Disk clamp mechanism and disk device

A disk clamp mechanism comprising:

• a disk damper provided in opposition to a turntable, said disk damper having a contact surface contacting a disk on a side facing said turntable, said disk damper having a convex portion on a side opposite to said contact surface;
• a main chassis including a frame body and a disk damper holding member provided on said frame body for holding said disk damper, said frame body having a pair of opposing side walls;
• a disk damper pushing member having a pushing surface that pushes said convex portion of said disk damper toward said disk, and first and second end portions provided on both sides of said pushing surface, said first end portion being swingably supported by said main chassis, said disk damper pushing member swingably moving so as to make said pushing surface be displaced in a direction perpendicular to a surface of said disk, and
• a resilient member that urges said second end portion of said disk damper pushing member in a direction in which said pushing surface pushes said disk,
• wherein said disk damper holding member has an elongated shape, and extends between said opposing side walls of said main chassis.
