ABSTRACT:
A disk transfer device includes first and second edge supporting transfer elements. First and second edge supporting transfer elements are urged toward each other, thereby supporting a disk between them. When no disk is between them the transfer elements are a predetermined distance apart. That predetermined distance is less than the diameter of a disk. Therefore, when a disk is inserted in the disk transfer device at an eject position by a user, the first and second edge supporting transfer elements are pushed apart until they support the disk at diametrically opposed points on the disk. The movement of the first and second transfer elements is detected and the detector to produce a signal indicating that a disk has been inserted in the disk transfer device. In response to this signal, automatic loading of the disk is initiated.
