Disclosed is a disc insertion preventive device comprising a housing
having a disc slot made on its front side, a generally stopper and a
swinging mechanism. The stopper comprises a flat plate and front and rear
blocking pieces dependent from the opposite lateral edges of the flat
plate. The stopper is pivotally fixed to the housing with the front
blocking piece directed toward the disc slot of the housing. The swinging
mechanism is responsive to absence of a disc in the housing for inclining
the stopper with the rear blocking piece down and with the front blocking
piece up, thus preventing advance of a disc beyond the descendent rear
blocking piece, and is responsive to presence of a disc in the housing
for inclining the stopper with the rear blocking piece up and with the
front blocking piece down, thus preventing insertion of another disc from
the disc slot.
