Abstract
A plurality of switches are pressed by a single switch operating member. A disk recording and/or reproducing apparatus has a switch mechanism operable when a pair of turn arms is turned so as to be spread away from each other by a disk inserted from a disk slot. The switch mechanism includes a plurality of switches, a rotary cam rotatable in ganged relation to angular movement of the turn arms, and a switch operating lever interposed between the rotary cam and the switches for successively pressing the switches in response to rotation of the rotary cam.
