Patent ID: 7840973

Claim:
An optical disc device, comprising: a main body which has a disc slot; a carrying roller which carries a disc between the disc slot and a disc loading position of the main body at a predetermined speed; a swinging lever whose base end is turnably supported in an inside of the main body by a supporting shaft and to which a disc arriving switch is fixed; a sensing lever whose base end is supported turnably to the supporting shaft so that a relative position of the sensing lever and the swinging lever is changeable; and a lever driving system which drives the swinging lever and the sensing lever, wherein the swinging lever and the sensing lever are simultaneously swung around the support shaft by the lever driving system, wherein a top end of the sensing lever contacts an outer periphery of the disc, which is loaded in a disc loading position, to operate the disc arriving switch during a swinging operation of the swinging lever and the sensing lever, wherein the sensing lever pushes the disc arriving switch, and wherein the lever driving system drives the swinging and sensing levers to retreat them away from the disc according to the operation of the disc arriving switch by the sensing lever.
