DISK LIFTING GEAR

PURPOSE:To keep off any damage to a disk as well as to aim at the promotion of efficiency in lifting operation of the disk by making a slider connected to a disk receiving member so as to be moved up and down with a rotary arm. CONSTITUTION:A roller 23 uplifts a guide bar 21 as rolling along this bar 21 through rotation of a rotary arm 23 by a motor 25. Next, a slider 5 goes up along a lifting guide 20, and a disk receiving member 4 also goes up so that a peripheral edge of a disk 3 is engaged with a V-groove 4a of this member 4. At time of rotation starting of the arm 22, the slider 5 goes up at low speed, and since the member 4 is engaged with the disk 3 at time of this low speed travel, no impact is added to the disk 3 so that any damage will not be caused there. Next, after the member 4 is engaged with the disk 3, the disk 3 separates fro ma magazine 2 and goes up, but the member 4 is speeded up till the arm 22 comes to horizontality, and the disk 3 is uplifted up to the specified height by the member 4 as being decelerated after this horizontality, thus the member 4 is stopped in the state that the arm 22 is rotated as far as 180 degrees.
