ABSTRACT:
A disk cassette loading mechanism for a disk driving apparatus, capable of preventing the accidental removal of a disk cassette from the disk driving apparatus. The disk cassette loading mechanism comprises a first operating member which engages a disk cassette inserted in the disk driving apparatus upon the arrival of the disk cassette at a predetermined position and remains engaging the disk cassette until the disk cassette becomes ready to be ejected, a second operating member which is turned resiliently in a cassette loading direction after the first operating member has engaged the disk cassette to load the disk cassette, and a third operating member which comes into engagement with the first operating means to turn the first operating member so that the first operating member is disengaged from the disk cassette when the disk cassette is moved to an ejecting position where the disk cassette is ready to be ejected without interfering with any mechanism of the disk driving apparatus by operating the sliding plate of the disk driving apparatus for cassette ejecting operation. Thus, the disk cassette loading mechanism prevents the accidental removal of the disk cassette from the disk driving apparatus.
