Patent ID: 10008234

Abstract:
A disc transfer device according to the present disclosure is a disc transfer device that transfers a disc in a first direction from a first position toward a third position via a second position, and includes a roller, a roller support mechanism, a first retaining member, a second retaining member, and a retaining member support mechanism. The roller rotates in a state of contact with a disc end face on one side in a second direction being orthogonal to the first direction, until the disc reaches the third position from the first position. The roller support mechanism supports the roller such that the roller is in contact with the transferred disc and is moveable in the first direction and the second direction. The first retaining member extends in the first direction, and is brought into contact with the disc end face on the other side in the second direction until the disc reaches at least the second position from the first position. The second retaining member is brought into contact with the disc end face on the other side in the second direction until the disc reaches the third position from the second position. The retaining member support mechanism supports the second retaining member such that the second retaining member is in contact with the transferred disc and is moveable in the first direction and the second direction.
