ABSTRACT:
A disc reproducing apparatus is disclosed in which a disc is delivered from a disc inserting opening to a predetermined position within a player, a clamper arm that extends over a turntable for clamping the disc is operated to fix the disc on the turntable, and then the turntable is rotated to reproduce information recorded in the disc. A disc guide plate is pivotally mounted to the clamper arm such that the disc guide plate engages and disengages the clamper arm. A disc guiding recess into which a small-diameter disc can be fitted is provided to the disc guide plate. When the small-diameter disc is delivered, the small-diameter disc is fitted into the disc guiding recess to be aligned with a clamp position, and when a large-diameter disc is delivered, the large-diameter disc pushes the disc guide plate away to be aligned with the clamp position on the turntable.
