Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2006041492A1] Vending apparatus for optical disk restoration has a housing (1) for receiving the disk from a customer; a disk inspection device (2) to determine whether the disk is correctly positioned for polishing and providing a signal indicative of disk position, a disk perforation detecting device providing a signal indicative of any perforation in a reflective layer of the disk; and a device for ejecting a perforated disk from the housing. A user interface (6) requests and receives payment from a customer in response to a signal by the detecting device (16/17) that the reflective layer is imperforate and provides a signal indicating receipt of correct payment. Polishing wheels (22/23) polish, with slurry, an exposed light receiving surface of a data carrying protective layer of the disk (32) to ameliorate scratches in response to a signal from the user interface (6) of correct payment a device ejects a polished disk from the housing (1) to a customer.
