Abstract
An apparatus and system for recording, playing, handling, and storing a plurality of media disks in a plurality of configurations and a device for moving any disk into and out of a media disk storage mechanism and into or out of a selected media player/recorder on demand, and a controller for directing operation of the device for moving the disks and controlling selection of operation of the media disk storage mechanism.
Claims9
A media-magazine frame comprising:
- a front face;
- an inner face arranged generally perpendicular to the front face;
- a frame chamfer connecting the front face to the inner face and formed at a reflex angle relative to the inner face;
- a lower protrusion bounding the frame chamfer, extending from the inner face in a direction generally perpendicular to the inner face, and comprising a lower-protrusion chamfer;
- wherein the lower-protrusion chamfer is formed at a reflex angle relative to an upper surface of the lower protrusion;
- an upper protrusion bounding the frame chamfer, extending from the inner face in the direction, and comprising an upper-protrusion chamfer;
- and
- wherein the upper-protrusion chamfer is formed at a reflex angle relative to a lower surface of the upper protrusion.
