A tone arm according to an embodiment includes: a first arm configured to rotate around a rotation shaft in a horizontal direction of a record; a second arm configured to rotate around a free fulcrum of the first arm as the first arm rotates; a motor configured to rotatably drive the first arm; and a controller configured to control a phase angle of the motor so that the second arm is disposed with a longitudinal axis thereof extends in a tangent direction of a groove of the record at a contact position of a stylus attached to a tip portion of the second arm and the groove of the record.

A detection system of vinyl record players for detecting end of playback is revealed. The system includes a vinyl record player and a vinyl record control module. The vinyl record player consists of a tone arm, a cartridge connected to one end of the tone arm, a stylus connected to the cartridge, and a turntable. The vinyl record control module is arranged at the vinyl record player and is composed of a signal analysis unit, a signal output unit, a signal reading unit, and a vinyl record control unit electrically connected. The vinyl record control unit is electrically connected to a turntable control unit for stopping rotation of the turntable, or electrically connected to a tone arm lifting unit for ascending the tone arm, or electrically connected to both the turntable control unit and the tone arm lifting unit.

An electric arm lifting and turntable's auto-stop assembly of a record player is revealed. A record player is disposed with a power-driven turntable, a rotatable and movable arm disposed on one side of the turntable, a lift mechanism used for pushing against and moving the arm upward, and a sensor. The arm is moveable over the turntable. The sensor is arranged at an arm rotating shaft of the arm and used for sending a signal while detecting that the arm is moved to a lift point over the turntable. The lift mechanism is activated to move the arm upward and the turntable is stopped simultaneously for protecting a needle on the arm while the sensor detects that the arm has been moved from the turntable to the lift point.
