ABSTRACT:
There is provided a disk apparatus in which a slide member is movable in predetermined directions by engaging guiding holes provided on side surfaces of the slide member with engaging protrusions provided on respective side walls of a frame. The slide member and a latch lever are biased by a single spring. The holder is supported by a supporting member provided on the slide member. The holder has a hole which aligns with the supporting member to enable the holder to move downwardly. The holder is movable between a first position and a second position. The disk cartridge is ejected at the first position, and is loaded at the second position. The slide member holds the holder and is movable between a third position and a fourth position so that the holder is at the second position when the slide member is at the third position and the holder is at the first position when the slide member is at the fourth position. The frame has side walls extending in the insertion direction. The slide member is slidably supported by upper ends of the side walls. A guiding hole is provided on a side of the slide member. An engaging protrusion is provided on at least one of the side walls. The engaging protrusion extends in the insertion direction, and engages with the guiding hole so that the slide member is slidable only in an extending direction of the guiding hole.
