Abstract
A latch assembly for releasably retaining a bottom cover against a top cover in a disk cartridge. The latch assembly is manually activatable from outside the bottom cover and includes a portion adapted to enter and releasably engage in an opening in an end of the hub accessible through an aperture in the top cover; and is mounted on the bottom cover so as to restrict radial movement of the disk assembly while being axially movable to both facilitate engaging the latch assembly with the hub, and allow axial movement of an engaged disk assembly within the top cover.
