Patent ID: 6996834

Claim:
A disk drive comprising: a housing having an inner space; a tray selectively received in the inner space; and an ejection apparatus having: a locking pin movably disposed on the tray; and a latch rotatably disposed on the housing, the latch having a blocking part and a guiding part, the guiding part having a first surface and a second surface, the locking pin selectively engaging with the blocking part; wherein, the locking pin engages with the blocking part limiting a movement of the tray when the tray is received in the inner space, and when the tray is pushed toward the inner space for a predetermined distance, the locking pin escapes from the blocking part and presses against the first surface forcing the latch to rotate so the locking pin is moved to the second surface, and the locking pin moves along the second surface such that the tray ejects from the inner space of the housing.
