Optic disk drive vibration absorbing device

A vibration absorbing device adapted to be used in an optic disk drive comprising an outer casing inside of which an inner casing is received to define two side channels between opposite side walls of the outer casing and between opposite side walls of the inner casing, a disk holding arm pivoted to the inner casing and extending above the inner casing to define a spacing therebetween and a disk tray comprising a flat disk holder adapted to receive and hold thereon an optic disk and two side flanges extending from the disk holder to be slidably receivable within the side channels and thereby movable between a first position where the disk tray is received within the optic disk drive and located between the disk holding arm and the inner casing and a second position where the disk tray is located outside the optic disk drive, the vibration absorbing device including a resilient member fixed to each of the side walls of the outer casing and having a contact segment located inside the respective side channel to contact and form a resilient engagement with the respective side flange of the disk tray when the disk tray is at the first position and an anchoring member provided on a rear side of the disk holding arm to contact and thus engage the disk tray when the disk tray is at the first position so that when the disk tray is at the first position, the vibration absorbing device providing a three point contact engagement with the disk tray to tightly hold the disk tray against vibration, each side flange of the disk tray having a step-like configuration, the resilient member including a C-shaped body fit over each of the side walls of the outer casing, a top extension provided on the C-shaped body to extend into the respective side channel to have the contact segment that is provided on the top extension located inside the side channel and in resilient contact engagement with the step-like configuration of the respective flange of the disk tray.
