A disk loading/ejection mechanism in a disk device inserting and taking out a disk-shaped storage medium (disk D) through an opening and enabling a combined relatively large space to be secured inside the disk device, provided with an offset drive function unit for shifting the loading/ejection direction when inserting and taking out the disk D to a loading/ejection direction (B) offset from the straight direction (A) perpendicularly intersecting the opening direction of the opening.

Disk-shaped storage medium loading/ejection mechanism, disk device, and disk autochanger

A disc autochanger improving on a conventional disc separating mechanism to enable the device to be reduced in size is provided, comprising a plurality of disc holding members(-to-), a splitting membersplitting the plurality of disc holding membersto separate them at the disc holding member for playback/recording, and an elevator mechanismmaking the plurality of disc holding membersmove in the elevation direction to make the disc holding member for playback (recording) move to the position for splitting the disc holding members and further enlarge the split.
