Abstract
Electronic equipment comprises a main body, a front panel and a recording medium receiving unit. The front panel is provided movably between an opened position and a closed position on a front side of the main body. A card-type recording medium is to be loaded or unloaded into or from the recording medium receiving unit. The recording medium receiving unit is concealed and inaccessible in case where the front panel is in the closed position. The recording medium receiving unit is displaced along with movement of the front panel so as to be exposed and accessible when the front panel moves from the closed position to the opened position.
