Patent ID: 7917917

Claim:
A tray ejecting mechanism comprising: a stationary bezel mounted to a front surface of an ejectable tray included in a medium drive device; and a movable bezel attached to the stationary bezel in a movable manner in a front-back direction while being biased towards a front surface of the movable bezel, the movable bezel serving as an outer housing of the medium drive device contained in an electronic apparatus, wherein the stationary bezel includes a detection component that is positionally shiftable in accordance with an open/close position of the tray, and a switch component having a pressing portion for pressing an ejection switch provided on the tray, the switch component being positionally shiftable in conjunction with the detection component, wherein the movable bezel includes a pressing rib that applies a pressing force to the pressing portion in order to press the ejection switch, wherein when the tray is closed, the switch component is positioned such that, as the movable bezel is pushed inward toward the stationary bezel, the pressing rib applies the pressing force to the pressing portion so that the pressing portion presses the ejection switch, and wherein when the tray is open, the switch component is positioned such that the ejection switch is prevented from being pressed by the pressing portion even if the movable bezel is pushed inward toward the stationary bezel.
