Abstract
A disc-record player includes a lazy Susan type changer mechanism (5) arranged within a housing, a drawer (7) movable through an opening in the housing, and having a supporting surface for moving information discs into and out of the housing for loading and unloading from the changer; a scanning device (3) for writing and/or reading information discs which have been transferred from a supporting surface on the changer to a turntable (17) of the scanning device; and mechanisms for rotating the lazy Susan and moving the scanning device relative to the lazy Susan for picking up a disc placed on the lazy Susan, and moving it into a scanning position. A positioning device has a drive unit for positioning the scanning device and lazy Susan relative to each other. The scanning device is moved to transfer a disc to the scanning position responsive to rotation of the lazy Susan.
