Abstract:
A slot-loading optical drive structure is proposed. It includes a base with a gearing for driving a sliding body to move a sliding plate. The sliding plate has a positioning slot for guiding a push rod to push an optical disc into the optical drive. Thereby, a positioning rod can presses one side of the optical disc, the push rod can presses the back end of the optical disc, and a rod connection means can presses the front end of the optical disc. Hence the optical disc can be positioned at a fixed location to make the central hole of the optical disc correctly aligned to the center of the turntable of the traverse inside the optical drive. Thus, the optical disc can be settled on the turntable and the optical drive can rotate the optical disc for data access.

An optical disc drive including a case, a tray, a turntable, a pickup head, a transmission mechanism, and a protecting cover is provided. The tray is movably set inside the case. The turntable is embedded in the tray. The pickup head is movably embedded in the tray. The transmission mechanism is embedded in the tray and connected to the pickup head. And the protecting cover is set on the tray and covers the transmission mechanism. The protecting cover has a protruding structure located on the surface of the protecting cover that corresponds to a non-data area of an optical disc. Moreover, the tray has a protruding structure located on the surface of the tray adjacent to the protecting cover. Furthermore, pads could be substituted for the abovementioned protruding structures.

The present invention discloses an adjusting mechanism of guide rod for an optical disk drive. The adjusting mechanism includes at least a guide rod for supporting an optical pickup head, an adjusting member and an elastic member. The adjusting member is set to be adjacent to the guide rod, and the elastic member provides elasticity to the guide rod to press the guide rod on a side surface of the adjusting member. The guide rod is moved to be close or away from a spindle motor by the adjusting member and in turn to adjust the off-center distance between the spindle motor and a laser beam emitted from the optical pickup head to improve the reading accuracy and efficiency of the optical pickup head.

The present invention discloses a positioning apparatus of guide rod for an optical disk drive. The positioning apparatus includes at least a guide rod for supporting an optical pickup head, a chassis and a spindle plate for supporting a spindle motor. One end of the guide rod is disposed on the chassis and the other end is disposed on the spindle plate. According to the present invention, the accumulating tolerance produced by the assembling is reduced, and the off-center distance between the spindle motor and the laser beam emitted from the optical pickup head is controlled within the precision range. Therefore the reading accuracy and efficiency of the optical pickup head are improved.
Abstract:
A recording reproducing apparatus includes a tray disposed within an outer casing and movable along a tray moving direction between retracted and extended positions. A positioning structure includes a locking member disposed below the tray, and having a base portion fixed on the outer casing, a distal portion and a constricted middle portion that extends into a guiding groove in the tray and that has a cross section smaller than that of the distal portion; and a fastening member fixed to the tray, and having a hooking part for hooking the constricted middle portion of the locking member at the retracted position
Abstract:
A slot-in optical disk drive with a transmission belt includes a base chassis with sliding slots on two sides for accommodating sliding boards. Each of the sliding boards on two sides of the base chassis having a rail member with a guide slot. A driving pulley is disposed on one end of the rail member of the sliding board on one side of the base chassis. A transmission belt is put on the driving pulley and the guide slot. By the matching of the driving mechanism and the driving pulley, the driving pulley is rotated to drive the transmission belt. One end of a synchronous link is disposed on each of the sliding boards while the other end thereof is connected with a synchronously gear. The two synchronously gears engage with each other. When the optical disk is loaded into the disk drive, the optical disk enters the guide slots on two sides and pushes the sliding boards to move toward the two sides of the base chassis. The driving mechanism drives the transmission belt to move the optical disk into the disk drive for retrieving data.
Abstract:
This invention discloses a lock mechanism. The lock mechanism comprises a tray, a locking element, a solenoid, a linked apparatus, a first arm and a boss. The locking element has a protrusion and is rotably fixed on the tray. The solenoid is fixed on the tray and supplies a magnetic force to an active block. The linked apparatus is connected with the active block of the solenoid and is rotably fixed on the tray to push the locking element. The first arm is rotably fixed on the tray to push the linked apparatus and has a protruding rib to push against the protrusion of the locking element. The boss cooperates with the locking element when the tray is loaded. According to this mechanism, the sounds resulted from the locking element and the first arm are happened at the same time.
