

  On the other hand, when the eject button is pressed to eject the disk 11, the eject pin is unlocked, and the first slider 50 is moved by the biasing force of the biasing spring 508 as shown in FIGS. The state of b) returns to the state of FIG. 4A and FIG. 5A, and the shape of the cam groove 504 and the cam portions 505 and 605 described above as the first and second sliders 50 and 60 move. As a result, the lower roller member (conveying roller) 70 rises upward in the figure and comes into contact with the disk 11, and then the upper roller (guide roller) 80 falls in the downward direction in the figure and comes into contact with the disk 11. Then, the disk 11 is sandwiched and the state shown in FIG. 2 is restored.
