Patent ID: 7113457

Claim:
A system for reproducing a recording medium, comprising: an insertion opening; a storing device for storing the recording medium; a carrying device having rollers for carrying the recording medium; an instructing section outputting an insertion instruction of inserting the recording medium into the system; an insertion detector, which is disposed between the insertion opening and the rollers, detecting the recording medium inserted in the insertion opening; and a controller controlling the carrying device in response to the insertion instruction and a detection signal produced by the insertion detector, wherein the controller controls the carrying device to load the recording medium within a first predetermined time when the insertion detector detects the recording medium after the insertion instruction is output, such that the carrying device is actuated in a loading operation, wherein the controller controls the carrying device to unload the recording medium when the insertion detector does not detect the recording medium within the first predetermined time after the insertion instruction is output, such that the carrying device is actuated in an unloading operation, and wherein the controller continues the unloading operation of the carrying device for a second predetermined time when the carrying device is actuated in the unloading operation.
