摘要

A tray loading apparatus of an optical disc drive is provided. The tray loading apparatus includes a main frame, first rails that are installed in the main frame to guide a first tray on which a cartridge accommodating a disc is mounted so that the first tray slides into or out of the main frame, and second rails that are attachable to and detachable from the main frame and guide a second tray on which the disc is placed so that the second tray can slide into or out of the main frame. The tray loading apparatus further includes lockers that lock the second tray when the second tray is completely loaded into the main frame and disc guides that guide the outer circumference of the disc placed on the second tray. Accordingly, second rails can be separated from or coupled to a main frame to selectively load and unload a first tray on which a cartridge is mounted or a second tray on which a disc is placed.
