摘要:
An information recording medium conveyer is provided, which provides countermeasures against power interruptions with high reliability. When a power interruption occurs during a loading operation with a conveying roller, the first unloading operation is initiated. When the outputs from detection sensors satisfy a predetermined condition during the first unloading operation, the process is initialized to cause the conveying roller to initiate a re-loading operation, thereby loading an information recording medium into a tray. On the other hand, when the outputs from the detection sensors do not change in accordance with a predetermined sequence during the re-loading operation, the process initiates the second unloading operation. When the detection sensors have detected the information recording medium during the second unloading operation and then the outputs from the detection sensors satisfy the predetermined condition, the process is initialized to cause the conveying roller to initiate another loading operation, thereby loading the information recording medium into the tray. Even when a power interruption occurs during an unloading operation, the same processing is performed to eject the information recording medium.

During an ejecting or unloading operation of an information recording medium by a conveying roller, if detection signals are output from detecting sensors indicating that the object being ejected or unloaded has already been discharged from an insertion hole although it has not, then the insertion hole is closed by the door. If, for some reasons, the door fails to close the insertion hole within a predetermined time, the conveying roller performs a forcible ejecting operation, whereby the object left inside is forcibly ejected to the outside. Thus, ejection or unloading of a medium is carried out without failure.

To assuredly determine whether a shutter pinches a disk in a disk device including a shutter at a disk insertion slot. A shutter control device 10 includes a pinch determining unit 14 that determines whether the disk is pinched by the shutter based on a position of the shutter during a process of closing the shutter, and a sensitivity changing unit that sets sensitivity of determination to be high as ambient temperature of a shutter driving mechanism increases.

摘要:
During a process of closing of a shutter of a disk device, a position of the shutter is detected. A first shutter position indicator indicative of a first position of the shutter and a second shutter position indicator indicative of a second position, which is immediately before the first position, are calculated. Whether a disk is pinched by the shutter is determined based on comparison of a predetermined threshold and the difference between the first shutter position indicator and the second shutter position indicator.

An apparatus for reproducing an optical recording medium includes a system controller. If a digital audio signal is present in a shockproof memory, the system controller sets a first search target address so as to be connected to an absolute time address of a digital audio signal which is last accumulated in the shockproof memory. If there is no digital audio signal in the shockproof memory, the system controller calculates a second search target address based on the absolute time address of the digital audio signal which is last accumulated in the shockproof memory and an elapsed time since no digital audio signal remains in the shockproof memory, and moves the optical pickup to a position on the disk indicated by the second search target address calculated.

An output of an optical sensor in the initial state, that is, when a disc is absent, is set as a reference value. A threshold for detecting the disc is calculated by adding a predetermined variation to the reference value. When the output of the optical sensor exceeds the threshold, it is determined that the disc is present.

A medium detecting device determines whether a medium is set in a device. The medium detecting device includes an optical sensor irradiates a light towards a position where the medium is possibly set, collects a reflected light, and outputs a signal based on the reflected light. A temperature sensor measures temperature around the optical sensor. A threshold selecting unit selects a threshold from among a plurality of thresholds based on the parameter. A determining unit determines whether the medium is set based on comparison of the signal and the threshold selected.

A controller 27 controls the driving member 2 to move the conveyer 23 as a second member to a target position of the receiving rack 10 as a first member in the other direction after moving the conveyer 23 over the target position when the conveyer 23 is moved in one direction to align the conveyer 23 with the target position. After the conveyer 23 is moved over the target position and when the conveyer 23 is moved in the other direction, the controller controls the conveyer 23 to move by a distance of a mechanical error at a time, and then to move intermittently to the target position for aligning the conveyer 23 with the target position.
