Abstract:
An apparatus for moving a carrier includes a housing and a carrier having a retracted closed position and an ejected open position with respect to the housing. The carrier includes a first magnet and a second magnet. A latch is provided having two states and having a third magnet located between the first magnet and the second magnet. In a first state, the carrier is in the retracted closed position due to a magnetic coupling between the first magnet and the third magnet. In a second state, the carrier is in the ejected open position due to a magnetic coupling between the second magnet and the third magnet.
