ABSTRACT:
An information processing apparatus includes a casing having a loading slot through which a cartridge is inserted into and taken out of the casing. In the casing is arranged an information processing unit which has a drive base mechanism for information processing with an optical disc in the cartridge and a loading mechanism for loading and unloading the cartridge onto and from the drive base mechanism. The processing unit is elastically supported in the casing by a vibration insulating mechanism so that vibrations acting on the unit are absorbed. While a cartridge is being inserted into or taken out of the casing, the processing unit is locked at a specified position by a locking mechanism. When the cartridge is completely loaded onto the drive base mechanism, the locking mechanism releases the locked state of the unit.
