ABSTRACT:
A shock absorbing device adapted to be incorporated in a reading mechanism of a CD-ROM having a driving motor of a substantial weight arranged at a first end side of the reading mechanism, includes a base frame defining therein an interior space for receiving and holding the reading mechanism therein. A plurality of shock absorbing elements, made of a resilient material, are arranged between the reading mechanism and support members that are fixed inside the interior space of the base frame for absorbing vibration/shock caused by the operation of the CD-ROM. At least one counterweight plate is attached to the reading mechanism at a second end side thereof to be opposite to the driving motor in order to balance the weight of the motor.
