The basic movement the CD changer is describedas follows.
See 2 and 3.
• The CD changerbasicallyconsistsofthetray(208)whichslides
on the
CD chassis (224), and the maingear (238) to movethe
tray. As the maingear rotates, the projection (Zenbea
Pi.n)
on
the main gear causes rotation of the CD up/down cam (241),
resulting in up/down of the CD mechanism and CD chucking.
The maingear is driven by Loading Motor MTR1.
Onthetray (208),theturntable (209)toload a discandthe disc
select motor MTR2 to rotate the turntable are set up. MTR2
controls the turntable movements.MTR2 which rotateson the

can bechanged withthe trayclosed or at the maingear position

The signals PHi and PH2 change depending on the height of

screen is placed low, the LED lightis passed to makethe photo
transistor inside the sensor turn ON, resulting in low output
(approx.0.2V). Ontheotherhand,whenthe screenisplacedhigh,

In case the main gear rotates once clockwise while the CD
mechanism is not chucking a disc andthe tray isopen, a series of
movements are performed as follows:
The open tray is closed. Complete closing is followed by UP
movement of the CD mechanism (disc chucking movement).
When the main gear continuesrotation, a series of movementsto
open the tray is conducted again.
These movements are equivalent to the following actual use
condition; when the tray isopen, a disc is loaded on the turntable.
Then the tray is closed to play CD. In this play mode the tray is
opened.
'The reverse movements are performed by rotating the main
counterclockwise;
when
the main
gear
is rotated
gear
once
counterclockwisewhile the CD mechanism is chucking adisc and
the tray is open, the tray is closed. The DOWN movement of the
CD mechanism and then the tray open movement follows. The
movement to open/close the tray, which does not simply correspond to the rotating direction of the main gear, will change
according to the CD movement mode.
The Table 3 below shows the above-mentioned movement. The
CD stop condition is main in the actual use of the CD changer.
Figure 5-1to 5-6 and 6-1 to 6-6 shows a series ofprocess to close
the opening tray with the CD mechanism down, and Fig. 7, the
Timing Chart of Electric Signals.
The main gear to slide the tray is of rack' pinions.
Double pinion gearsof the main gear are set vertically. Their
diameters are slightly different. One gear with larger diameter
engages withthe rack gear onthe left sideofthetray;the otherone
with smaller diameter engages with the rackgear on the rightside
of the tray.
