A display apparatus is configured to enable a cover to be firmly fixed with a compact structure. The display apparatus includes: a one-side coverthat covers a casingfrom one of front and rear sides; an other-side coverthat covers the casingfrom the other of the front and rear sides; and a cover memberthat covers the side surface of the one-side coverfrom the periphery, wherein the one-side coverincludes a fitting clawprotruding to the other-side coverside, the other-side coverincludes a fitting sectioninto which the fitting clawis to be inserted, the cover memberincludes an engagement holethat engages with the fitting clawin the fitting section, and the casingreceives the fitting sectionfrom the inside of the other-side coverto maintain an engaged state of the fitting clawwith the engagement hole

Fixing structure of cover on display apparatus

A disk holder springing-out prevention device is constituted by utilizing an existing loading block LB. A disk holderis restricted to an accommodated position within a magazine M by means of a stopperprovided on a holder guide rail. In general, the initial position of the loading block LB is adapted to be a raised/lowered position corresponding to the uppermost disk holderand the stopperis adapted to be superimposed in the vertical direction with an engagement projectionof a holder extracting memberwhen the holder extracting memberis in the initial position in the feed direction. In this way, positional restriction of the uppermost disk holderis effected by the holder extracting memberwhereas the stopperperforms positional restriction of the remaining disk holders. As a result, springing out of the disk holdersfrom the magazine M can be reliably prevented.

Disk holder pop-out preventing device

On a loading block LB, there are provided a wirehaving spring properties and two rollers (disk pressing sections)made of rubber that are capable of rotating about this wireas their rotary shaft. One end of the wireis coupled with a cam holeprovided in a large-diameter gear (rotary member)of the loading block LB through a linking plate (operating member)and a coupling pinprovided on this linking plate, so that the rollersare subjected to drive control between a pressing position and a release position by the operation of this cam hole. During disk feeding or clamping action, the disk D can be pressed against the disk holder DH by pressing the rollersagainst the disk D.
