本発明はキャリッジロック装置に関し、特に媒体可換型
の情報記録装置の装置移動時のキャリッジロック装置に
関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a carriage lock device, and more particularly to a carriage lock device for moving a medium-replaceable information recording device.
従来、媒体可換型の情報記録装置の装置移動時のキャリ
ッジロック装置としては、主としてフロッピーに用いる
媒体とほぼ同一でヘッド部分をよけた形状のものをヘッ
ドアームにより挟み込む形式のものがあった。このロッ
ク装置では、ロック／アンロックが媒体のロード／アン
ロードと同じ動作で実現でき、取扱上簡便である。Conventionally, as a carriage lock device for moving a medium-replaceable information recording device, there has been a type in which a medium having a shape similar to that used in floppy diskettes but with the head portion removed is held between head arms. With this locking device, locking/unlocking can be achieved with the same operation as loading/unloading a medium, and it is easy to handle.
しかし、この方法のキャリッジロック装置ではロック装
置全体が剛体からなり、ヘッドアームがバネなどにより
押し付けるようになっており、光ディスクのようにヘッ
ドを媒体に押し付けず、数圃をはなして使用する形式の
ものにはキャリッジ側のロックにもバネ性がないため、
キャリッジをロックする力が発生しない。However, in this type of carriage lock device, the entire lock device is made of a rigid body, and the head arm is pressed against the medium by a spring, etc., and the head is not pressed against the medium like an optical disk, but is used by separating several fields. Since the lock on the carriage side does not have spring properties,
No force is generated to lock the carriage.
そこで光ディスクに使用されるキャリッジロック装置と
しては、外部からネジ又は棒などを押し付けてキャリッ
ジを固定する方法がとられていた。Therefore, as a carriage lock device used for an optical disk, a method has been adopted in which a screw or a rod is pressed from the outside to fix the carriage.
しかし、この方法ではロックの操作場所がキャリッジの
近くということで装置の下や、うしろ、横などになって
しまい、操作しにくいうえ、装置の使用範囲をせばめ、
また、ラックなどにも組み込みにくくなってしまうとい
う欠点がある。However, with this method, the lock operation location is near the carriage, which means it is under, behind, or to the side of the device, making it difficult to operate and limiting the range of use of the device.
Another drawback is that it is difficult to incorporate it into a rack or the like.
本発明の目的は上記欠点を解消したキャリッジロック装
置を提供することにある。SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a carriage lock device that eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks.
本発明は媒体可換型情報記録装置のキャリッジロック装
置において、バネ性を保有し、媒体と同じ位置に設置し
てキャリッジを押える板又は棒状体を少なくとも一部に
備えたことを特徴とするキャリッジロック装置である。The present invention relates to a carriage lock device for a medium-replaceable information recording device, which is characterized in that the carriage has a spring property and is provided at least in part with a plate or rod-shaped body that is placed at the same position as the medium and presses the carriage. It is a locking device.
次に、本発明について図面を参照して説明する。 Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.
第１図は本発明の一実施例の斜視図である。本実施例は

で付けていない）。FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is an example implemented in an optical disk device using a medium with a case and a shutter. In the figure, a case 1 has the same shape as a normal case and includes a spindle recess 1a, a shutter lever recess 1b for opening the shutter, a carriage recess 10, etc. (the shutter is not included since it is not necessary in the embodiment).
そしてキャリッジロック２はバネ性のある材料（本実施
例ではウレタンゴムの棒状体）で作られ、図のようにケ

ジロック２がレンズアクチュエータ４を押え、これによ

ため、レンズ逃げ２ａにより逃げている。The carriage lock 2 is made of a resilient material (in this embodiment, a rod-shaped body of urethane rubber) and is fixed to the case 1 as shown in the figure. When this carriage lock 2 is loaded like a normal medium, the carriage lock 2 presses the lens actuator 4 as shown in FIG. 2, thereby locking the carriage. Since the lens 3 is easily scratched, it is provided with a lens relief 2a.
第３図は第２の実施例の平面図である。本実施例は、媒
体のみを使用する光デイスク装置に実施した例である。FIG. 3 is a plan view of the second embodiment. This embodiment is an example implemented in an optical disk device that uses only a medium.
キャリッジロック５はバネ性のある板状体で作られ、第
１の実施例と同様にレンズ逃げ５ａを有している。この
レンズ逃げ５ａをレンズに合せてロードすれば、レンズ

クできる。The carriage lock 5 is made of a plate-shaped body with spring properties, and has a lens relief 5a as in the first embodiment. If this lens relief 5a is aligned with the lens and loaded, the lens will not be held down and the carriage can be locked with the carriage lock 5.
以上説明したように本発明によれば、キャリッジロック
の一部又は全部にバネ性を有する材料を用いることによ

ジロックをできる効果を有するものである。As described above, according to the present invention, by using a material having spring properties for part or all of the carriage lock, it is possible to easily lock the carriage even in an apparatus in which the head does not approach the medium.

キャリッジロックがロックした状態を示す斜視図、第３
図は第２の実施例の平面図である。FIG. 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the carriage lock in FIG. 1 in a locked state, and FIG.
The figure is a plan view of the second embodiment.
