Definitions

  • the invention relates to automated devices, equipment and methods for handling objects, with emphasis to applications where information-storage medium objects such as compact discs are to be automatically handled in order to be processed.
  • FIG 5 is a cross-section view of the pickup device in object-engaged status, disk inclined embodiment
  • disks For ease of the description the various handled objects will be referred herein as "disks".
  • the object holders are horizontal, the disks are vertically stacked and the pickup device moves vertically along the axis of the object holder in order to engage or disengage a disk, being subsequently transported above a different location.
  • the actuator 4 attached to the external axial movement means 12, by which the entire pickup device is transported, comprises a central cylindrical bore that houses the ring 1 , component of the switching mechanism.
  • the ring 1 is rigidly attached to the actuator 4.
  • the actuator 4 continues its movement, approaching the guiding element.
  • the arms 8 glide through the holes 10 of the pierced blades 9 forcing them to retract completely inside the guiding element 6.
  • the movement stops when the element 4 reaches its lowest position, closest to the guiding element, when the pickup device is in "switching position", as shown in Fig 2.
  • FIG 7 A possible embodiment is shown in Fig 7, where the apparatus 22 is placed over a disk processing master equipment 20, comprising processing units 25, provided with trays 18. Requests for disk changing are correspondingly sent to the apparatus by the master equipment whenever needed, for example via RS232 interface. Disk retainers 24 for the disk stacks are placed on the table, around the master equipment served by the apparatus.
  • the apparatus may comprise a keyboard 23 for interfacing with the human operator. Depending on the number of disks to be processed, the user can choose the number and the positions of the disk retainers 24 to be used during each automated processing cycle. Once the configuration selected, the user have to place the disk retainers on the table, precisely at the locations further accessed by the apparatus.
