Abstract
A transfer device is provided that ensures transfer of information carriers of different dimensions due to a single loading device including a detection mechanism means () associated with linking elements (). Upon the insertion of an information carrier, the linking elements () cooperates with a projection (A,B) set in relation with the size of the inserted information carrier. The projection is supported by a slider () that actuates clamping and driving mechanisms to ensure the setting of the inserted information carrier in its operative position. Thus, the synchronization between the clamping and driving mechanisms is made in relation with the size of said carrier.
