<p>An optical disc driving apparatus requiring a fewer number of parts, simpler structure, less assembly cost, thus having a lower product price. According to the optical disc driving apparatus, a base plate (200) on which a spindle motor (211) and a pickup unit (213) are mounted is moved to optical disc loading and chucking position together with a caddy (300) by physical force exerted to the caddy (300) inserted into the deck base (100). The base plate (200) is locked by a locking means and positioned. In this situation, an information is recorded and/or reproduced on/from the optical disc. In an ejection mode, the pickup unit (213) is moved in a radial direction of the optical disc so that the base plate (200) is unlocked and is moved to the initial position. Here, the physical force is a pressing force exerted by a user. Accordingly, the optical disc driving apparatus can be compact-sized, and conveniently utilized as a caddy-type as well as a tray-type. <IMAGE></p> |
