Abstract
There is provided a slot-in type reproducing/recording apparatus in which a disk ,when ejected, stops at a predetermined position in front of the apparatus to be easily handled. A stop mechanism () includes an engagement pin () formed on an eject arm () and biased toward a selector plate () and the engagement recesses (E,F) formed on the selector plate () and hold the engagement pin () in a manner that the disk is held by main arms and the eject arm (). The selector plate () can move in a direction orthogonal to a disk-eject direction as the main arms open or close. Upon the ejection of the disk, the stop mechanism () stops the disk at a predetermined position in front of the apparatus so as to prevent the disk from jumping out from a slot (A).
