ABSTRACT:
A container for holding at least one recording disk, including a container base formed with a circular opening and a disk holding space, and engaging and holding members movable between a first position for engaging and holding the disk and a second position for releasing the disk from the holding engagement, the engaging and holding members in the first position preventing the disks from coming out from the disk holding space. The disk held in the container can be placed on a turntable of a disk playing system without requiring user's manual attention. Such a disk playing system includes, besides the turntable, a loading base, release pins, a disk cam for actuating the release pins, and a vertically moving screw. When the disk container is placed on the loading base, the disk cam rotates to move the release pins so as to bring the release pins into engagement with the respective engaging and holding members, and to move the latter to the second position in which the disk is placed on the turntable. Meanwhile the loading base is moved by the vertically moving screw away from the disk and allows a pickup to have access to the recording surface of the disk.
