LOADING MECHANISM FOR LOADING AN INTERCHANGEABLE DISC-LIKE STORAGE MEDIUM INTO A HOUSING

摘要

The invention relates to a loading mechanism for loading an interchangeable disc-like storage medium into a housing, in which a disk drive having a holder for the storage medium and an optical scanning device for the latter are arranged. It achieves the object of providing a loading mechanism which is space-saving and permits loading and unloading which takes care of the motor of the disk drive and of the storage medium. For this purpose, this loading mechanism is formed from a loading table (7) for the storage medium (4) which can be pivoted between a loading position and a deposition position on the holder (12), and an actuating apparatus (10/ 2) for said loading table (7) .
