Abstract

Un élément d’arbre (541) est doté, au niveau de sa section de tête, d’une section en saillie (543) faisant saillie d’une surface d’extrémité (542F) dans la direction axiale d’un rouleau (542). Cela provoque l’application d’une charge depuis l’extérieur d’un dispositif à disque sur la surface supérieure d’un corps de carter (110), et même si la surface supérieure fléchit vers l’intérieur du corps de carter (110), la surface supérieure du corps de carter (110) vient au contact de la section en saillie (543) et ne fait pas pression sur le rouleau (542). Par conséquent, le rouleau (542) peut tourner sans difficulté et sans être empêché de tourner, et un disque optique (10) peut être transporté sans difficulté par un bras d’éjection (531), un bras de chargement (533) et un bras de préhension (534).
