The claw is rotated in the direction C about the fulcrum so that the tip of the claw projects from the disk table 552. The rotation of the chuck claw 553 in the C direction is regulated by the stopper portion 553b formed on the chuck claw 553 abutting on a predetermined portion of the disk table 552.

As described above, since the chuck pawls 553 protrude and retract from the upper surface of the disk table 552 to clamp the disk 12, a rotatable driven portion for pressing the disk from above the disk 12 is unnecessary. I can do it. The force for unclamping by the chuck claw 553 is equal to the force of the existing pickup moving mechanism 5.
8, the structure can be simplified as compared with the case where a mechanism for separately providing a driving force for the unclamping and the clamping is provided.

FIG. 22 is a diagram showing the back surface side of the housing for accommodating the pickup / chuck rotation motor mounting plate 500. On the back side of the casing, the disc 12 is mounted at a position corresponding to the lower disc 12 selected by the plate separating slide plate 51. A vibration restricting member 59 is provided so as to be rotatable by a pin 592 so that it can be immersed in the vibration. Plate separation slide plate 5
On the lower surface of the eleventh, an emergence control mechanism 59a connected to the vibration regulating member 59 is provided. When the plate separating slide plate 511 shifts from the first state (see FIG. 12) to the second state (see FIG. 13), the movement control mechanism 59a causes the vibration regulating member 59 to protrude toward the magazine. On the other hand, when the plate separating slide plate 51 shifts from the second state to the first state, the vibration regulating member 5
9 is immersed in the housing.

More specifically, the emergence control mechanism 59a includes a shaft 59
b, one end side 59c is engaged with an L-shaped groove 511a formed in the plate separating slide plate 511, and the other end side 59d is a pin 59c of the vibration regulating member 59. It is connected to one end 591. Therefore, when the plate separating slide plate 511 moves in the X direction in the figure (the direction in which the plate separating operation is performed), the emergence control mechanism 59a rotates clockwise in the figure, and accordingly, the vibration regulating member 59 moves. It rotates counterclockwise and projects to the magazine side. The one end 59c rides on the long groove portion of the L-shaped groove 511a by the clockwise rotation of the emergence control mechanism 59a, so that the protruding state of the vibration regulating member 59 is maintained.

The vibration regulating member 59 is formed with an arc-shaped concave groove corresponding to the arc shape and thickness of the peripheral edge of the disk 12, and as shown in FIG. The arcuate groove is fitted into the periphery of the lower disk 12 of the selection disk 12, and the upright portion 1 of the bottom plate 15 is formed.
Combined with the holding of the step 5e, the vibration of the disk 12 is regulated. On the other hand, the plate separating slide plate 511 returns to the Y direction, and the one end side 59c is in the L-shaped groove 511a.
Of the vibration regulating member 5 by the spring 593.
9 is accommodated in the housing. The spring 593 can be made unnecessary by forming the L-shaped groove 511a as shown by the dotted line in FIG.

Here, when a plate separating operation is performed to clamp the selected disk 12, the state shown in FIGS. 13 to 15 is adopted. With respect to the disk 12 located at the lower stage, there is no restriction on the upward movement. In this,
When such a disc player is used in a vehicle, the lower disc 12 may vibrate up and down due to vibration, and may make a rattling noise. Also, if the pickup / chuck rotation motor mounting plate 500 enters the disk 12 in a state where the lower disk 12 is lifted, the pickup / chuck rotation motor mounting plate 500 may hit the disk 12 and scratch the disk 12.

In this embodiment, the above-described vibration restricting member 59 is provided. As described above, the vibration restricting member 59 is moved from the first state (see FIG. 12) to the second state (FIG. 1).
3), by projecting toward the magazine side and fitting the arc-shaped groove into the peripheral edge of the lower disk 12, the rattling of the lower disk 12 can be prevented.
