Abstract
A disk reproducing apparatus with improved quality is provided which has a clamper and a clamper plate. By providing the clamp plate with connection portions radially extending from a radially inner peripheral portion toward radially outer peripheral portion of the clamp plate, the axial displacement relative to a clamp holder can be increased as compared to that in the existing structure. Moreover, by disposing the clamper on the radially inner peripheral portion of the clamp plate so as to be elastically deformable, the spacing in clamping can be increased to a drive part.
Claims13
A disk reproducing apparatus comprising:
- a clamper which is elastically deformable and presses a disk against a turntable;
- and
- a clamp plate composed of a fixed portion fixed to a clamp holder, a contact portion, located in a central axis thereof, in contact with the clamper, and a connection portion which is elastically deformable and connects the fixed portion and the contact portion, and a pair of brackets,
- wherein the fixed portion is located radially around the central axis,
- wherein the clamp plate is supported on the clamp holder by the pair of brackets,
- wherein the fixed portion and the pair of brackets are integrally formed, and
- wherein one of the pair of brackets extends in one direction from the fixed portion and the other one of the pair of brackets extends in the opposite direction from the fixed portion.
