ABSTRACT:
An automatic magnetic recording medium ejecting mechanism for use in combination with a magnetic disk driving unit employs the spindle motor of the magnetic disk driving unit as a driving source for ejecting a magnetic disk cassette therefrom. The automatic magnetic recording medium ejecting mechanism includes, as essential components thereof, a gear mechanism for transmitting the rotative force of the spindle motor to an ejecting plate so that the ejecting plate is moved to a standby position where the ejecting plate is locked by a pressing and locking device which locks the ejecting plate at the standby position and presses the magnetic disk cassette for ejection until a magnetic disk cassette is inserted in the magnetic disk driving unit, a switch for detecting the completion of operation of the spindle motor for moving the ejecting plate to the standby position, and a switch control device interlocked with the gear mechanism for controlling the switch. The gear mechanism includes a pinion which disconnects a subsequent gear train from the spindle motor when the spindle motor operates in the normal direction for a read/write operation, and connects the subsequent gear train to the spindle motor when the spindle motor operates in the reverse direction for ejecting the magnetic disk cassette.
