ABSTRACT:
A disc driving device includes an insertion slot for a disc cartridge, a cartridge holder for receiving an inserted cartridge, a slider which engages the front end of the inserted cartridge and is displaced inward therewith, a lock lever for locking a cam plate in an ejecting position, and the cam plate having cam slots engaging rollers on the cartridge holder for moving the cartridge holder to a loading position when the lock lever is released. The slider moves one end of a spring member in conjunction with insertion of the disc cartridge part way into the device, such that the spring member becomes compressed and reoriented and exerts a repulsive force along the insertion direction in order to draw the disc cartridge the remainder of the way in, and also releases the lock lever to move the cartridge to the loading position automatically.
