4. When
playing ends and the pick-up cartridge enters the
lead-out
groove
which
is spaced
out, the engagement
advances more then it is returned by the projection.
Because
of this,
the
engagement
is pressed
by the
projection as shown in Fig. 4, causing the main gear to
turn and engage with the turntable spindle gear. Thus
the change cycle is started.
5. During the return operation the engagement and lower
trip which
have
moved
are returned
to their original
position by the reject button coming into contact with
the bottom of the lower trip. At this moment the switch
lever operates
with
the
help
of the main
gear cam,
switching off the power just before the rotation should
stop.
This completes the automatic cycle.
Tonearm lift and return mechanism:
1. When
the main
gear starts
to rotate
at the end of
playing, the return lever rotates under the action of the
main gear cam
to press the elevator cam. The upward
movement of the elevator cam is directly converted into
movement
of the elevator, lifting up the tonearm. (Fig.
5)
2. The tonearm
is returned by the arm lever the end of
which presses it as the main gear rotates. (Fig. 6)
