Abstract
A device for inserting and extracting a disk cartridge for use in a disk player, includes a locking member slidably installed on a cartridge holder for performing a locking/release function; a locking release member one end of which is rotatably installed on the deck having a center of rotation above that of the cartridge holder, so that the other end is interlocked with the cartridge holder to release a locking state of the locking member; and an extracting member being rotatably installed on the cartridge holder and having one end locked by the locking member. A lift on the extracting member lifts the locking release member. A cartridge is inserted or withdrawn from the cartridge holder when the cartridge holder and the locking release member are pivoted upward away from the deck of the player. No motor is used for insertion and withdrawal.
