Abstract

See full text

An optical disk driver using a top-loading mechanism is coupled to an operational processor, such as a personal computer. The term 'a top-loading mechanism' means a mechanism for inserting and/or ejecting an optical disk via a top surface of the optical disk driver. Additionally, a display unit used for the operational processor can be located on an operational processing apparatus comprising such an optical disk driver and an operational processor. The optical disk driver includes a first case (12), accommodated in a housing (10a) having the operational processor therein, a second case (11); movable from a first position to a second position, the second case (11) projecting from the first case (12) so that an optical disk can be inserted and/or ejected via a top surface of the second case (11) when the second case being located at the first position, the second case being accommodated in the first case to be operatively connected to the operational processor when the second case (11) being located at the second position.
