ABSTRACT:
The object is to allow to dispose the lock pin of the eject/lock mechanism of the disk device at the outermost side of the disk tray, and to enhance the packaging effective area of the wiring board to its maximum. Moreover, the eject/lock mechanism is protected even if an impact load is applied to the disk device built into the laptop PC, dashing out of the disk tray is intercepted, and system safety and reliability are improved. A disk device composed to load/unload with a recording medium by making a disk tray advance and retreat in a chassis case, wherein an eject/lock mechanism A operating together with a self-holding type solenoid16is arranged in the front edge corner portion of the disk tray1and, on the other hand, a start lever18that changes over the eject/lock mechanism to the lock state extends along a sidewall of the disk tray, a lock lever8that can swing and fit with the chassis case8is provided on the disk tray1so that the oscillation of the lock lever8be inhibited when the disk tray1receives the impact load in the load state.
