Magnetic media duplication system

In a device for duplicating magnetic disks and the like comprising

• an inlet bin having a bottom and adapted to receive at least one magnetic disk, the inlet bin further having exit means for allowing a disk to exit the inlet bin,
• a first motor for driving a picker along a substantially straight path at the bottom of the inlet bin to cause a magnetic disk to be moved out of the inlet bin via the exit means,
• pressure roller means positioned substantially in a straight line path between the exit means and a disk processing device for receiving the disk as it exits from the inlet bin via the exit means, for positioning the disk in a disk processing device, and for extracting the disk from the disk processing device upon completion of processing, and
• leaf spring element positioned in the straight line path between the exit means of the inlet bin and the pressure roller means for altering the direction of the disk as it is extracted from the disk processing device, the leaf spring means deforming in a first direction to permit a disk to exit the inlet bin and pass over the leaf spring element to enter a disk processing device, but not deforming in said first direction when the disk is extracted from a disk processing device, thereby redirecting the disk.
