Abstract
A simplified device is provided for fixing a floating chassis to a main chassis. The floating chassis fixing device has a control member movably mounted on one side of the floating chassis, a push-in member for transferring a disc to a playing position and a disc guide for guiding the disc to the playing position, which are coupled to the control member such that they are interlocked. When no disc is loaded, the control member, the push-in member and the disc guide are engaged with the main chassis to fix the floating chassis to the main chassis.
Claims5
A floating chassis fixing device for a disc player, comprising:
- a floating chassis mounted thereon with a disc guide for guiding a disc inserted from a disc insertion slot to a playing position;
- a push-in member pivotally movably associated with the insertion of the disc to transfer the disc to the playing position;
- and
- a control member movably associated with a disc ejecting operation to separate a disc damper from the disc at the playing position so as to free the disc from being clamped in a main chassis for supporting the floating chassis in a floating state and for fixing the floating chassis when a disc is ejected from the disc insertion slot,
- wherein the disc guide and the push-in member are pivoted in association with a movement of the control member, and
- the control member, the disc guide and the push-in member are abutted to the main chassis in association with the disc ejecting operation to fix the floating chassis to the main chassis.
