ABSTRACT:
A disk loading device has a slide base driven by a driving motor, a first rotary unit rotatably mounted on the slide base, a second rotary unit similarly rotatably mounted on the slide base, means for biasing said first and second rotary units into rotation, guide means mounted parallel to the sliding direction of the slide base and operable to regulate the rotation of said first and second rotary units against biasing of said biasing means and allowing for movement of said first and second rotary units that are moved as one with said slide base, disk position control means mounted to the slide base and at a position facing to said first and second rotary units, and disk transport means mounted to the slide base and operable to transport the disk in a direction prependicular to the sliding direction of the slide base, said first rotary unit being rotated against said biasing means by the joint operation of the disk insertion and the disk position control means and returned under the control of said guide means, said second rotary unit being also rotated against said biasing means by the joint operation of the disk insertion and the disk position control means and returned under the control of said guide means. The disk inserted into the loading device is loosely supported by said first and second rotary units and the disk position control means and transported with said slide base in the sliding direction of the slide base, after which the disk is transported by said transport means in a direction at right angles with said sliding direction so as to be mounted on the turntable.
