ABSTRACT:
In a disc-record player with a mechanism for loading a disc (29) onto the turntable there are provided transfer means (5) comprising a frame (8) and a disc holder (6) which can be slid into and out of said frame and which can be lowered therewith axially past the turntable (27) into a lower position in which the disc is supported on the turntable and is clear of the disc holder. The disc holder comprises a plurality of spring-loaded catches (46) which are arranged circumferentially around the disc (29) and which are movable in the radial direction. There is provided a plurality of stationary upwardly directed release elements (55) with conical end portions (55a), which, relative to guide means for the transfer means and a disc-pressure member, occupy positions such that the catches (46) are released when the transfer means are lowered past the turntable (27), whereupon the disc-pressure member (32) urges the disc (29) against the turntable (27). Near each catch (46) the disc holder (6 ) has a surface (49, 50) for supporting the disc and the disc holder is open at the upper side.
